80s synthmeister Howard Jones excellent take on how and where it all began…
There was a time when there was nothing at all
Nothing at all
Just a distant hum
There was a being and he lived on his own
He had no one to talk to
And nothing to do
He drew up the plans
Learnt to work with his hands
A million years passed by and his work was done
And his words were these…Hope you find it in everything
Everything that you see
Hope you find it in everything
Everything that you see
Hope you find it
Hope you find it
Hope you find me in youSo she had built her elaborate home
With it’s ups and it’s downs
It’s rain and it’s sun
She decided that her work it was done
Time to have fun
And find a game to playThen as part of the game
She completely forgot where she’d hidden herself
And she spent the rest of her time
Trying to find the partsHope you find it in everything
Everything that you see
Hope you find it in everything
Everything that you see
Hope you find it
Hope you find it
Hope you find me in youThere was a time when there was nothing at all
Nothing at all
Just a distant humNik Kershaw – Wouldn’t it be good
I got it bad, you don’t know how bad I got it
You got it easy, you don’t know when you’ve got it good
It’s getting harder just keeping life and soul together
I’m sick of fighting even though I know I should
The cold is biting through each and every nerve and fibre
My broken spirit is frozen to the core
I don’t wanna be here no moreWouldn’t it be good to be in your shoes
Even if it was for just one day
And wouldn’t it be good if we could wish ourselves away
Wouldn’t it be good to be on your side
The grass is always greener over there
And wouldn’t it be good if we cold live without a careYou must be joking, you don’t know a thing about it
You got no problem, I’d stay right there if it were you
I got it harder, you couldn’t dream how hard it got it
Stay outta my shoes if you know what’s good for you
The heat is stifling, burning me up from the inside
The sweat is coming through each and every pore
I don’t wanna be here no more
I don’t wanna be here no more
I don’t wanna be here no moreWouldn’t it be good to be in your shoes
Even if it was just for one day
And wouldn’t it be good if we could wish ourselves away, oh oh oh
Wouldn’t it be good to be on your side
The grass is always greener over there
And wouldn’t it be good if we could live without a careI got it bad, you don’t know how bad I got it
You got it easy, you don’t know when you’ve got it good
It’s getting harder just keeping life and soul together
I’m sick of fighting even though I know I should
I don’t wanna be here no moreWhatever happened to Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark? :roll:
