Somebody Told Me Lyrics

Somebody told me,

That you walked

All the way here,

Just to find me,

But now you’re here,

We’ve got nothing to say.

Fear and insecurity,

Stole away our dreams

But your face sings songs i’d love to hear

But I don’t know what it means

Should I take your hand and pick you up

And walk off in the sun?

Or we sit in silence and drink our tea,

Then turn our backs to run?

We’ll never know

We’ll never try

We’re growing old and soon we’ll die.

Cos’ somebody told me

That you smile

All through the day time

But you cry at night

When you’re alone

Cos’ you’ve got no one to hold.

Life and love can come and go

Or leave us in the cold

But we’ll freeze to death before we see

What can’t be bought and sold

Should we sing these songs of innocence

Or just close our eyes and hope?

That a better world is possible

If we rise above the smoke?

We’ll never know

We’ll never try

We’re growing old and soon we’ll die.

Somebody told me,

That they saw,

You from afar

And that you’d grown old

And when you died

That there’d be no one to cry

We move so fast we can hardly see

Where we want to go

But we float like leaves and an autumn breeze

We ebb and then we flow

Should we stamp our feet and raise our fists

And fight against the tide?

Or we bow our heads and slowly drowned

Because we never tried?

We’ll never know

We’ll never try

We’re growing old and soon we’ll die.

We’ll never know

We’ll never try

We’re growing old and soon we’ll die.

Somebody told me,

That you walked

All the way here,

Just to find me,

But now you’re here,

We’ve got nothing to say.
