Dire Straits - So Far Away Lyrics

Dire Straits - So Far Away Video

Here I am again in this mean old town

And you're so far away from me

Now where are you when the sun goes down

You're so far away from me

 

You're so far away from me

So far I just can't see

You're so far away from me

You're so far away from me

All right

 

I'm tired of being in love and being all alone

When you're so far away from me

I'm tired of making out on the telephone

'Cause you're so far away from me

 

You're so far away from me

You're so far I just can't see

You're so far away from me

You're so far away from me

All right

 

And I get so tired when I have to explain

When you're so far away from me

See you've been in the sun and I've been in the rain

And you're so far away from me

 

You're so far away from me

You're so far I just can't see

You're so far away from me

You're so far away from me

Check it out

 

So far away

You're so far away from me

(You're so far)

All right

(You're so far)

Yes, you're so far away from me

Dire Straits - Where Do You Think You're Going Lyrics

Dire Straits - Where Do You Think You're Going Video

Where d'ya think you're going

Don't you know it's dark outside

Where d'ya think you're going

Don't you care about my pride

Where d'ya think you're going

I think a you don't know

You got no way of knowing

There's really no place you can go

 

I understand your changes

A-long before you reach the door

I know where you think you're going

I know what you came here for

And now I'm sick of joking

You know I like you to be free

A-where d'ya think ya going

I think you better go with me girl

 

You say there is no reason

But you still find cause to doubt me

If you ain't with me girl

You're gonna be without me

 

Where d'ya think you're going

Don't you know it's dark outside

Where d'ya think you're going

I wish I didn't care about my pride

And now I'm sick of joking

You know I like you to be free

A-where d'ya think ya going

I think you better go with me girl

I want my, I want my MTV

Look at that mama, she got it stickin' in the camera

Oh, man we could have some fun

 

And he's up there, what's that? Hawaiian noises?

He's bangin' on the bongos like a chimpanzee

Oh, that ain't workin' that's the way you do it

Get your money for nothin' and your chicks for free

 

We gotta install microwave ovens

Custom kitchen deliveries

We gotta move these refrigerators

We gotta move these color TV's

Dire Straits - Romeo And Juliet Lyrics

Dire Straits - Romeo And Juliet Video

Narrator:

A lovestruck Romeo sings the streets a serenade

Laying everybody low with a love song that he made

Finds a street light, steps out of the shade

Says something like, You and me babe, how about it?

 

Juliet says, Hey it's Romeo, you nearly gave me a heart attack

He's underneath the window, she's singing, Hey la, my boyfriend's back

You shouldn't come around here, singing up at people like that

Anyway, what you gonna do about it?

 

Romeo:

Juliet, the dice was loaded from the start,

And I bet, then you exploded in my heart,

And I forget, I forget, the movie song

When you gonna realize, it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?

 

Come up on different streets, they both were streets of shame,

Both dirty, both mean, yes and the dream was just the same,

And I dreamed your dream for you, and now your dream is real

How can you look at me as if I was just another one of your deals?

 

Well you can fall for chains of silver, you can fall for chains of gold

You can fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold

You promised me everything, you promised me thick and thin yeah

Now you just say, Oh Romeo, yeah, you know I used to have a scene with him

 

Juliet, when we made love you used to cry

You said I love you like the stars above, I'll love you till I die

There's a place for us, you know the movie song

When you gonna realize, it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?

 

I can't do the talk like the talk on the TV

And I can't do a love song, like the way it's meant to be

I can't do everything, but I'll do anything for you

I can't do anything 'cept be in love with you

 

And all I do is miss you, and the way we used to be

All I do is keep the beat, the bad company

And all I do is kiss you, through the bars of a rhyme

Julie, I'd do the stars with you, anytime

 

Ah Juliet, when we made love you used to cry

You said I love you like the stars above, I'll love you till I die

There's a place for us, you know the movie song

When you gonna realize, it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?

 

Narrator:

And a lovestruck Romeo he sings the streets a serenade

Laying everybody low, with a love song that he made

Find a convenient streetlight, steps out of the shade

And says something like, You and me babe, how 'bout it?

 

Romeo:

You and me babe, how about it?
