Moz's most romantic lyrics/lines/words/meanings

oscillate wildly said:
On the high-rise estate
What's at the back of your mind?
Oh, on a three-day debate
On a high-rise estate
What's at the back of your mind?

Two icy cold hands conducting the way
It's the eskimo blood in my veins
Amid concrete and clay
And general decay
Nature must still find a way
So ignore all the codes of the day
Let your juvenile influences sway
This way and that way
This way, that way
God, how sex implores you
To let yourself lose yourself

Stretch out and wait
Stretch out and wait
Let your puny body, lie down, lie down
As we lie, you say
As we lie, you say
Stretch out and wait
Stretch out and wait
Let your puny body lie down, lie down


As we lie, you say :
Will the world end in the night time?
(I really don't know)
Or will the world end in the day time?
(I really don't know)
And is there any point ever having children?
Oh, I don't know
What I do know is we're Here and it's Now


So stretch out and wait
Stretch out and wait
There is no debate, no debate, no debate
How can you consciously contemplate
When there's no debate, no debate
Stretch out and wait
Stretch out and wait
Stretch out and wait

Stretch out and wait
i second this..beside being romatic..its also a very sexy.. song it sprinkles seduction from every line...other songs has single lines but that song: Stretch out and wait on the whole...is the most romantic to me




i also found jack the ripper pretty romatic even if some might find this lyrics disturbing but this one line B]Crash into my arms
I WANT YOU[/B]
especially because in the way he sings this line ..is very "romantic" in search for a better word



Oh, you look so tired
Mouth slack and wide
Ill-housed and ill-advised
Your face is as mean
As your life has been

Crash into my arms
I WANT YOU
You don't agree -
But you don't refuse
I know you

And I know a place
Where no one is likely to pass
Oh, you don't care if it's late
And you don't care if you're lost
And oh, you look so tired
(But tonight you presume too much)
Too much, too much
And if it's the last
Thing I ever do
I'M GONNA GET YOU

Crash into my arms
I WANT YOU
You don't agree -
But you don't refuse
I know you

Crash into my arms
I WANT YOU
You don't agree -
But you don't refuse
I know you

agree with jack or with stretch out?
 
dial a cliche

Further into the fog I fall
Well, I was just
Following you!
When you said :

"Do as I do and scrap your fey ways"
(Dial-A-Cliché)

Last night, maudlin street

Love at first sight
It may sound trite
But it's true, you know
I could list the detail
Of everything you ever wore or said
Or how you stood the day
As we spent the last night
On Maudlin Street

let me kiss you , of course

There's a place in the sun
For anyone who has the will to chase one..AND I
I think I've found mine
Yes, I do believe I have found mine

So, close your eyes and think of someone you physically admire
And let me kiss you, let me kiss you

sunny

Oh, with your jean belt wrapped around your arm
Oh, Sunny, my heart goes out to you
And with a needle pressed onto tight skin
Sunny, I cry when I see where it's taken you

To Me You Are A Work Of Art

I live a life
I feel the pain
To sing this song
To tell the tale
I wish I never even heard the song
I see the world
It makes me puke
But then I look at you and know
That somewhere there’s a someone who can soothe me

To me you are a work of art
And I would give you my heart
That’s if I had one

I see the world
It makes me puke
But then I look at you and know
That somewhere there’s a someone who can soothe me

To me you are a work of art
And I would give you my heart
That’s if I had one, had one

To me you are a work of art
And I would give you my heart
That’s if I had one

Wide To Receive

Download something
Useful, or useless
Because I'm lying here
Wide to receive
Almost anything
You'd care to give
And I don't
Get along with myself
And I'm not too keen
On anyone else
Turn on, plug in
Then just walk away
Unlock, process
And then just go
And I've never felt quite so alone
As I do right now

I'm lying here
Wide to receive
Almost anything
You'd care to leave
Wide, wide, wide
Wide, wide, wide
Wide, wide
Wide, wide
Wide, wide, wide, wide
Wide, wide, wide, wide

Alright, alright, I know Moz didn't WRITE the lyrics to this, but he CHOSE to cover it, and with Moz on lead vocals it truly is the most beautiful love song in the universe.

