One of the most stunning songs ever written! And I will walk you home And I will leave you there I'll take the books you stole And leave the heart that bared - this soul I hope you have what you need (I hope the moon is listening) I hope you have what you need (I gave my soul, my body) I hope you have what you need (I hope the moon is listening) I hope you have what you need (I gave you soul and body) And if things hadn't changed I would have buried you deep in my arms And if things had stayed the same I would have carried you as far as the stars Whatever has us now I can't forget, somehow For, to forget a love, is to regret And, what is love, is regret And, what isn't love is a test And if things hadn't changed I would have buried you deep in my arms And if things had stayed the same I would have carried you as far as the stars Do you believe in love? Do you believe in love? Hold your tongue... Hold your tongue... Do you believe in love? Do you believe in love? Hold your tongue... Hold your tongue... Do you believe in love? Do you believe in love? Hold your tongue... Hold your tongue... Do you believe in love? Do you believe in love? And if things hadn't changed I would have buried you deep in my arms And if things had stayed the same I would have carried you as far as the stars Far far away Whatever has us now I can't forget, somehow For, to forget a love, is to regret...
I saw these 3 times in 2022 (twice in Dublin, once in Vienna). They still play this song. If you can see them live make it your mission, you won't forget it.
Easily my favorite FI song. I love this so much. Such talented individuals whose music is timeless. Thank you infinitely for this recording, KCRW! You all are awesome.
see, the whole cheesy you're-a-musician-and-i-am-a-fan-and-so-i-think-i-love-you thing is so hard to avoid when you've got that man singing that song with those lyrics in it...
