Other People Are Us Lyrics - Howard Jones

By umberto tozzi 

As sung by howard jones 

I've never been more lonely. 

The night is closing in. 

I wish for monday morning and the people of the town to heal me, 

Opening themselves 

Like flowers to a cruel sun. 

Going thru the motions 

With no chance to show their deep emotion. 

Chorus 

When they sing and cry 

When they live and die 

Can't we see other people, those people are us 

Angels live inside 

Vultures try to hide 

In the mirrors we see other people are us

HOT SONG: Miley Cyrus - 'Mother's Daughter' - LYRICS 

Prime Day concert by Amazon Music will be headlined by Taylor Swift 

The walls are falling down with the breath of an idea. 

See allah in the church and jesus in the mosque. 

Our world is turning. 

Heros leave behind miles (minds? ) of prejudice. 

Cowards try to hold the easiness of our division. 

Chorus 

As the swallows fly thru leaves of africa 

Do they cry as they witness our tears? 

Will the hands of needs become the hand of greed? 

There will be a time when those people are us. 

Chorus x2 

Living in the world of isolation 

Of comfort and tranquility 

But sooner or later in this whole world, those people are us 

Chorus 

Photos 

Yes, we are all the same 

The nations of the world 

Young ones trapped by chemicals, no hope to carry on 

The working families 

Replaced by metal men 

Travelers from the east in their suburban reservations 

We are the victims 

Of the ruling hands 

There will come a time when those people are us 

Chorus
