Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark - If You Want It Lyrics






One by one the walls come down
Spread the word all over town
Kicking screaming like I’ll drown
Can’t you see I’m fallin
I want you, do you want me
What’s it take to make you see
Like bomb that ticking endlessly
Can’t you hear me calling

Will you, won’t you, come with me
Wishin hoping that you’ll see.

If you want it, it will come
Through the rain and burning sun
Over hills and far away
Nothing stops this, not today
Take a chance on me tonight
Baby it’ll be alright
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
Nothing lost but all the tears and pain

Give me all you've got to give
Live the life you want to live
No point thinking about "what if?"
Come on. Make my day
Tell me what I need to know
If you don’t want this then I’ll go
Insane but I won’t let it show
Don’t let me walk away

Will you, won’t you, come with me
Wishing hoping that you’ll see.

If you want it, it will come
Through the rain and burning sun
Over hills and far away
Nothing stops this, not today
Take a chance on me tonight
Baby it’ll be alright
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
Nothing lost but all the tears and pain

If I could make you start to understand
If I could only make you see
What this all means to me
Let it in inside your heart
Set your mind and spirit free
Show me

If you want it, it will come,
Through the rain and burning sun
Over hills and far away
Nothing stops this, not today
Take a chance on me tonight
Baby it’ll be alright
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
Nothing lost but all the tears and pain

[Repeat]

  1. P.... H....

    Finally I've found it 🤗😀

  2. S.... R....

    The best video!

  3. t.... ....

    I would have thought a video closer to something like "I Get Along" by the Pet Shop Boys would have been way better for this song.  Keep the theatre aspect but give the on stage acting an actual proper acting and story.  Or it could just be all backstage like the PSB video.

    OMD's videos are hit and miss, just like their songs.  This trach though musically is amazing.  One of their best.

  4. R.... M....

    One of the best OMD song! :-)

  5. W.... K....

    Bester OmD Song <3

  6. F.... V....

    Will you won't you, come with me wishin hoping that you'll see.

  7. A.... ....

    Listening to this song 4 years later I still think 'WOW I didn't realize just how sh*t the artists and songs being promoted by big record companies have become ...

  8. L.... ....

    The intro with the "ooooh ooooh" is f****** thrilling!

  9. K.... ....

    Listening to this again and its GORGEOUS! Thank you!

  10. D.... S....

    One by one the walls come down

  13. I.... N....

    comment est ce possible que OMD avec electricity et enola Gay aient pu atteindre un tel génie pour finir avec ces titres sommes toutes ordinaires ? ou est donc passé ce génie de leur début ??

  14. J.... R....

    siwietna muza i morzna sie wniej zainspirowaci oprostu fajowa

    Leni Riefenstahl would enjoy the pictures...

  23. N.... ....

    JUST PERFECT!!!

  24. C.... K....

    omd ich sag nur amazing ....

  25. d.... ....

    This whole album is great. OMD is awesome.

  26. T.... ....

    Following in the footsteps of great 80's bands like Ultravox by reforming, can't believe I found this 2 years after release

  27. m.... n....

    what a voice never changed one of the best 80s ever

  28. M.... K....

    Wow they are Back!

  29. K.... ....

    I personally DONT like the concept of this video. But I do UNDERSTAND it. ANd I am a huge fan of OMD for many years and I think the combination of sound and image in this video is magnificent.

  30. K.... ....

    Hey Hey! :D What about Russia? Huge kiss from there as well! LOVE OMD and always will!

  31. J.... O....

    This dance is unbelievable. It's so perfect. It's such harmony. And a really heartfelt display of human love. It's just great to watch all the dancers, they're all so beautiful, what an honest performance and watching it just kind of breaks down all pre-established judgments on human nature and frees the human soul <3 that's just what I felt from it. This song is so perfect.

  32. c.... e....

    Este video me llena de morbo y lujuria, me provoca un hambre atroz en mi naturaleza bisexual.

  33. 2.... ....

    its sad that i had to find this music myself and its not played on radio or anything

  34. P.... J....

    Ojala se les muera un hijo

  35. x.... ....

    @SlightlyWetFart - Only if you could continue to contribute a wonderful thing that others cannot.

  36. g.... ....

    great song. better than some of their old stuff.

  37. T.... V....

    Simply one of the best bands ever created.

  38. S.... ....

    Old age is a terrible thing

  39. S.... ....

    Echt super Lied

  40. L.... M....

    well now we know who has be watching, so you think you can dance....(insert country's name)

  41. A.... ....

    Bought this album with Christmas money last year and played it to death when I got back to uni. I was on my own in my house because my friend broke her back and stayed at home. I'm not a massive fan of uni anyway so I felt lonelier than ever, but playing this boosted me so much, 'if you want it, it will come...'

  42. d.... ....

    classic OMD sound...and no autotune! :)

  43. T.... A....

    All I can say is welcome back!

  44. m.... e....

    @borisblank Yea, I'm not sure if I like this yet or not. Granted, I just had my first listen but I miss the old stuff like, So In Love, Secrets, Enola Gay, etc. But most new music isn't as good these days no matter how old the band is. Just my opinion.

  69. R.... ....

    @borisblank
