lyrics

You are reading into this too much. Can’t you see that the sun is shining?
If the seaside is not enough, how will you ever know how to be happy?
You shouldn’t need me to point it out– it’s all right in front of your face
All the beautiful things out there and everything that

Everything that holds you here
Everything that you hold dear

Is it really all that strange? You’re so surprised at the way a heart can change
But for all the things you are you’ve never been consistent from the start
So don’t take me for granted I can only take so much of this
There’s so many beautiful things out there. They are the things that

Everything that holds you here
Everything that we hold dear
I don’t make the rules for you. You tow your own line
Do whatever your heart tells you too but listen to mine
It’s singing out loud and clear– you are the thing that
The only thing that holds me here
The only thing that I hold dear.

Hold me here

TANGO

Good tunes with feelings and actual content, delivered through a lovely, soft-haze production. Always been a fan but with this record they really got my heart. Also- it's good to run to! Anna Coddington
