The Distance in Your Eyes. Oh No, I’ve Said Too Much

R.E.M.
Losing My Religion

Listen to reason
Reason is calling

R.E.M.
Stand

Oh, life is bigger
It’s bigger
Than you and you are not me
The lengths that I will go to

The distance in your eyes
Oh no, I’ve said too much

I set it up

That’s me in the corner
That’s me in the spotlight
Losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you
And I don’t know if I can do it
Oh no, I’ve said too much
I haven’t said enough

I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

Every whisper
Of every waking hour
I’m choosing my confessions
Trying to keep an eye on you
Like a hurt lost and blinded fool, fool
Oh no, I’ve said too much
I set it up

Consider this
Consider this
The hint of the century
Consider this
The slip that brought me
To my knees failed
What if all these fantasies
Come flailing around
Now I’ve said too much

I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

But that was just a dream
That was just a dream

That’s me in the corner
That’s me in the spotlight
Losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you
And I don’t know if I can do it
Oh no, I’ve said too much
I haven’t said enough

I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

But that was just a dream
Try, cry
Why try?
That was just a dream, just a dream,
just a dream
Dream

Love’s got the world in motion
And I know what we can do
Love’s got the world in motion
And I can’t believe it’s true

New Order
World in Motion

…but I feel it still

Portugal. The Man
Feel it still

That’s great
it starts with an earthquake

R.E.M.
It’s the End of the World as we know it

The hint of the century

I feel the earth move under my feet

Carole King
I Feel the Earth Move

I could feel the whole world
turn round underneath me.

Rod Stewart / The Shotgun Express
I Could Feel The Whole World Turn Round

But that was just a dream
That was just a dream

All I ever wanted,
All I ever needed,
Is here in my arms

Depeche Mode
Enjoy the Silence

The lengths that I will go to
The distance in your eyes
Oh no, I’ve said too much

I’ll tell you what you missed
When the ocean met the sky

Modest Mouse
Ocean Breathes Salty

We’d better think about the games we play
The world went round, around and round

The Cranberries
Time Is Ticking Out

And oh, my dreams
It’s never quite as it seems

The Cranberries
Dreams

And Albert’s vision’s blooming uncontrolled
All his wings are slowly sinking

Counting Crows
Einstein on the Beach

I thought that I heard you laughing

Close your, close your,
close your eyes

Fleetwood Mac
Little Lies

“Every time I look at you, I go blind” – Hootie & The Blowfish – I Go Blind

Take these broken wings,
and learn to fly again,
learn to live so free

Mr. Mister
Broken Wings

Hey, wait,
I got a new complaint,
Forever in debt to your priceless advice…
