Song Lyrics

5년 전

I was listening to a David Bowie song yesterday, "As the World Falls Down", one of his less well known songs, when I was suddenly struck by how lovely the lyrics are. I don't usually pay much attention to lyrics, as it's the melody and rhythm that I like in songs, maybe because I'm a musician. 


Are there any song lyrics that you really like? 

Does listening to the lyrics in songs help you learn English?


As The World Falls Down 

There's such a sad love
Deep in your eyes.
A kind of pale jewel
Open and closed
Within your eyes.
I'll place the sky
Within your eyes.

There's such a fooled heart
Beatin' so fast
In search of new dreams.
A love that will last
Within your heart.
I'll place the moon
Within your heart.

As the pain sweeps through,
Makes no sense for you.
Every thrill is gone.
Wasn't too much fun at all,
But I'll be there for you-ou-ou
As the world falls down.

Falling.
Falling down.
Falling in love.

I'll paint you mornings of gold.
I'll spin you Valentine evenings.
Though we're strangers 'til now,
We're choosing the path
Between the stars.
I'll leave my love
Between the stars.
