Sting Unreleased Songs Lyrics
1.You Were Meant For Me

Life was a song
You came along
I lay awake the whole night through

If I should dare
To think you care
This is what I'd say to you

You were meant for me
And I was meant for you

Nature fashioned you
And when she was done
You were all those good things
Rolled into one

You're like a plaintive melody
That never lets me be
I'm content the angels must have sent you
And they meant you just for me

You're like a plaintive melody
That never lets me be
I'm content the angels must have sent you
And they meant you just for me


2.Black and White Army(Bringing The Pride Back Home)

Work up early this morning and I jumped out of bed
I didn't have to wear my work clothes, I put on this shirt
instead
It's a black and white jersey, it's a thing I couldn't hide
'Cos it's almost a religion and I wear it with some pride

Now the streets are all empty in this little town of mine
I was born to make this journey like the ships outside
I've got my ticket to London, and a little bit of cash
I've got this black and white jersey nice and clean for the
match

Now tell me, why is the whole world staring?
Must be the shirt I'm wearing

Black and white army
Bringing the pride back home, we'll be
Bringing the pride back home
Bringing the pride back home
Black and white army

It's been a long hard season, been a long hard year
And they're telling us that we're lucky, so lucky, to be here
But if we all stand together and hold our heads up high
We will raise up our voices and tell it to the sky

This time they can't deny us
This time they won't get by us

Black and white army
Bringing the pride back home, we'll be
Bringing the pride back home
Bringing the pride back home
Black and white army

You'll never understand us if you thought that we'd give up
'Cos it's more than just a game, and it's more than just a cup
'Cos we're marching the length of England and I wouldn't tell no
lie
I'll wear this black and white jersey till the day I die


3.Carrion Prince(O Ye Of Little Faith)

The afternoon has gently passed me by
The evening spreads its sail against the sky
O ye of little faith
You follow in my step
We crumble on the ground before you dry...

The universe is but a question mark
Hangs above my head there in the dark
O ye of little hope
I thought that I could croak
The truth has stretched you far from me,too far...

Oh Pilate, you speak to me so clear
Your voice of hell has filled my soul with fear
O ye of little blood
You call lies in the mud
You hands are always washing them...

The afternoon has gently passed me by
The evening spreads its sail against the sky
O ye of little faith
You follow in my step
We crumble on the ground before you dry...
Oh Pilate, you speak to me so clear
Your voice of hell has filled my soul with fear
O ye of little blood
You call lies in the mud
You hands are always washing them...


4.Conversation With A Dog

I asked my dog what he thought the best in man
He said, 'The love you dispense to me twice daily from a can.'
I said, 'Why do you think my question funny?
And where would you be without my money?'
I said, 'There may be some quality in us you must treasure.'
'It's despair,' he said, 'of which your money is the measure.'

Walk like a dog
Like anybody can

I said, 'What about our politics, philosophy, our history?'
He said, 'If there is something admirable in these it is a
mystery.'
'But there must be something in our system tell me at your
leisure.'
'It's despair,' he said, 'of which your borders are the
measure.'

Walk like a dog
Talk like a man
Walk like a dog
Like anybody can

I said, 'What about technology, computers, nuclear fission?'
'I'm terrified of radiation, hate the television.'
I said, 'There must be something in our scientific treasure.'
'It's despair,' he said, 'of which your weapons are the
measure.'

'Feed me, you can beat me. I will love you till I die.
But don't ask for admiration and don't ever ask me why.'
I said, 'Why wait till now to demonstrate displeasure?'
'It's despair,' he said, 'of which my silence was the measure.'

Walk like a dog
Talk like a man
Walk like a dog
Like anybody can


5.De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da(Spanish Version)

No preguntes mas
Si este amor es verdad
Si es un sueno o realidad
O un simple viaje especial

Quiero que sepas que no miento
Quiero cantarte lo que siento

De do do do De da da da
Te digo con sinceridad
De do do do De da da da
Repito con honestidad
De do do do De da da da
Te busco con loca ansiedad
De do do do De da da da
Te quiero con velocidad

Tu me das el paraiso
En todo lo que yo presiso
persist
Con tus palabras me desliso
En un prufundo precipicio

Quiero que sepas que no miento
Quiero cantarte lo que siento

De do do do De da da da
Te digo con sinceridad
De do do do De da da da
Repito con honestidad
De do do do De da da da
Te busco con loca ansiedad
De do do do De da da da
Te quiero con velocidad

Whoa...
Quiero que sepas que no miento

De do do do De da da da
Repito con honestidad
De do do do De da da da
Te busco con loca ansiedad
De do do do De da da da

6.Every Day's the Same

Every day's
Just the same
Nothing seems to
Happen in this life of mine
Everything's so grey...

