Johnny Clegg
Naked In The Rain
I feel nervous about these times, she said
It's like the beginning of the fall of Rome
I feel lost on this rising tide, she said
Of superhighways and genetic clones
And I miss you like mad
When you go away
And I fear the things I read about
These coming days
A digital picture wired to the moon
A chemical sister
You know she's coming soon
A virtual lover always waiting there for you
And the human touch, she said
Fades into the blue
[Chorus]
I feel blue
I feel strange
I feel naked in the rain
And I know
In this world
Very little stays the same
If you could see me now
Would you remember my name?
'Cause I could never forget you
I could never forget you
I could never forget you
I could never forget you
[Verse 2]
A software prophet said the other day
This the final ride we're on our way
Like a weapon ready to unleash its load
We're genetically coded to decode our code
And I miss you like mad
When you go away
And I fear the things we read about
These coming days
[Chorus]
I feel blue
I feel strange
All these pictures in my brain
'Cause I know
In this world
I can never go back again
All those times
All those moments
Lost forever
Like tears in the rain
But I could never forget you
I could never forget you
I could never forget you
I could never forget you
I feel new
I feel strange
I feel naked in the rain
And I know
In this world
Very little stays the same
But I could never forget you
I could never forget you
I could never forget you
I could never forget you