"Interlude"

Time is like a dream
And now, for a time, you are mine
Lets hold fast to the dream
That tastes and sparkles like wine

Who knows
If its real
Or just something were both dreaming of
What seems like an interlude now
Could be the beginning of love

Loving you
Is a world thats strange
So much more than my heart can hold
Loving you
Makes the whole world change
Loving you, I could not grow old

No, nobody knows
When love will end
So till then, sweet friend ...

Time is like a dream
And now, for a time, you are mine
Lets hold fast to the dream
That tastes and sparkles like wine

Who knows
If its real
Or just something were both dreaming of ?
What seems like an interlude now
Could be the beginning of love
What seems like an interlude now
Could be the beginning of love
What seems like an interlude now
Could be the beginning of love

I believe i agree on this song.. it's sad .. oh love where the hell is it?
 
Something in you caused me to
take a new tact with you
you were going through
something I had just about scraped through
why do you think I let you get away
with the things you say to me?
could it be I like you?
It's so shameful of me / I like you
No one I ever knew
or have spoken to resembles you
this is good or bad
all depending on my general mood
why do you think I let you get away
with all the things you say to me?
could it be I like you?
it's so shameful of me / I like you
Magistrates / who spend their lives
hiding their mistakes
they look at you and I / and
envy makes them cry
envy makes them cry
Forces of containment
they shove their fat faces into mine
but you and I just smile
because we're thinking the same lines
why do you think I let you get away
with all the things you say to me?
could it be I like you?
it's so shameful of me / I like you
because you're not right in the head
and nor am I / and this is why
you're not right in the head
and nor am I / and this is why
this is why I like you
 
'No, it’s not like any other love
This one is different - because it’s us'

'If they dare touch a hair on your head
I’ll fight to the last breath'

All of Late Night, Maudlin Street

'In my own sick way, I'll always stay true to you'

'Oh, the alcoholic afternoons
When we sat in your rooms
They meant more to me
Than any, than any living thing on earth'
 
No, they cannot hurt you, my darling
They cannot touch you now
But me and my 'true love'
Will never meet again

Ice water for blood
With neither heart or spine
And then just, and then just
To pass time; let us go and rob the blind

Mine eyes have seen the glory of the sacred wunderkind
You took me behind a dis-used railway line
And said "I know a place where we can go
Where we are not known"
And then you gave me something that I won't forget too soon
But I can't believe that you'd ever care
And this is why you will never care
But these things take time
I know that I'm
The most inept
That ever stepped
 
oye terence said:
I'd love to


Again
I lay awake
and I cried because of waste
I'd love to
(But only with you
Only with you)
Oh, time is gonna wipe us out
There, I've said it loud and clear
So that you will hear
There's no one in view
Just you
Just you
And time will never wipe you out
Now I've had enough
I've had more than could be
My rightful share
Of nights I can't bear
How can it be fair?
Time must wipe them out
So, again, I lay awake
In a trance
Oh, I just want my chance
But only with you
Only with you
That's all
That's all



song gets me everytime...

Also, Friday Mourning....

So cinematic. Heartbreaking :tears:

"Look once to me, then look away"

I love this line, though I prefer the Live in Earls Court version. Such a small change and it totally breaks my heart: "Look once to me, JUST once to me, and look away"...

I know it was mentioned in another thread but:
And you lounged with knees up and apart,
And me and my heart,
We knew,
We just knew,
Forevermore...
 
Angel, Angel
Don't take your life tonight

I know they take
And that they take in turn
And they give you nothing real
For yourself in return
But when they've used you
And they've broken you
And wasted all your money
And cast your shell aside
And when they've bought you
And they've sold you
And they've billed you for the pleasure
And they've made your parents cry
I will be here
BELIEVE ME
I will be here
Believe me

Angel, Angel
Don't take your life
Some people have got no pride
They do not understand
The Urgency of life
But I love you more than life
I love you more than life
I love you more than life
I love you more than life
:cool:
 
WHATEVER HAPPENS, I LOVE YOU


Names, secret names
But never in my favour
But when all is said and done
It's you I love
Cold loving prose
We stole each other's clothes
But when all is said and done
It's you I love

Yes, yes, yes, oh, yes
Oh no, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes
Oh, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes
Oh ...
Yes, yes ...


