The wounds on your hands never seem to heal
I thought all I needed was to believe
Here am I, a lifetime away from you
The blood of christ, or the beat of my heart
My love wears forbidden colours
My life believes
Senseless years thunder by
Millions are willing to give their lives for you
Does nothing live on?
Learning to cope with feelings aroused in me
My hands in the soil, buried inside of myself
My love wears forbidden colours
My life believes in you once again
I'll go walking in circles
While doubting the very ground beneath me
Trying to show unquestioning faith in everything
Here am I, a lifetime away from you
The blood of christ, or a change of heart
My love wear forbidden colours
My life believes
My love wears forbidden colours
My life believes in you once again
I thought all I needed was to believe
Here am I, a lifetime away from you
The blood of christ, or the beat of my heart
My love wears forbidden colours
My life believes
Senseless years thunder by
Millions are willing to give their lives for you
Does nothing live on?
Learning to cope with feelings aroused in me
My hands in the soil, buried inside of myself
My love wears forbidden colours
My life believes in you once again
I'll go walking in circles
While doubting the very ground beneath me
Trying to show unquestioning faith in everything
Here am I, a lifetime away from you
The blood of christ, or a change of heart
My love wear forbidden colours
My life believes
My love wears forbidden colours
My life believes in you once again

Prefer the instrumental.
WOW! Go William! (I still say Bill in my head) This song has haunted me since I first saw the movie on release, ...my graduating year from high school, ugh
II was just making dinner with fans blasting, pans rattling, and the hair on the back of my neck started to stand up. I ran into the living room and there it was.
William, I hope you read this, you are truly my brother from another mother. We are both snakes, we are both Aries, we both have silly grey beards. And as far as our musical tastes...its like we have the same record collection as a base and then I stopped buying records but you kept going and sharing them with us all. (I once counted a run of 17 songs you played and I own a copy of each.)
Fuck, I think I"m crying....Love you man!
Thank you

The last four songs have been such a sublime wrap-up of this otherwise hectic Saturday… Fantastic mix!
RIP, mr Sakamoto.
