the scientist

Mike Posner

Come up to meet you, tell you i'm sorry
You don't know how lovely you are
I had to find you, tell you i need you
Tell you i set you apart

So tell me your secrets, and ask me your questions
Oh let's go back to the start
Running in circles, coming in tails
Heads on a science apart

Oh take me back to the start

I was just guessing at numbers and figures
Pulling the puzzles apart
Questions of science, science and progress
Don't speak as loud as my heart

Nobody said it was easy
It's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard

Oh take me back to the start

Aah oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh (2x)
