Erasure - Am I Right? Lyrics






Wandering through the back roads
And the rain comes rushing down
To resolve your love
For this man in his twenties

Am I right?
Am I wrong?
Or am I just dreaming?

Climbing up the backstairs
There's a chill wind in the air
I wrap up from the cold
Pull the blind in the window

Who was here?
Was it you?
Or am I just dreaming?

Look at all the lonely people
Walking miles around the town
I can see the old cathedral
But I have to play it down

Boats are on the river
Setting up their sails
And life carries on as normal
Although you're not around

Waiting at the bus stop
Laughing off the rain
Shaking their umbrellas
'Till it starts again

Flowers in the water
Floating off downstream
Paper in the gutter
Blowing in the breeze

Am I right?
Am I wrong?
Or am I just dreaming?

Look at all the lonely people
Walking miles around the town
I can see the old cathedral
But I have to play it down

Boats are on the river
Setting up their sails
And life carries on as normal
Although you're not around

Waiting at the bus stop
Laughing off the rain
Shaking their umbrellas
'Till it starts again

Flowers in the water
Floating off downstream
Paper in the gutter
Blowing in the breeze

Wandering through the back roads
And the rain comes rushing down
To resolve your love
For this man in his twenties

Am I right?
Am I wrong?
Or am I just dreaming?

    My absolute favorite Erasure song! 💓💓💓

  5. O.... S....

    So underrated album erasure best , Madonna once once quoted as saying dance synth. Music had no heart she was obviously stupid or blind, and this was back in 1996 or so for her overrated Ray of Light release.

  6. M.... V....

    I was obsessed with this song as a teenager. Such beautiful lyrics.

  7. m.... ....

    "....to resolve your love for this man....in his twenties...". They don't make songs like these anymore, thank God I was there when they made this beautiful song. One of Erasure's best songs and certainly the most underrated, Love, ASH

  8. 3.... ....

    One of the Best erasure Song...Love this amazing Song

  9. a.... ....

    "Chorus" is to Erasure what "Red Mecca" is to Cabaret Voltaire. That ultimate masterpiece of an album.

  10. D.... ....

    Sorry, but 02:35 - it's Vince Clarke in wig, riding the bicycle, with Andy Bell running behind?
    What city is it in clip? Paris, Sena?

    Wanderin' through the back roads
    And the rain comes rushin' down

    Look at all the lonely people
    Walking miles around the town
    I can see the old cathedral
    But I have to play it down
    Boats along the river
    Setting up their sails
    And life carries on as normal
    Although you're not around
    Waiting as the bus stop
    Laughing off the rain
    Shaking their umbrellas
    'Till it starts again
    Flowers in the water
    Floating off downstream
    Paper in the gutter
    Blowing in the breeze

    Maybe their deepest song ever. The mixed emotions. The changes from minor to major. Not easy to capture such complex emotions. B-minor: magenta; transition from the earthly realm. D-major: Orange, re-generation.

  24. L.... G....

    If you don’t speak Spanish, translate!!
    Cuando salió este disco Chorus, lo compré y fue mi primer álbum en formato CD que tuve, lo escuché y no podía creer la cantidad de sonidos, detalles, bajos, agudos,la ecualización, todo. Creo que es uno de los discos con más alta calidad que escuché en mi vida.
    Soy de escuchar más música con guitarras pero Erasure, en lo que hacen, son palabras mayores.
    Escuchen este álbum con audífonos de calidad con La Luz apagada y se sorprenderán.

  52. M.... G....

    Such a nostalgic and beautiful song!!!!

  53. B.... �....

    👏👏👏

  54. M.... H....

    Very nostalgic. Music from my youth, highschool and friends. 20 hits Pop album was amazing. Some told me this is gay music. I dont agree with that, music has no gender even if it has an ideology. I love Erasure, so good music.

    M.... H....

    sadly, gay people are obsessed with calling music "gay". I've loved Erasure all of my life and gets very angry when stupid gay people not even mention the music in their embarrassing comments. the worst example is La Roux. I love Elly Jackson and her music but the comments are on pornhub level. shallow lesbians only interested in her face, sexuality and haircut. if that's the price you have to pay to be different, I understand why most of us are exactly the same.

    M.... H....

    Max Hernandez I love Erasure! Great music, not “gay” per de. Andy Bell has a distinctive voice that no straight male has. Melodic and slightly effeminate. Talented

    M.... H....

    Here here i say, but I've absolutely no time for queers, i cannot but listen to this band in their prime in the late 80's they where fantastic.

    M.... H....

    @1002anna Very good comment, i totally agree

    M.... H....

    Все верно! Если Кларк гей,то это не значит что их песни для геев..Они пишут и исполняют музыку для всех..И как показало время, очень очень неплохую..

  55. F.... B....

    Los adoro!! ;)

    F.... B....

    Franco Baggage ya somos 2

  56. s.... A....

    Nos encanta esta canción que vivan por siempre erasure

  57. l.... ....

    Love so much this song, it remembers me when I felt in love with Nancy, my wife 1995...after 20 years we both listened hundred of times until she passed away because her breast cancer and some bad adventists who convinced her to recover health by means od plants and biblical food diet...she died without morphine, so wanted these insane adventist guys...two years gone and cry as the same as 1995, my first kiss with her...thanks Erasure

    l.... ....

    litico1 sending you love... xoxo

    l.... ....

    so sorry litco1. be strong now. thats what she wants you to do. and don't close the door on love. she wouldn't want you to do that. keep your heart open. love found you once through her, it will find you again.

  58. C.... D....

    One more beautiful song, Andy thank you for so much beauty, your lovely voice draw a smile in my face one more time but at the same time, put me sad because is so deep and melancholic the lyric

    M.... S....

    ME TOO! I HAD JUST HAD SPINAL SURGERY! THIS CD; GEORGE MICHAEL'S LISTEN WITHOUT PREJUDICE (1990) AND JANE'S ADDICTION (1990) KEPT ME GOING!

  93. c.... g....

    Love this song. Full of hidden meanings and a very personal song to me

    c.... g....

    chris garvey I do agree. Like this one has meaning for you, Mad World by Tears for Fears does for me in my youth

    c.... g....

    Been an "E" fan since the 80's, and what I liked about their songs is that everyone can find their own personal message in them, regardless of orientation. :)

    c.... g....

    it's a masterpiece. Chorus was one my favourite albums as a child and I still rank it top 40 best albums ever made. played the cassette over and over again in my room while playing.

    c.... g....

    homomonument amsterdam is where andy bell is sat in the video there are 3 pink triangles in different places which all join up to make 1 giant pink triangle..it is for all the gay men and women who have died over the years from aids or persecution from the nazis for being gay from what i can remember. i think this beautiful song is about a lover or close friend of andy bells who he lost to aids in the 80s i remember him talking about it in an interview i saw a while ago x i hope this finds you well chris and you are happy my friend xxxx blessings from the uk xxxx danny

  94. M.... ....

    Beautiful.

  95. p.... c....
