You Know What I Mean - Cults

When the night returns just like a friend When the evening comes to set me free When the quiet house that wait beyond the day Make peaceful sounds in me Took a drag from my last cigarette Took a drink from a glass of old wine I closed my eyes, and I could make it real And feel it one more time Can you hear it, babe Can you hear it, babe From another time From another place Do you remember it, babe And the radio played like a carnival tune As we lay in our bed in the other room When we gave it away for the sake of a dream In a penny arcade, if you know what I mean If you know what I mean babe Here's to the songs we used to sing And here's to the times we used to know It's hard to hold them in our arms again But hard to let them go Do you hear it, babe Do you hear it, babe It was another time It was another place Do you remember it, babe And the radio played like a carnival tune As we lay in our bed in the other room When we gave it away for the sake of a dream In a penny arcade, if you know what I mean If you know what I mean If you know what I mean If you know what I mean If you know what I mean babe

Shouldn't we two be together? You know what I mean To be with you is something like a dream (you know what I mean) And if you want me to I'll bring sunshine to you only You better stop, take a look about You know what I mean If only you could see the dreams, that seem to mean so much to me When you know the reason why I would love to say, "I do" than say "Goodbye", and let you go forever Wouldn't we two be together? Can't you see that I want you (why can't you see?) For me forever Wouldn't we two be together? Do you know what I mean? Can't you read in between the lines? Sometimes I'm talking, and it doesn't seem too clear But, if you have to know (but if you have to know) I'm in love with only you know what I mean (I'm in love) Do you know what I mean? (Know what I mean?) Do you know what I mean? (Do you know what I mean?) Do you know what I mean? (Know what I mean?) Do you know what I mean? (Do you know what I mean?) Do you know what I mean? (Do you know what I mean?) Do you know what I mean? (Do you know what I mean?)

Step off the train all alone at dawn Back into the hole where I was born The sun in the sky never raised an eye to me The blood on the trax and must be mine The fool on the hill and I feel fine Don't look back cos you know what you might see Look into the wall of my mind's eye I think I know, but I don't know why The questions are the answers you might need Coming in a mess going out in style I ain't good-looking but I'm someone's child No one can give me the air that's mine to breathe I met my maker I made him cry And on my shoulder he asked me why His people won't fly through the storm I said 'Listen up man, they don't even know you're born' All my people right here, right now D'You Know What I Mean? All my people right here, right now D'You Know What I Mean? All my people right here, right now D'You Know What I Mean? Yeah, yeah I don't really care for what you believe So open up your fist or you won't receive The thoughts and the words of every man you'll need Get up off the floor and believe in life No-one's ever gonna ever ask you twice Get on the bus and bring it on home to me
