+ LyricsWhen you get older, plainer, saner
Will you remember all the danger
We came from?
Burning like embers, falling, tender
Longing for the days of no surrender
Years ago
And will you know
[Pre-Chorus]
So smoke 'em if you got 'em
Cause it’s going down
All I ever wanted was you
I’ll never get to heaven
Cause I don’t know how
[Chorus]
Let’s raise a glass
Or two
To all the things I’ve lost on you
Ho, ooh
Tell me are they lost on you?
Ooh, oh
Just that you could cut me loose
Ho, ooh
After everything I’ve lost on you
Is that lost on you?
Hoooooh
Ooh, oh
Hoooooh
Is that lost on you?
Hoooooh
Ooh, oh
Baby, is that lost on you?
Is that lost on you?
[Verse 2]
Wishin' I could see the machinations
Understand the toil of expectations
In your mind
Hold me like you never lost your patience
Tell me that you love me more than hate me
All the time
And you’re still mine
[Pre-Chorus]
So smoke 'em if you got 'em
Cause it’s going down
All I ever wanted was you
Let's take a drink of heaven
This can turn around
[Chorus]
Let’s raise a glass
Or two
To all the things I’ve lost on you
Ho, oh
Tell me are they lost on you?
Ooh, oh
Just that you could cut me loose
Ho, oh
After everything I’ve lost on you
Is that lost on you?
Hoooooh
Ooh, oh
Hoooooh
Is that lost on you?
Hoooooh
Ooh, oh
Baby, is that lost on you?
Is that lost on you?
[Outro]
Let's raise a glass
Or two
To all the things I’ve lost on you
Ho, oh
Tell me are they lost on you
Ooh, oh
Just that you could cut me loose
Ho, oh
After everything I’ve lost on you
Is that lost on you?
Is that lost on you?
Postoje dva načina na koje je moguće gledati priču o Tarzanu.
Prvi je klasičan. Dečak koji je ostao bez roditelja u sred nemilosrtdne džungle kojeg su spletom čudnih okolnosti našle i odgojile gorile. Kao takva, to nije jedinstvena priča. Imamo i priču o džungli, mit o Romulu i Remu, i mnoge druge čak i starije priče koje se baziraju na istoj stvari. Ova je samo smeštena u period kolonijalizacije Afrike...
Drugi pogled na priču je pomalo ličan, te okrenut ka jednom čoveku. Naime, imamo dečaka koji raste okružen drugom decom koja su nalik njemu, ali se opet u mnogome razlikuju. Dečak pokušava da se prilagodi tome, ali mu uistinu ne ide jer nije u svetu koji nije namenjen njemu. U tom slučaju, gorile bi bile metafora za društvo, a Tarzan za jedan poseban deo slagalice koji se ne uklapa. Potom, dolazimo do trenutka gde on otkriva da postoje ljudi nalik njemu. Prvo ostaje začuđen, a potom se, prirodno i zaljubljuje.
How much of my mother has my mother left in me?
How much of my love will be insane to some degree?
And what about this feeling that I'm never good enough?
Will it wash out in the water, or is it always in the blood?
How much of my father am I destined to become?
Will I dim the lights inside me just to satisfy someone?
Will I let this woman kill me, or do away with jealous love?
Will it wash out in the water, or is it always in the blood?
I can feel love the I want, I can feel the love I need
But it's never gonna come the way I am
Could I change it if I wanted, can I rise above the flood?
Will it wash out in the water, or is it always in the blood?
How much like my brothers, do my brothers wanna be?
Does a broken home become another broken family?
Or will we be there for each other, like nobody ever could?
Will it wash out in the water, or is it always in the blood?
I can feel love the I want, I can feel the love I need
But it's never gonna come the way I am
Could I change it if I wanted, could I rise above the flood?
Will it wash out in the water, or is it always in the blood?
I can feel the love I want, I can feel the love I need
But it's never gonna come the way I am
Could I change it if I wanted, can I rise above the flood?
Will it wash out in the water, or is it always in the blood?
