Catch
Kosheen Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Catch you

You create misery
Have your cake and eat it
Take your place in history
And pray we don't repeat it

Call it faith,
call it back,
call it off
Don't call me later
Lay your head in your bed
It's just how they made it

Out of my way I'm running
I'm gonna catch you if I can
Out of my way I'm coming
I'm gonna catch you if I can

Out of my way I'm running
I'm gonna catch you if I can
Out of my way start running
I'm gonna catch you

It's your day believe it
It's your date with destiny
It's too late to leave it
After all it's your
it's your party
Call it luck, call it faith,
call me beautiful to my face
Call it out to my surprise
It's just how they made it

Out of my way I'm running
I'm gonna catch you if I can
Out of my way I'm coming
I'm gonna catch you if I can

Out of my way I'm running
I'm gonna catch you if I can
Out of my way start running
I'm gonna catch you

Out of my way I'm running
I'm gonna catch you if I can
Out of my way I'm coming
I'm gonna catch you if I can

Out of my way I'm running
I'm gonna catch you if I can
Out of my way start running
I'm gonna catch you

Catch you
Catch you

@user-hq1lg2if3q

Как первый раз услышал песню, сразу начал искать кто поет. Было это лет 15 назад. Сейчас тоже слушаю с болшим удовольствием.

The year is 2002. I bought a CD player and asked a friend to suggest something to listen. He told me that he liked this band - Kosheen. Said I might like it. So I bought the CD "Resist". I only took it out of the player 3 months later. That was one summer I will never forget. Track #3 still throws me back in time.
