- If I Ever Lose My faith In YouVer letra 4:29
[X]You could say i lost my faith in science and progressletra de If I Ever Lose My faith In You
you could say i lost my belief in the holy church
you could say i lost my sense of direction
you could say all of this and worse, but
if i ever lose my faith in you
there'd be nothing left for me to do
Some would say i was a lost man in a lost world
you could say i lost my faith in the people on tv
you could say i'd lost my belief in our politicians
yhey all seemed like game show hosts to me
if i ever lose my faith in you
there'd be nothing left for me to do
i could be lost inside their lies without a trace
but every time i close my eyes i see your face
I never saw no miracle of science
that didn't go from a blessing to a curse
i never saw no military solution
that didn't always end up as something worse, but
let me say this first
if i ever lose my faith in you
there'd be nothing left for me to do - Love Is Stronger Than Justice (The Munificent Seven) 5:09
Composición: Sting - Fields Of GoldVer letra 3:40
Composición: Sting[X]You'll remember me when the west wind movesletra de Fields Of Gold
Upon the fields of barley
You'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we walk in the fields of gold
So she took her love
For to gaze awhile
Upon the fields of barley
In his arms she fell as her hair came down
Among the fields of gold
Will you stay with me, will you be my love
Among the fields of barley
We'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we lie in the fields of gold
See the west wind move like a lover so
Upon the fields of barley
Feel her body rise when you kiss her mouth
Among the fields of gold
I never made promises lightly
And there have been some that I've broken
But I swear in the days still left
We'll walk in the fields of gold
We'll walk in the fields of gold
Many years have passed since those summer days
Among the fields of barley
See the children run as the sun goes down
Among the fields of gold
You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley
You can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When we walked in the fields of gold
When we walked in the fields of gold
When we walked in the fields of gold - Heavy Cloud No RainVer letra 3:46
Composición: Sting[X]Turned on the weather man just after the newsletra de Heavy Cloud No Rain
I needed sweet rain to wash away my blues
He looked at the chart but he looked in vain
Heavy cloud but no rain
Back in the time with louis xvi
At the court of the people he was number one
He'd be the bluest blood they'd ever seen
When the king said hi to the guillotine
The royal astrologer was run out of breath
He thought that maybe the rain would postpone his death
He look in the sky but he look in vain
Heavy cloud but no rain
Well the land was cracking and the river was dry
All the crops were dying when they ought to be high
So to save his farm from the banker's draft
The farmer took out a book on some old witchcraft
He made a spell and a potion on a midsummer's night
He killed a brindled calf in the pale moonlight
He prayed to the sky but he prayed in vain
Heavy cloud but no rain
Heavy cloud but no rain
The sun won't shine till the clouds are gone
The clouds won't go till their work is done
And every morning you'll hear me pray
If only it would rain today
I asked my baby if there'd be some way
She said she'd save her love for a rainy day
I look in the sky but i look in vain
Heavy cloud but no rain - She's Too Good For Me 2:30
Composición: Sting - Seven DaysVer letra 4:39
Composición: Sting[X]"seven days" was all she wroteletra de Seven Days
A kind of ultimatum note
She gave to me she gave to me
When i thought the field had cleared
It seems another suit appeared
To challenge me woe is me
Though i hate to make a choice
My options are decreasing mostly rapidly
Well we'll see
I don't think she'd bluff this time
I really have to make her mine
It's plain to see
It's him or me
Monday i could wait till tuesday
If i make up my mind
Wednesday would be fine, thursday's on my mind
Friday'd give me time, saturday could wait
But sunday'd be too late
The fact he's over six feet ten
Might instill fear in other men
But not in me, the mighty flea (flee?)
