Whispers And Moans

Crowded House · Farewell To The World [2007]

Dull, dull grey, the colour of our times

Cool, cool space that I still hope to find

Far beyond the veil, the sound of whispers and moans



Slow time bomb, the clamour of the street

I hear this town it never goes to sleep

And I will catch the taxi driver

Weeping like a wounded beast



Then I wake up in your room, share one piece of your life

When tomorrow comes, we may not be here at all

Without your whispers and moans (whispers and moans)

Here you come to carry me home (whispers and moans)

Here you come to carry me home



Love that sound, time erase, tension wheels, cool heels

Won't you come on and open the bid before too long



Well, I wake up in your room, share one piece of your life

I'd give anything to be a fly upon the wall

And hear your whispers and moans (whispers and moans)

I like to hear your whispers and moans

(Whispers and moans)

Here you come to carry me home



We are the mirrors of each other in a lifetime of suspicion

Cleansed in a moment, a flash of recognition

You gave your life for it

Worth its weight in gold and growing empires

(Whispers and moans)

Art collectors and Alans sound investments

Will one day be forgotten, one day be forgotten, yeah
