R.E.M. - Losing my religion (1991)

Listening to it for the third time in a row now, I just couldn't resist posting this.

Pop music can be so good. 

Sometimes. 

Now. 

Ohhh, 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 spot-light,

losing my religion.

Trying to keep - up - 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 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 spot-light,

losing my religion.

Trying to keep - up - 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
