In Another World (You Would’ve Found Yourself by Now) Songtext
von Maxïmo Park

You′re looking so pleased with yourself.
I'm gonna come over there and wipe that smile off your face.
Petty crimes in your leisure time
You struggled to break out.
Wash away on your cheap mistakes.
Your abstinence; your drought.

In another world you would′ve found me by now.
But you'll still end up on a revolving dance floor in the middle of the river.


Come over here, my dear.
I need to have a little word in your ear.
You're your mother′s girl
And you should know that by now.
All the other girls live their lives
Without self-doubt.

In another world you would′ve found me by now.
But you'll still end up on a revolving dance floor in the middle of the river.

I′ve been hiding from you
Though we inhabit the same room.
I've been shying from you
Though we′re under the same roof.

You're looking so pleased with yourself.
I′m gonna come over there and wipe that smile off your face.

In another world you would've found me by now.
But you'll still end up on a revolving dance floor in the middle of the river.


In another world you would′ve found yourself by now.
If you weren′t so proud I would have given up by now
With another girl I'd be floundering by now
In another world