Fights for rights
Everyone's oh so quick with advice
And when they've all said their piece
It's still you I love Now just like then


Then, then, then
Then, then, yes, yes
No, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes
Yes, yes, oh ...
Mmm ...
--------------------------------
has this song been posted before?..the words "i love you" may be bleak in other singers repertoire but ib his case/song it isnt ...once again not only the words but the tone in which he sing certain lines like But when all is said and done
It's you I love
Cold loving prose
We stole each other's clothes
But when all is said and done
It's you I love
i find that incredible touching and very romantic...the line We stole each other's clothes o god.:sweet:..he changed that line live (1995) into "We wore each clothes"well if that isnt romantic to wear each other clothes of the person you love....not to forget the " yes, yes ...Oh ... Yes, yes ... " part is very seductive

The most romantic song i have ever heard:
Take me out tonight
Where theres music and theres people
And theyre young and alive
Driving in your car
I never never want to go home
Because I havent got one
Anymore

Take me out tonight
Because I want to see people and i
Want to see life
Driving in your car
Oh, please dont drop me home
Because its not my home, its their
Home, and Im welcome no more

And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten-ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure - the privilege is mine

Take me out tonight
Take me anywhere, I dont care
I dont care, I dont care
And in the darkened underpass
I thought oh god, my chance has come at last
(but then a strange fear gripped me and i
Just couldnt ask)

Take me out tonight
Oh, take me anywhere, I dont care
I dont care, I dont care
Driving in your car
I never never want to go home
Because I havent got one, da ...
Oh, I havent got one

And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten-ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure - the privilege is mine

Oh, there is a light and it never goes out

Also this one:

It's time the tale were told
Of how you took a child
And you made him old

It's time the tale were told
Of how you took a child
And you made him old
You made him old


Reel around the fountain
Slap me on the patio
I'll take it now
Oh ...


Fifteen minutes with you
Well, I wouldn't say no
Oh, people said that you were virtually dead
And they were so wrong


Fifteen minutes with you
Oh, well, I wouldn't say no
Oh, people said that you were easily led
And they were half-right
Oh, they ... oh, they were half-right, oh


It's time the tale were told
Of how you took a child
And you made him old
It's time that the tale were told
Of how you took a child
And you made him old
You made him old


Oh, reel around the fountain
Slap me on the patio
I'll take it now
Ah ... oh ...


Fifteen minutes with you
Oh, I wouldn't say no
Oh, people see no worth in you
Oh, but I do.
Fifteen minutes with you
Oh, I wouldn't say no
Oh, people see no worth in you
I do.
Oh, I ... oh, I do
Oh ...


I dreamt about you last night
And I fell out of bed twice
You can pin and mount me like a butterfly
But "take me to the haven of your bed"
Was something that you never said
Two lumps, please
You're the bee's knees
But so am I


Oh, meet me at the fountain
Shove me on the patio
I'll take it slowly
Oh ...


Fifteen minutes with you
Oh, I wouldn't say no
Oh, people see no worth in you
Oh, but I do.
Fifteen minutes with you
Oh, no, I wouldn't say no
Oh, people see no worth in you
I do.
Oh, I ... I do
Oh, I do
Oh, I do
Oh, I do

...the fact that it was (according to The Songs That Saved Your Life) written "with Johnny Marr in mind" makes it even more beautiful.

I love this song. The way he says "I love you more than life"...I can never just listen to it once.
 
The song, "Only With You"- I melt everytime I hear it.

What?! I thought it was written about a story by Dostoevsky. :tears: Oh! It just reminded me of it so much I thought that was what it was about. :(