Ask if i am mouse or man
The mirror squeaked, away i ran
He'll murder me in time for his tea
Does it bother me at all
My rival is neanderthal it makes me think
Perhaps i need a drink
Iq is no problem here
We won't be playing scrabble for her hand i fear
I need that beer
Monday, i could wait till tuesday
If i make up my mind
Wednesday would be fine, thursday's on my mind
Friday'd give me time, saturday could wait
But sunday'd be too late
Seven days will quickly go
The fact remains, i love her so
Seven days, so many ways
But i can't run away
Monday, i could wait till tuesday
If i make up my mind
Wednesday would be fine, thursday's on my mind
Friday'd give me time, saturday could wait
But sunday'd be too late
Do i have to tell a story
Of a thousand rainy days since we first met
It's a big enough umbrella
But it's always me that ends up getting wet - Saint Augustine In HellVer letra 5:17
Composición: Sting[X]If somebody up there likes me somebody up there caresletra de Saint Augustine In Hell
Deliver me from evil save me from these wicked snares
Not into temptation not to cliffs of fall
On to revelation and lesson for us all
She walked into the room on the arm of my best friend
I knew whatever happened our friendship would end
Chemical reaction desire at first sight
Mystical attraction turned out all my lights
The minute i saw her face, the second i caught her eye
The minute i touched the flame i knew it would never die
I don't know if it's pain or pleasure that i seek
My flesh was all too willing, my spirit guide was weak
I was deadly certain his thoughts for me weren't kind
A switchblade in his pocket, murder on his mind
Blessed st. theresa the whore of babylon
Madonna and my mother all rolled into one
You've got to understand me, i'm not a piece of wood
Francis of assisi could never be this good
The less i need the more i get
Make me chaste but not just yet
It's a promise or a lie i'll repent before i die
The minute i saw her face, the second i caught her eye
The minute i touched the flame i knew it would never die
The minute i saw her face, the second i caught her eye
The minute i touched the flame i knew it would never die
Relax, have a cigar, make yourself at home. hell is full of high court judges, failed saints. we've got cardinals, archbishops,
Barristers, certified accountants, music critics, they're all here. you're not alone, you're never alone. not here you're not. okay,
Break's over.
The less i need the more i get
Make me chaste but not just yet
It's a promise or a lie i'll repent before i die
The minute i saw her face, the second i caught her eye
The minute i touched the flame i knew it would never die
The minute i saw her face, the second i caught her eye
The minute i touched the flame i knew it would never die - It's Probally Me 5:08
Composición: Eric Clapton, Michael Kamen, Sting - Shape Of My HeartVer letra 4:38
Composición: Dominic Miller, Sting[X]He deals the cards as a meditationletra de Shape Of My Heart
And those he plays never suspect
He doesn't play for the money he wins
He doesn't play for respect
He deals the crads to find the answer
The sacred geometry of chance
The hidden loaw of a probable outcome
The numbers lead a dance
I know that the spades are swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
He may play the jack of diamonds
He may lay the queen of spades
He may conceal a king in his hand
While the memory of it fades
I know that the spades are swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
And if i told you that i loved you
You'd maybe think there's something wrong
I'm not a man of too many faces
The mask i wear is one
Those who speak know nothing
And find out to their cost
Like those who curse their luck in too many places
And those who fear are lost
I know that the spades are swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart - Something The Boy SaidVer letra 5:28
Composición: Sting[X]When we set out on this journeyletra de Something The Boy Said
There were no doubts in our minds
We set our eyes to the distance
We would find what we would find
We took courage from our numbers
What we sought we did not fear
Sometimes we'd glimpse a shadow falling
The shadow would disappear
But our thoughts kept returning
To something the boy said
As we turned to go
He said you'll never see our faces again
You'll be food for a carrion crow
Every step we took today
Our thoughts would always stray
From the wind on the moor so wild
To the words of the captain's child
Something the boy said
In the circles we made with our fires
We talked of the pale afternoon
The clouds were like dark riders
Flying on the face of the moon
We spoke our fears to the captain
And asked what his son could know
For we would never have marched so far
To be food for a crow
Every step we took today
Our thoughts would always stray
From the wind on the moor so wild
To the words of the captain's child
Something the boy said
When i awoke this morning
The sun's eye was red as blood
The stench of burning corpses
Faces in the mud
Am i dead or am i living?
I'm too afraid to care, i'm too afraid to know
I'm too afraid to look behind me
At the feast of the crow
We spoke our fears to the captain
And asked what his son could know
For we would never have marched so far
To be food for a crow - Epilouge (Nothing 'Bout Me) 3:41
