Crowded House - In The Lowlands Lyrics






Oh, Hell, trouble is coming
Out here in panic and alarm
Black shapes gather in the distance
Looks like it won't take long

The first drops land on the window
The first sign that there's something wrong
Light rain and a head full of thunder
Which way, which way

Two days 'til I get to you
I'll be late if I ever get through
Where I go there'll be no kind welcome
Coming down upon me

Time will keep me warm, feel my face
Now, the insects swarm in the lowlands (lowlands)
Fear will take the place of desire
And we will fan the flames on high
Try for Heaven's sake

The sky fell underneath a blanket
The Sun sank as the miles went by
Sit back with your head on the pillow
When you remember it makes you cry

Ghost cars on the freeway
Like friends that you thought you had
One by one, they're disappearing

Time will keep me warm, feel my face
Now, the insects swarm in the lowlands (lowlands)
Fear will take the place of desire
And we will fan the flames on high

From on higher

    Interesting....I played this album @ home the other day and actually enjoyed all the non - singles but the hidden gems. Like The Beatles...they can do no wrong and with each listen you discover so much more :)

    No hit. this just isn't the type of song that is easily marketed. Too dark and heavy. Don't get me wrong... It's a great song, but it could never have gotten much radio time.

    "When You Come" on the other hand....

  15. S.... S....

    @steph16mtl Nice perspective, although I reckon this one should have been a hit!

    S.... S....

    I was surprised back in 1988 that this wasn't a single. Then again, "Kill Eye", which was the B side of "Better Be Home Soon", could've been a great single

  16. S.... F....

    There's not such thing as an underrated Crowded House song. They are all wonderful

  17. s.... ....

    one of my favorite albums and most definitely one of my favorite songs

  18. S.... S....

    @mojosabien It's the least I could do for my fellow Crowdies!

  19. m.... ....

    many thanks for putting this, my favourite Crowded House number on to you tube, you've done the world a solid sir!!! :-))
