Moby - 18 Album Lyrics

Growing in numbers
Growing in speed
Can't fight the future
Can't fight what I see

People they come together
People they fall apart
No one can stop us now
'Cause we are all made of stars

Efforts of lovers
Left in my mind
I sing in the reaches
We'll see what we find

People they come together
People they fall apart
No one can stop us now
'Cause we are all made of stars

People they come together
People they fall apart
No one can stop us now
'Cause we are all made of stars

Slow slow slow, come come
Someone come come come
Even love is goin' 'round
You can't ignore what is goin' 'round

Slowly rebuilding
I feel it in me
Growing in numbers
Growing in peace

People they come together
People they fall apart
No one can stop us now
'Cause we are all made of stars

People they come together
People they fall apart
No one can stop us now
'Cause we are all made of stars

People they come together
(People they come together)
People they fall apart
(People they fall apart)
No one can stop us now
(No one can stop us now)
'Cause we are all made of stars
(We are all made of stars)

We are all made of stars
People they come together
We are all made of stars
(People they fall apart)
We are all made of stars
(No one can stop us now)
'Cause we are all made of stars
(We are all made of stars)

Lordy don't leave me
All by myself

Good time's the devil
I'm a force of heaven

Lordy don't leave me
All by myself

So many time's I'm down
Down down

With the ground

Lordy don't leave me
All by myself

Whoa, in this world

Lordy don't leave me
All by myself

Lord I want
To be up
In my heart

Be
Ohh
Just in my heart, oh Lord
Just in my heart, oh Lord

I'll use a lock that has no key
Bind you with chains
That no one else can see

Let the water creep over your face
I'll send it in waves
Just to watch you perform the great escape

How long can you hold your breath?
While you hold mine, I'll come and wait
Just to watch you perform the great escape

I'll pull your arms tight behind your back
Use myself as weight
And wonder while you fade

How long can you hold your breath?
While you hold mine, I'll come and wait
Just to watch you perform the great escape

If I was beautiful
If I had the time
They'd flock to me
Bathe me in the wine
I know that's not the way
I know that's not how things are to be

(My baby left)
(My baby left)
(Gone gone)
(Gone gone)

I was always looking
and I held until the time began
Solo things come at me
I look to see where loss had ran
I can have the sun it come
And touch me on my shoulder
Think of all the things that I could
Wish that i had told her

I fly so high
Then fall so low

(I fly so high, I fly so high)

If I was beautiful
If I had the time
You would flock to me
And bathe me in the wine
I know that's not the way
I know that's not how things are to be

If I was like you
With nothing to get around
Then everything would be beautiful
As far as I can see
You'd be sitting here with me
'Till love's end

I fly so high
Then fall so low

I fly so high
Then fall so low

Signs of love (I fly so high)
Away we could run (then fall so low)

I can see the light come peering through the sky in my mind
Closing people come in but also lying on the floor
I would hold you in my arms until we both are home
I would hold you in my arms until we both are all alone

One of these mornings
Won't be very long
You will look for me
And I'll be gone

You leave your home for days and days
And I know, said I know
You got another woman somewhere around

(Instrumental)

Extreme ways are back again
Extreme places I didn't know
I broke everything new again
Everything that I'd owned
I threw it out the window; came along
Extreme ways I know will part the colors of my sea
the perfect colored sea

Extreme ways that help me
They help me out late at night
Extreme places I had gone
That never seen any light
Dirty basements, dirty noise
Dirty places coming on
Extreme worlds alone
Did you ever like it then?

I would stand in line for this
There's always room in life for this

Oh baby, oh baby
Then it fell apart, it fell apart
Oh baby, oh baby
Then it fell apart, it fell apart

Extreme sounds that told me
They held me down every night
I didn't have much to say
I didn't give up the life
I closed my eyes and closed myself
And closed my world and never opened up to anything
That could get me at all

I had to close down everything
I had to close down my mind
Too many things could cut me
Too much could make me blind
I've seen so much in so many places
So many heartaches, so many faces
So many dirty things
You couldn't even believe

I would stand in line for this
there's always room in life for this

Oh baby, oh baby
Then it fell apart, it fell apart
Oh baby, oh baby
Then it fell my heart, it fell apart
Oh baby, oh baby
Then it fell apart, it fell apart
Oh baby, oh baby
Like it always does, always does

(with mc lyte and angie stone)

One things for sure
Well we got soul

It's a jam for the ladies and the superstars
I could leave the whole set but never go too far

If you're from where-ever to where-ever you are

Get yer jam, get it on
Superstar

Jam on

If you're from where-ever to where-ever you are

(MC Lyte, would you put it right)

