Lyrics Surface - Bonobo, Nicole Miglis

Surface

Lately I’ve been paper-thin
So, why can’t I fly?
Why can’t I move with the wind on a whim?
I saw a side of you I never knew
But were we ever near enough?
And all we have to do is talk it through
But words are never good enough
They only get in your way
Paper-thin paper weight
Are we close enough?
We’re close enough
See the surface
I can make it up
Might not be perfect
But I can make it up, I can make it up
I can make it up, I can make it up
I can make it up, I can make it up
I can make it up, but can I make it up?
But what’d you want to hear?
I’m crystal clear
But you were never clear enough
And if it were two-way, it’s hard to say
'Cause words are never good enough
They only get in your way
Paper-thin paper weight
Are we close enough?
We’re close enough
See the surface
I can make it up
Might not be perfect
But I can make it up, I can make it up (See the surface)
I can make it up, I can make it up
I can make it up, I can make it up (Might not be perfect)
I can make it up, but can I make it up?
I can make it up
I can make it up, I can make it up
I can make it up, I can make it up
I can make it up, I can make it up
I can make it up, I can make it up
They only get in your way
Paper-thin paper weight
Are we close enough?
I can make it up, I can make it up
I can make it up, I can make it up
I can make it up, I can make it up
Can I make it up?
I can make it up
They only get in your way
Paper-thin paper weight
Are we close enough?
See the surface
See the surface
See the surface
