BLOC PARTY
- Signs Lyrics / with translationsTwo ravens in the old oak tree
And one for you and one for me
And bluebells in the late December
I see signs now all the time
The last time we slept together
There was something that was not there
You never wanted to alarm me
But I?m the one that?s drowning now
I can sleep forever these days
'Cause in my dreams I see you again
But this time fleshed out fuller faced
In your confirmation dress
It was so like you to visit me
To let me know you were okay
It was so like you to visit me
You always worried about someone else
At your funeral I was so upset
So, so upset
In your life you were larger than this
Statue statuesque
I see signs now all the time
That you?re not dead, you're sleeping
I believe in anything
That brings you back home to me
I see signs now all the time
That you?re not dead, you're sleeping
I believe in anything
That brings you back home to me
And one for you and one for me
And bluebells in the late December
I see signs now all the time
The last time we slept together
There was something that was not there
You never wanted to alarm me
But I?m the one that?s drowning now
I can sleep forever these days
'Cause in my dreams I see you again
But this time fleshed out fuller faced
In your confirmation dress
It was so like you to visit me
To let me know you were okay
You always worried about someone else
At your funeral I was so upset
So, so upset
In your life you were larger than this
Statue statuesque
I see signs now all the time
That you?re not dead, you're sleeping
I believe in anything
That brings you back home to me
I see signs now all the time
That you?re not dead, you're sleeping
I believe in anything
That brings you back home to me
