UNDER
THE GUN
(Sisters
of Mercy)
You don´t have to
say you´re sorry
to look on further down
the time
into the sun
too close at heaven
love is fine
but you can´t hold
it like a...
Two worlds apart, two together
into that good night kiss
away
one takes the hard, one
the other
kiss away...
Are you living for love?
are you living for love?
when the road gets too rough
is your love strong enough?
Are you living?
are you living for love?
are you living for love?
are you living?
are you living for love?
are you living for love?
Do you feel your head is
full of thunder?
questions never end?
empty nights alone?
no wonder
it all comes back again
Are you living for love?
are you living for love?
I´ve been under the
gun
I´ve lost and I´ve...
are you living for love?
are you living for love?
I´ve been under the
gun
I´ve lost and I´ve
won
Forget the many steps to
heaven
it never happened and it
ain´t so hard
happiness is loaded weapon
and a
short cut is better
by far
explosive bolts, ten thousand
volts
at a million miles an hour
abrasive wheels and molten
metals
it´s a semi-automatic
get in the car
corrosive heart and frozen
heat
we are worlds apart where
we could meet
where the street told round
and the motors start
and the idiot wields the
power
where the chosen hold the
highest card
on the field of honour where
the ground is hard
so the highest hand is joking
wild
and the house soon fold
and no one stand
I put my finger on and dialled
the tower, the moon, the
gun, and
nine nine nine singer down
cloudburst and all around
the first are last, the
blessed get wired
the best is yet to come
I put my finger on and fired
heat-seeking, out of the
sun
you can set the controls
for the heart or the knees
and the meek´ll inherit
what they damn well please
get ahead, go figurite,
go ahead and pull the trigger
everything under the gun
Everything under the gun
are you living for love? |
TEMPLE
OF LOVE
(Sisters
of Mercy)
With the fire from the fireworks
up above me
with a gun for a lover and
a shot for the pain at hand
you run for cover in the
temple of love
you run for another but
still the same
for he wind will blow my
name across this land
in the temple of love you
hide together
believing pain and fear
outside
but someone near you rides
the weather
and the tears he cried will
rain on
walls as wide as lovers´s
eyes
In the temple of love - shine
like thunder
in the temple of love -
cry like rain
in the temple of love -
hear my calling
in the temple of love -
hear my name
And the devil in a black
dress watches over
my guardian angel walks
away
life is short and love is
always over in the morning
black wind come carry me
far away
with the sunlight died and
the night above me
with a gun for a lover and
a shot for the pain inside
you run for cover in the
temple of love
you run for another, it´s
all the same
for the wind will blow and
throw your walls aside
With the fire from te fireworks
up above
with a gun for a lover and
a shot for the pain
you run for cover in the
temple of love
I shine like thunder, cry
like rain
and the temple of love grows
old and strong
but the wind blows stronger,
cold and long
and the temple of love will
fall before this
black wind calls my name
to you no more
In the black sky thunder
sweeping under
ground and over water, sounds
of
crying, weeping will not
save your
faith for bricks and dreams
for mortar
all your prayers must seem
as nothing
ninety-six below the wave
when
stone is dust and only air
remains
In the temple of love - shine
like thunder
in the temple of love -
cry
like rain
in the temple of love -
hear the calling
and the temple of love -
is falling down
temple of love
In the temple of love - shine
like thunder
in the temple of love -
cry like rain
in the temple of love -
hear my calling
in the temple of love -
hear my name
In the black sky thunder
sweeping under
ground and over water, sounds
of
crying, weeping will not
save your
faith for bricks and dreams
for mortar
all your prayers must seem
as nothing
ninety-six below the wave
when
stone is dust and only air
remains
the only heaven you can
trust
and the devil in a black
dress watches over
my guardian angel walks
away
life is short and love is
always over in the morning
black wind come carry me
far away
With the from te fireworks
up above
with a gun for a lover and
a shot for the pain
you run for cover in the
temple of love
I shine like thunder, cry
like rain
and the temple of love grows
old and strong
but the wind blows stronger,
cold and long
and the temple of love will
fall before this
black wind calls my name
to you no more
temple of love
In the temple of love you
hide together
believing pain and fear
outside
but someone near you rides
the weather
and the tears he cried will
rain on
walls as wide as lovers
eyes
In the temple of love - shine
like thunder
in the temple of love -
cry like rain
in the temple of love -
hear the calling
and the temple of love -
is falling down. |

MORE
(Sisters
of Mercy)
Some people get by
with a little understanding
some people get by
with a whole lot more
I don´t know
why gou gotta be so under-anding
one thing I know
I want more
I want more
(and I need all the love
that I can get to)
(and I need all the love
that I can get)
(and I need all the love
that I can get to)
Do you get scared to feel
so much?
to let somebody touch you?
so hot, so cold, so far
so out of control
hard to come by and harder
to hold
Some people get by
with a little understanding
some people get by
with a whole lot more
I don´t know
why gou gotta be so under-anding
I want more
(and I need all the love
that I can get)
(and I need all the love
that I can get to)
(and I need all the love
that I can get)
(and I need all the love
that I can get to)
There are parts of me that
don´t get nervious
not the parts that shake
you won´t get what
you deserve
you are what you take
learning to cry for fun
and pro--
I´m not done yet
counterfeit dolars or the
English ---
anything I can get
Some people get by
with a little understanding
some people get by
wieth a whole lot more
I don´t know
why gou gotta be so under-anding
one thing I know
I want more
(and I need all the love
that I can get)
(and I need all the love
that I can get to)
(and I need all the love
that I can get)
(and I need all the love
that I can get to)
All the love that you can
get
all the love
that I can get to |
