Lyrics

Come up to meet you, at tell you I’m sor ry, you don’t know how love ly you are.

I had to find you, tell you I need you, that tell you I’ll set you a part.

Tell me your se crets and ask me your ques tions, oh, let’s go back to the start.

Run ning in cir cles, com ing up tails,

heads on a si lence a part.

No bod y said it was eas y,

it’s such a shame for us to part.

No bod y said it was eas y,

no one ev er (C)said it would (Dm7)be this hard.

Oh, take me back to the start.

I was just guess ing at num bers and fig ures, you pull ing your puz zles a part.

Ques tions of sci ence, sci ence and prog ress that must speak as loud as my heart.

Tell me you love me, and come back and haunt me, oh, and I rush to the start.

Run ning in cir cles, chas ing our tails,

heads com ing back as we are.

No bod y said it was eas y,

it’s such a shame for us to part.

No bod y said it was eas y,

no one ev er (C)said it would (Dm7)be so hard.

Oh, take me back to the start.

I’m go ing back to the start.

Ah, ooh.

Ah, ooh.

Ah, ooh.

Ah, ooh.
