A Dream Gone Wrong — текст песни (Jimmy Somerville)

(butcher / somerville)



How high a mountain must I climb

To reach for air

To breath the air so clear so pure

Could blow my mind

In my mind there is a place

For everyone for every taste

But in this life reality can shoot you dead

For the colour of your face



We cant all believe in the lord on high

But its our love that stops us crying

We cant change the fact

We are born to die

We cant all profess to know how or why

But keep on reaching dont stop trying



Ive seen a poison river flow

A land where nothing grows

Ive watched the men of fascist mind

Kill in the name of love

The futile war the human crime

The sacred scream just biding time

And who are we to take in vain

This precious world Im full of shame



We cant run and hide as hard as we try

We cant all believe in the lord on high

But its our love that stops us crying

We cant change the fact

We are born to die

We cant all profess to know how or why

But keep on reaching dont stop trying



If the dreams gone wrong

Let your heart be strong

If the dreams gone wrong



Dont let hope fade away



And who are we to take in vain

The precious world Im full of shame



We cant run and hide as hard as we try

We cant all believe in the lord on high

But its our love that stops us crying

We cant change the fact

We are born to die

We cant all profess to know how or why

But keep on reaching dont stop trying
