Doves - Pounding Lyrics

I can't stand by
And see you destroyed
I can't be here
And watch you burn up
Lie for the moment
And lie as a decoy
Does it matter if I give in easy?
So why is it so hard to get by?

And I say we so down
But it's now or never, baby
We don't mind
If this don't last forever
See the light
But it won't last forever
Seize the time
'Cause it's now or never, baby

Let's leave at sunrise
Let's live by the ocean
I don't mind
If we never come home at all
Steal the morning
So set in motion
In and out of love
And institutions
'Cause I know
This can't last for long

And I say we so down
But it's now or never baby
We don't mind
If this don't last forever
See the light
But it won't last forever
Seize the time
'Cause it's now or never, baby

So why is it so hard to get by?
And I say

We so down
But this can't last forever
We don't mind
'Cause it's now or never, baby
