Erasure • Lyrics
Moon & The Sky
All of a sudden it's gone
Too late to wish a friend farewell
Heard the sea in a shell
Said we would meet in other worlds
See how the moon, she cries
Cool how the tears fill up the sky as snow
Gotta touch the sky
Hold you head in my hand
A taste, a wish, a parting sigh
Takes the boat across the water
Heaves a gentle sigh
See how the moon, she cries
Cool how the tears fill up the sky as snow
Gotta touch the sky
All of a sudden it's gone
Too late to wish a friend farewell
Heard the sea in a shell
Said we would meet in other worlds
See how the moon, she cries
Cool how the tears fill up the sky as snow
Gotta touch the sky
Gotta touch the sky
Gotta touch the sky
Baby love, my baby love
I need you, oh how I need you
But all you do is treat me bad
Break my heart and leave me sad
Tell me, what did I do wrong
To make you stay away so long?
'Cause baby love, my baby love
Been missing ya, miss kissing ya
Instead of breaking up
Let's do some kissing and making up
Don't throw our love away
In my arms why don't you stay?
Baby love, my baby love
Why must we separate, my love?
All of my whole life through
I never loved no one but you
Why you do me like you do?
I get this need
Ooh, ooh, need to hold you
Once again, my love
Feel your warm embrace, my love
Don't throw our love away
Please don't do me this way
Not happy like I used to be
Loneliness has got the best of me
My love, my baby love
I need you, oh how I need you
Why you do me like you do
After I've been true to you?
So deep in love with you
I guess it's me
Need to hold you
Once again my love
Feel your warm embrace my love
Don't throw our love away
Don't throw our love away
Don't throw our love away
Baby, baby, baby
Freedom will come
To real love
Heaven will come
For real love
Do-Wah, Do-Wah, Do-Wah
Run away when it hurts, from the things that we do
Do-Wah, Do-Wah, Do-Wah
Don't know why we cry, run away from the truth
Children of new men
Colors of human kind, in shadow
Good is your loving
Growing and sharing storms
Believe
You've got to believe
Calling the day freedom will come
And we will arise to real love
Day by day, heaven will come
And we'll survive for real love
Cherish the union, the light in a stranger's eyes
Your guardian angel will make all the wrong things right
Believe
You've got to believe
Do-Wah, Do-Wah, Do-Wah
Do-Wah, Do-Wah, Do-Wah
Do-Wah, Do-Wah, Do-Wah
Do-Wah, Do-Wah, Do-Wah
Calling the day freedom will come
And we will arise to real love
Day by day, heaven will come
And we'll survive for real love
Calling the day freedom will come
And touch the sky in heaven above
Day by day, heaven will come
And we'll survive for real love
Calling the day freedom will come
And touch the sky in heaven above
Day by day, heaven will come
And we'll survive for real love
Calling the day freedom will come
And touch the sky in heaven above
Day by day, heaven will come
And we'll survive for real love
Cuts to the quick
Pure emotion, a trip
No word of a lie
Pressed to your lips
We collide, slowly twist
Ardent and lithe
Seeps into the ground
Kisses the earth and I am found
Love's young dream could be alien
Strange ways, how we fly
Tuning low like a radio
Whispering goodbye
Alien, Wo-Ah, alien
Just so it seems
Softly potent, serene
Vacant and shy
You are everywhere
Under my skin and in my hair
Love's young dream could be alien
Strange ways, how we fly
Tuning low like a radio
Whispering goodbye
Alien, Wo-Ah, alien
Seeps into the ground
Kisses the earth and I am found
Love's young dream could be alien
Strange ways, how we fly
Tuning low like a radio
Whispering goodbye
Love's young dream could be alien
Strange ways, how we fly
Tuning low like a radio
Whispering goodbye
Love's young dream could be alien
Strange ways, how we fly
Tuning low like a radio
Whispering goodbye
Love's young dream
Could be serene
So alien
Where in the world did you go?
Without a clue, without a word
What on earth did I do wrong?
You won't believe how much I hurt
I can't believe the mess we're in
My sense of humour wearing thin
Gets away with murder every day
Can't you hear me?
Won't you make it go away?
An aftertaste of bitterness
Hits me in the face, someone else's lips
Here I lie awake, alone
Just wishing you'd come home
You leave me desolate and sore
Go and fight in someone else's war
And so you put us both to shame
Don't come near me
Won't you make it go away?
I can't believe the mess we're in
My sense of humour wearing thin
No-one's getting younger anyway
Can't you hear me?
Won't you make it go away?
I can't believe the mess that we're in
My sense of humour wearing thin
Gets away with murder every other day
Can't you hear me?
Won't you make it go away?
I try to discover a little something to make me sweeter
Oh baby refrain from breaking my heart
I'm so in love with you
I'll be forever blue
That you gimme no reason why you make me work so hard
That you gimme no
That you gimme no
That you gimme no
That you gimme no
Soul, I hear you calling
Oh baby please
Give a little respect to me
And if I should falter would you open your arms to me?
We can make love not war and live at peace with our hearts
I'm so in love with you
I'll be forever blue
What religion or reason could drive a man to forsake his lover?
Don't you tell me no
Don't you tell me no
Don't you tell me no
Don't you tell me no
Soul, I hear you calling
Oh baby please
Give a little respect to me
I'm so in love with you
I'll be forever blue
That you gimme no reason, you know you make me work so hard
That you gimme no
That you gimme no
That you gimme no
That you gimme no
Soul, I hear you calling
Oh baby please (give a little respect)
Give a little respect to me
Soul, I hear you calling
Oh baby please (give a little respect)
Give a little respect to me
Perchance to dream
Dive into the wall of sound, yeah
Crashing all over me
Turning my world upside-down
And then I see, and I start to breathe
As if for the first time
Suddenly, as calm as can be
Sky full of wonder, tears asunder
Climb through the car
Falling up to meet the road
Something in my head will explode
Oh baby gee
Won't you come and share the world with me
Time with me
Tears on a tin box
I tear out tinder to strike it with, yeah
A little spark is satisfied
Kights up the soft wood
And then I see, and I start to breathe
The mountain in moonshine
Stars on my breath, scares me to death
Flickering mellow shadows
Climb through the air
Falling up to meet the clouds
Static in my hair, I blush out loud
Oh baby gee
Won't you come and share the world with me
Time with me
And then I see, and I start to breathe
As if for the first time
Suddenly, as calm as can be
Sky full of wonder, tears asunder
Climb through the car
Falling up to meet the road
Something in my head will explode
Oh baby gee
Won't you come and share the world with me
Time with me
Oh baby gee
Won't you come and share the world with me
Time with me
