sean nelson – advance and retreat lyrics
advance and retreat
you take a step towards me then shuffle your feet
dancing in place
and your face says it’s on
a sentiment your mouth contradicts
it’s a pretty neat trick to turn gold into lead
sn-tch a chill from the jaws of such heat
all in the name of an artful conceit:
the sovereign advance and retreat
advance and retreat
you say you don’t like when the words are too sweet
so you dip them in acid
then imp-ssively ask why the skin’s melting off of my face
just one taste of your poison’s a pretty stiff drink:
surrender disguised as defeat
i’ll follow your lead
take a shoulder-width stance for the dance of advance and retreat
we collide and we rebound-
integral but also discrete
we can cover so much ground
or we can settle for the same few square feet…
advance and retreat
you said you liked sailing
i sent my whole fleet
a rookie mistake
it’s the kind i make best
i confess: i was calling your bluff
enough is enough
though you’ve sung the same song all along
it still sound incomplete
when you catch yourself being too warm
you instantly inst-tute sweeping reform
put the word on the street:
meet the new boss- advance and retreat
