Lyrics for Wonderful Remark by Van Morrison:
| | | Artist: | Van Morrison |
| | Album: | Miscellaneous | | Track: | Wonderful Remark | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 258 | | | | Lyrics: | How can you stand the silence
That pervades when we all cry?
How can you watch the
violence
That erupts before your eyes?
How can you tell us something
Just to keep us
hangin' on?
Something that just don't mean nothing
When we see it you are
gone
Clinging to some other rainbow
While we're standing, waiting in the cold
Telling
us the same old story
Knowing time is growing old.
That was a Wonderful Remark
I had
my eyes closed in the dark
I sighed a million sighs
I told a million lies - to myself - to
myself
How can we listen to you
When we know your talk is cheap?
How can we
ever question
Why we give more and you keep?
How can your empty laughter
Fill a room
like ours with joy
When you're only playing with us
Like a child does with a toy?
How
can we ever feel the freedom
Or the flame lit by the spark
How can we ever come out
even
When reality is stark?
That was a Wonderful Remark
I had my eyes closed
in the dark - yeah
I sighed a million sighs
I told a million lies - to myself - to
myself
Baby to myse - e - e - elf
(etc. to fade)
