Nearly Civilized
Don't love me quietly
Do it with intensity
Or you'll miss the point
Do it with every sinew strained
Or there's no love to be gained
'Cause we are nearly civilized
And I could almost love you more
We will throw this building up
Just so we can tear it down again
Oh well
I don't know how you found me
But you wrapped yourself around me
I thought it was warm
And soon enough
I found me too
Immersed in mediocrity
'Cause we are nearly civilized
And I could almost love you more
We will throw this building up
Just so we can tear it down again
Nearly civilized
Nearly civilized
'Cause we are nearly civilized
And I could almost love you more
We will throw this building up
Just so we can tear it down again
'Cause we are nearly civilized (nearly civilized)
And I could almost love you more (love you, love you more)
We will throw this building up
Just so we can tear it down again
Nearly civilized
