Number Eleven Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Looking for your name
I sort through it all
Listening in vain
You hope for the worst
Looking for your name
Falling down shallow stairs
Waiting for the rain
Hands extended laughing out
As she claims that she's too much
I will hurt myself
As she claims that she's too much
I know I must
[Chorus]
Give it time, give it some space
All in all, back at the same place
Move away and start again
All in all, back at the same place
[Verse 2]
I'll take you at your word:
Passing with the wind and sea
Looking for your name
I sort through it all
Listening in vain
You hope for the worst
Looking for your name
Still here falling down
Waiting for the rain
Falling down over me
Looking for your name
I sort through it all
Listening in vain
You hope for the worst
Looking for your name
Falling down shallow stairs
Waiting for the rain
Hands extended laughing out
As she claims that she's too much
I will hurt myself
As she claims that she's too much
I know I must
[Chorus]
Give it time, give it some space
All in all, back at the same place
Move away and start again
All in all, back at the same place
[Verse 2]
I'll take you at your word:
Passing with the wind and sea
Looking for your name
I sort through it all
Listening in vain
You hope for the worst
Looking for your name
Still here falling down
Waiting for the rain
Falling down over me
[Chorus 2]
Give it time, give it some space
All in all, back at the same place
Move away and start again
All in all, back at the same place
[Breakdown]
So I'll say it again, say it again, say it again
So I'll say it again, say it again, say it again
So I will say it again
You won't know love without death
No death, no love
Recognize the once familiar
Recall missed steps and broken vows
Give it time, give it some space
All in all, back at the same place
Move away and start again
All in all, back at the same place
[Breakdown]
So I'll say it again, say it again, say it again
So I'll say it again, say it again, say it again
So I will say it again
You won't know love without death
No death, no love
Recognize the once familiar
Recall missed steps and broken vows
