Damien Rice – Volcano

Don’t hold yourself like that

You’ll hurt your knees

I kissed your mouth, and back

And that’s all I need

Don’t build your world around

Volcanoes melt you down

What I am to you is not real

What I am to you, you do not need

What I am to you is not what you mean to me

You give me miles and miles of mountains

And I’ll ask for the sea

Don’t throw yourself like that

In front of me

I kissed your mouth, your back

Is that all you need?

Don’t drag my love around

Volcanoes melt me down

What I am to you is not real

What I am to you, you do not need

What I am to you is not what you mean to me

You give me miles and miles of mountains

And I’ll ask

What I give to you is just what I’m going through

This is nothing new, no, no just another phase of finding

what I really need is what makes me bleed

And like a new disease, Lord, she’s still too young to treat

Volcanoes melt you down

She’s still too young

I kissed your mouth

You do not need me
