The Pull of You lyrics

[Verse 1: Lisa Hannigan and Matt Berninger]

Something's leaving me behind

It's just a feeling in my mind

What was it you always said?

We're connected by a thread

If we're ever far apart

I'll still feel the pull of you

[Interlude: Matt Berninger]

I know, I get it

I'm either at the bottom of a well or spinning into somebody's outdoor glass furniture

Is this how I lose it? Everything at once? Carried to space by a dolphin balloon?

Whatever magical thinking you need to hang around your neck, right?

Maybe we'll end up the ones eating chocolate chip pancakes next to a charity swimming pool

The next time I see you will probably be in some pool or upscale tropical funeral

I dream that's what Nina Simone said to her lover John when he left

[Chorus: Matt Berninger]

Maybe we'll talk it out inside a car

With rain falling around us

We all know this rain is hard to take

I know I can get attached and then unattached

To my own versions of others

My view of you comes back and drops away

[Interlude]

It's just that I’m still here and there's still everything you don't know

Oh, how often I dream about you

You don't know how I need you

You got me all wrong

If I said I was sorry for always being underwater, would you stay?

You can take me

There's no difference between you and me

Tell me what you would say if I said that to you

I get you, you're not like anything. Do you hear me? Just be here

Don't let me get in the way of you finding everything

What was it? The story you told me?

Why am I so hard to be around?

Here at the approach of the end of everything

[Bridge: Matt Berninger and Lisa Hannigan]

Sometimes I don't think I'm really around here half the time

Sometimes I don't think I'm really around here at all

Sometimes I don't think I'm really around here half the time

Sometimes I don't think I'm really around here at all

[Outro: Matt Berninger and Lisa Hannigan]

Something's leaving me behind

It's just a feeling in my mind

What was is it you always said?

We're connected by a thread

If we ever get far apart

I'll still feel the pull of you
