Badly Drawn Boy - Once Around The Block

Badly Drawn Boy - Once Around The Block
Listen now on “The Hour of Bewilderbeast”: hyperurl.co/BDB...
Lyrics:
You quiver like a candle on fire
I'm putting you out
Maybe tonight we could be the last shout
But I'm fascinated by your style
Your beauty will last for a while
You're feeling instead of being
The more that I live on the inside
There's nothing to give
I'm infatuated by your moves
I'm got to search out for your clues
I want to repair your desire
And call it a gift that I stole from
just wanting to live
Now I see the vision through your eyes
Your innocence no longer fuels surprise
Trying to outrun your fear
Your running to lose, heart on your sleeve
And your soul in your shoes
Take a left, a sharp left
And another left, meet me on the corner
And we'll start again

“You quiver like a candle on a fire, I’m putting you out maybe tonight we could be the last shout and I’m fascinated by your style, your beauty will last for a while” guy is one HELL of a lyricist.

About a decade ago I was dating a girl who'll remain nameless. I was besotted with her and each time we met, she left me feeling either great or awful. In either case, driving home, this song cleansed my soul.

[@adamwilliams3856]

Nice

[@bevdacutie]

I used to be obsessed with this song. Glad i found it again

[@br0k3nh3d9]

[@bigrips7734]

[@skymanifest8339]

His second album is also really underrated.

[@kerrysgold1]

Beautiful chooone🎉🎉

[@ionlytalkaboutbass]

This whole album was solid and I played the hell out of it. Good memories.

[@blueabattoir]

I think you meant to say “is” instead of “was”.

[@playthroughcinema]

this song man I heard it playing in shops on the radio etc in early 2000s as a kid and it really killed me because I didnt know the artist or the song name then the internet came along and I began searching lyrics like ba da da baaa lol... it honestly took me about 15 years before I found this. It's absolutely one of my fav songs. The joy on my face when I finally found it... I was so happy. I dont know if you read youtube comments damon but this really is legendary thank you.

Such an underrated artist

[@panobe0388]

Definitely

[@Alex-mj5dv]

Not sure he’s underrated! Opened for beck when I saw him at Brixton, and that’s high praise indeed. And let’s not forget he made About A Boy what it was really with that soundtrack album

[@ynidna]

Best song ever so warm and comforting
