HOT CHIP LYRICS - One Life Stand

"One Life Stand"



Tell me where you've been to

Nowhere that you shouldn't do

Tell me what you're good for

I can tell you something too

Where have you been staying?

Tell me what you're playing

Hope it's not my conscience

But it keeps complaining



Didn't meet you in an alley

The cats they weren't complaining

I met you in the daylight

Our visions misbehaving

I offer you my temper

With the hope that you would tame me

We built ourselves a shelter

You will always be my baby



Feeling, keep on feeling, keep on feeling



I only wanna be your one life stand (Keep on feeling)

Tell me do you stand by your man? (Keep on feeling)

I only wanna be your one life stand (Keep on feeling)

Tell me do you stand by your man? (Keep on feeling)



Wishes keep remaining

Nothing worth containing

A balloon with air is escaping

Is nothing but a plaything

Moments keep us guessing

And lead us from temptation

But better to embrace them

And measure our elation



I only wanna be your one life stand (Keep on feeling)

Tell me do you stand by your man? (Keep on feeling)

I only wanna be your one life stand (Keep on feeling)

Tell me do you stand by your man? (Keep on feeling)

(Could this be, could this be?)

I only wanna be your one life stand (Keep on feeling)

(Could this be, could this be?)

Tell me do you stand by your man? (Keep on feeling)

(Could this be, could this be?)

I only wanna be your one life stand (Keep on feeling)

(Could this be, could this be?)

Tell me do you stand by your man? (Keep on feeling)
