Elbow - What Time Do You Call This? Lyrics

What time do you call this?
What time do you call this?
What time do you call this?
What time do you call this?

What time do you call this?
I've been craving to wilder on my days
So then I'll find your face
Shining out of the crowd
Love is just a word
Great friends didn't mention
'Cause love was just a joke
So it battered me senseless

Oh, shrink with me, tall with me
Wither with me, fly with me
Endlessly, follow me,
To the open swallow me
Stay at least for now with me
Drinking, dancing now with me
Tell me when I go too far
Stay precisely where you are

Tore me out of all my lies
Hold my tickle with those eyes
Swear through every winter wall
Thread my spell and ring my all
Total respect, tender sex
Check my spare and bring my nap
Saturate me from my breath
Kiss me nearly half to death

(x2)
What time do you call this?
What time do you call this?
What time do you call this?
What time do you call this?
