History Lyrics

    I wander lonely streets
    I wander lonely streets
    Behind where the old Thames does flow
    Behind where the old thames does flow
    And in every face I meet
    And in every face i meet
    Reminds me of what I have run from
    Reminds me of what i have run from


    In every man, in every hand
    In every man, in every hand
    In every kiss, you understand
    In every kiss, you understand
    That living is for other men
    That living is for other men
    I hope you two will understand
    I hope you two will understand


    I've got to tell you my tale

    Of how I loved and how I failed
    I've got to tell you my tale
    I hope you understand
    Of how i loved and how i failed

    I hope you understand
    I've got to tell you my tale

    Of how I loved and how I failed

    I hope you understand
    I've got to tell you my tale
    These feelings should not be in the man
    Of how i loved and how i failed

    I hope you understand
    In every child, in every eye
    These feelings should not be in the man
    In every sky, above my head

    I hope that I know

    So come with me in bed
    In every child, in every eye
    Because it's you and me, we're history
    In every sky, above my head
    There ain't nothing left to say
    I hope that i know
    When I will get you alone
    So come with me in bed

    Because it's you and me, we're history
    Maybe we could find a room
    There ain't nothing left to say
    Where we could see what we should do
    When i will get you alone
    Maybe you know it's true

    Living with me is like keeping a fool


    Maybe we could find a room
    In every man, in every hand
    Where we could see what we should do
    In every kiss, you understand
    Maybe you know it's true
    That living is for other men
    Living with me is like keeping a fool
    I hope you know that I am me so come on

    I'm thinking about history

    And I'm living for history
    In every man, in every hand
    And I think you know about me
    In every kiss, you understand
    Cause I am
    That living is for other men

    I hope you know that i am me so come on
    And one and one is two
    I'm thinking about history
    But three is company
    And i'm living for history
    When you're thinking about the things you do
    And i think you know about me
    And you're thinking about the things you do
    Cause i am
    I want to tell you my tale

    How I fell in love and jumped out on my bail

    I hope you understand there's more in a smile than in a hand
    And one and one is two
    In every sky, in every kiss
    But three is company
    There's something that I might have missed
    When you're thinking about the things you do

    And you're thinking about the things you do
    Why am I going to
    I want to tell you my tale
    A place that now belongs to you
    How i fell in love and jumped out on my bail
    But you were weak and so was I
    I hope you understand there's more in a smile than in a hand
    Let's pick it up, let's even try
    In every sky, in every kiss
    To live today, so why not smile
    There's something that i might have missed
    Don't dream away your life 'Cause it is mine

    Is that a crime (repeat) this life is mine

    The bed ain't made but it's filled full of hope
    Why am i going to
    I've got a skin full of dope
    A place that now belongs to you
    But you were weak and so was i
    Let's pick it up, let's even try
    To live today, so why not smile
    Don't dream away your life 'cause it is mine
    Is that a crime (repeat) this life is mine
    The bed ain't made but it's filled full of hope
    I've got a skin full of dope
