Cat Stevens - The hurt

Tekst :

You say you want to seek the truth, but it s hard to find
No one to help you, your friends don t have the time
So you ride around in your car. switch on the radio
You want to relate to something you once read in a book
What kind of a way to try to take a look

Until I got hurt I was looking, I was on my way
Until I got hurt, until I got hurt, darling I painted my face grey
Until I got hurt, till got hurt, why didn t I
I didn t think of this until I got hurt
Till I got hurt. baby. I didn t know what love is

You say you want to learn to laugh cause music makes you cry
But the tears you shed are only in your eye
So you turn to any phoney mouth with a tale to tell
But he s just a hoaxer don t you know, selling peace and religion
Between his jokes and his karma chewing gum

Until I got hurt, I was looking, I was the same as you
Until I got hurt, until I got hurt, I did not know what to do
Until I got hurt, till I got hurt, why didn t I
I didn t think of this until I got hurt
Till I got hurt, baby, I didn t know what love is

Young son, don t let me down, young son
I m trusting you to keep on, never turn away now
Hold on, never let go, now hold on
Turn your heart to the bright sun
Love will come your way
Cos till you make that final show
You ll never know what love you ve been missing
Missing

You say you want to seek the truth but you work alone
No one to help you and nobody to push you on
So you sit at home drinking your wine, television on
You wait for a miracle, cos you say one day one ll come along
(But wishful thinking, boy) any minute now You might be gone
I d like to help you brother but that would be wrong

Until I got hurt, I was looking, I was on my way
Until I got hurt, until I got hurt, darling I didn t know which way
Until I got hurt, till I got hurt, why didn t I
I didn t think of this until I got hurt
Till I got hurt, baby, I didn t know what love is

Until I got hurt, oh I didn t know what love is

    Start believing

    If you wanna be free
    Start to be just you
    If you wanna beloved
    Start to love you too
    If you wanna be happy
    Start to make it come true
    If you wanna be rich
    Give away to the poor

    [REFRAIN]
    If you wanna believe
    Then start believing...

    Battle

    You thought we d be fine
    all these years gone by
    now your askin us to listen
    well then tell us bout everything
    no lies we re loosin time

    Cause this is a battle
    and its your final last call
    it was a trial, you made a mistake, we know...

    Adultery

    Welcome
    To the red light world
    Come to me child
    And show me what you ve got
    No need to cry
    As you pay
    The price for my greed
    My lust, my hunger

    They came with promises of gold
    But there where things untold
    Your flesh was bought and sold

    And now you dance with the devil at night
    The red lights...

    Jet city woman

    Every time I leave
    you say you won t be there.

    And you re always there.

    Every time I cry your name at night,
    you pull close and say it s alright.

    I look in your eyes, just like the rain.
    Washing me, rain wash over me.

    Touching your face, I feel the heat of your heartbeat
    echo...

    Dancing like making love

    [repeat 4X]
    Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
    Come on
    You look at me and tell me
    I m turning your temperature up
    And you keep touching me in places
    That you know you should not
    You keep on raking on my back
    And kissing me on my neck
    Keep on doing that girl
    And I hope you don...
