As long as that


Lyrics: Robert and Grant
Were you born or just conceived?
Whatever comes, crosses me
There's no routine, I've never lived like this
What can I say?
There's lightning on the hill tonight
Over in the west
The colour changes shape and slides
I'm not stuck to be inspired by her or by me
Get this, and how, I'm lifted way way down
Too tired to say too weak to speak
I've got a feeling, sounds like a fact
It's been around as long as that
There is a notion you've got it too
It's been around as long as that
Where can you go?
The thunder settles in and waits
Trams on the rattle
Windows banging shut like gates
Slap my face use your lungs
She brought me more to life
You think I'm young I'm not half those things
Why did it rain?
The days ran away from us
Heaven never knew
The chances that it left for us
Fast and slow, breeze to wind
Wrapped beneath her
You take charge
I'll put you at ease
Too tired to say too weak to speak
I've got a feeling, sounds like a fact
It's been around as long as that
There is a notion you've got it too
It's been around as long as that
What can I say?
There's lightning on the hill tonight
Over in the west
The colour changes shape and slides
Think of someone and double it
That's what I did
Get this and how, I'm lifted way way down
Too tired to say too weak to speak
I've got a feeling, sounds like a fact
It's been around as long as that
There is a notion you've got it too
It's been around as long as that
As long, as long, as long,
As long as that
What's wrong, what's wrong, what's wrong
What's wrong with that

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

The Go-Betweens were an indie rock band formed in Brisbane, Australia, in 1977 by singer-songwriters and guitarists Robert Forster and Grant McLennan. Over the years they collaborated with musicians like Lindy Morrison (drums), Robert Vickers (bass) and Amanda Brown (violin, oboe, guitar and backing vocals). After a first phase of activity that ended in late 1989, Forster and McLennan reunited the band in 2000 with a new lineup. McLennan's death from a heart attack in 2006 led to the definitive dissolution of The Go-Betweens. Their sound is characterized by catchy melodies, introspective lyrics and influences from post-punk and Australian folk music. Among the most representative songs: "Cattle and Cane", "Streets of Your Town" and "Lee Remick".
