The Shamen

The Shamen were a Scottish electronic music and psychedelic-influenced band from Aberdeen. The founding members are Colin Angus (born 24 August 1961), Derek McKenzie (born 27 February 1964) and Keith McKenzie (born 30 August 1961). Peter Stephenson (born 1 March 1962) joined shortly after to take over keyboards from Colin. Several other people were later in the band. Colin Angus then teamed up with Will Sinnott who together found credibility as pioneers of rock/dance crossover, before moving on to international commercial success when joined by Mr. C with "Ebeneezer Goode" and the Boss Drum 1992 album. more »

No!
Don’t let this heart beat slow
I’ll run to your house
I’ll kiss your door

Dreams
There are dreams on the screen today
Gone are the screams
They’ve taken them all away
Truth
Is the date on the page today
What’s left to learn?
Now fiction is all the rage


By the dim light of a candle
I see your picture it’s hung on the wall
There’s a stranger’s face at the window
You’re not the girl that you were

You keep your heart in a velvet box
In a room
Within a house 
Without a door
When I call 
I will find it locked
With a key
You threw away for evermore
Only this heart beats slow

Wait!
Only thoughts that your lips have shaped
Sold to the world
A language I’ve learned to hate
Wait, shall we wait ‘til the sands run out?
Time, time will tell
That’s something I’m sure about

By the dim light of a candle
I see your picture it’s hung on the wall
There’s a stranger’s face at the window
You’re not the girl that you were

You keep your heart in a velvet box
In a room
Within a house 
Without a door
When I call 
I will find it locked
With a key
You threw away for evermore
You keep your heart in a velvet box
In a room
Within a house 
Without a door
When I call 
I will find it locked
With a key
You threw away for evermore
Only this heart beats slow

Wait!
Don’t let this heart beat slow
I’ll run to your house
I’ll kiss your door
