Erlend Øye - The Attraction (feat. La Comitiva)

Are you listening while I'm talking, or just looking at my mouth?
Are you here to understand me, or just somewhere in a cloud?
Do you recognize my predicament, or just ruthlessly ignore?
Are you too young to be aware of the trouble you may cause
If you keep coming on strong, and if I choose to respond?

Your brother doesn't show it, but clearly he must know
Your sister must be black inside by jealousy by now
Our common friends are worried for the same reason as I
But cheer me on, not knowing what riches are at stake
They forward me your bait, but I don't bat that way

We are floating on the ocean on a mattress filled with air
The currents and the noon-breeze bring us further from the shore
From the common sense police and their prying ears and eyes
Away from that reality we both wish to deny
To a promised land of blue, whether it's just me and you

Are you thinking what I'm thinking? Are you feeling what I feel?
Is this whole thing my invention? This attraction, is it real?
Is the whole world I've been building about to come crashing down?
Or was your love sent to save me from the windmills of my mind?
If I ask you, it may show; if I touch you, I will know
If I ask you, it may show; if I touch you, I will know
