Every Breath You Take*
Police / Sting

Synchronicity, 1983
 

Every breath you take
And every move you make
Every bond you break, every step you take
I'll be watching you

Every single day
And every word you say
Every game you play, every night you stay
I'll be watching you

Oh, can't you see
You belong to me?
How my poor heart aches
With every step you take
Every move you make
Every vow you break
Every smile you fake, every claim you stake
I'll be watching you

Since you've gone I've been lost without a trace
I dream at night, I can only see your face
I look around, but it's you I can't replace
I feel so cold, and I long for your embrace
I keep crying baby, baby, please...

Oh, can't you see
You belong to me?
How my poor heart aches
With every step you take
Every move you make
Every vow you break
Every smile you fake, every claim you stake
I'll be watching you
Every move you make, every step you take
I'll be watching you

I'll be watching you...
 
 

Englishman In New York**
Sting

Nothing Like The Sun, 1987
 

I don't drink coffee I take tea my dear
I like my toast done on the side
And you can hear it in my accent when I talk
I'm an Englishman in New York

See me walking down Fifth Avenue
A walking cane here at my side
I take it everywhere I walk
I'm an Englishman in New York

        I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
        I'm an Englishman in New York
        I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
        I'm an Englishman in New York

If "manners maketh man" as someone said
Then he's the hero of the day
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
Be yourself no matter what they say

        I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
        I'm an Englishman in New York
        I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
        I'm an Englishman in New York

Modesty, propriety can lead to notoriety
You could end up as the only one
Gentleness, sobriety are rare in this society
At night a candle's brighter than the sun

Takes more than combat gear to make a man
Takes more than license for a gun
Confront your enemies, avoid them when you can
A gentleman will walk but never run

If "manners maketh man" as someone said
Then he's the hero of the day
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
Be yourself no matter what they say

        I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
        I'm an Englishman in New York
        I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
        I'm an Englishman in New York



* - обожаю эту песню со школы и до сих пор. Удивительна музыка - абсолютно простая, но как сильно...

   - Стинг в свое время исполнял вариации этой песни: "Every Bomb You Make", посвященную Р.Рейгану, и
     "Every Job You Take", посвященную М.Тетчер

** - очень смешную cover-версию сделали Shine Head - "Jamaican In New York". Одни слова чего стоят! :))
