”When the Angels Fall” (versuri/lyrics) Melodie de: Sting So high above the world tonight The angels watch us sleeping And underneath a bridge of stars We dream in safety’s keeping But perhaps the dream Is dreaming us Soaring with the seagulls But perhaps the dream Is dreaming us Astride the backs of eagles When the angels fall Shadows on the wall In the thunder’s call Something haunts us all When the angels fall When the angels fall Take your father’s cross Gently from the wall The shadow still remaining See the churches fall In mighty arcs of sound And all that they’re containing Yet all the ragged souls Of all the ragged men Looking for their lost homes Shuffle to the ruins From the levelled plain To search among the Tombstones When the angels fall Shadows on the wall In the thunder’s call Something haunts us all When the angels […]
Sting
”If You There” (versuri/lyrics) Melodie de: Sting Your beauty pulses like a distant star Once you were so near to me And now you’ve gone so far Wretched and as fixed to earth as any stone Lying now don’t move nor speak no statue here alone Living here just with a memory A simple recollection that’s so dear to me You said it’s logical that we should part What’s pleasing to my intellect Must surely break my heart Man will always want what he can’t have It’s more than he can do just to be brave He seeks perfection in a thousand ways Just throw another shovel on his grave Born to live, born to die Born to wonder Why? Why? Why? Why? If you there, would you leave me wondering? If you there, I’m one man only If you there, don’t leave me wondering If you there You say […]

”Come Heavy Sleep” (versuri/lyrics) Melodie de: Edin Karamazov, Sting Come heavy sleepe the image of true death; And close up these my weary weeping eyes: Whose spring of tears doth stop my vitall breath, And tears my hart with sorrows sigh swoln cries: Come and posses my tired thoughts worn soul, That living dies, till thou on me be stoule. Come shadow of my end, and shape of rest, Allied to death, child to his blackfac’d night: Come thou and charme these rebels in my breast, Whose waking fancies doe my mind affright. O come sweet sleepe; come, or I die for ever: Come ere my last sleepe comes, or come never. Compozitori: John Dowland, Edin Karamazov, Gordon Matthew Sumner.

”Can She Excuse My Wrongs?” Melodie de: Edin Karamazov, Sting Can she excuse my wrongs with virtue’s cloak? Shall i call her good when she proves unkind? Are those clear fires which vanish into smoke? Must i praise the leaves where no fruit i find? No, no, where shadows do for bodies stand Thou may’st be abus’d if thy sight be dimmed Cold love is like to words written on sand Or to bubbles which on the water swim Wilt thou be thus abused still Seeing that she will right thee never? If thou cans’t not o’ercome her will Thy love will be thus fruitless ever Wilt thou be thus abused still Seeing that she will right thee never? If thou cans’t not o’ercome her will Thy love will be thus fruitless ever Was i so base, that i might not aspire Unto those high joys which she holds from […]
”Dead Man’s Boots” (versuri/lyrics) Melodie de: Sting You see these work boots in my hands They’ll probably fit you now, my son Take them, they’re a gift from me Why don’t you try them on? It would do your old man good To see you walking in these boots one day And take your place among the men Who work upon the slipway These dead man’s boots, though they’re old and curled When a feller needs a job and a place in the world And it’s time for a man to put down roots And walk to the river in his old man’s boots He said, „I’m nearly done and asking this That you do one final thing for me You’re barely but a sapling And you think that you’re a tree” „If you need a seed to prosper You must first put down some roots Just one foot, then […]
”Have You Seen the Bright Lily Grow” (versuri/lyrics) Melodie de: Edin Karamazov, Sting Have you seen but a bright lily grow Before rude hands have touched it? Have you marked but the fall of snow Before the soil hath smutched it? Have you felt the wool of beaver, Or swan’s down ever? Or have smelt o’ the bud o’ the brier, Or the nard in the fire? Or have tasted the bag of the bee? O so white, o so soft, o so sweet is she! Compozitori: Edin Karamazov, Gordon Matthew Sumner, Dp. Doar pentru utilizare non-comercială. Date de la: Musixmatch
”August Winds” (versuri/lyrics) Melodie de: Sting When August winds are turning, The fishing boats set out upon the sea, I watch ‘til they sail out of sight, The winter follows soon, I watch them drawn into the night, Beneath the August moon. No one knows I come here, Some things I don’t share, I can’t explain the reasons why, It moves me close to tears, Or something in the season’s change, Will find me wandering here. And in my public moments, I hear the things I say but they’re not me, Perhaps I’ll know before I die, Admit that there’s a reason why, I count the boats returning to the sea, I count the boats returning to the sea. And in my private moments, I drop the mask that I’ve been forced to wear, But no one knows this secret me, Where albeit unconsciously, I count the boats returning from […]
”The Snow It Melts the Soonest” (versuri/lyrics) Melodie de: Sting Oh, the snow it melts the soonest when the winds begin to sing And the corn, it ripens fastest when the frost is settling in And when a woman tells me my face she’ll soon forget Before we’ll part, I’ll wage a croon, she’s fain to follow it yet Oh, the snow it melts the soonest when the winds begin to sing And the swallow skims without a thought as long as it is spring But when spring goes, and winter blows, my Lassie, you’ll be fain For all your pride, to follow me across the stormy main Oh, the snow it melts the soonest when the winds begin to sing And the bee that flew when summer shone, in winter cannot sting I’ve seen a woman’s anger melt betwixt the night and morn Oh it’s surely not a harder […]

”Driven to Tears” (versuri/lyrics In Paris) Melodie de: Sting How can you say that you’re not responsible? What does it have to do with me? What is my reaction? What should it be? Confronted by this latest atrocity Driven to tears Driven to tears Driven to tears Hide my face in my hands, shame wells in my throat My comfortable existence is reduced to a shallow, meaningless party Seems that when some innocents die All we can offer them is a page in some magazine Too many cameras and not enough food This is what we’ve seen Driven to tears Driven to tears Driven to tears What? Whoa-oh, oh Whoa-oh, oh Whoa-oh, oh Whoa-oh Protest is futile Nothing seems to get through What’s to become of our world? Who knows what to do? Driven to tears Driven to tears Driven to tears Driven to tears Driven to tears Driven to […]

”Send Your Love” (Wink Deeper Vocal Interpretation) (versuri/lyrics) Melodie de: Sting Finding the world in the smallness of a grain of sand And holding infinities in the palm of your hand And heaven’s realms in the seedlings of this tiny flower And eternities in the space of a single hour Send your love Into the future Send your love Into the distant dawn Inside your mind is a relay station A mission probe into the unknown We send a seed to a distant future And we can watch a galaxy growing This ain’t no time for doubting your power This ain’t no time for hiding your care You’re climbing down from an ivory tower You got a stake in the world we ought to share You see the stars are moving so slowly But still the earth is moving so fast Can’t you see the moon is so lonely? She’s […]
