Surface - Bonobo, Nicole Miglis

Lately I’ve been paper-thin

So, why can’t I fly?

Why can’t I move with the wind on a whim?

I saw a side of you I never knew

But were we ever near enough?

And all we have to do is talk it through

But words are never good enough

They only get in your way

Paper-thin paper weight

Are we close enough?

We’re close enough

See the surface

I can make it up

Might not be perfect

But I can make it up, I can make it up

I can make it up, I can make it up

I can make it up, I can make it up

I can make it up, but can I make it up?

But what’d you want to hear?

I’m crystal clear

But you were never clear enough

And if it were two-way, it’s hard to say

'Cause words are never good enough

They only get in your way

Paper-thin paper weight

Are we close enough?

We’re close enough

I can make it up

Might not be perfect

But I can make it up, I can make it up (See the surface)

I can make it up, I can make it up

I can make it up, I can make it up (Might not be perfect)

I can make it up, but can I make it up?

I can make it up

I can make it up, I can make it up

I can make it up, I can make it up

I can make it up, I can make it up

I can make it up, I can make it up

They only get in your way

Paper-thin paper weight

Are we close enough?

I can make it up, I can make it up

I can make it up, I can make it up

I can make it up, I can make it up

Can I make it up?

I can make it up

They only get in your way

Paper-thin paper weight

Are we close enough?
