Elbow - Asleep in the Back Lyrics

Artist: Elbow

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Pop

  • Songwriters: Guy Edward John Garvey, Richard Barry Jupp, Craig Lee Potter, Mark Potter, Peter James Turner

Were you crushed?
Did I rush you?

All my time is yours my twisted heart is yours
The faithless shit is yours, the shameless fits of love
That only smother you for moments
'Til I fold them up and leave, all yours

Oh you had to ask, didn't you?
Oh you had to ask, didn't you?
Oh you had to know

Oh you had to ask, didn't you?
Oh you had to ask, didn't you?
Oh you had to know

Show your scars
Not to rush you

The hieroglyphic hints in all the toilet scrawl
Guilty little pins in all the things I never talk about
Are spilling with the gin
Taste how tough you are, all yours

Oh you had to ask, didn't you?
Oh you had to ask, didn't you?
Oh you had to know

Oh you had to ask, didn't you?
Oh you had to ask, didn't you?
Oh you had to know

Not to rush you
