Interpol › Lyrics › Take You on a Cruise

I'm timeless like a broken watch
I make money like Fred Astaire
I see that you've come to resist me, I'm a pitbull in time
The pretense is not what restricts me, it's the circles inside

The anatomy of kisses and a teacher who tries
Who knows how we'll disappear
Would you like to be my missus and in future with child?
You know that we can't get back from here but we can get away

Baby don't you try to find me
Baby don't you try to fight
Baby don't you try to find me
Baby, it will be alright

Along the way, tears drown in the wake of delight
There's nothing like this built today
You'll never see a finer ship in your life
We sail today, tears drown in the wake of delight
There's nothing like this built today
You'll never see a finer ship or receive a better tip in your life

I am the scavenger between the sheets of union
Lately I can't tell for sure whether machines turn anyone
I am the scavenger between the sheets of union
Lately I can't tell for sure if the machines turn anyone

Lady don't you try to find me
Lady there is no need to fight
Lady don't you try to find me
Baby it will be alright

We sail today, tears will drown in the wake of delight
There's nothing like this built today
You'll never see a finer ship in your life
Along the way, the sea will crowd us with lovers at night
There's nothing like this built today
You'll never see a finer ship or receive a better tip in your life

I see that you've come to resist me, I'm a pitbull in time

White goddess, red goddess
Black temptress of the sea, you treat me right
Black goddess, red goddess
White temptress of the sea, you treat me right

Black goddess, red goddess
White temptress of the sea, you treat me right
Black goddess, red goddess
White temptress of the sea, you treat me right
