History (Glastonbury 2008)

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
In every man, in every hand
In every kiss, you understand
That living is for other men
I hope you two will understand
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
In every man, in every hand
In every kiss, you understand
That living is for other men
I hope you two will understand
I hope you know that i am me so come on
I'm thinking about history
And i'm living for history
And i think you know about me
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
I hope you understand there's more in a smile than in a hand
In every sky, in every kiss
There's something that i might have missed
Why am i going to
a place that now belongs to you
But you were weak and so was 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
Is that a crime this life is mine
The bed ain't made but it's filled full of hope
I've got a skin full of ****
The bed ain't made but it's filled full of hope
I've got a skin full of ****
