Bloc Party - We Were Lovers lyrics

We meet inside the café The air is thick like hospital Choked by the gold on your finger We were lovers Bury the thoughts that resurface Those hands were mine And now our love has been forgotten Like it was never there We're just sitting here like strangers You gave me yourself for just a little while But it was you It was really you Staring into my coffee It is not black, just a shade of brown Too scared to let our eyes meet What will we see? And now our love has been forgotten Like it was never there We're just sitting here like strangers You gave me yourself for just a little while But it was you It was really you The space between us Will not be beat Oceans and past lives We were lovers
