Empire of the Sun - We Are the People Lyrics
We can remember swimming in December,
Heading for the city lights in 1975,
We share in each other,
Nearer than father,
The scent of a lemon drips from your eyes
We are the people that rule the world.
A force running in every boy and girl,
All rejoicing in the world,
Take me now ? we can try.
We lived an adventure
Love in the Summer,
Followed the sun till night
Reminiscing other times of life,
For each every other
The feeling was stronger,
The shock hit eleven ? Got lost in your eyes
I can?t do well when I think you?re gonna leave me,
But I know I try,
Are you gonna leave me now,
Can?t you be believing now.
Can you remember and humanise,
It was still where we?d energised,
Lie in the sand and visualise
Like its 75 again,
I know everything about you,
You know everything about me,
Know everything about us
