Get your sweets from the candy man
Get your truth from the shelf
Don't buy into the fairy tale
Just be good to yourself
'Cause you know that I love you, girl
You're my way out of hell
But I've just one more song to sing
One more story to tell
When I'm tired of the bright lights
When I'm tired of the wine
I'll go down to Wheal Mexico
To the depths of the mine
When I'm forty years older
When I'm wrinkled and wise
I will trade all my liberty
For that look in your eyes
R?ason gonna blind you
Cripple and confine you
Listen as your poor h?art breaks
Take a trip to America
Let the wind blow right through your hair
We'll buy beer and some hope to share
Every day
'Cause freedom
Is no small thing
We punish the child for flying too high
For rushing like the wind
Reason gonna blind you
Cripple and confine you
Listen as your poor heart breaks
(Stars are like diamonds, we fly across the sky for them)
(No one's gonna change who we are)
'Cause freedom
Is no small thing
We punish the child for flying too high
For rushing like the wind
The lyrics NO SMALL THING of TEARS FOR FEARS is also present in the album The tipping point (2022)
Tears for Fears è un duo musicale britannico formatosi a Bath nel 1981 da Roland Orzabal (chitarra, voce) e Curt Smith (basso, voce). Il loro sound, caratterizzato da atmosfere synth-pop introspettive e testi che esplorano temi come l'ansia, la depressione e la solitudine, li ha catapultati al successo internazionale negli anni '80. Shout (1985) e Everybody Wants to Rule the World (1985) sono diventate hit planetarie, consacrando il gruppo come uno dei pilastri della new wave. Dopo un periodo di pausa, Tears for Fears ha fatto ritorno con successo negli anni '90 e 2000, pubblicando album come *Elemental* (1993) e *Everybody Loves a Happy Ending* (2004).
