Echo & the Bunnymen are an English post-punk group formed in Liverpool in 1978. The original line-up consisted of Ian McCulloch, Will Sergeant and Les Pattinson, supplemented by a drum machine assumed by many to be "Echo", though the band denies this. In the 1982 book Liverpool Explodes!, Will Sergeant explains in an interview: "We had this mate who kept suggesting all these names," says Will, "like The Daz Men or Glisserol and the Fan Extractors. Echo and the Bunnymen was one of them. I thought it was just as stupid as the rest"

All My Life Lyrics

Echo & The Bunnymen

Oh how the times have changes us
Sure and now uncertain
Men not devils have claimed us
Purity deserting
Gods one miracle
Lost in circles
Chorus:
All my all my life
Revolves around
Laughter and crying
As my life turns
Round and round
Cannon fire burning
On the hillside
You and I are side by side
Listen
Tin soldiers playing our tune
(chorus)
And round
Songs for lifes lost lovers
Bitter sweet their healing
Their prayers prayed under covers
Need not kneeling
Gods one miracle
Moves in circles
(chorus x2)
And round
And round
Hearts of fire
Hearts of bone
Beating stronger
Beating home
Where theres wanting
There is need
Where theres having
There is greed
Im swimming out on a blue blue ocean
Youre sailing out on a blue blue sea
Silhouettes and a vulture hoping
Hes gonna pick the bones of you and me
You and me
Girl
I want the gold dust
In your fingers
And your klondike touch
Girl
I want your goldmine
As it shimmers
In your solemn eyes
Im swimming out on a blue blue ocean
Youre sailing out on a blue blue sea
Silhouettes and a vulture hoping
Licking the bones of you and me
Im swimming out on a blue blue ocean
Youre sailing out on a blue blue sea
Blue blue sea
Im swimming out on the ocean
(blue blue ocean)
Youre sailing out on the sea
(blue blue sea)
(x 4)
(repeat about 14 times) blue blue ocean
Blue blue sea
