Touch and Go

[Verse 1]

We stepped out in the shatter light

And I watched as we blew away

Through a sea of seats

And the tangled-up streets

And the cities in a grey-blue haze

In the catalogue

All the places fold in

Underneath a daylight moon

Grey eyes, brown eyes, mad nights, red skies

Well I keep them in a jumble room

So while I am the one who waits here

[Chorus]

We all know that it's all such a game of

Touch and Go

Let's play at Touch and Go

I'm waking up in the moving windows

Going out to play the game of

Touch And Go

'Cause it's all so touch and go

Woah-oh

[Verse 2]

The summer boy in his dark-blue shirt

Getting letters from Tokyo

And we're sitting in a shaky lake

Or gliding over to a girl with a broken nose

There's motorway sparks

And meetings in the park

And fires from years ago

You can watch your friends

Through this tiny lens

Then you'll know that there's no way home

So while I am the one who waits here

[Chorus]

We all know that it's all such a game of

Touch And Go

Let's play at Touch and Go

Waking up in the moving windows

Going out again to play the game of

Touch and Go

'Cause it's all so touch and go

[Bridge]

Let's go

Touch, go

Touch and Go

Touch and Go

Touch, go

Touch and Go

Touch and Go

Uh-oh

[Verse 3]

Now it's springtime

On the moving stairway

Time to start again

And I'm wondering vaguely just whose face this is

And could we ever be friends?

Outside now it's so huge and blue

And the city windows start to glow

And the tides are soft as we're casting off

As the summer starts to show

So while I am the one who waits here

[Chorus]

Where I like to play the game of

Touch and Go

Let's play at Touch and Go

I'm waking up in the moving windows

Going out again to play the games of

Touch And Go

'Cause it's all so touch and go

So let's go
