The Universe Expanded Songtext

von Franz Ferdinand

Ill give you each love letter back
Well laugh before every joke is told
Well pose after every photograph
Has been removed from the negative
With every smile we lose a line
Watch the stars fall back into the sky
Cork the wine
Unbake a cake
Take the dog back to the RSPCA
But I dont mind losing you this time
Ill meet you coming backwards
Ill meet you coming back
When the uni has expanded
Time will contract
Youll come back
Ill meet you coming backwards
Next time
We make-up start an argument
Tears crawl back into your
I turn from a friend
Of your friend
Unduced
Forget your name forevermore
But I dont mind losing you this time
Ill meet you coming backwards
Yes Ill meet you coming back
But we move forwards
Into emptiness
Into the void
Into the uni
Well part as happy strangers
From a long friendship
That grew from
Such a love
