Song lyrics

Send "What Else Is There?" ringtones to your cell

It was me on that road
But you couldn't see me 
Too many lights out, but nowhere near here 

It was me on that road 
Still you couldn't see me 
And then flashlights and explosions 

Road's end getting nearer 
We cover distance but not together 
If am the storm, If am the wonder 
And the flashlights, nigthmares 
And sudden explosions 

I don't know what more to ask for 
I was given just one wish 

It's about you and the sun 
A morning run 
The story of my maker 
What I have and what I ache for 

I've got a golden ear 
I cut and I spear 
And What else is there? 
Roads and getting nearer 
We cover distance still not together 

If I am the storm if I am the wonder 
Will I have flashlights, nightmares and sudden explosions 

There is no room where I can go and 
You've got secrets too 

I don't know what more to ask for 
I was given just one wish

Send "What Else Is There?" ringtones to your cell

6 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal Sorry, but, I'm not as pleased as I was with Royksopp's other song, Only This Moment. This one has various abnormalities such as the illegible vocals and the lyrics that don't make much sense. Sorry, I shoudn't even be posting if I've got nothing good to say.

33 posts	no worries, I still think its a good song. It was me on that road but you couldn't see me, too many lights out... not much wrong there (though the explosions bit might be taken in so many ways)

1 posts	the song is deep, I think its from the point of view of someone who died. flashlights and explosions could be related to a car accident maybe? not sure. anyhow its a work of art...

6 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal This song has a haunting quality - it is strong and powereful. Its intensity makes it awe-inspiring and frightening. It is surely one of the best songs to be ever written.

14 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal Yes, it's Karin Dreijer performing the amazing vocals on this song. Want to hear more of her? (I take it you all want to) Then check out "the Knife", absolutely wonderful band where she sings with her brother. A tip for new listeners is their third album called "Deep Cuts". Enjoy!

2 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal this song is ..hmm really amazing.. and very,very interesting vocal of Karin. I loved first album - Melody A.M and honestly after 2001 i was to busy (work, family...) to listenig any music beside some junk in the "RADIO" It was released in 2005 so I'm felling kinda sucks about it..now is 2009- damn!! Even my 2.5 son likes Royksopp...keep it going guys!!
