Thompson Twins - The Gap Lyrics
Wake up in a strange land, one of forty thievesAnd I see for the first time just what you believeI go down to the market where I can buy or sellAnd listen to the chanting and all the lies the wise ones tellThey say(chorus)East is east, west is westTwo diff'rent colors on the mapWe say break the line, chew the fata keep moving out into the gapBeggars in the back street, there for all the world to leaveIt's you that's begging for attentionWell it's all the same to meAnd I won't ask permission, not from teachers or from kingsCause I can see for myself all the pain that you will bringThey say(REPEAT CHORUS)Hey!(East)...(West)(East)...(West)(East)...(West)(East)...(West)(East)...(West)(East)...(West)(REPEAT CHORUS)Can you smell the perfume of a hundred thousand years?Dare you look into the eyes that hide a hundred million tears?And there's no need to be so fightened of all the figures in the nightCause we share the same emotions and no one's wrong and no one's rightThey say(REPEAT CHORUS x 3
