Pace Is the Trick

Interpol

You can't hold it too tight
These matters of security
You don't have to be wound so tight
Smoking on the balcony
But it's that sleaze in the park
"You women, you have no self-control,"
The angels remark outside
You were known for insatiable means; I don't know a thing

I've seen love, and I followed the speeding of starlight
I've seen love, and I followed the speeding of star swept night
Yeah, pace is the trick

And to all the destruction in men
Well, I see you as you take your pride, my lioness
Your defenses seem wise, I cannot press
And detentions are demised, my lioness
Can't you hurt it some, think I hurt it

I've seen love, and I followed the speeding of starlight
I've seen love, and I followed the speeding of star swept night

And now I select you, slow down I let you
See how I stun, see how I stun
And now I select you, slow down I let you
See how I stun, see how I stun

And to all the destruction in men
And to all the corruption in my hand

And now I select you, slow down I let you
See how I stun, see how I stun
And now I select you, slow down I let you
See how I stun, see how I stun
And now I select you, slow down I let you
See how I stun, see how I stun
And now I select you, slow down I let you
I always follow the speeding of star swept night

You don't hold a candle
You don't hold a candle
You don't hold a candle
