Esthero – Nearly Civilized lyrics
Nearly Civilized

Don't love me quietly
Do it with intensity
Or you'll miss the point
Do it with everything you strain
Or there's no love to be gained

'Cos we are nearly civilized
And I could almost love you now
We will throw this building up
Just so we can tear it down again

(music interlude)

I don't know how you found me
But you wrapped yourself around me
I thought it was wrong
And soon enough, I found me too
Immersed in mediocrity

'Cos we are nearly civilized
And I could almost love you now
We will throw this building up
Just so we can tear it down again

(music interlude)

'Cos we are nearly civilized
And I could almost love you now
We will throw this building up
Just so we can tear it down again