In the past
I been down
Now I've got a future
To look forward to
What's there left to say?...

All my thoughts and fantasies
Dreams where I pretend I'm free
Soarin' like an eagle, high and wide...

After birth, nothing's changed
All I get's frustrated
With the way things are
Nothing seems to work...

Pull me here,
Push me there,
Take me 'round the corner
Beat me up, I lose
Nothing but my face...

Maybe I should
Stay in debt
Think of something
In my hat
All been through
This face that's all my own...

Every day's
Just the same
Every day's
Just the same
Every day's
Just the same...

Every day's
Just the same
Nothing seems to
Happen in this life of mine
Everything's so grey...

In the past
I been down
Now I've got a future
To look forward to
What's there left to say?...

All my thoughts and fantasies
Dreams where I pretend I'm free
Soarin' like an eagle, high and wide...

Every day's
Just the same
Every day's
Just the same ...


7.The Mighty

Walking this high road are warriors from an olden time
Curse on this land and the days far behind us
Dragons we e slain, rescued many maiden fair
And no man ever dared break our stride
Or the brotherhood that binds us.

Brothers are we, marching on the roads of time
From this broken land and the days that defined us
All men are free, justice is a sword we hold
Trusting in the knights noble vow
In the brotherhood that binds us.

When the broken are strong
( Freak the mighty, Freak the mighty )
When the beaten are proud
( Freak the mighty, Freak the mighty )
When the twisted can stand
( Freak the mighty, Freak the mighty )
When the silenced can laugh
( Freak the mighty, Freak the mighty )
When the hunted have turned
( Freak the mighty, Freak the mighty )
When the tortured are sane
( Freak the mighty, Freak the mighty )
When the blinded still stare
( Freak the mighty, Freak the mighty )
When the poisoned remain
( Freak the mighty, Freak the mighty )
When the voiceless can sing
( Freak the mighty, Freak the mighty )
And the shackled can run
( Freak the mighty, Freak the mighty )
And this downtrodden man holds his face to the sun
( Freak the mighty, Freak the mighty )
We l be walking high above the world.
( Freak the mighty, Freak the mighty )
Our legend will say

Freak the mighty
Freak the mighty
Freak the mighty
Freak the mighty...


8.I Need You Like This Hole in My Head(From The Dolphins Movie
Soundtrack)

Lady Dolphin and her dolphin beau
Were swimming out to sea one day
All the other lady dolphins smiled
But they were smiling in that subtle dolphin way

So they pretended that they'd pay it no mind
But she was female, of the jealous kind
She couldn't stand it not to ask him why
She could see that he was flattered by the twinkle in his eye

She said, 'How much do you need me?
How much do you need me?
Would you stay with me 'til this ocean floor is dry?
But if you cannot find the words that say
I'm the only one you love that way
I guess we'll have to say goodbye'

He said, 'My love for you is wider than the wide Sargasso Sea
There ain't no bigger number I know, but
I never counted every ripple on the sea.'

He said that words had never failed him yet
'But before our future course is set
I have to find a way to win you dear
But there's two atmospheres of pressure on me here'

'How much do I need you? How much do I need you?
Can't seem to find the words to make you stay
But remember all the things I've said
That I'll love you 'til the day I'm dead
'Cause I need you like this hole in my head
I need you like this hole in my head'


9.January Stars

Ten below and falling fast
Those days of summer were long past
My horoscope said you'd come back
I have my doubts, you see

And as I watched the mercury
And thought about the prophecy
A new moon and an early thaw
I watched the door for you

If January stars came true

And as I gaze at winter stars
The second house conjunct with Mars
They would suggest that we'll be one
I have my doubts, you see

If I maintain a skeptic's eye
And train the other on the sky
I'd eat my hat if it came true
I'd prob'ly eat yours, too

If January stars came true
If January stars came true

Now I'm in a pretty mess
It's getting warmer, I confess
My horoscope said you'd come back
I have my doubts, it's true

And as I watched the mercury
And thought about the prophecy
A new moon and an early thaw
I left the door for you

If January stars,
If January stars came true


10.Muoio Per Te(Mad About You:Italian Version)

( Translated into Italian by Zucchero Fornaciari )

A un passo da Gerusalemme
E a un solo un miglio dalla luna
Sotto un cielo di milioni di stelle
Ho il cuore perso in un pianeta lontano
Che gira intorno e cade gui'
Con archi di tristezza,
Io muoio per te, muoio per te!
E se il mio regno diventa sabbia
E cade in fondo al mare:

Io muoio per te, (io) muoio per te!

