History
by The Verve

I wander lonely streets
Behind where the old Thames does flow
And in every face I meet
Reminds me of what I have run from
In every man, in every hand
In every kiss, you understand
That living is for other men
I hope you two will 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
Of how I loved and how I failed
I hope you understand
These feelings should not be in the man
In every child, in every eye
In every sky, above my head
I hope that I know
So come with me in bed
Because it´s you and me, we´re history
There ain´t nothing left to say
When I will get you alone
Maybe we could find a room
Where we could see what we should do
Maybe you know it´s true
Living with me is like keeping a fool
In every man, in every hand
In every kiss, you understand
That living is for other men
I hope you know that I am me so come on
I´m thinking about history
And I´m living for history
And I think you know about me
Cause I am
And one and one is two
But three is company
When you´re thinking about the things you do
And you´re thinking about the things you do
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
In every sky, in every kiss
There´s something that I might have missed
Why am I going to
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
Behind where the old Thames does flow
And in every face I meet
Reminds me of what I have run from
In every man, in every hand
In every kiss, you understand
That living is for other men
I hope you two will 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
Of how I loved and how I failed
I hope you understand
These feelings should not be in the man
In every child, in every eye
In every sky, above my head
I hope that I know
So come with me in bed
Because it´s you and me, we´re history
There ain´t nothing left to say
When I will get you alone
Maybe we could find a room
Where we could see what we should do
Maybe you know it´s true
Living with me is like keeping a fool
In every man, in every hand
In every kiss, you understand
That living is for other men
I hope you know that I am me so come on
I´m thinking about history
And I´m living for history
And I think you know about me
Cause I am
And one and one is two
But three is company
When you´re thinking about the things you do
And you´re thinking about the things you do
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
In every sky, in every kiss
There´s something that I might have missed
Why am I going to

Let´s pick it up, let´s even try
