  • She is not like anyone
    Would be worth waiting for
    When first laid eyes upon
    Then words come easy
    Fulsome, pleasing
    Straight from the heart
    No more backs turning
    Won't surrender to
    Voices taunting me

    How come some people never get thirsty? (Ah)

    Should we get up or down?
    Be wild-eyed in the crowd
    As the greyhounds leapt ahead
    When love comes early
    Handsome, burly
    Looks you in the eye
    I saw a sea burning
    And the earth linger
    In a timeless dream

    How come some people never get thirsty? (Ah)

    Well, don't dilly dally, don't delay
    Don't dilly dally, just decide
    Don't dilly dally, don't delay
    Don't dilly dally, seize the night
    Don't delay, don't dilly dally
    MIA, don't delay

    We are more than what is spoken
    Let the silence be unbroken
    There are mountains of resistance
    They are melting all that distance

    It's 3 in the morning and we're hitting the sack
    And nothing could last but it's lovely to have you back
    Blow out the candles and you fade to black
    Blow out the candles and you fade to black Writer/s: Elroy Finn, Neil Finn
