Jam - Absolute Beginners lyrics

In echoed steps I walked across an empty dream

I looked across this worldthere was no one to be seen

This empty feeling turned and quietly walked away

I saw no warmth in life - no love was in my eyes

I stared a century thinking this will never change

As I hesitatedtime rushed onwards without me

Too scared to break the spell too small to take a fall

But the absolute luck is - love is in our hearts!

I lost some hours thinking of it

I need the strength to go and get what I want

I lost a lifetime thinking of it

An' lost an era daydreaming like I do

In echoed steps you walk across an empty dream

But look around this worldthere's millions to be seen

Come see the tyrants panic see their crumbling empires fall

Then tell 'em we don't fight for fools -

'cos love is in our hearts!

I lost some hours thinking of it

I need the strength to go and get what I want

I lost a lifetime thinking of it

An' lost an era daydreaming like I do

You can lose some hours thinking of it

You need the strength to go and get what I want

You can lose a lifetime thinking of it

And lose an era daydreaming like I do
