Lyrics

Saw your photo
Your portfolio
Yes your resume
Is so wonderful
From a distance
You look good to know
From a distance
From a long way off

If you don’t touch me then I won’t touch you
If your favourite’s green then my colour’s blue
Like the endless sea we can’t get through 
In the shallows
In the sands below

Then you disappeared
When I got you home
Was a stranger there
You went missing, oh
You went missing, oh
I was all alone
All alone

If you don’t touch me then I won’t touch you
If your number’s three then I’ll make mine two
It’ll all add up if you want it to
If you say so

And we both let go
If you say so
And we both let go
If we both let go
We’ll be all alone
All alone
Be all alone

I won’t touch you if you don’t touch me (x4)
