Lyrics Paraíso - Bloc Party

It was a look that I understood
In another life, maybe I would have been yours
Pictured in white standing by the bar
Like a wrecking ball, like a Japanese weight
It makes the waters rise in me

How'd you do that thing you do?
This beautiful charmer could be deceiver too
It's making me do things I mustn't do
My appetite for love is now a hunger thirst

Whoever you are

Oh, we spoke of Lagos and Rotterdam
Dancing cheek to cheek, get behind me, Satan
And all my good will is coming loose
Like a ball of yarn, like a bad excuse
It makes the embers glow in me, it's your mood

How'd you do that thing you do?
This beautiful charmer could be deceiver too
It's making me do things I mustn't do
My appetite for love is now a hunger thirst

Whoever you are
Whoever you are

I don't believe in coincidence, you were sent this way for me
For it takes two to stop this dance, let us find a quiet place to sit
If tonight is all, let me gaze upon your lashes
Let it be known that I gave myself completely over

A paraíso
A paraíso
