Suede - the asphalt world

노래는 도시를 배경으로 한 한 소녀와의 관계를 통해 인간의 복잡한 감정과 사랑의 본질을 탐구한다
주인공은 소녀의 감정과 그녀가 찾는 사랑을 고민하며 갈등을 겪는다
도시의 화려함 속에서도 숨겨진 고독과 욕망이 얽힌 복잡한 감정을 묘사한다

I know a girl, she walks the asphalt world
She comes to me, I supply her with ecstasy
Sometimes we ride in a taxi to the ends of the city
Like big stars in the back seat, like skeletons, ever so pretty
I know a girl, she walks the asphalt world
But where does she go and what does she do?
And how does she feel when she's next to you?
And who does she love in her time honoured fur?
Is it me or her?
I know a girl, she walks the asphalt world
She's got a friend, they share mascara, I pretend
Sometimes they fly from the covers to the winter of the river
For these silent stars of the cinema, it's in the bloodstream, it's in the liver
I know a girl, she walks the arse-felt world
But where does she go and what does she do?
And how does she feel when she's next to you?
And who does she love in her time honoured fur?
Is it me or her?
With ice in her blood and a dove in her head
Well, how does she feel when she's in your bed?
When you're there in her arms and there in her legs
Well, I'll be in her head
'Cause that's where I go and that's what I do
And that's how it feels when the sex turns cruel
Yes, both of us need her, this is the asphalt world