Everybody moves
I paid my dues
You pick and choose
I stick and move
Yes yes y'all
It ain't gonna stop
The ladies
Keep rippin' the spot
Now men what you heard
'Cause women are comin' up
Keepin' it raw
Sexy and rough
Fly from the top
To the bottom it's gonna be
Cut 'em, gut 'em, we got 'em
It's like the old leagues

It's a jam for the ladies and the superstars
I could leave the whole set but never go too far

(Do it superstar)
(Jam on, jam on)

If you're from where-ever to where-ever you are

(MC Lyte, do it right)

You know I can't stand to be held back (it's so fly)
And all the ladies y'all got my back yeah
Even when we're solo in action
We come together like six sets of jacksons
For the ladies and a superstar
Lyte leave the set but never go too far
I toured the world but i'm rollin' it now
Don't want my girl to brag, eve was holdin' it down
Jam for the ladies, we putting it down
Snatchin' the crown 'cause we fend for high ground

It's a jam for the ladies and the superstars
I could leave the whole set but never go too far

(Jam for the ladies)

(Do it superstar)

Sunday was a bright day yesterday
Dark cloud has come into the way

Sunday was a bright day yesterday
Dark cloud has come into the way

Sunday was a bright day yesterday
Dark cloud has come into the way

Sunday was a bright day yesterday
Dark cloud has come into the way

They sing to the darkest night
Long before

They sing to the darkest night
Long before

Why can't I face it?
Am I too blind to see?
Why did he go?
Why did he leave me?

Sunday was a bright day yesterday
Dark cloud has come into the way

Sunday was a bright day yesterday
Dark cloud has come into the way

Ooh
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

Ooh
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

Why can't I face it?
Am I too blind to see?
Why did he go?
Why did he leave me?

Why can't I face it?
Am I too blind to see?
Why did he go?
Why did he leave me?

Sunday was a bright day yesterday
Dark cloud has come into the way

Sunday was a bright day yesterday
Dark cloud has come into the way

Ooh
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

Ooh
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

Ooh
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

Ooh
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

(Instrumental)

as the sun was set
and the pieces of light touch your hair
perfect love come softly
with the dawn, the dawn
city once full of people
desolate, is desolate
we look back in
to the ruins where we played

at least we were together
holding hands
flying through the sky
at least we were together
holding hands
flying through the sky
sky

touch your hand
you touch the back of my hand
so many empty nights
just waiting for this, for this
standing there
all heading downsteam
unsteady island
we hear nothing, nothing

at least we were together
holding hands
flying through the sky
at least we were together
holding hands
flying through the sky
sky

at least we were together
holding hands
flying through the sky
at least we were together
holding hands
flying through the sky
at least we were together
holding hands
flying through the sky
at least we were together
holding hands
flying through the sky
sky

oh my baby, don't cry
oh my babe, just say goodbye
oh now baby, don't cry
oh my babe, at least we tried

at least we tried to make it
but in these days I'm so confused
oh my love, at least we had it
let me hold on to you

oh my baby, don't cry
oh my babe, just say goodbye
oh now baby, don't cry
oh my babe, at least we tried

at least we tried but we lost it
i will remember
how you stood there and you smiling
and you smile there with me

oh my baby, don't cry
oh my babe, just say goodbye
oh now baby, don't cry
oh my babe, at least we tried

oh my baby, don't cry
oh my babe, just say goodbye, say goodbye
oh now baby, don't cry
oh my babe, at least we tried, ohh
oh my baby, don't cry
oh my babe, just say goodbye
goodbye my baby, don't cry
oh my babe, at least we tried, whoa

(feat. Sinead O'Connor)

the street bears no relief
when everybody's fighting
the street bears no relief
with light so hot and binding

I run the stairs away
and walk into the nighttime
the sadness flows like water
and washes down the heartache
and washes down the heartache

my heart is full
my heart is wide
the saddest song to play
on the strings of my heart

the heat is on its own
the roof seems so inviting
a vantage point is gained
to watch the children fighting

so lead me to the harbour
and float me on the waves
sink me in the ocean
to sleep in a sailor's grave
to sleep in a sailor's grave

my heart is full
my heart is wide
the saddest song to play
on the strings of my heart

my heart is full
my heart is wide, so wide
the saddest song to play
on the strings of my heart

(Instrumental)

Mmmmhmmmmhmmhmmmmm

C'mon give me them hands

Oh wave your hands tonight
Oh wave your hands tonight
C'mon give me them hands
¡¡

all round me burdens
seem to fall
I'm not worried at all
I'm not worried at all

I don't worry
all day long

all round me burdens
seem to fall
I'm not worried at all
I'm not worried at all

just I'm not evil
I just can not see
he told me to pray
just for me

all round me burdens
seem to fall
I'm not worried at all
I'm not worried at all
