It lay buried here. It lay deep inside me.
It's so deep I don't think that I can speak about it.
It could take me all of my life,
But it would only take a moment to
Tell you what I'm feeling,
But I don't know if I'm ready yet.
You come walking into this room
Like you're walking into my arms.
What would I do without you?
Take away the love and the anger,
And a little piece of hope holding us together.
Looking for a moment that'll never happen,
Living in the gap between past and future.
Take away the stone and the timber,
And a little piece of rope won't hold it together.
If you can't tell your sister,
If you can't tell a priest,
'Cause it's so deep you don't think that you can speak about it
To anyone,
Can you tell it to your heart?
Can you find it in your heart
To let go of these feelings
Like a bell to a Southerly wind?
We could be like two strings beating,
Speaking in sympathy...
What would we do without you?
Two strings speak in sympathy.
Take away the love and the anger,
And a little piece of hope holding us together.
Looking for a moment that'll never happen,
Living in the gap between past and future.
Take away the stone and the timber,
And a little piece of rope won't hold it together.
We're building a house of the future together.
(What would we do without you?)
Well, if it's so deep you don't think that you can speak about it,
Just remember to reach out and touch the past and the future.
Well, if it's so deep you don't think you can speak about it,
Don't ever think that you can't change the past and the future.
You might not, not think so now,
But just you wait and see--someone will come to help you.
It's so deep I don't think that I can speak about it.
It could take me all of my life,
But it would only take a moment to
Tell you what I'm feeling,
But I don't know if I'm ready yet.
You come walking into this room
Like you're walking into my arms.
What would I do without you?
Take away the love and the anger,
And a little piece of hope holding us together.
Looking for a moment that'll never happen,
Living in the gap between past and future.
Take away the stone and the timber,
And a little piece of rope won't hold it together.
If you can't tell your sister,
If you can't tell a priest,
'Cause it's so deep you don't think that you can speak about it
To anyone,
Can you tell it to your heart?
Can you find it in your heart
To let go of these feelings
Like a bell to a Southerly wind?
We could be like two strings beating,
Speaking in sympathy...
What would we do without you?
Two strings speak in sympathy.
Take away the love and the anger,
And a little piece of hope holding us together.
Looking for a moment that'll never happen,
Living in the gap between past and future.
Take away the stone and the timber,
And a little piece of rope won't hold it together.
We're building a house of the future together.
(What would we do without you?)
Well, if it's so deep you don't think that you can speak about it,
Just remember to reach out and touch the past and the future.
Well, if it's so deep you don't think you can speak about it,
Don't ever think that you can't change the past and the future.
You might not, not think so now,
But just you wait and see--someone will come to help you.

first verse and second , first person
It lay buried here, it lay deep inside me.
It's so deep I don't think that I can
Speak about it.
It could take me all of my life
But it would only take a moment to
Tell you what I'm feeling
But I don't know if I'm ready yet.
You come walking into this room
Like you're walking into my arms,
What would l do with out you?
Take away the love and the anger
And a little piece of hope holding us together
Looking for a moment that'il never happen
Living in the gap between past and future
Take away the stone and the timber
And a lit tle piece of pope won't hold it together.
the person has something to say but can't and it is destroying there relationship and is afraid of losing the other person because there is nothing holding the relationship together
third verse, second person
If you can`t tell your sister
If you can't tell a priest
'Coz it's so deep you don't think that you can
Speak about it to anyone................
Can you teil it to your heart?
Can you find it in your heart
To let go of these feelings
L ike a beli to a Southerly wind
we could be like two strings beating,
Speaking in sympathy................
What would we do without you?
Two strings speak m sympathy.
the second person want them to let out what is being held back. so they can move forward but knows that they can not.
last verse both people
Take away the love and the anger
And a little piece of hope holding us together
Looking for a moment that'Il never happen
Living in the gap belween past and future
Take away the stone and the timber
And a little piece of rope won't hold it together
We're building a house of the future together
(What would we do without you?)
Well, if it's so deep you don't think that you
Can speak about it
Just remember to reach out and touch the past and the future.
Well, if it's so deep you don't think you can speak about it
Don't ever think that you can't change the past and the future.
You might not, not think so now
But just you wait and see-someone will come to help you.
there is to much between them and the first person knows that it will not work. the second person knows that things can not be changed but you can get the help to make it work,.
Just a thought
Somebody need to let the site know when they screw up lyrics.
Sometimes its like my wife was writing them. She's the worst at Lyrigurgitation I know. She thought Bryan Ferry was singing about "safety valves" instead of "Slave to Love."
Erm.... that would be little piece of Hope, not pope or rope or soap or dope...
Though any might work...
if you look at the Sensual World lyrics in the inner album sleeve , it is
CHORUS:
Take away the love and the anger
And a little piece of hope holding us together
Looking for a moment that'il never happen
Living in the gap between past and future
Take away the stone and the timber
And a little piece of rope won't hold it together.
I love this song, no real idea what it means but it sounds good. I love the chorus. "What would we do without you?"
