![]() Love Box (2002) [ larger cover art ] |
Close your eyes and lose the feeling that's been sinking
Close your eyes and count to three
Close your eyes, rewind, I know just what you're thinking
Close your eyes and think of me
Larger than life, niceties, bigger than you, more than me
I've got the Monday morning blues and, oh my God, I've got the home for you
And give the everyday morning you use
There's things right here I can't afford to choose
Close your eyes and lose the feeling that's been sinking
Close your eyes and count to three
Close your eyes, rewind, I know just what you're thinking
Close your eyes and think of me
Sincere, caramel, champagne, down drain, tell him, no gain
It's so damn physical it will sustain and too damn Technicolor to refrain
And much too taxing for my little brain
Why do we never know enough of happy ends? Why do they never show?
All the times that we have been so good at caring, how many times we'll never know
Close your eyes and lose the feeling that's been sinking
Close your eyes and count to three
Close your eyes, rewind, I know that you've been thinking
Close your eyes and think of me
Close your eyes and lose the feeling that's been sinking
Close your eyes and count to three
Close your eyes, rewind, I know just what you're thinking
Close your eyes and think of me
Packed it like a punch, out to lunch
I got a little hunch that stood out from the bunch
As if that's not enough, I even knew the reason why
That God damn bitch of life, she made me cry
So I'd like to poke her squarely in the eye
And it hurt so much I feel like I could die, yeah

I was going to say "vapid," but "weenie" will do fine -- though I rather like her voice.die - why - publish such weenie lyrics? |

Crazy, I love her voice. Neneh Cherry has an awesome voice, at least that's what I think. |

| rayban (Living in Bill Spooners Garage....don't tell him) | Posted: Aug 21, 2005 - 17:14 Not the best Groove Armada but still decent. A better CD is the Armada's "Vertigo" |

I think this is fake vinyl noise intentionally mixed into the song. Must be the 'groove' in 'Groove Armada' |
| Berthold | Posted: May 10, 2005 - 12:32 For the first few seconds, I thought this was David Gray's 'The Other Side'... |
| Shesdifferent (Just visiting this planet) | Posted: Apr 25, 2005 - 21:35 Not bad |

8O Ugh. Leave Nelly out of this -- it's good just as it is. |

| skokanjd (Everett, WA) | Posted: May 28, 2004 - 12:31 I had to log in just rate this song a 2...Lyrics written by someone as if they had an 8th grade education level drive me up a wall. Too bad because I liked the music... Buy a keyboard and toss together some cliches, you too can make music. |
| ladyj (Owosso, Mi) | Posted: May 28, 2004 - 12:25 what is this.......I like it! |
| MarkStrube (Wisconsin, USA) | Posted: Feb 08, 2004 - 02:20 Must say I love Groove Armada, mainly their slower stuff, and this one is no exception. |
| britrock (Nottingham, UK) | Posted: Jan 28, 2004 - 14:47 Great - like it - sounds very classy!! One more for the shopping list. |
| kcarr224 (Cary, NC) | Posted: Oct 07, 2003 - 10:56 This is the first track I heard with Neneh Cherry in a very long time. I really like her voice. |
| muffles (Woerden) | Posted: Oct 07, 2003 - 10:53 Cool song :) |
| mrmonkey (Ottawa) | Posted: Oct 07, 2003 - 10:53 I agree! |
| NYY96 (Fair Lawn, New Jersey) | Posted: Oct 07, 2003 - 10:52 Lyrics could be better, but quite likeable - 7 |

Umm, interesting lyrics...
