Jones, Howard - Hide And Seek Lyrics
There was a time when there was nothing at all
Nothing at all, just a distant hum
There was a being and he lived on his own
He had no one to talk to, and nothing to do
He drew up the plans, learnt to work with his hands
And his words were these...
Hope you find it in everything, everything that you see
Hope you find it in everything, everything that you see
Hope you find it, hope you find it
Hope you find me in you
So she had built her elaborate home
With it's ups and it's downs, its rains and its sun
She decided that her work was done, time to have fun
Then as part of the game
She completely forgot where she'd hidden herself
And she spent the rest of her time
Trying to find the parts
Hope you find it in everything, everything that you see
Hope you find it in everything, everything that you see
Hope you find it, hope you find it
Hope you find me in you
There was a time when there was nothing at all, nothing at all
Just a distant hum

Jones, Howard Hide And Seek Comments
Gives me goosebumps just beautiful
there was never nothng
❤️❤️❤️ Love this song xx
Thought provoking song - what a throwback
With songs like this Howard & co were trying to save the planet all those years ago!
What a beautiful song, absolutely stunning music and lyrics. Who’s here in 2020?
Oh goodness, I forgot about this incredible song. So glad I found it again, 80's all the way, great memories, simple times for me as a child, then we grew up, so glad I can re- live through YT! Thanks for sharing.
Just can't find the words!
Wish he would come back to Ireland 😢 seen Howard in the 90s would love to see him again❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Didn't like all that synthesizer music in the 80, but this one, men what a song
Damn...i miss the 80ths .
Best song ever. Full stop ❤️
Beautiful!!!...
Melodie pentru suflet...
Always loved this song.
THE SONG BECOMES SEXIER WHEN IT'S SUNG IN THE LANGUAGE OF LOVE, FRENCH, OH OUI §§§§
Makes me cry 😢 need to be back in the 80’s, my decade, my home
Love this tune 🎶
Loved this song ever since it first came out, even though I didn't really fully understand the lyrics as I was a teenager.
Many years later in an Ayahuasca ceremony God told me his plan for creating and said this song sums it up perfectly.
It totally blew me away!!! 😊🙏
swietny videoclip oraz super piosenka oraz wspanialy howard jones
You Howard started my love of music. You are my mentor.
To Ty zapoczątkowałeś Howard moją miłość do muzyki.
This is an awesome song., and a dramatic video.
Finally found you back...you eighties feeling
Great track from great times in my life. Glad I was part of it. A real keyboard player. Good synths back then using the famous DX7 and Roland Jupiter 8 on this track.
He should be more famous like Rick Astley and Tears for Fears. Why wasn´t this a bigger hit? Why isn´t this played on the radio?! A mystery. Under rated artist??
Classic days
One of my all time favourites. I was 13 years old when this was released and reading "The Lord of the Rings" for the first time. Thi IS Tom Bombadill...
This is typical awesome 80's music.
super song
a very nice intro.....like a mysterious place....if you were a teenager then, like me, that was a song for dreamers...
This video works beautifully with the song - it's just such a shame to watch it at 240p. Seriously, there needs to be a high quality version of this video somewhere! Maybe not 4k but still better than this!
This song gives me goosebumps!
I loved this at the time and had almost forgotten about it until I wondered why I always hear his other songs and not this. It's brilliant and his best in my humble opinion!!
The quintessence of 80's melancholy and 80's sadness. When I close my eyes and listen to this song I see it all again. Melancholy and beauty at the same time.
A master piece Howard, you had such an influence as a youngster on my life through a really dark time, i m sure you do on many others too, this was one of my favs too. Thanks again sends chills even after this time.
This song had grown on me so much.....in and of its self it's great.
Only think that the vocals could have done with some layering as I don't think he has the voice for this particular song. It's so deep and moody, the vocals seem too thin.
This is my humble opinion- with me being an expert in such. Lol
I enjoyed it then and just as much now , Thanks Howard
34 years later - I'd forgotten how good song this is (and how much I loved it). Phenomenal music - goosebumps
Can anyone give me a lift back to the 80’s please? Anyone?
incredible how such deep lyrics, too deep for the superficial and poor '80s. thanks to Dune i would have never known about this song
There was a time...
Stop trying to impress people that you don't even care about
His vocals are amazing ! 💙🎶
Howard Jones was 80s genius
This wonderful song remind me the day my grandmother died, and that song was stuck in my head for days.. love it
counting down to see you here in Houston !!!!! had been dreaming all my life to see you since the 80's back in my beautiful Guatemala, now I get to see you with my soulmate who also is your greatest admirer
Beautiful song
Vastly underrated song from a man who shares his birthday with Yours Truly.
