The Passenger - Iggy Pop

Well she calls me up when she's broken Says to leave my front door open I come home to find her smoking With her eyes all fragile and thin She's always been hopeless at hoping Always coped badly with coping And I never know when she's joking She never lets anyone in I know I'm a fool to let her run away with my heart And she'll never tire of these games Loving her is like playing catch in the dark I'm a tear drop in an ocean of flames And we'll drink too much for a wednesday She'll ask me why none of her men stay I tell her just what her friends say It never goes down too well And she'll stay hear til late in the evening But she's always arriving or leaving She never decides to believe in The people who know her so well I know I'm a fool to let her run away with my heart And she'll never tire of these games Loving her is like playing catch in the dark I'm a tear drop in an ocean of flames Well, she says if we're single at 40 We'll get married and move to the country But I know she'll never want me Then it's five fifteen in the morning I reach for her whilst I'm yawning She leaves me with no warning

One went out at a bus stop in Edinburgh One went out in an English pub One went out in a nightclub when I was fifteen Little lights in my heart One went out when I lied to my mother Said the cigarettes she found were not mine One went out within me, now I smoke like a chimney Its getting dark in this heart of mine Its getting dark in this heart of mine We're born with millions of little lights shining in the dark And they show us the way One lights up Every time you feel love in your heart One dies when it moves away One went out in the backstreets of Manchester One went out in an airport in Spain One went out, I've no doubt When I grew up and moved out Of the place where the boy used to play One went out when uncle Ben got his tumour We used to fish, and I fish no more Though he will not return I know one still burns On a fishing boat off the New Jersey shore On a fishing boat off the New Jersey shore We're born with millions of little lights shining in the dark And they show us the way One lights up Every time we feel love in our hearts One dies when it moves away We're born with millions of little lights shining in our hearts And they die along the way 'Til we're old and we're cold And we're lying in the dark 'Cause they'll all burn out one day They'll all burn out one day, oh They'll all burn out one day They'll all burn out one day, yeah, oh

I wanna lay by a lake in Norway I, I wanna walk through Swedish fields of green I want to see the forrests of Finland I, I want to sail on a boat on the Baltic sea I wanna feel a Russian winter I, I want to go to my Polish grandmother's home I wanna see Hungarian lanterns I want to walk on a road that leads to Rome I want to be free as the winds that blow past me Clear as the air that I breathe To be young as the morning and old as the sea I want to lose myself in the Scottish highlands The west coast of Ireland The Cornish breeze I want to rest my bones in the Spanish sunshine The Italian coastline is calling me To be free as the birds that fly past me Light as the fish in the sea To be as wise as the mountains and tall as the trees I want to be sunny and bright as the sunrise Happy and full as the moon I'm fleeting like fireworks, fading too soon

Well how you doing, darling? How you getting on? Any horses running Worth betting on? How's the weather down there? I hope you're keeping warm How you feeling, sweetheart? Are you moving on? Are you sleeping okay Or do the nights go on and on? I hope you're eating well I hope you're staying strong 'Cause I'm fine, then I'm not I'm spinning round and I can't stop I can't do this alone For time flies and it's so slow I'm up and down like a yo-yo I can't do it on my own And I've tried and I can't pull the sword from the stone How are your mum and dad? How's your brother too? My folks are holding up My sister's pulling through And both the cats say hi I know they miss you too 'Cause I'm fine, then I'm not I'm spinning round and I can't stop I can't do this alone For time flies and it's so slow I'm up and down like a yo-yo I can't do it on my own 'Cause I've tried and I can't pull the sword from the stone 'Cause I'm fine, then I'm not I'm spinning round and I can't stop I can't do this alone And time flies and it's so slow I'm up and down like a yo-yo I can't do it on my own See, I've tried and I can't pull the sword from the stone

He's the deflated balloon Wrapped round your gate Cut price to clear and past His sell by date He'll be the fool Running through the church yard Screaming out It's not too late And when he does I know that you'll wait He's the drunk man With bad breath coming on too strong But he's the beauty queen That strings your heart along And he'll answer Every question In your new age magazine wrong But I know you love him strong So I'm leaving For there's nothing to believe in I'm just grieving for a love I never knew Please don't go Misreading me I'm not saying You've been misleading me Just not needing me The way that I need you He's the elephant In the room that never speaks But you dream about him Every two weeks And I wouldn't know his name But you call it in your sleep Oh, I know You love him deep So run back to him Like you should I guess I always knew That you would For he's captured your heart In a way I never could So go on And love him good Oh, I'm leaving For there's nothing to believe in I'm just grieving for a love I never knew You're the book I can't stop reading I'm the stray cat You've been feeding But the tides They are receding now It's true Please don't go Misreading me I'm not saying You've been misleading me Just not needing me The way that I need you Just not needing me The way that I need you

Got a pinch of tobacco in my pocket I'm not gonna roll it, no I'm not gonna smoke it 'til we're Staring at the stars and the rockets Twinkling in the silvery night Two sips of whiskey in the flask, but I'm not gonna drink 'em I swear I'll make it last 'til we're Drinking out of the same glass again And though the sand may be washed by the sea And the old will be lost in the new Well four will not wait for three For three never waited for two And though you will not wait for me I'll wait for you Got a polaroid picture in my wallet I'm not gonna tear it, no, I'm not gonna spoil it It's an unspoken heartbreak A heartbroken handshake I take with me where I go Three words on the tip of my tongue Not to be spoken nor sung Or whispered to anyone 'til I Scream 'em at the top of my lungs again And though the sand may be washed by the sea And the old will be lost in the new Well four will not wait for three For three never waited for two And though you will not wait for me I'll wait for you Oh, whoa And, oh, oh, oh I'll wait for you Oh, whoa And, oh, oh, oh And I'll wait for you Oh, oh Got a pinch of tobacco in my pocket I'm not gonna roll it, no I'm not gonna smoke it 'til we're Staring at the stars and the rockets Twinkling in the silvery night
