This is a cool 1980s new wave rock song, Reap The Wild Wind, by Ultravox
pR5cjfllaDA
A finger points to show a scene. (Take my hand. Take my hand.)
Another face where mine had been. (Take my hand. Take my hand.)
Another footstep where I once walked. (Take my hand)
Take it all.
Chorus:
You take my hand and give me your friendship.
I'll take my time and send you my slow reply.
Give me an inch and I'll make the best of it.
Take all you want and leave all the rest to die.
Reap the wild wind.
A footprint haunts an empty floor. (Take my hand. Take my hand.)
A fading coat that I once wore. (Take my hand. Take my hand.)
Oh, desolation where I once lived.
I have seen in times gone by.
I have felt a different shadow on the wall,
A stranglehold on a certain feeling.
(Chorus)
Reap the wild wind. (Repeat 2 times)
(Chorus)
Reap the wild wind.
I think the lyrics are trying to suggest that it's hard to be left without the thrill of the past(youth). But it's even harder just listening about it, never lived it.
