I am scarred from the actions of others
I am scarred from the actions of self
I am scarred by the times that I held back the storm
With no one to turn to, nobody else
Climb every mountain,
Ford every stream,
Follow every rainbow,
'Till you find your dream.
In and around the lake
Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there
One mile over we’ll be there and we’ll see you
Ten true summers we’ll be there and laughing too
Twenty four before my love you’ll see
I’ll be there with you
Praying for survival at the end of the day.
There is no compassion for those who stay.
I’ll be there, I’ll be there,
I will be there.
Get out of Bombay and go up to Brixton
And look around, to see just what is missing
And up on the catwalk, girls call for mother
And dream of their boyfriends
And I don’t know why
I will be there, I will be there, I will be there
You and I must make a pact, we must bring salvation back
Where there is love, I’ll be there
Ben, the two of us need look no more
We both found what we were looking for
Looking for someone, I guess I’m doing that
Trying to find a mem’ry in a dark room
Dirty man, you’re looking like a Buddha
I know you well (yeah!)
I don’t have to be clear
Come and whisper in my ear
Give us dirty laundry
Rumour has it (rumour)
But rumour has it he’s the one I’m leaving you for.
Forbidden love
Are we supposed to be together
Once I ran to you (I ran)
Now I’ll run from you
This tainted love you’ve given
I give you all a boy could give you
Take my tears and that’s not nearly all
Tainted love
I ain’t sayin’ you treated me unkind
You could have done better but I don’t mind
You just kinda wasted my precious time
But don’t think twice, it’s all right
You give it all to me
You never listen to a thing I said
You’re furious, I’m glorious
You never hurt me that much
Don’t recognize who I’ve become.
don’t recognize where I belong.
With slight of hand you fooled me good.
Cold whispers where I once stood.
Whispers from you, calling out from above
Visions I can’t see, like the wind and your love
Whispers to you, calling out through the night
Words I can’t hear, graceful figure in white
As I watched in sorrow, there suddenly appeared
A figure gray and ghostly beneath a flowing beard
In times of deepest darkness, I’ve seen him dressed in black
Now my tapestry’s unraveling - he’s come to take me back
Seasons don’t fear the reaper
Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain… we can be like they are
Come on baby… don’t fear the reaper
There’s not much left of you, your soul belongs to me
Nothing can save you now or set your spirit free
I’m the Reaper…coming to take you!
Save one death for me
A Loner longing for
Run away, run away! Run away, run away!
The cadence of her last breath
Run away, run away! Run away, run away!
