Pure Bathing Culture Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Leave her alone, they say
Separated by fools
Who don't know what love is yet
But I want you to know
If I could fly
I'd pick you up
And show you a love
Like you've never seen, ever seen
It's like having a dream
Where nobody has a heart
It's like having it all
And watching it fall apart
And I would wait till the end of time for you
And do it again, it's true
I can't measure my love
There's nothing to compare it to
But I want you to know
If I could fly
I'd pick you up
I'd take you into the night
And show you a love
Oh if I could fly
I'd pick you up
I'd take you into the night
And show you a love
Like you've never seen, ever seen
Oh if I could fly
I'd pick you up
I'd take you into the night
And show you a love
Oh if I could fly
I'd pick you up
And take you into the night
If I could fly
I'd pick you up
And into the night
Fly
I'd pick you up

Now you move so smooth
It's all new inside you.
Spins that rhythm you let push through.
Rows to rows, mile to mile
Gaze is fixed, eyes on fire.
Something secret sleeps deep inside.
It's your natural place you stay
Scotty's got his way, yeah.
And you laugh in their faces
You say, "Scotty's got to stay, " yeah.
They blink once, they blink twice
Seen it all, hearts like ice
Something secret sleeps deep within you.
It's your natural place you stay
Scotty's got his way, yeah.
And you laugh in their faces
You say, "Scotty's got to stay, " yeah.
It's your natural place
And you laugh in their faces.
It's your natural place you stay
Scotty's got his way, yeah.
You laugh in their faces you say...
If I could fly, I'd pick you up

If I could fly, I'd pick you up
I'd take you into the night
And show you love

@renategreen1582
I've been listening to this song on and off for almost 5 years and I never actually read the lyrics until tonight and wow I'm blown away by how deep and poetic they are!
@JaredVii
Interesting! What do they mean to you?
@renategreen1582
@Jared lots of ways to interpret it but for me, I see someone discovering who they are / who they want to be and learning to fight for / embrace what that is despite what anyone else thinks of it.
