Lyrics for Modern Soul

I know a crossroads where I see him, see them I want it to be over, I want it to be over So I swim to you while I'm sleeping Through sage green rivers of England I see the scenery changes, changes I want it to be over, I want it to be over When I don't think of you, the willpower What I didn't see was I was talking to so many people at once I had no idea I was I had no idea of the difference between The way I saw your face and the way it was Because of a few songs Because of a few songs Because of a few songs Because of a few songs Because of a few songs Because of a few songs Because of a few songs Because of a few songs I remember laughing To take that away from you To take that away from you I remember laughing I remember laughing To take that away from you To take that away from you I remember laughing The smaller the waves You let me down No longer I will defend you The smaller the waves You let me down No longer I will defend you I want it to be over, I want it to be over I want it to be over, I want it to be over I want it to be over, I want it to be over I know a crossroads where I see him, see him I want it to be over, I want it to be over I want it to be over, I want it to be over I want it to be over, I want it to be over
