Slow Jam - New Order

As I look at the morning sky
Today the wind is blowing hard
See that bird is floating high
Pretty soon it will be tired

I spent a day all by myself
A rich man without his wealth
Sometimes I get it wrong
But I'm not the only one

The afternoon was very clear
The sun was beating down on me
I got thirsty for a beer
Then I had to go to sea

The sea was very rough
It made me feel sick
But I like that kind of stuff
It beats arithmetic

...I don't want the world to change
...I like the way it is
...Just give me one more wish
...I can't get enough of this

...When it gets to be alive
...And not just to survive
...To hit and not to miss
...I can't get enough of this

The early evening mists
Look beautiful to me
Was sweeter than a kiss
I wish you all could see

I'm a long long way from home
But this photograph of you
Even though it's monochrome
Tells me what I should do

So I got up on my feet
I knew it would be alright
For my clothes were looking beat
In the middle of the night

...I don't want the world to change
...I like the way it is
...Just give me one more wish
...I can't get enough of this

...When it gets to be alive
...And not just to survive
...To hit and not to miss
...I can't get enough of this..........
