Bloc Party. - Ion Square Lyrics
Ion square, perspex swings
I breathe out, you breathe in
Permanent midnight
Our love, our love
How we've come to depend
The space between us has disappeared
You finish my, you finish my words for me
I remember how it began
So many great days in a row
Barefoot on Bishopsgate
Trying to find Blake's grave
If we could stay like this in a silver foil
Trapped in amber for a life
Permanent midnight
I carry your heart here with me
I carry it in my heart
I carry your heart with me
I carry it in my heart
Who said unbroken happiness
Is a bore, is a bore?
Who said it, my love? I don't mind it
Anymore, anymore
And I reach out a hand over your side of the bed
Pull that blanket over your shoulders exposed to the night
And the hunger of those early years will never return
But I don't mind, I don't mind
'Cause I love my mind when I'm fucking you
Slowed down to a crawl
Years of crime and the bread line
Have not at all dimmed your shine
So let's stay in, let the sofa be our car
Let's stay in, let the TV be our stars
I found my dancing shoes but they don't fit
All the bright lights do is bore me
They bore me
I carry your heart here with me
I carry it in my heart
I carry your heart with me
I carry it in my heart

Bloc Party. Ion Square Comments
This is my favourite Bloc Party song of all time. The build and the climax! I get goosebumps every time
my favourite song. romantic
Ion square, perspex swings
I breathe out, you breathe in
Permanent midnight
Our love, our love
How we've come to depend
On each other to the end
The space between us has disappeared
You finish my, you finish my words for me
I remember how it began
So many great days in a row
Barefoot on Bishopsgate
Trying to find Blake's grave
If we could stay like this in a silver foil
Trapped in amber for a life
Permanent midnight
Our love, our love
I carry your heart here with me
I carry it in my heart
I carry your heart with me
I carry it in my heart
Who said unbroken happiness
Is a bore, is a bore?
Who said it, my love?
I don't mind it
Anymore, anymore
And I reach out a hand over your side of the bed
Pull that blanket over your shoulders exposed to the night
And the hunger of those early years will never return
But I don't mind, I don't mind
Cause I love my mind when I'm fucking you
Slowed down to a crawl
Years of crime and the bread line
Have not at all dimmed your shine
So let's stay in, let the sofa be our car
Let's stay in, let the TV be our stars
I found my dancing shoes but they don't fit
All the bright lights do is bore me
They bore me
I carry your heart here with me
I carry it in my heart
I carry your heart with me
I carry it in my heart
I have nothing but love for this song. It's always grabbing me, touching my heart in places I thought didn't exist anymore, making me shout the chorus louder than Kele... And suddenly, I remember sitting in the middle of a crowded bus!
Music isnt good anymore
Just the best fucking song UG
still a gem in '19
beautiful song with beautiful lyrics. E.E. Cummings would be proud :)
My fav personally. Here 2019
Kele visited my university a few years ago and said it was his fave BP song
This was my song back in 08, a time when I knew myself and loved more, more than I do now... This song is transcendent!!
what a beautiful song.
I love how, after most of the other songs from this album describe loss and heartbreak, this ends the experience with a tribute to familiarity and love.
god, Bloc Party are amazing.
So many bloc party songs I love but......I think this is my favourite
My favorite Bloc Party song
Iron square east london.a little park.loverly ☺
3:53...
Let's stay in!!
Touched by the grace..
Best song ever!!!
Yeah still my favourite song, absolutely devastating.
Completely Devastating 😢
this song always gives me chills.
memories .
best song of the whole intimacy album x)
yeah one of the best ...
great upload. Haven't heard this one in years. All the nicer to hear it years later, lyrics are fantastic
I love Bloc Party
They had such a great live version of this online for a while, if anyone has a copy, I'd love it.
Cuz I love my mind...slow down to a cool 💭
<3 las tardes de lluvia nunca van a volvieron a ser las mismas ni significar tanto. como me dejaste marcada ... ojala estés donde quieras. nunca te voy a perdonar por dejarme, pero siempre voy a llevar tu corazón conmigo.
‘Ion Square’ is definitely one of my all time favourite Bloc Party songs. Why? Listen to the way that this song just builds, and builds! The entire 6 minute track is like one great crescendo. I love the way even Kele’s voice builds all the way through until he’s practically yelling out the words at the end. In a way it kind of reminds me of LCD Soundsystem's ‘All My Friends’. This is the perfect love song. #punkflop #trackdrops #blocparty #lcdsoundsystem http://trackdrops.com/2016/03/01/bloc-party-ion-square/
I think this is my favorite Bloc Party song, the whole "lets stay in" bit is so spot on.
lovee!!
Keep coming back to this song ...its so amazing!
Trapped in amber for a life
Permanent midnight
Our love, our love =D! love it!!
the allusion to ee cummings :-)
Songs like this give faith that love exists.
This is the greatest love song I've ever heard. It does not dream of ideals, but rather adorns love after the luster has faded.
Purely brilliant!
It's not a bad song but for amazing love lyrics, listen to In An! by the Devin Townsend Project. It actually made me and my gf cry as the lyrics summed up how we both felt perfectly.
@Brisinger Tudders should have said In Ah!, not In An!
Modeststroke Deffo..made my year 2008
I'll know she's the one when I can sing this one to her
@decakebaker can u even sing
Schoolboy D funniest response I've ever fucking heard
I'm listening on repeat <3 amazing song!
Totally agreed. Love this song, makes me feel alive, peace out.
angriergorila your absolutely right perfect song, awesome band
easily the best band on earth... don't know on other planets.
on of the best ones ....maybe we'll know someday...
Honestly, if we met other planets who had other bands I would question if they were pretending that they hadn't heard of bloc party.
nice :)
i'm glad you liked it...
You're doing God's Work
Great Album, great song thanks for upload.
