Lyrics Empire of the Sun

Empire of the Sun

We Are the People

We can remember swimming in December

Heading for the city lights in 1975

We share in each other

Nearer than farther

The scent of a lemon drips from your eyes

We are the people that rule the world

A force running in every boy and girl

All rejoicing in the world

Take me now, we can try

We lived an adventure

Love in the Summer

Followed the sun till night

Reminiscing other times of life

For each every other

The feeling was stronger

The shock hit eleven, got lost in your eyes

I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave

But I know I try

Are you gonna leave me now?

Can't you be believing now?

I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave

But I know I try

Are you gonna leave me now?

Can't you be believing now?

Can you remember and humanise?

It was still where we'd energised

Lie in the sand and visualise

Like it's '75 again

We are the people that rule the world

A force running in every boy and girl

All rejoicing in the world

Take me now, we can try

I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave

But I know I try

Are you gonna leave me now?

Can't you be believing now?

I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave

But I know I try

Are you gonna leave me now?

Can't you be believing now?

I know everything about you

You know everything about me

We know everything about us

I know everything about you

You know everything about me

We know everything about us

I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave

But I know I try

Are you gonna leave me now?

Can't you be believing now?

I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave

But I know I try

Are you gonna leave me now?

Can't you be believing now?

I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave

But I know I try

Are you gonna leave me now?

Can't you be believing now?
