Lyrics:

There's no other way
In the multitude
Population, neighborhood
I look for you
Do you look for me
It's the only way you're gonna
Get topography, typography, up off the feet
Gotta settle down and watch the dust
Gonna read the book all the rules that must
Sets the time to set the pace
You took me closer
One step closer to that place
You take me one step closer
And now I know we're there
It's better now than ever
Now I know you'll stay

And another way
It's a different world
There's a shining light
And a darkened world
And it waited takes a path
To a different place, different time
Different vibe

You take me one step closer
And now I know we're there
Its better now than ever
Now I know you're here

You take me one step closer
And now I know we're there
Much better now than ever
And now I know you'll stay
Found another way, another added trip, attitude?
There's a population, in the neighborhood
I'm looking for you
You look for me

It's the only way to get
To where we want to be
You take me one step closer
And now I know we're there
Much better now than ever
And now I know you'll stay
You're taking me one step closer

And now I know we're there
It's better now than ever
And now I know you'll stay with me
You're taking me one step closer
And now I know you're there with me
Much better now than ever
And now I know you're here
Thanks for playing some SM. One of my favorite bands. (Did anyone else see the \'Sparkle in The Rain\' tour? It was awesome!)
MORE MORE MORE MORE Simple Minds!!!!
At the time they were most popular, I often found them quite entertaining, but somehow they never became serious competition for U2, a band they were often compared with and who they admired themselves, I believe (OK, music isn't a competition, but as a manner of speaking). Listening to this, they're not even anywhere near to U2 anymore. What a shame for a band that once had such an impact on a lot of people. Of course they can still depend on loyal fans to buy their albums anyway.
yes.
to me ... it sounded a bit like Stereo MC\'s Connected... could have mixed a bit of it on top or under and it would have fit nicely.. not bad... but definately not like the original sound of SM.
So this is new Simple minds! Cool verse treatment but I\'m afraid the chorus sends me right back to generic 80s and kind of spoils the song. Oh well.
This tune caught my attention. Very nice.
most excellent. I am happy to hear these guys return with some outstanding new tunes. they were one of the only 80\'s bands that didnt sound like complete crap, imho.
