The Test Lyrics
Can you hear me now?
Can you hear me now?
Can you hear me now?
Yeah, am I coming through?
Am I coming through?
Is it sweet and pure and true?
Said he had
Something to show me
I was looking like I'd never seen a face before
Here we go now
Let's slide in through the open door
Circling around me
I'm here on the floor
I'm dreaming this and I'm dreaming that
Regretting nothing
Think about that
Yeah, I'm shining
I'm seeing waves breaking forms on my horizons
Lord, I'm shining
Oh, are you hearing me like I'm hearing you?
Oh, are you hearing me like I'm hearing you?
I can't explain where I've been
You know I almost lost my mind
I can't explain where I've been
You know I almost lost my mind
i couldn't explain what I'd seen
To find that the images are fading away
Yeah I'm shining
I'm seeing waves breaking form on my horizons
Lord, I'm shining
Are you hearing me like I'm hearing you?
Are you hearing me like I'm hearing you?
I can't explain where I've been
You know I almost lost my mind
I couldn't explain the things I've seen
But now I think I see the light
Now I think I see the light
Lend me your hand
Yeah, I'm shining
I'm seeing waves breaking form on my horizons
Lord, I'm shining
Are you hearing me like I'm hearing you?
Are you hearing me like I'm hearing you?
But now I'm home, and I'm free
Did I pass the acid test?
Did I pass the acid test?
Did I pass the acid test?
Did I pass the acid test?
Did I pass the acid test?
(you better go to bed now)
My heart and soul they are free
Come on out
richard ashcroft listened to the music before recording the vocals, but he never wrote them out, the lyrics of the song is what he made up as he recorded the track.
the bit at the end 'did i pass the acid test?' is him asking if he has done ok.
yup...they're trippin......
...ME TOO!!!
I love this song. It's so good to listen to. Also, "..did i pass the acid test x6" - I swear I'm hearing "Did I pass, yes it says"...o.O -Bloogina
It's not "city air"...it's "said he had"...just for future reference...and as for the acid test part...when they play the song on TV, the captions do say acid test...
brilliant, especially when the..bass..?? kicks in after the 2nd verse...BOOM....must be a great song to drive to..providing you're not tripping of course...
This song is great ! Cant stop listenning it ! I hear : "... did i pass the acid test did i pass yes it says .." OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Cankerfr
whats up with the ????... I thought those lines were the easiest to listen to...
Kinda convinient. I'm lying in bed jamming to the "Come with us" CD. Heres this guy tellin me "You better go to bed now" so as the song finishes I pop my head phones and crash right out. Love the song, love the CD, love the group, love the music!
This song is fantastic...all of it! Has anyone else seen the flim clip? Its trippy...lots of weird things going on there but it has a beach, and anything with a beach i adore. The remixes are great in the clubs when i'm out of it
Who does the vocals?
