This song makes me feel so good (video and lyrics below). It’s only now that I’m blogging about it and watching the video closely (and repeatedly) that I realise its about about death…and therefore life as well I guess.
I love the feathers, the fans, the landscapes and the embracing of different cultures. There are hints about our inner wisdom (which I’m working with right now) and “believing”, love and adventure and goodness that runs in all our veins. I love the way every time they say “Reminiscing other times of life” my brain wants to swap the words around and say “other life times”…which is quite fitting to the subject matter.
I can listen to it on repeat for a good while. It makes me feel really good.Does it do the same for you?
We can remember swimming in December,
Heading for the city lights in 1975,
We share in each other,
Nearer than father,
The scent of a lemon drips from your eyes
We are the people that rule the world.
A force running in every boy and girl,
All rejoicing in the world,
Take me now we can try.
We lived an adventure
Love in the Summer,
Followed the sun till night
Reminiscing other times of life,
For each every other
The feeling was stronger,
The shock hit eleven
Got lost in your eyes
I can’t do well when I think you’re gonna leave me,
But I know I try,
Are you gonna leave me now,
Can’t you be believing now.
Can you remember and humanise,
It was still where we’d energised,
Lie in the sand and visualise
Like its 75 again,
We are the people that rule the world.
A force running in every boy and girl,
All rejoicing in the world,
Take me now we can try.
I can’t do well when I think you’re gonna leave me,
