hold me in your arms
oh in the sense of you
when we're alone I'm free
until the morning comes
who are we
I felt your coldness come
you're insatiable
me I was blind
I gave to you the world
all my world is you
at the mirror you
gently comb your hair
humming my favorite song
you are the younger me
in his arms
I felt your coldness come
my own Simone
too casually
daylight trickles in
on your tremulous skin
a moonlit tear
a devil designs
you're insatiable
me I was blind
I gave to you the world
all my world is you
a tale to tell the world
it's now yours Simone
oh in the sense of you
when we're alone I'm free
until the morning comes
I felt your coldness come
you're insatiable
me I was blind
all my world is you
gently comb your hair
humming my favorite song
you are the younger me
in his arms
my own Simone
too casually
on your tremulous skin
a devil designs
me I was blind
all my world is you
it's now yours Simone

This interpretation is from Alison Goldfrapp herself.
Alison performed the song at the NYC Beacon Theater on 10 Sep 2013. She explained to the audience that “Simone” concerns a “wicked” daughter who beds her mother’s lover (“These things happen,” joked Alison, “but only in England”).
