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 r
ight 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
