The yearning lyrics

Maybe I don’t want the things
That you chase in life
Maybe I don’t need the things
That you create
It’s all in the time we’ve spent
Between you and me
And it’s all I’ll ever need.

When you said that you were mine
You never set a length of time
And though I travelled round the world
Youd be there for my return
Maybe you don’t understand
When you have your way
A love without intent to change
Did no one tell you of the yearning
The yearning
The yearning for you now

And thought you’ve travelled round the sun
To bring you back
Where we begun
On that forgotten shore
Where I will wait forever more
Forever in the yearning
The yearning
The yearning for you now

By myself without you

As I walk the halls of memory
Where the chiseled past is stone
And the weight upon my shoulders
Pressing me into unknown
I don’t want the pain to tell me
That I need the things I’m shown
All these hand me down emotions
That I still don’t want to know
But I don’t feel the way you feel it
I don’t feel the falling down
I don’t feel the way it used to
And I can’t say it out loud
All the memories now are burning
Leaving me to stop the hurting
Am I by myself without you
You can never leave me now
Don’t wanna hear about it

 

When it feels like it’s forever
I know only here and now
haul your ship across the ranges
til you learn to put it down
when you wrap your arms around me
I wish I could feel them now
all the times that you are with me
and I’m still alone somehow
But I don’t feel the way you feel it
I don’t feel the falling down
I don’t feel the way it used to
And I can’t say it out loud
To know the lessons aren’t the learning
And the pain is not the hurting
When I’m by myself without you
I can never leave you now
Don’t wanna hear about it

All right
Well I like the way you ride that wave
I like the way you turn that phrase
all right
all right
it’s all right
alright

well I like the way you ride that train
I like the way you make it rain
All right
It’s all right
It’s all right
It’s all right

Mama I can sympathise
With all those things you push aside
I know why you tell no likes
I can feel the way it makes you feel
All right
There’s no need to compromise,
hiding what you still can’t hide
I know all the reasons why
I can feel the way it makes me feel.
All right

Well I like the way you ride that wave
I like the way you turn that phrase
It’s all right
It’s all right
it’s all right
it’s alright

pushing buttons with you mouth
swallowing your best foot down
all you do is scream and shout
nothing ever really makes you feel
all right

looking for someone to hold you
to do those things they never told you
all those myths they went and sold you
only you can choose to make it real
all right
it’s all right, it’s all right

Well I like the way you ride that wave
I like the way you turn that phrase
all right
all right
it’s all right
alright

well I like the way you ride that train
I like the way you make it rain
All right
It’s all right
It’s all right
It’s all right

What do you do when your friends gone mad
And it’s the best time they’ve ever had
She said she only dreamed she’d been awake
Had to get up before it got too late
So she kept on running and kept on running
She rolled me over like a 2 week millionaire
What do you do when the world’s gone mad
And it’s the best time you’ve ever had
saw myself walk out the door
I kept on running and I kept on running
Hey hey hey hey
New arrivals
Hey hey hey hey
to survival
hey hey hey hey
my my my
she rolled me over like a 2 week millionaire
Pass me a bottle
I’ll leave you the key
You can tell them where I’ll be
Somewhere in that high country
Where the lovin’s easy
and the living free
Hey hey hey hey
New horizons
Hey hey hey hey
Older wiser
Hey hey hey hey
My my my
Hey Hey hey hey
She rolled me over like a 2 week millionaire
