From her 1987 album, Touch.
Now there’s a wind blowin’ leaves alone the empty street
Down by the place on the corner
Where we used to meet
Two people to proud to give
Afraid of what the heart demands
Two of a kind
We made up our minds to live
Without the ties that bind
Each to each
No surrender
Out of reach
Where not one tender sound was heard
Not a cry or a whisper
No farewell
Nothing spoken
Silence fell while hearts were broken
No one stirred
Was it love?
Did we ever know the meaning of the word?
Now there’s a moon rising in the cold and distant skies
And I can feel it shinin’ down like a lover’s eyes
Don’t know where you are tonight
Or how to tell the things we say
From what we mean
Or why we could never cross the distance in between
Each to each
No surrender
Out of reach
Where not one tender sound was heard
Not a cry or a whisper
No farewell
Nothing spoken
Silence fell while hearts were broken
No one stirred
Was it love?
Did we ever know the meaning of the word?
Don’t know where you are tonight
Or how to tell the things we say
From what we mean
Or why we could never cross the distance in between .
ONE OF HER BEST!~GREAT LYICS!~MANY DON'T KNOW THE MEANING OF THE WORD!
Laura, See you in Heaven, doll. — with a Lotta Love — Ray Shuler & The Doors – 1/4/2018
THIS WAS THE PERIOD YOU COULD UNDERSTAND EVERY WORD IN A SONG!
Excellent as slways
Brilliant song, and album. I still play Touch regularly. She did not get the credit she deserved for this one. Great production by David Kurshabaum, who also did the Tracy Chapman debut the very next year.
The music in this song is truly amazingly beautiful that I can't even begin to describe, just like I can't even begin to describe the beauty of Laura's voice in this very song. My god, it brings tears to my eyes to know that someone so beautiful could produce such a beautiful and unearthly song could be gone. Laura you truly are one of a kind and will ALWAYS be my favourite singer, and in my heart.
CAME BACK FOR ANOTHER PLAY!~GREAT SONG!~LAURA WAS THE GREATEST!
