Kiss From a Rose- Seal

"Love remained a drug that's the high and not a pill"

I was looking on Amazon hoping that maybe there would be some free music I could buy since I am so broke that I can't even buy a $4 album.  And today's deal was Seal's self-titled album for $4.  I didn't buy it but it was very tempting.  Probably not as tempting as when Best Coast's latest album was $4.  That one killed me to not buy....oh, well.

I remember this song when I was growing up.  You know, practically the theme song to the amazing 90s Batman movies.  Love it.  But, other than that, it is still a really great song.  My favorite part is the bridge with the different voices almost making a choral sound.  Sort of like a fugue.  Really awesome.


There used to be a graying tower alone on the sea
You became the light on the dark side of me
Love remained a drug that's the high and not the pill
But did you know
That when it snows
My eyes become large and
The light that you shine can be seen

Baby,
I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray
Ooh
The more I get of you
The stranger it feels, yeah
And now that your rose is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the gray

There is so much a man can tell you
So much he can say
You remain
My power, my pleasure, my pain, baby
To me you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny
Won't you tell me is that healthy, baby?
But did you know
That when it snows
My eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen

Baby,
I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray
Ooh, the more I get of you
The stranger it feels, yeah
Now that your rose is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the gray

I've been kissed by a rose on the gray
I've been kissed by a rose
I've been kissed by a rose on the gray
...And if I should fall along the way
I've been kissed by a rose
...been kissed by a rose on the gray

There is so much a man can tell you
So much he can say
You remain
My power, my pleasure, my pain
To me you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny, yeah
Won't you tell me is that healthy, baby
But did you know
That when it snows
My eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen

Baby,
I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray
Ooh, the more I get of you
The stranger it feels, yeah
Now that your rose is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the gray
Yes I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray
Ooh, the more I get of you
The stranger it feels, yeah
And now that your rose is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the gray
Now that your rose is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the gray
