Van Morrison At The Movies movie - Wonderful Remark lyrics
rate me<br>
How can you stand the silence<br>
That pervades when we all cry<br>
How can you watch the violence<br>
That erupts before your eyes<br>
<br>
You can't even grab a hold on<br>
When we're hanging oh so loose<br>
You don't even listen to us<br>
When we talk it ain't no use<br>
<br>
Leave your thoughtlessness behind you<br>
Then you may begin to understand<br>
Clear the emptiness around you<br>
With the waving of your hand<br>
<br>
That was a wonderful remark<br>
I had my eyes closed in the dark<br>
I sighed a million sighs<br>
I told a million lies to myself, to myself<br>
Ooh oh, ooh oh, ooh oh, ooh oh, ooh oh, ooh oh<br>
<br>
Now, how can we listen to you<br>
When we know that your talk is cheap<br>
How can we never question<br>
Why we give more and you keep<br>
<br>
How can your empty laughter<br>
Fill a room like ours with joy<br>
When you're only playing with us<br>
Like a child does with a toy<br>
<br>
How can we ever feel the freedom<br>
Or the flame lit by the spark<br>
How can we ever come out even<br>
When reality is stark<br>
<br>
That was a wonderful remark<br>
I had my eyes closed in the dark<br>
I sighed a million sighs<br>
I told a million lies to myself, to myself<br>
Ooh oh, ooh oh, ooh oh, ooh oh, ooh oh, ooh oh<br>
<br>
Listen, how can you tell us something<br>
Just to keep us hanging on, yeah<br>
Something that just don't mean nothin'<br>
When we see you, you are gone<br>
<br>
Clinging to some other rainbow<br>
While we're standing waiting outside in the cold<br>
Telling us the same sad story<br>
Knowing time is growing old<br>
<br>
Touch your world up with some colour<br>
Dream you're swinging on a star<br>
Taste it first then add some flavour<br>
Now you know just who you are<br>
<br>
That was a wonderful remark<br>
I had my eyes closed in the dark<br>
I sighed a million sighs, oh yeah<br>
I told a million lies to myself, oh yeah, to myself<br>
Ooh oh, ooh oh, ooh oh<br>
Ooh oh, ooh oh, ooh oh<br>
<br>
Wonderful remark<br>
And that...<br>
<br>
That was a wonderful remark, yes it was, right on<br>
I had my eyes closed in the dark, right on<br>
I sighed a million sighs<br>
I told a million lies to myself, alright, to myself<br>
Ooh oh, ooh oh, ooh oh, ooh oh, ooh oh, ooh oh<br>
<br>
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh<br>
Right on, right on<br>
Oh, oh, oh, oh, cut loose<br>
Cut loose, cut loose<br>
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh<br>
etc.<br>
<br>
