You Probably Could'nt See For The Lights But You Were Staring At Me Songtext
von Arctic Monkeys

One look sends it coursing through the veins
Oh, how the feeling races
Back up to their brains
To form expressions on their stupid faces

They don′t want to say hello
Like I want to say hello
Well, my heartbeat's at its peak
When you′re coming up to speak

And, oh, I'm so tense, never tenser
Could all go a bit Frank Spencer
And I'm talking gibberish
Tip of the tongue but I can′t deliver it
Properly, oh, it′s all getting on top of me
And if it weren't this dark, you′d see how red my face has gone, yeah


Everybody's trying to crack the jokes
And that to make you smile
Those that claim that they′re not showing off
Are drowning in denial

But they're not half as bad as me
Say anything and I′ll agree
'Cause when it comes to acting up
I'm sure I could write the book

And now that you′re more than a part in the play
It′s slightly easier to think what to say
You had us all standing on our heads
Doing our best tricks, yeah

Never again
Well, never again, no
Will there be another one
Quite as desirable as you

One look sends it coursing through the veins
Oh, how the feeling races
Back up to their brains
To form expressions on their stupid faces
