Long Flight Lyrics


I got back from a long flight,
You said you'd meet me there,
I've been tripping off constellations and stars.
I found you at home, what was our home,
With another man, oh man.
Been keeping you in my heart.And so I whispered into your ear,
"What are you thinking about?"
You just looked up at the starsAnd so I whispered into your ear,
"Who are you thinking about?"
It couldn't be meYou can't look me in my eyes anymore,
Without the rivers to tend.
Because you remember our love was true,
But you just needed a hand,And you can't look me in my eyes anymore,
Without yourself to defend.
You know you hurt me so bad,
Just 'cause you needed a hand.And I went off and saw things I've never seen,
I really wanted you there.
But you ruined what was love

Just 'cause you needed a handThis is the way that it all falls.
This is how I feel,
This is what I need:
You, by me--right here--by me,
Right now.And so I whispered into your ear,
"What are you thinking about?"
You just looked up at the starsAnd so I whispered into your ear,
"Who are you thinking about?"
It couldn't be meYou can't look me in my eyes anymore,
Without the rivers to tend,
'Cause you remember our love was true,
But you just needed a hand.And you can't look me in my eyes anymore,
Without yourself to defend.
You know you hurt me so bad,
Just 'cause you needed a hand.And I went off and saw things I've never seen,
I really wanted you there.
But you ruined what was love,
Just 'cause you needed a handJust 'cause you needed a hand.

Their sound has been described as "terse yet passionate music wrought from a stripped back palette," where "Gerrit Welmers' synthesizer melodies tumble across the austere wilderness of William Cashion's post-punk bass pulse, driven ever forward by ecstatic electronic rhythms".
