BETTER THAN EZRA LYRICS - Under You

"Under You"



Along the edges colors blur, it seems familiar

While you read your magazine

I was counting all the markers



And California seemed to draw you like a siren

From a postcard

In a letter

Or a frame of film melting



Under you, I feel your breath move in and out slowly

Under you, let go completely feeling you take over me

Take over me



A Hollywood flat where we'd laugh about our fortunes

Where we held jobs in this bar down at 3rd and San Vicente

And Ramen Noodles at 4:30 in the morning,

Where we barely could survive, I was never more alive



Under you, I feel your blood flowing out slowly

Under you, let go completely feeling you take over me

Take over me



You moved in slow degrees

A sudden memory

You're a Leonard Cohen song



But every now and then I'd swear

I see you standing

On a sidewalk,

In a restaurant,

From a taxi passing by



Under you, I feel your breath move in, out slowly

Under you, let go completely, feeling you take over me



Take over me...
