As Holy As the Soil (That Buries Your Skin)

As Holy As the Soil (That Buries Your Skin) (Demo) - Manic Street Preachers

As holy as the soil that buries your skin

As holy as the love we'll never give

As holy as the time that drifted away

I love you so will you please come home

As holy as the Roman Empire

As holy as the coffee you made for us

As holy as those nights we walked in the rain

I love you so will you please come home

So come on – would it be that hard

Just for once

We could save the world

Just me and you doing something true

Even if it only lasts for seconds

As lonely as the darkness between the stars

As fragile as the people we are

As secret as the words we shared and displayed

I love you so will you please come home

As beautiful as the spring in Japan

As generous as your safe strong hands

As wasted as the lifetimes we spent far apart

I love you so will you please come home

So come on – would it be that hard

Just for once

We could save the world

Just me and you doing something true

Even if it only lasts for seconds

I love you so will you please come home

I love you so will you please come home

I love you so will you please come home

I love you so will you please come home
