| Dire Straits – The Man's Too Strong Lyrics | 12 years ago |
|
I've always seen it as any one of the lunatics who have lead nations, or been senior in the hierarchy. It seems like the confession allowed to the condemned, the court yard being where the gallows are. The Man is mankind. Mankind is too strong, and always beats the dictators eventually. In the end even his sister and wife betrayed him. |

| Dire Straits – Romeo And Juliet Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| First song I fell in love to, it was our song. Ironically she did do this for me, and fell for the promises someone else offered. 25 years later it still hurts. | |

I got the same when I first discovered this song. The only place I disagree is We talk about it all night long We define our moral ground But when I crawl into your arms Everything comes tumbling down What I see is they both lay out where they stand, and come to an agreement - though that does go with your diplomacy theme. But when the singer (for arguments sake 'he') is in the arms of the other, then his resolve goes, and he can deny her nothing. I see it as a siege (as in walls come tumbling down) |
