Something So Right
Heard this song on the plane here. (That reference to China is surely just a coincidence.)
Loved the rather haunting atmosphere; have since checked out the whole album (ahem).

Something So Right
Vocal: Annie Lennox
Album: Medusa
You've got the cool water
When the fever runs high
And you've got the look of love right in your eyes
And I was in a crazy motion
'Till you calmed me down
It took a little time
But you calmed me down
Some people never say the words "I love you"
It's not their style to be so bold
Some people never say the words "I love you"
But like a child they're longing to be told
They've got a wall in China
It's a thousand miles long
To keep out the foreigners, they made it strong
And I've got a wall around me
That you can't even see
It took a little time
To get next to me
If something goes wrong
I'm the first to admit it
The first to admit it --
But the last one to know
If something goes right
Oh well, it's likely to lose me
It's apt to confuse me
Because it's such an unusual sight, oh
I can't get used to something so right
To something so right
Some people never say the words "I love you"
It's not their style to be so bold
Some people never say the words "I love you"
But like a child I'm longing to be told
They've got a wall in China
Hm, yea..
And I've got a wall around me
Yea..
It took a little time
To get next to me
