Yeah, we're not the only ones
Who bleed for the love that's lost
Trust like the air we breathe
Live you've got to lose some sleep

Everything you do for me
Everything I do for you
Everything you do for me
No one else comes close to you

You laugh when the cool gets cold
Cry when the punch lines told
Fall into the arms of God
Pray that your soul's not sold

Change keeps us moving on
Alone as you walk through the crowd
Live, we're gonna lose some sleep
Trust like the air we both breathe

Anything I do for you
Anything you do for me

The way you see the world
The way you see the world
The way you see the world
The way, yeah

Everything you do for me
Everything I do for you

The way you see the world
No one else comes close to you

Ah yeah, ah ha
Ah yeah, ah ha
Ah yeah, ah ha

No one else comes close to you
Ah yeah, ah ha

INXS

INXS (pronounced "in excess", In-XS) were an Australian rock band, formed as The Farriss Brothers in 1977 in Sydney, New South Wales. Mainstays were Garry Gary Beers on bass guitar, Andrew Farriss on guitar and keyboards, Jon Farriss on drums, Tim Farriss on lead guitar and Kirk Pengilly on guitar and saxophone. For 20 years, INXS were fronted by Michael Hutchence on lead vocals, whose "sultry good looks" and magnetic stage presence made him the focal point of the band. Initially known for their New Wave/ska/pop style, they later developed a harder pub rock style, including funk and dance elements. more »
