Signs of Love
Moby Feat. Sinéad O'Connor Lyrics

If I was beautiful
Being physically attractive could make people flock to me.

If I had the time
Having more time could make me more desirable to others.

They'd flock to me
People would come to me if I were perceived as beautiful and had more time.

Bathe me in the wine
Being desired would be like being bathed in luxury and pleasure.

I know that's not the way
I am aware that superficial qualities should not be the sole basis for meaningful relationships.

My baby left
I lost someone I loved.

Gone gone
They are no longer here.

I was always looking
I was searching for something or someone to fill the void left by my lost love.

And I held until the time began
I waited for the right moment or opportunity to strike.

Subtle things come at me
Unexpected incidents or emotions appear in my life.

I look to see where loss had ran
I examine my past experiences to see where my pain or sense of loss has come from.

I can have the sun it come
There are moments of brightness and warmth in my life.

And touch me on my shoulder
I feel these moments of brightness and warmth personally.

Think of all the things that I could
I imagine all the things that could have been done differently or better.

Wish that I had told her
I regret not having said or done something to the person I lost.

I fly so high
I experience moments of joy or elation.

Then fall so low
But these moments are often short-lived and followed by disappointment or sadness.

You would flock to me
If I were more like you, you would appreciate me more.

If I was like you
Being more like you would increase my chances of being accepted or loved.

With nothing to get around
Living a simpler life, without ambition, would be easier and more enjoyable.

Then everything would be beautiful
Simpler living would make everything seem more beautiful and less complicated.

As far as I can see
From my perspective, this is true.

You'd be sitting here with me
If things were different, we could be together, enjoying each other's company.

'Til love's end
We would be together until the end of our lives, in a loving relationship.

Signs of love (i fly so high)
Feeling loved can bring moments of euphoria.

Away we could run (then fall so low)
The highs and lows of love can make us feel like running away or staying together forever.

I can see the light come peering through the sky in my mind
I can sense a bright future or hope in my imagination.

Crazy people come and look at us we're lying on the floor
Others may perceive us as strange or unconventional in our love and expression of it.

I would hold you in my arms until we both are home
I would cherish you and our love until we are both at the end of our journey - wherever that may be.

I would hold you in my arms until we both are old
I want to grow old with you and keep our love strong and alive.
