We'll let the songs do the talking ...
Hardly noticed
You would have hardly noticed me there / I never once got up from my chair / I spent an hour engrossed in my book / You didn’t ever bother to look / You never ever bothered to look
You would have hardly noticed me there / The way I gently ruffled my hair / The care I all-so-obviously took / You didn’t ever bother to look / You never ever bothered to look
But when the moon shines bright upon the water / So soft she leaves her footprints in the sand / And all around the gifts I never brought her / The hopes and fears she’s never understand
You would have hardly noticed I’d gone / No notion where I might have come from / No sense of all the trouble I took / You didn’t ever bother to look / You never ever bothered to look
Only human
Something about the way I’m meant to hide it / Something about the words I’m not to say / Something about the way I’m s’possed to ride it / Assumes this is a game I want to play
However hard I try to make you feel good / However hard I try to make you feel right / You know that I can’t always make you feel good / You know I cannot always get it right
Chorus: It seems I must remind you that I’m human / You prick me, not surprisingly I bleed / Forgive me once again for being human / And in need / Whatever you say I’m only human / And that’s OK
Tell me about the pressure that you’re under / Tell me about the things that make you feel sad / Tell me do you ever stop and wonder / If you’re the only one to feel so bad
My life has a rock for you to build on / A rock you could depend on day to day / A rock which many dreams were born and killed on / A rock that’s slowly crumbling away
Chorus: It seems I must remind you that I’m human / You prick me, not surprisingly I bleed / Forgive me once again for being human / And in need / Whatever you say I’m only human / And that’s OK
Asking for the world
Where shall we go now? / Where’s there left to hide? / Come the final showdown / What’s there left inside?
All I’ve ever known / All I’ll ever know / When it’s all been counted / There’s not much to show
Why when we were new / Our thoughts would fly like the birds / But we’re not looking to return / No we’re not asking for the world
All there’s ever been / All there’ll ever be / Rising to the summit / There for all to see
Why when we were new / Our thoughts would fly like the birds / But we’re not looking to return / No we’re not asking for the world
Now you’re talking
Why you talking 'bout what you eat? / Why you talking ‘bout who you meet? / Why you talking ‘bout where you go? / Why you talking ‘bout who you know? / I’m not talking ‘bout what I eat / I’m not talking ‘bout who I meet / I’m not talking ‘bout where I go / I’m not talking ‘bout who I know
Why you talking ‘bout what you wore? / All the people and what they saw / Why you talking ‘bout what you’ve done? / Don’t you care about anyone? / I’m you talking ‘bout what I wear / I don’t mind that I’ve got no hair / I’m not talking ‘bout what I’ve done / I’m not trying to be the one
All the things I have been / All the things I have seen / All the things I could be / Now you’re talking ‘bout me, oh oh, oh oh / Now you’re talking ‘bout me, oh oh, oh oh
Why you worried ‘bout what they say? / They don’t care a damn anyway / All this trouble so you can be / Just a minor celebrity / I’m not worried ‘bout what they say / They don’t care a damn anyway / I’m not troubled to try and be / Just another celebrity
All the things I have been / All the things I have seen / All the things I could be / Now you’re talking ‘bout me, oh oh, oh oh / Now you’re talking ‘bout me, oh oh, oh oh |
