Handsome Furs - Repatriated



Oh man, this song. So catchy! I think I got it as a download from them via email, and I like it way better than "What About Us." I do think its interesting that the song is called "Repatriated"...implying that it happened, but the song says that he'll "never be repatriated." Would it have been better to give the song the title, "Never Be Repatriated"? Or how about "(Never Be) Repatriated".
Where did the future go?
I was feeling down
I was feeling so low
Had to get out
Had to get out parts unknown
Where did the feeling go?
I got it back when the plane touched down
I was over
I was over - oh well
Here it comes
Here it comes
Here it comes
Here it comes
The frozen light
I'll never go back there
It was a lie, a lie
Believin' in it is so, it is so hard
I saw the light
Saw the reconstruction
And I will go, I will go
Out in the heat
And the rush and pushin' when its five at night
Your little heart is gonna beat so
Where did the future go?
Parts unknown
Parts unknown
Your little heart is gonna beat so
Where did the feeling go?
Well, it comes and goes
It comes and goes
Here it comes!
Your little heart is gonna beat so
Where did the feeling go?
Well, it comes and goes
It comes and goes
Here it comes
Here it comes
Blackout
I've seen the future
And its comin' in low
I've seen the future
I will never be repatriated
I've seen the future
And its comin' in low
I've seen the future
I will never be repatriated
I'll never be repatriated
Never be repatriated
Never be repatriated
Never be repatriated
