BADLY DRAWN BOY LYRICS - Degrees of Separation

"Degrees of Separation"



We figure out the past through photographs

They took while we were young

Even though there's no way out, we'll find one

We're the love-struck ones

The degrees of separation close in

Look who just walked in



A finger on the pulse is not enough

To show who's wrong from right

You know it's gonna be a long drive

Not an easy ride

The degrees of separation close in

Look who just walked in



Leave the lights on

If you're the last one alive

There's too many strangers on this long

Lonely drive

I'll be by your side

Believe me



Now, no-one knows the year

You're from the past

You look like you're alive

You know it's gonna be a long drive

Not an easy ride

The degrees of separation close in

Look who just walked in



I kept the photograph upon the dash

It helped me realise

That it didn't have to be a long drive

But an easy ride

The degrees of separation close in

We're alone again



Leave the lights on

If you're the last one alive
