Come Down by Bush

I initially saw the video for this song in MTV, but found was not initially interested about it. That's until I heard the acoustic version of the song that came a part of the Kosovo Benefit album, No Boundaries.

I just love the acoustic version's simplicity. I guess the emotions shine through more with the stripped down version. Sting accompaniment doesn't hurt as well. This song is the primary reason why I coveted the Sixteen Stone album, which i searched for for years.

love and hate, get it wrong
she cut me right back down to size
sleep the day, let it fade
who was there to take your place

no one knows, never will
mostly me but mostly you
what do you say, do you do
when it all comes down

cause i don't want to come back down from this cloud
it's taken me all this time to find out what i need yeah
i don't want to come back down from this cloud
it's taken me all this all this time

there is no blame, only shame
when you beg you just complain
the more i come, the more i try
all police are paranoid

so am i, so's the future
so are you, be a creature
what do you say, do you do
when it all comes down

cause i don't want to come back down from this cloud
it's taken me all this time to find out what i need yeah yeah yeah

i don't want to come back down from this cloud
it's taken me all this all this time

shoot up, shoot up, shoot up you're high

love and hate, get it wrong
she cut me right down to size
sleep the day, let it fade
who was there to take your place

no one knows, never will
mostly me but mostly you
what do you say, do you do
when it all comes down

cause i don't want to come back down from this cloud
it's taken me all this time to find out what i need yeah yeah yeah

i don't want to come back down from this cloud
it's taken me all this all this time
why did you come down
i don't want to come back down from this cloud
