"Resist The Urge" lyrics
Matt Sweeney & Bonnie "Prince" Billy Lyrics
If I should die before I wake
Resist the urge, resist the urge
To cry or falter for my sake
I didn't die, I didn't die
If you should wake and I'm not there
Resist the urge, resist the urge
I'm in your breath, I'm in your hair
I haven't gone away
I'm holding you and singing strong
And constant in your ear
I may not be there bodily but
In the wind, I'm here
If you should miss the touch of me
Resist the urge, resist the urge
You're not without that much of me
I wasn't just a body
And if you need reminders, child
Resist the urge, resist the urge
Look round at what is huge and wild
And there, you'll see the way
I'm holding you and singing strong
And constant in your ear
I may not be there bodily but
In the wind, I'm here
I didn't die, I didn't die, I didn't die
I didn't die, I didn't die, I didn't die
Resist the urge, resist the urge
To cry or falter for my sake
I didn't die, I didn't die
If you should wake and I'm not there
Resist the urge, resist the urge
I'm in your breath, I'm in your hair
I haven't gone away
I'm holding you and singing strong
And constant in your ear
I may not be there bodily but
In the wind, I'm here
If you should miss the touch of me
Resist the urge, resist the urge
You're not without that much of me
I wasn't just a body
And if you need reminders, child
Resist the urge, resist the urge
Look round at what is huge and wild
And there, you'll see the way
I'm holding you and singing strong
And constant in your ear
I may not be there bodily but
In the wind, I'm here
I didn't die, I didn't die, I didn't die
I didn't die, I didn't die, I didn't die