E dalla fonde oscure valli
Canzoni antiche di tristezza
Mo ogni passo io pensavo a te
Ogni passo solo te
Per ogni stella un granello di sabbia
Gli avanzi di un asciutto mare
Dimmi, quanto tempo, quanto ancora!

C'e' una citta nel deserto e riposa
La vanita di un antico re
Ma la citta riposa in pezzi,
Dove il vento urla all'avvoltoio
Quello che ha fatto l'uomo
Con l'ambizione, e tutto questo
Faro prigione la mia vita
Se sei la sposa per un altro
Che i miei nemici siano liberi,
Io cado e sono qui,
Che muoio per te, muoio per te!

E solo come mai,
Cosi solo come ora mai!

Con tutti i miei domini
Cosa sono qui
Sono niente cosi
Non ci son vittorie
Nelle nostre storie, senza amor!

A un passo da Gerusalemme
E a un solo un miglio dalla luna
Sotto un cielo di milioni di stelle
Ho il cuore perso in un pianeta lontano
Che gira intorno e cade gui'
Con archi di tristezza,
Io muoio per te, muoio per te!

E anche se hai le chiavi
E distruggi quel che ho
Ogni prigione in polvere
Nemici piu non ho
(E) i regni miei di sabbia mare,
Io muoio per te, muoio per te!


11.Only You(Released On The Brimstone And Treacle Soundtrack)

Only you
Only you
Only you, you, you, only you
Only you
Only you
Only you, you, you, only you
Only you
Only you
Only you, you, you, only you
Only you
Only you
Only you, you, you, only you

We thank you, father in heaven
Who sings all young songs of love
Let us bow before the Messiah
Jesus, save us from the darkness of human hearts
Help us to understand the purpose of Your pain and suffering
Help us to see the beauty of the least of Thy creatures
Impart on us thy infinitely complex mercy
And limit the trespassers!

Only you
Only you
Only you, you, you, only you
Only you
Only you
Only you, you, you, only you

Through the pain and anguish
Bring those who bear hate closer to Thy gentle creation
Reach out ,o Lord, in Thy holy mercy,
And catch this innocent young girl,
The loveliest of Thy peoples
She cried out in the long dark night of her soul
And we who love her on this earth
Can neither hear nor understand!
Only you, o God!
Only You can once again present to her
The warmth of a joyous life,
An innocent world,
A sunshine of laughter,
And the grace of Jesus Christ!
Only You!

Only you
Only you
Only you, you, you, only you
Only you
Only you
Only you, you, you, only you


12.Take Me to the Sunshine

I've been working too hard at the office all year
I've been saving all my days for a break
And I've got to get away with my baby for a time
If it's just for my sanity's sake

Nothing but work and never to play
Make Jack a dull boy or so they say
And nothing in the world gonna make me stay
I've just got to get away for a day

Oh the smog in the city is clogging up my head
And the noise of the traffic and the poison lead
Too many people I must confess
I'm looking for the cure of terminal stress

Take me to the sunshine
Take me to the sun

It's a perfect paradise and it ain't no trick
You can walk, you can run, play golf 'til you're sick
Swim all day, you can dance all night
You can ever fall in love if you're feeling right

The surf will roar and the birds will sing
And the warm wind sighs as you practice your swing
And the cares of the world will fade away as you
Watch the sun setting on a golden bay

They say that modern man needs to find himself
And what's bad for his spirit is bad for his health
And when the world's used up and there's nowhere else
You'll realize Mother Nature is the Commonwealth

Take me to the sunshine
Take me to the sun
Take me to the sun

Take me to the sunshine
Take me to the sun
Take me to the sun

I've been working too hard at the office all year
I've been saving all my days for a break
And I've got to get away with my baby for a time
If it's for my sanity's sake


13.Vengo Del Sur(Why Should I Cry For You:Spanish Version)

Fuerte la luz del sol
Yel oceano fuerte
Asies la piel del sur
Piel de vida y piel de muerte.

Por un desierto mas
Por una selva menos
Esoes su corazon
Yesos son sus manos.

Vengo del sur
Yeso es lo que yo vi
Yeso es lo que encontre
El arco de nos
Perdido en la tormenta.

Vengo del sur
Y todo
Todo me vuelveal sur.

Puedo llorar por ti!
Pero no quiero asi
Quiero luchar contigo
Ya llorare manana.

Vengo del sur.

Del paraisoaquel
Tierra de lechy miel
Donde has nacido tu
Desnudo
Y todo.

Todo me vuelveal sur
Todo me vuelvea ti
Al notres para ti
Yel sur es para nadie.

Vengo del sur
Y todo
Todoal final
Todo me vuelveal sur.
