I’ve, I have swum those ragin’ seas Washed up by an ocean who had tired of me How I survive, I will never know But this wreck’s got a home and a whole lot of hope I’m out on a beach, sat on a rock Thinkin’ of you and the love I’ve got I saw the Devil’s servant, I sent her home I said, „Bring me your master, I don’t want his dog” I’m on fire, I’m full of a new desire I’m on fire, I’m full of love and new desire Full of love and new desire I lit my fire, blew my conch, nobody comes I built my boat from bamboo, but it sunk I looked at the sky for vapor trails, nobody comes I wrote your name on a tree along with the days This has taken you away from me I’m out on a beach, eatin’ […]
Richard Ashcroft – ”Science of silence”
We are on a rock, spinning silently But I’m safe when you’re here with me These questions I’m asking, they’ve been haunting me I need some security, can’t you see? Her love was like a fountain rushing and pouring down The darkness is putting out the light in me She’s a well to be dug, she’s a university A cosmic library, wait and see We are on a rock, spinning silently Won’t you get close to me? We are on a rock, spinning in infinity Won’t you get close to me? Is it my genes that have made me? Is it the things I took? Is it the things I said Does karma rule? Well, if there’s a God well can you hear me now? I am crying out, hoping you know And in my baby’s arms I need no faith I need no words to define myself And when […]
Richard Ashcroft – ”Paradise”
So full of love So full of love I feel you’re taking me back To all those feelings of yesterday Dark and dusty tracks How long can I stay here? How long can I pray here? You know we meet in another space You turn around, and I see your face Oh, what a fruit, what a tree you shall be You’ll be fed by the mountains, fed by the streams (Set a sail) Set a sail for paradise We’ll leave in the morning (Set a sail) Set a sail to paradise We’ll leave in the morning I know when I’m losing control I play I am the cosmos And let the feelings roll How long can I stay here? How long can I pray here? You know we meet in another place You turn around, and I see your face Oh, and what a fruit, what a tree you […]
Richard Ashcroft – ”Check the meaning”
When I’m low, and I’m weak, and I’m lost I don’t know who I can trust Paranoia, the destroyer, comes knocking on my door You know the pain drifts to days, turns to nights But it slowly will subside And when it does, I take a step, I take a breath And wonder what I’ll find Can you hear what I’m saying? Got my mind meditating on love, love Feel what I’m saying Got my mind meditating on love, love (The human condition, the human condition) Too much blood, too much hate, turn off the set There’s got to be something more When Mohammed, Allah, Buddah, Jesus Christ Are knocking down my door I’m agnostic getting God, but man She takes a female form There’s no time, no space, no law We’re out here on our own Can you hear what I’m saying? Got my mind meditating on love, love […]
