Lyric Hold me close (Underground)
There s something very English about forever
Hugs and kisses are English too
Forever and a day has to be American
But hold me close is me and you
Hold me close is me and you
So pilots do it in the air
And surfers do it wave after wave
But soon they ll be looking limp and lifeless
We ll still be at it in our grave
Chorus
Hold me close, underground
Hold me close, underground
I ll be there, I ll wait for you
In with the old, out with the new
Man and wife just doesn t suit us
Just us two is hardly true
I couldn t care about Mr and Mrs
But you and I is me and you
You and I is me and you
Potholers do it with the lights off
Hikers do it long and slow
I ll still be trying to get your clothes off
When I lie 6ft below
Chorus
I ll be there, I ll wait for you
Hold me close, underground
In with the old, out with the new
Hold me close, underground
When it s turned to overbearing
You and I will still be here
Hugs and kisses are English too
Forever and a day has to be American
But hold me close is me and you
Hold me close is me and you
So pilots do it in the air
And surfers do it wave after wave
But soon they ll be looking limp and lifeless
We ll still be at it in our grave
Chorus
Hold me close, underground
Hold me close, underground
I ll be there, I ll wait for you
In with the old, out with the new
Man and wife just doesn t suit us
Just us two is hardly true
I couldn t care about Mr and Mrs
But you and I is me and you
You and I is me and you
Potholers do it with the lights off
Hikers do it long and slow
I ll still be trying to get your clothes off
When I lie 6ft below
Chorus
I ll be there, I ll wait for you
Hold me close, underground
In with the old, out with the new
Hold me close, underground
When it s turned to overbearing
You and I will still be here
