lyrics

She's painted her words in aubergine again
She's wearing velvet on a Monday
Just because she can
And she says that life is fleeting
It slips like dust from your hands
So while your heart's still beating
Give love a chance

Whoooaaaa
whoooaaaa
Whoooooa
whooooa
And it's all the same to you
Do I push?
Do I pull?
And it's all the same to you
Do I push?
Do I pull?

She's calling the man in the moon her best friend
She's watching the tides as they go out and in
And she says that life is fleeting
It slips like dust through your hands
So while your heart's still beating
Give love a chance

Whoooa
Whoooa
Oooh ooooh oooh
Do you push?
Do you pull?
Oohhoohhooohoohhh
Do you push?
Do you pull?
Ooohh oooh

And it's all the same
And it's all the same
It's always insane with you
And it's all the same
Well maybe I'm to blame
I don't wanna see the truth

Whooa
Whoooa
Ooh ohh ooh ooh
Whoooaaa

And it's all the same
And it's all the same
It's always insane with you
And it's all the same
Well maybe I'm to blame
Don't wanna be a fool

She's painted her words in aubergine again
