Paul Oakenfold - Southern Sun - Lyrics (Almost Final)

Ok, first of all, sorry to open up another thread, but the other threads are sort of contaminated.
I just heard the full rip of Southern Sun (Solar Stone remix) (<- thank you [TaNGo] ) on an internet radio station, in which the lyrics were pretty clear. I did miss the first part so that still remains a mystery the last part however i'm 95% sure about.
So here we go:

Piece by piece,
I release.
Once was mine/my(?),
now undone(?).

Turn blue like you,
or leave.
And then don't lie,
southern sun.

I still feel you,
beneath my skin.
I am tempted,
to throw my senses in.

Cause it's easier to drown(?).
Learn to face the way I feel sincerity.
When the truth comes back around.

I am tempted,
to throw my senses in.

Cause it's easier to drown(?).
Learn to face the way I feel sincerity.
When the truth comes back around.
In the end you're not for me, you're not for me.


(You) Last night was so undeflating.
I am pieces on the wind, unrelating.


I still feel you,
beneath my skin.
I am tempted,
to throw my senses in.

Cause it's easier to drown(?).
Learn to face the way I feel sincerity.
and the truth comes back around.
In the end you're not for me.

Cause it's easier to drown(?).
In the end you're not for me.

Cause it's easier to drown(?).
In the end you're not for me.

maybe she says 'One soul's mine'? sounds like that...

as far as i know it's correct!!

Sure they are pretty much the same... but it's about the little things now... Personally I think everybody trying to help to get the lyrics right has done a great job. (does that make sense?)

Well anyway, I still think that so far the lyrics in this thread are closest to what thay should be...

Whoa whoa whoa, so the Solar Stone remix is out there to get or was that only on Internet radio???


Posted by discojoe on Mar-09-2002 19:30:

I still feel you
with myself (or beneath my skin.. whatever not clear here)
I'm tempted to throw myself to sea

cause it's easier to drown
than to face the way i feel sincerity
then the truth comes back around
in the end you're not for me

make sense.. sea.. drown


Posted by eieregooie on Mar-09-2002 19:37:

Still don't think it's "to throw myself to sea" It just doesn't sound like that...


Posted by Thierry on Mar-11-2002 20:51:

I'm pretty sure it's "To throw myself to the sea". Also, the end part I don't think she says "Cause it's easier to drown"... rather she says "cause it's easier to have dreamt. In the end you're not for me." HOpe this helps a bit.

I've pretty sure its;
Turn blue like you,
or live.

The first line is correct, Cause it's easier to drown sounds right...but I think that the next line sounds more like Than to face the way I feel sincerity

Ok guys once more: I listened to the solar stone remix in which the lyrics are faaar easier to ID than in the radio rip, so please trust me on most of the lyrics.
100% sure it isn't "throw myself to sea", or they should have used different lyrics in the solar stone remix which i don't think they did
About the "drown" part, i'm not sure about it, that's why i put a question mark behind it. Probably it's not even drown and than that "throw myself to sea" doesn't seem to make sense anymore...

[EDIT] ow yeah, whether it's "learn" or "than", i can't remember but that's not a vital part. Might as well be "than" [/EDIT]

Hi people!

I'm completely new to this forum, but I registered because I experienced the same problem, and may add some interesting stuff to your discussion

I discovered that the lyrics are different for the original version and the Tiesto remix

Here are the lyrics as far as I can decipher them:

Original version:

quote:

Piece by piece I release
once was mine, now undone
Turn blue like New Orleans
and then down like a Southern Sun
I still feel blue beneath my skin
I am tempted to throw myself in sea

Because it's easier to drown,
than to face another day in Southern Sun
and your love is all around

Piece by piece I release
once was mine, now undone
Turn blue like New Orleans
and then down like a Southern Sun

I still feel blue beneath my skin
I am tempted to throw myself in sea

Because it's easier to drown,
than to face another day in Southern Sun
And your love is all around, and in the air to set me free

Set me free..
Set me free..
Set me free..

You last like a song, undeflated
I am pieces on the wind, unrelated

I still feel blue beneath my skin
I am tempted to throw myself in sea

Because its easier to drown,
than to face another day in Southern Sun
And your love is all around, and in the air to set me free

Because its easier to drown,
than in the air to set me free


and the Tiesto remix:

quote:

Piece by piece I release
once was mine, now undone
Turn blue like New Orleans
and then down like a Southern Sun
I still feel blue beneath my skin
I am tempted to throw myself in sea

Because it's easier to ...,
than to face the way I feel since that ordeal
and the truth comes back around

Piece by piece I release
once was mine, now undone
Turn blue like New Orleans
and then down like a Southern Sun

I still feel blue beneath my skin
I am tempted to throw myself in sea

Because it's easier to ...,
than to face the way I feel since that ordeal
and the truth comes back around

In the end to my forgiveness
my forgiveness

You last like a song, undeflated
I am pieces on the wind, unrelated

I still feel blue beneath my skin
I am tempted to throw myself in sea

Because its easier to ...,
than to face the way I feel since that ordeal
and the truth comes back around, and in the air to my forgiveness

Because its easier to ...,
in the air to my forgiveness

my forgiveness

Because its easier to ...,
in the air to my forgiveness
my forgiveness
my forgiveness


I tried to fill in the sentences with words that are most logical to me and make sense, like throw myself in sea and drown etc.

Please mail me if you have more info, I still haven't found the Solar Stone remix, when I find it I will try to decipher that as well

Cheers

to me it sounds like

i am tempted
to throw my senses in
cause its easier to fly (?)
in the air to set me free (?)

It should be "to throw myself IN sea", not to or to the.. because the next line says "it is easier to drown"

otherwise, that wouldn't make any sense, would it?

check my previous post for the complete lyrics, it might lighten up some things

correction...

Taken from tiesto mix....


its:

Piece by piece,
i release.
once was mine,
now undone.

turn blue,
light blue
or leave
and then down like the Southern sun

i still feel blue,
i lift myself,
im tempeted,
to throw myself to the sea...

cos its easier to die,
than to face another day in the southern sun,
and your love is all around.

hey, wot about the second verse??


Posted by Mark on May-04-2002 06:04:

well i kinda just pieced it together. the lyrics i put down are merely what i think is written for the track. as far as sequence and how many repeated verses or choruses goes, who cares?

I'm pretty sure she sings 'blue like New Orleans', at least in the original mix that is, and it sounds the same in the Tiesto mix. I even found that confirmed on pauloakenfold.org
