Love is a sign


Im ten feet under water
Standing in a sunken canoe
Looking up at the waterlillies
Theyre green and violet blue
Still the sun it finds
A place to light me
Still the sun it finds
That its warm beside me.

Green and violet blue
No matter what you say no matter what
You do
I want to be the one and
Love is a sign.

The letters that were writing
Baby they just break our hearts
And when we get back together again
Theres just no time to start.
No time to restore
Its all on the ground
What youve been doing
Against what Ive found.
And this is what I find
No matter what you say no matter what
You do
I want to be the one and
Love is a sign.

Im not a playboy or a poet
Theres no cool water from the well
I wish you had a big house
And that your work would start to sell.
Wave after wave
Our tension and our tenderness.
Wave after wave
Our tension and our tenderness.
Green and violet blue
No matter what you say no matter what
You do
I want to be the one and
Love is a sign.

I know Ill see you again
The world is too big or too small.
I wont be the madman then
It will be me thats come to call.
Me in freezing weather
Snow cuffs on my wrist.
You down by the river
London no longer exists.
This is what I find
No matter what you say no matter what
You do
I want to be the one and
Love is a sign.

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

The Go-Betweens were an indie rock band formed in Brisbane, Australia, in 1977 by singer-songwriters and guitarists Robert Forster and Grant McLennan. Over the years they collaborated with musicians like Lindy Morrison (drums), Robert Vickers (bass) and Amanda Brown (violin, oboe, guitar and backing vocals). After a first phase of activity that ended in late 1989, Forster and McLennan reunited the band in 2000 with a new lineup. McLennan's death from a heart attack in 2006 led to the definitive dissolution of The Go-Betweens. Their sound is characterized by catchy melodies, introspective lyrics and influences from post-punk and Australian folk music. Among the most representative songs: "Cattle and Cane", "Streets of Your Town" and "Lee Remick".
