Erasure

"There's something going on, Something not quite right. There's something stranger Happening to me. There's someone at the door, I hear voices in my head. It seems things aren't the way They ought to be."

"Oh l'amour (Oh l'amour) Broke my heart Now I'm aching for you Mon amour (Mon amour) What's a boy in love Supposed to do?"

"You are on one side, I am on the other. Are we divided? Why can't we live together?"

"I don't wanna look Like some kind of fool. I don't wanna break My heart over you. I'm building a wall, Everyday it's getting higher. This time I won't end up Another victim of love."

"Ooh, sometimes The truth is harder Than the pain inside, yeah. Ooh, sometimes It's the broken heart That decides."

"Father worked in industry, Now the work has moved on. And the factory's gone See them sell your history Where once you were strong And you used to belong."

"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 give me no reason Why you make a me work so hard."

"And if I should falter, Would you open your arms out 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?"

"I close my eyes and I try to imagine What you're dreaming. Why can't you see what you're doing to me? My world is spinning."

"She was a shy girl from the lonely streets; She had no job to do, no friends to meet. She'd sit in silence in her empty room, Dream of her childhood and invented truths.And in her mind she'd drift away, A secret place to steal away."

"Come to me, cover me, hold me Together we'll break these chains of love. Don't give up (Don't give up) Don't give up (Don't) Together with me and my baby Break the chains of love."

"My home is where the heart is Sweet to surrender to you only I send my love to you."

"One rule for us, For you another: Do unto yourself As you see fit for your brother.Is that not within your realm of understanding? A fifty-second capacity of mind, too demanding?"

"God is love, God is war, TV preacher tell me more. Lord redeem me, am I pure? Pure as, pure as heaven. Sent you money, sent you flowers, Could I worship you for hours? In whose hands are we anyway?"

"Don't ever let me take you for granted, You've got your finger on the pulse of my soul. Let me place a kiss in the small of your back, Love and protect you from the evils of this world.Oh baby don't ever leave me stranded. Whoever said that the streets were paved with gold? Well I'm afraid that we're all sadly mistaken, There's nothing here 'til we have someone to hold."

"Go ahead with your dreamin', For what it's worth. Or you'll be stricken bound, Kickin' up dirt. For when it's dark, You never know what the night it may bring."

"Never had a point of view 'Cause my mind was always someone else's mind."

"Look at all the lonely people Walking miles around the town. I can see the old cathedral, But I have to play it down. Boats along the river Setting up their sails. And life carries on as normal Although you're not around."

"I'm crazy flowing over with ideas, A thousand ways to woo a lover so sincere. Love and hate, what a beautiful combination, Sending shivers up and down my spine."

"If they'd ever told me That I'd find true love in every way, Would I cry till tomorrow? Would I keep the non-believers away? Was I shy? Was I good with this foolish heart? Did I try to deny we would fall apart?"

"That I should fall from grace Implies a twist of fate, But I'm open to the joys and woes of passion.And who shall take the wheel When it's time for overkill? There's no release when destiny is calling."

"Open your eyes, I see Your eyes are open Wear no disguise for me Come into the open.When it's cold outside, Am I here in vain? Hold on to the night, There will be no shame."

"Don't know what you've got 'til it's gone, A hint of the scent then it's gone. Look at the state of you, you're all fingers and thumbs. So, who's your latest flame, Drivin' 'em wild in the fast lane. Won't say I told you so, but the boy has no shame (no shame)."

"Past five in the morning, Feeling worse for the weather it seems. But what a feeling, What an endless night this has been.And we can't stay here 'Cause we won't be forever young. We'll have to go down Before innocence is lost."

"Weep for me And I will set your wheels in motion. Keep with me And like a roller on the ocean Stand by me And I will fill you with devotion Walk with me The inner reaches of emotion."

"My world in light, saving all as one A love that no-one can deny My one true light, same for everyone A love we dare you to defy. Only rain."

"And walls come tumbling down, We'll be forever calm. And you'll be here in my arms, I'll keep you away from harm."

"My eyes are closed And I've nothing more to say. But I was so willing To give it all away. And what a show I've loved you all I could When will I see you? Is nothing understood?"

"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."

"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."

"How am I supposed to know what's in your head, what's on your mind? I'm searching for your love that's in your heart; I need it.Here I go impossible again Should I hold you close to keep the night from ending?"

"Breathe, and I breathe It's bitter without you I can't live without you And I'm in love with you."

"With the light coming in, My desire to give in runs away with me. If I'm not good enough and my love is too much, Then forget it. Now I am strong, Carry me home. You can take it or leave it."

"Call me, Any time just call me. Tell me that you want me, Feel it everywhere.Hold me, Never let go of me. I love it when you haunt me, Tell me that you care."

"I'm talking 'bout the soul inside, Every thought and word and deed. We're running and we don't look back, Some people never see the light.Every particle of time, It will be a healing one. We only dream in black and white, Blind to the beautiful one."

"Everybody seems to have their own point of view, In time my friend there'll be another. Everybody wants to tell me what I should do, But I don't know if I'll recover.What did I do? Did I deserve it? Have I been careless with you baby? What can I do to make it better?"
