"Is That What It's All About?" lyrics
"Is That What It's All About?"
Could somebody give me an answer
A solution to fill up my space
As I take a peep out of the hole in my window
I see a land that is filled with disgrace
Now is it me, or did it used to seem better?
Now a tear grows in every man's eye
But the tear never once reached the surface
And the tree which I climbed slowly dies
Is that what it's all about
Hiding our feelings away
Let the problem be that of another man
I'm living my life in this way
Far away from a troubled face
Is that what it's all about?
A cure ain't been found for my problem just yet
Behind the wrought iron gate, it is there, I bet
But the key was a caught in a fisherman's net
With a dolphin the boy wanted for his pet
Well I know I ain't getting no younger
Pretty soon I guess I'll be extinct
And all that I'll leave to remember
Is this question I paused once to think
Is that what it's all about
Hiding our feelings away
Let the problem be that of another man
I'm living my life in this way
Far away from a troubled face
Is that what it's all about?
Put it behind you
Turn a blind eye
Though you always know that it's there
Living your life through the line of defence
I stand for myself
Is that what it's all about?
Well I know I ain't getting no younger
Pretty soon I guess I'll be extinct
And all that I'll leave to remember
Is this question I paused once to think
Is that what it's all about
Hiding our feelings away
Let the problem be that of another man
I'm living my life in this way
Far away from a troubled face
Is that what it's all about?
Is that what it's all about?

Embrace - "Follow You Home" Well sometimes I see an end, disguised as a beginning
And sometimes I feel the force of the blow
And everyday I take my toe and I dip it in the water
Everyday it almost freezes me whole.
It looks...
Stereophonics - "Just Looking" There's things I want
There's things I think I want
There's things I've had
There's things I wanna have
Do I want the dreams?
The ones we're forced to see
Do I want the perfect wife?
But perfect...
Kylie Minogue - "Put Yourself In My Place" I can't take this situation
It's making me feel so blue
One moment you walk into my life
And now you're saying that we're through
I hear that you're in love now
Babe I don't know what to say
I can't...
Olly Murs - "I Found Her" This girl
She dangerous, she lonely in the sky
I see the two of us exploding in my mind
When the night turns to gold
And you're out on your own
Yeah, I'll fight to stay alive
When the buildings are...
Liberty X - "Holding On For You" Sunshine fades to gray
The second I'm away
Minutes turn to hours
Without you
Time keeps marching on
Now summers been and gone
And I'm still here alone
Still waiting.
I'm on my own
A million miles...
