Y Kant Tori Read

Y Kant Tori Read was a 1980s synthpop band, fronted by singer-songwriter Tori Amos. The band released one album, also called Y Kant Tori Read, which was largely unsuccessful; Atlantic Records abandoned promoting the record completely after only two months of release. The band originally consisted of Amos, Steve Caton, Matt Sorum (later of Guns N' Roses), and bassist Brad Cobb. They worked with record producer Joe Chiccarelli, and Kim Bullard, later of Kajagoogoo.

You went away
Why did you leave me
You know I believed you
Nothing explained
Where are the answers
I know I need you
Tell me is your city paved with gold
Is there hunger
Do your people grow old
Do your governments have secrets that they've sold

Every night I wait take me away
To your floating city
By my window at night
I see the lights to your floating city
Come and take me away
I want to play in your floating city
Floating city

T.V. turns off
Any of us that
Say that we've seen you
Tell me are we
The only planet
That can conceive you
Will we be like Atlantis long ago
So assured that we're advanced
With what we know
That our spirit never had time to grow

Is it weak to look for
Saviors out in space
Little Earth she tries so hard
To change our ways
Sometimes she must get
Sick of this place
