Arctic Monkeys – Cornerstone Lyrics  Share

From Arctic Monkeys's album: Humbug

Thought I saw you in the battleship
but it was only a look a like,
She was nothing but a vision trick,
Under the warning light.
She was close,
close enough to be your ghost,
But my chances turned to toast
When I asked her if I could call her your name.

I thought I saw you in the rusty hook,
Huddled up in wicked chair,
I wondered up for a closer look
And kissed who ever was sitting there.
She was close,
And she held me very tightly
Till I asked awfully politely,
please can I call you her name.

And I elongated my lift home, yeah
i let him go the long way round
I smelt your scent in the seatbelt
And I kept my shortcuts to myself.

I thought I saw you in the parrots beak
Messing with the smoke alarm
It was too loud for me to hear her speak
And she had a broken arm.
[ Cornerstone lyrics from

It was close, so close that the walls walls were wet
And she wrote it out in letrased,
no, you can call me her name.

Tell me wehere^,s your hiding place,
I^,m worried I^,ll forget your face.
And I asked everyone
And I^,m beggining to think I imagined you all along.
I elongated my lift home.
Yeah I let him go the long way round
I smelt your scent on the seatbelt,
And kept the shortcuts to myself.

I saw your sister in the cornerstone
on the phone to the middle man
When I saw that she was on her own
I thought she might understand
She was close,
ell you couldn^,t get much closer,
She said i^,m really not supposed to but yes,
You can call me anything you want.
