Lyrics

Sisyphus

If you ever let go, my friend
We will have to start again
I believed in God that far ago
Take it slow

If you ever let go, my friend
We will have to start again
I believed in God that far ago
Take it slow

If you ever let go, my friend
We will have to start again
I believed in God that far ago
Take it slow

Take me higher, not to sea
There's a line that you must go
And it exists somewhere between
What you say and what you mold

If you ever let go, my friend
We will have to start again
I believed in God that far ago
Take it slow

Are you getting higher after all?
Keep on going on, keep on going oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Are you getting higher after all?
Keep on going on, keep on going oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

As you reached midday, you'll have the roll away
As you reached midday, I'll watch you roll away

If you ever let go, my friend
Heaven will never be the same
It doesn't even matter
Play the land
Take my hand

Take me higher, not to sea
There's a line that you must go
And it exists somewhere between
What you say and what you mold

If you ever let go
Are you getting higher after all? (We will have to start again)

Keep on going on, keep on going oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Are you getting higher after all? (We will have to start again)
Keep on going on, keep on going oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

As you reached midday, you'll have the roll away
As you reached midday, I'll watch you roll away

If you ever let go

    He’s already been part of one wildly successful British band, but now Ed Nash is stepping out on his own.
