Number One
Number One - Slow Club
I looked up and all I could see was mist
Who needs course
When you're perfectly a drift
I've got a friend who knows just how it is
We walked awhile and watched the sun arrive
Drinking and planning
Hey you know where time
You wanna sing I'm here just like tonight
Golden storm put that hurricane away
I wasn't flattered when you named it after me
I wanna lay down almost constantly
Cause I know
Just how to look the other way
It was so much easier yesterday
When the door was open and
We're just running forward
Come on let's close it
And I'll call you number one
Number one
Number one
You read in books about
How it all should work
Written by men who've never seen the world
Or a garden coming to colour and that
Northwest town
Where the streets are overrun
Punk Rock kids do
What they've always done
Time can stop I was the lucky one
Blue blood runs out into the street
T V shows rewarding treachery
I'm watching now and
I will be the same time next week
Just learn how to look away
I wanna understand yesterday
When the door was open and
We're just running forward
Come on let's close it
And I'll call you number one
Number one
Number one
Number one
Don't let him run a race
Come out of your hiding place
Ooh
I look into your eyes
But don't know how they work
Desire is power and trust is just a word
Remember when we met
I was young and you werehurt
Maybe we should
Talk about what's at stake
You don't have to
Feel like **** and say it's O K
Or pretend to be asleep
While you're dreaming of being awake
