Maximo Park Questing, Not Coasting lyrics

Questing, I am not coasting
Nor will I ever despite this weather

I said hey you, what's new? I know your face
Hey you, what's new? Let's go some place
My thoughts that fled my loosening grip
I need to connect to you now

On our knees against the windowsill
Watching the sheet's lightening fly
Our hands caught spray from the open windows
A blanket of light, a whitewashed sky

You move your frame into the shape
The window makes a lunar flame
Static headlights glow in the flooded streets below
The TV turns to snow, gutters weep with overflow

I said hey you, what's new? I know your face
And I need to connect to you now


On our knees against the windowsill
Watching the sheet's lightening fly
Our hands caught spray from the open window
A blanket of light, a whitewashed sky

Thanks for coming by, it's such a dreadful night
A net curtain flashes, outside the rain it lashes
Frozen stardust falls, wide eyes can see it all

On our knees against the windowsill
Watching the sheet's lightening fly
Our hands caught spray from the open window

And we're on our knees against the windowsill
Watching the sheet's lightening fly
Our hands caught spray from the open window
Thanks for coming by
