  • All we want is to feel that feeling again
    Just a drop on the lips and we're more than equipped
    There is some thirst that's gotta be quenched, yeah
    All we want is to feel that feeling again
    We didn't reach a high it was always inside
    We just coaxed it from the place it would hide.

    We move in fear, we move in desire
    Now I know how you feel.
    I'm a pilgrim, you're the shrine to
    All the lovers that loved before us
    And breathed in this ether.
    Where the body goes the mind will follow soon after.

    Cause all we want is to know the vivid moment
    Yeah, how we feel now was felt by the ancients
    Yeah, all we want is to know the vivid moment
    Just surrender your limbs to my every whim
    Now we're lovers, we are cartwheeling.

    We move in fear, we move in desire
    Now I know how you feel.
    I'm a pilgrim, you're the shrine to
    All the lovers that loved before us
    And breathed in this ether.
    Where the body goes the mind will follow soon after.

    We've a Mecca now, weave a Mecca now, no less
    To hold the other end of the thread. Hold on-

    We move in fear, we move in desire
    Now I know how you feel.
    I'm a pilgrim, you're the shrine to
    All the lovers that loved before us
    And breathed in this ether.
    Where the body goes the mind will follow soon after.

    'Cause, all we want is to feel that feeling again,
    Yeah, all we want is to feel that feeling again. Writer/s: Ben Little, Christopher Robert Talbot, Hayden Norman Thorpe, Thomas William Fleming
