Don Henley - Inside job
Tekst :
While you were sleeping
They came and took it all away
The lanes and the meadows
The places where you used to play
It was an inside job
By the well-connected
Your little protest
Summarily rejected
It was an inside job
Like it always is
Chalk it up to business as usual
While we are dreaming
This little island disappears
While you are looking the other way
They ll take your right to own your own ideas
And it s an inside job
Favors collected
Your trusted servants
Have left you unprotected
It was an inside job
Like it always is
Just chalk it up
To business as usual
You think that you re so smart
But you don t have a fucking clue
What those men up in the towers
Are doing to me and you
And they ll keep doin it and doin it
And doin it and doin it
And doin it and doin it
And doin it and doin it
Until we all wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
I know what I ve done wrong
I am acquainted with the night
I know how hard it is
To always walk out in the light
And it s an inside job
To learn about forgiving
It s an inside job
To hang on to the joy of living
They know the road by which you came
They know your mother s maiden name
And what you had for breakfast
And what you ve hidden in the mattress
Insect politics
Indifferent universe
Bang your head against the wall
But apathy is worse
It s an inside job
It s an inside job
It s an inside job
Yeh, yeah
It s an inside job
It s an inside job
It s an inside job
It s an inside job
It s an inside job
It s an inside job Inne utwory
Talking to the moon How bad do you want it Shangri-la Love rules Not enough love in the world The unclouded day Workin it Goodbye to a river Long way home Nobody else in the world but you For my wedding Last worthless evening Through your hands Them and us The heart of the matter Losowe utwory
Here I am
Red high heels
Yellow dress
Perfect nails
Lips like velvet
Don t you want me, baby?
I ve been here and back again
It never answers anything
Where was I when they handed out the knowing you are
loved?
Don t it get lonely out there, little darling...
Once upon a time there was a girl
You really wouldn t call her typical
Had her own definition of cool
She lived in her own world
She had her own style her own rules
She played along like it was usual
Nobody really even knew her name
Her life was one big game
She got her...
I remember you
You’re the one that made my dreams come true
A few kisses ago
I remember you
You’re the one that said I love you too
Didn’t you know
I remember you
A distant bellAnd stars that fell
While you were sleeping
They came and took it all away
The lanes and the meadows
The places where you used to play
It was an inside job
By the well-connected
Your little protest
Summarily rejected
It was an inside...
Heaven knows it s time for us
to wake up with the sun
like a child you kiss my eyes
the tears have come and gone
and now i feel the mist is clearing
and all the clouds will drift away
and there...
