Modern Men 03:25
There’re all these modern men Not committing to the truth That love’s gonna save them And love’s gonna save me too Come on make fun of me And tell me that I am a fool When all I need is you I can’t make my heart cold when it ain’t I can’t make me stand up when I faint I can’t make the sky green when it’s blue When all I need is you I stood in the rain Saw the sun crash and drown Saw half-starved babies Smiling in their mother’s arm In all of their sadness There never seems to be any use When all I need is you I can’t make my heart cold when it ain’t I can’t make me stand up when I faint I can’t make the sky green when it’s blue When all I need is you I can’t make my heart cold when it ain’t I can’t make me stand up when I faint I can’t make the sky green when it’s blue When all I need is you

All this commotion from here to the ocean In the light saber twilight, here comes my highlight The sun is coming up again I’ve always been a sunrise fan I’m always waiting for this moment to arrive Keep adding up the sum Keep beating on the drum Good days come and go Still enjoying the show Like enjoying the art Of listen to a Mozart record without getting sentimental It’s pink and it’s blue When I’m listening to you Those could be our bruises Or just some lame excuses but Then the sun is coming up at last Your beauty feels a bit grotesque I’m always waiting for this moment to arrive Keep adding up the sum Keep beating on the drum Good days come and go Still enjoying the show Like enjoying the Miles Davis record I’ve found at a jumble sale The sun is coming up again There’s sunrises that never end I’m always waiting for this moment to survive Keep adding up the sum Keep beating on the drum Good days come and go Still enjoying the show Like the time Sting quit The Police and we were crying but it was fake and life goes on

Cairo Air 03:20
We’re riding in a taxi cab through the dusty Cairo air I’m staring out the windowpane playing mental solitaire He’s dragging on his cigarette like sucking poison from a wound he’s swigging on his beer again like he’s got nothing left to lose And he is twirling on his moustache like he’s a southern dandy His pants are stained with fag ash his sisters name is Mandy And his throne’s a broken sofa his court is a dingy hole He’s a king without a joker and his robes are flecked with mould He tells me how the world should be, tells me all I need to know Points his finger in the air curls his lip and taps his toe Party in a hilltop town, pretty girls and a pool dancing with the gay brigade, too drunk to feel a fool الحياة تجعلهم يفكرون أكثر من اللازم، لذالك أصبحت حياتهم و تصرفاتهم عفوية. Disorder in the streets Teargas in the air And up here see us weep As we the hear the curfew bell Disorder in the streets Teargas in the air Thrill of a secret meet stories our friends to tell And he is twirling on his moustache like he’s a southern dandy His pants are stained with fag ash his sisters name is Mandy And his throne’s a broken sofa his court’s a dingy hole He’s a king without a joker and his robes are flecked with mould I wake beside an empty pool sun is baking on my face There she is lying there, my hand around her waist I see the scar upon her knee against the bronze of her skin see the chopper up above is this the point that it begins?

All the tears we meant to cry Are lifting us up Drifting through this dusty night Back to the top We lost something on the way We aren’t ready to give up We found hope on every day We are never Lost We are never We are never Lost No matter how high the cost No matter how low the market of love We are never lost It’s so hard to make you hurt You're tougher than the rest Never lost that smile of yours Never put your face in the dirt We found something on the way We aren’t ready to give up We find hope on every day We are never Lost We are never We are never Lost No matter how high the cost No matter how low the market of love We are never lost Never Never Never Never Never Never We are never lost
