Show Me Everything Songtext
von Tindersticks

(Show me, show me)
(Show me, show me)

Complexities, treacheries
We watch through glass
We see nothing
Latex on my fingertips
We touch through glass
We feel nothing
All we′ve carried, all we've owned
Scattered like stones

(Show me, show me)

All the mess, all the wrong turns
We could take these stones, we could build something
We could try forever
To try and see
And survive alone

You show me everything (show me, show me)
You show me everything (show me, show me)
I can′t afford


So many new moons, to pull us around
So many new stars to guide us
So, what do you say?

You show me everything thing you can't afford
Back together, separate
Take these stones, build something
Define the wall, decorate
Our mouths on the glass
We believe we taste

Everything we could have had
Everything that belongs to us (show me, show me)
Words said in anger, and grief
Take these stones, throw something (you'll never find a way to save me)
We could celebrate, we could drop the bomb
And it makes no odds, whatever side you′re on
Stuck again, hesitate
The glass that holds the very air we breathe

And you, you show me everything I can′t afford
Yeah, you
You show me everything (show me, show me)
(Show me, show me)


(Show me, show me)
(Show me, show me)
(Show me, show me)
