Settle Down

The 1975 · The 1975 [2013]

A soft sound

To the way she wears her hair down

Covering up her face

And oh, what a let down

And I don't seem to be having any effect now

Fallin' all over the place



You're losing your words

We're speaking in bodies

Avoiding me and talkin' about you

You're losing your turn

I guess I'll never learn

'Cause I stay another hour or two



For crying out loud, settle down!

You know I can't be found with you

We get back to my house

Your hands, my mouth

Now I just stop myself around you



A small town

Dictating all the people we get around

What a familiar face

Do you get what I mean now?

I'm so fixated on the girl with the soft sound

And hair all over the place



And you're sure that I'd learn

I'm pushing through bodies

Avoiding me and walking around you

And you're cold and I burn

I guess I'll never learn

'Cause I stay another hour or two



For crying out loud, settle down!

You know I can't be found with you (you)

We get back to my house

Your hands, my mouth

Now I just stop myself around you



A soft sound

To the way she wears her hair down

Covering up her face

And oh, what a let down

I don't seem to be having any effect now

Fallin' all over the place



You're losing your words

We're speaking in bodies

Avoiding me and talkin' about you

And you're losing your turn

I guess I'll never learn

'Cause I stay another hour or two



For crying out loud, settle down!

You know I can't be found with you (you)

We get back to my house

Your hands, my mouth

Now I just stop myself around you ('round you)

For crying out loud!
