lyrics

You could never live without me, baby. I own everything in our flat that you need. I know you think it’d be fun to be alone and ‘see what happens’, but you could never live without me, you’d see.

It’s unromantic to say necessity is what keeps us together. (I) don’t want a perfect display. (I) don’t wanna advertise our affection, so I say:

You could never live without me, baby. I own everything in our flat that you need. I know you think it’d be fun to be alone and ‘see what happens’, but you could never live without me, you’d see.

Gotta hide our affection (you see), make it out like it’s blind intention. Don’t wanna perfect display. Don’t wanna advertise our affection, so I say: I think you need me. I don’t care if it’s unromantic!

You could never live without me, baby. I own everything in our flat that you need. I know you think it’d be fun to be alone and ‘see what happens’, but you could never live without me, you’d see.

The bands sound is gleefully completed by drummer, Nick Kennedy and producer Liam. ... more
