Lonely World

The Vaccines · Come of Age [2012]

I knew who you were

It was perfectly obvious

I was uncomfortable playing it cool

But I feel like I have always known you



I can look close and I thought you would question it

Young in the night when we stared at the rest of the good for nay...

Oh my god



I will hold you close

Because it is a lonely world

But would you want me to?

'Cause it is a lonely world



Well I put it off 'cause I'm painfully diffident

I played it out in my head from afar

but they trust me to convince my mother

You disappeared to my dissatisfaction

Oh, what could I have been if I had more time?

Oh, what is me?

Oh my god



I will hold you close

'Cause it is a lonely world

But would you want me to?

'Cause it is a lonely world



Yeah, I would hold you close

'Cause it is a lonely world

If I was confident

'Cause it is a lonely world



Yeah, I would hold you close

'Cause it is a lonely world

But would you want me to?

'Cause it is a lonely world



Yeah, I would hold you close

'Cause it is a lonely world

If I was confident

'Cause it is a lonely world
