| First the thunder came then the mountains fell
|
| The heavy sky grew darker, the rising rivers swelled
|
| The earthly hum went silent, every land a lake
|
| But just before oblivion I shook myself awake
|
| I put on my overcoat and I went out into the night
|
| I saw that the stars were still there, just before the light
|
| Like a foal on its feet for the first time
|
| Drinking the whole world in
|
| Awed by a terrible beauty
|
| I heard the whole world sing…
|
| Hey, that’s really something
|
| That’s really something
|
| Oh, we’re living now!
|
| Hey, that’s really something
|
| That’s really something
|
| Yeah, we’re living now!
|
| Born out of nothingness, born of a will to live
|
| Like someone said, «The love you take is equal to the love you give»
|
| From up on the hill the circle spreads its silk like an architect of time
|
| Mapping out the dreams and peculiar follies born of a mental mind
|
| So I put on my overcoat and I step out into the day
|
| I put light on the savage beauty
|
| I hear the whole world say…
|
| Hey, that’s really something
|
| That’s really something
|
| Oh, we’re living now!
|
| Hey, that’s really something
|
| That’s really something
|
| Yeah, we’re living now!
|
| So I put on my overcoat and I slip out into the dawn
|
| All the morning stars, they sing together, happy just to be born
|
| Yeah I put on my overcoat. |
| I’m here just to greet the day
|
| I’m drunk on all this stupid beauty
|
| I hear the whole world say…
|
| Hey, that’s really something
|
| That’s really something
|
| Oh, we’re living now!
|
| Hey, that’s really something
|
| That’s really something
|
| Yeah, we’re living now!
|
| Hey, that’s really something
|
| That’s really something
|
| Oh, we’re living now!
|
| Hey, that’s really something
|
| That’s really something
|
| Yeah, we’re living now!
|
| Hey, that’s really something
|
| Really something
|
| Oh, we’re living now! |
