the verve – history lyrics

[verse 1]
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

[chorus]
in every man, in every hand
in every kiss, you understand
that living is for other men
i hope you do understand

[verse 2]
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

[chorus]
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

[verse 3]
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
do you understand?
there’s more in a smile than in a hand

in every sky, in every kiss
there’s one thing that you might have missed
and why am i going to
a place that now belongs to you?
but you were mean and so am 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
it is mine
is that a crime?
is that a crime?
this life is mine
but the bed ain’t made, it’s filled full of hope
i’ve got a skin full of dope
oh the bed ain’t made, but it’s filled through of hope
i’ve got a skin full of dope
