Wiki:

Released as the third single from The 1975’s self-titled debut album, “Settle Down” tells a tale of a secretive love affair. Matty Healy spoke extensively about its message and inspiration: "With ‘Settle Down’ I wanted to make a story about the extension of that dream, a video that explores love, a video that was as fantastical, consuming and limitless as the love we all chase and desire. Love as I have always imagined."

[Verse 1] A soft sound to the way that she wears her hair down Covering up her face And oh, what a letdown I don't seem to be having any effect now Falling all over the place [Pre-Chorus 1] And you're losing your words We're speaking in bodies Avoiding me and talking about you And you're losing your turn I guess I'll never learn 'Cause I stay another hour or two [Chorus] For crying out loud, settle down You know I can't be found with you We get back to my house Your hands, my mouth Now I just stop myself around you [Verse 2] A small town dictating all the people we get around What a familiar face Do you get what I mean now? I'm so fixated on the girl with the soft sound And hair all over the place [Pre-Chorus 2] You're sure that I'd learn I'm pushing through bodies Avoiding me and walking around you You're cold and I burn I guess I'll never learn 'Cause I stay another hour or two [Chorus] For crying out loud, settle down You know I can't be found with you We get back to my house Your hands, my mouth Now I just stop myself around you (Hey!) [Instrumental Interlude] [Verse 1] A soft sound into the way that she wears her hair down Covering up her face And oh, what a letdown I don't seem to be having any effect now Falling all over the place [Pre-Chorus 1] And you're losing your words We're speaking in bodies Avoiding me and talking about you And you're losing your turn I guess I'll never learn 'Cause I stay another hour or two [Chorus] For crying out loud, settle down! You know I can't be found with you We get back to my house Your hands, my mouth Now I just stop myself around you (For crying out loud!)
