dcdeb Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 ....His father's back Sittin' along (alone?) a road and it's so sad Now he cries Every day .......and show the way There's a girl Her momma's gone She .... a good man who couldn't care at all Now she cries Every day To forget about her mother She runs away *chorus* How much do you love me How much do you care How much do you need me When I'm not there How much do you love me How much do you care How much do you miss me When I'm not there Do do do do do ...etc Angel's smile? ....? ....and get what... I'm not a ... to... Good love never met her (?) And now I'm gone... *CHORUS* I love you more, I love you more...etc. *CHORUS* That's what I get...The second verse is very hard to understand. You're just a step ahead of me, Hannah! I think it starts with, "There's a boy..." And before "...show the way" it sorta sounds like "... find a father..." And the second part, I think I hear something about "carry on" not "care at all" ... But otherwise I have gaps where you have gaps -- the second verse IS impossible! dcdeb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kjoshi Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 Oh, ok. But someone said "Missionary man", so... Yeah I think some people thought (including me) that people were mixing up names or something...but now people are saying that they were talking about a cover...which is prob what it was Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romis Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 Well, I'm getting confused right now! Me too...he might have covered the eurythmics but... does he have a new song besides How much do you love me? named century man? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christine Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 I listened again and added in more..... His father's back He's leaving on the road and it's so sad Now he cries Every day Just tell him....love and show the way There's a girl Her momma's gone She's got an old man who couldn't care at all Now she cries Every day To forget about her mother She runs away *chorus* How much do you love me How much do you care How much do you need me When I'm not there How much do you love me How much do you care How much do you miss me When I'm not there Do do do do do ...etc Angel's smile? ...and learn? To lose all the love and get what hurts I'm not a boy to...it all? Good love never met her And now I'm gone... *CHORUS* I love you more, I love you more...etc. *CHORUS* He's alternately singing about a boy and a girl so I think the first line is "there's a boy" to match "there's a girl". I'm getting "...not a boy to forget it all. Gotta love every minute from when I was born..." But don't listen to me because I can't understand Mika's lyrics at the best of times. It's not a non-English speaking thing believe me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a non-English speaking thing believe me! perhaps it's about a boy who feels like a girl, or a girl who feels like a boy...xDDDD:roftl: anyway...if you don't know, I know less because I suck at english listening....

kjoshi Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 Me too...he might have covered the eurythmics but...does he have a new song besides How much do you love me? named century man? He only sang it once at an acoustic gig after GMA. No one was allowed to record it or anything so no one but the people at the concert heard it.

Hannah Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 I've listened to it about 10 times now, and along with suggestions of some of you, I'm getting more complete lyrics: There's a boy His father's back He's leaving on the road And it's so sad Now he cries Every day Just tell him that a father... (I think the problem here is that Mika flubs the words a bit) And show the way There's a girl Her momma's gone She's found another man Who couldn't care at all Now she cries Every day To forget about her mother She runs away How much do you love me How much do you care How much do you need me When I'm not there How much do you love me How much do you care How much do you miss me When I'm not there Do do do do do... ... To heal and learn To lose all her love And get what hurts I'm not a boy To lead it on Good love never left me And now I'm gone *chorus* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
