Volcano

Damien Rice Featuring Lisa Hannigan

Don't hold yourself like that

You'll hurt your knees

I kissed your mouth and back

That's all I need

Don't build your world around

Volcanoes melt you down



And what I am to you

Is not real

And what I am to you

You do not need

And what I am to you

Is not what you mean to me

You give me miles and miles of mountains

And I 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

And what I am to you

Is not real

And what I am to you

You do not need

And what I am to you

Is not what you mean to me



You give me miles and miles of mountains

And I 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

Like a new disease

But lord she's still too young to treat



She's still too young/ Volcanoes melt you down

What I am to you/ Volcanoes melt you down/ She's still too young

Is not real/ Volcanoes melt you down/ She's still too young

What I am to you/ Volcanoes melt you down/ She's still too young

You do not need/ Volcanoes melt you down/ She's still too young

She's still too young/ Volcanoes melt you down/ She's still too young



You do not need me