Swear this man does not make a bad song 😍😍🤩
Absolutely brilliant tune
Way way ahead of its time,
80s rock,!!!!!!!!
Found it Howard. The problem is just how do you get it?
I can’t thank Howard Jones enough for the memories he has created , he probably won’t ever realise what his vocals , synth and songwriting has done for so many people and the impact it had on their lives , certainly as a child of the 80’s ...
Howard is still making absolutely top class material, read a little about Howard and he seems like a cracking , down to earth fella who remembers his roots ...that’s certainly what I took from it .
This is a haunting masterpiece and personally for me is all about childhood innocence and fun and also what could have been , wish I never tried to grow up too quickly.
I hope you don’t get embarrassed if you do read this Howard as o know it’s your channel, but you don’t ever toot your own horn so I think you deserve it tooted for you just even a wee bit , so appreciate of your music , a throughly talented guy...thanks so much.
1980’s Guy well said
Magnificent Song love everything about it. I'm 19 years of age this song is truly amazing.
If people around the world have the consciousness expressed in this song, the war will disappear.
I love this! 2019
This guy is the one because I love music
these kinds of melodies really inspire me
Thank you Howard, a truly underrated classic ❤
I love this song by Howard Jones 👍👍👍👍👍👍😎😎😎😎😎
OMG! I have the 12inch of this in the loft somewhere! I've typed Howard Jones in you tube after a few glasses of wine! This is great after 30 odd years! One of his better songs, check out speciality, a track that never got the recognition it deserves and will give you more goosebumps than this!
Simply wonderful! Back in time
Haunting.....................
Seen Howard Jones in concert 1984 and going to see him may 2019.
Great song. Period.
God and creation of Earth. Mankind ....Sands of Time......
👌 🔝
Beautiful song, Beautiful lyrics and great video to complement the song!
they dont make Music like this now more what a masterpice
Live Aid?
Any one else here who just wanted to slip back to the eightes for 5 blissful minutes?
2019 anybody out there!!!!
Timeless masterpiece.
😀😀😀😀
It was a big hit in my childhood a timeless synth pop classic with a certain attitude.
AMAZING still 😍
One of the best songs I have ever heard.
Stays on my playlist. Absolute masterpiece
WIsh he still made music/lyrics like this... Society needs it... No one is doing stuff like this...
That solo has always touched me deeply, it brings me to tears. Is anyone else as deeply moved by it as I am? I find it profoundly sad.
Why isn't music like this anymore it's such a shame the world would be such a different place if it was as music is and always been important to the soul
This is one of the greatest songs of the 80s. What a fantastic tune and lyrics.
GREAT SONG EVER
TATTOO - 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
The rule of YouTube: the fewer vews a song will have, the better the song will be.
TOP Song der 80er
This song dosen't age ...sounds great in 2018 has it did back in the 80's
what a song xxxx
Aww loved this song so much... Haunting
i was 19 back in that wonderfull time....... i was in love with Polysix and jupiter 8 sounds, there was so much great new wave, oh my god, i am on my DX7 again, that change was magic to me
I was always greatly moved this, but the full tragedy of the "she" verses only recently hit home with me. Universal consciousness was utterly stuffed the moment it thought up yin and yang with its ups and its downs. From then on omniscience couldn't help but shatter continuously into endless tiny shards of awareness. We are those shards - He/She was lost and became we, forever doomed to rebuild the immense jigsaw without the picture on the box. Hope you find It...hope you find It...
1984 best Music Year ever
GREAT UK 🇬🇧 BEST SINGER EVER , BEST SONG EVER
HOWARD JONES
This is an amazing beautiful song!
Still listening..2018..Love all Howard's music but "Hide & Seek" still holds the #1 slot for me followed by "Soon you"ll Go" that he wrote for his daughter Mica. Not only is he uber talented (that's an understatement) but also a gem of a human being. We all were blessed the day Howard was born!!
I bought Humans Lib when it came out in 1984. It's only now, 34 years later that I got it- Humans Liberation, the lyrics throughout his work are truly inspirational. A great musician, song-writer and human being!
Remember it still. Back in 1984, dancing with that sweet girl. We were boath 15 years old, she smelled so good and her boobs felt fantastic to my chest when we danced to Hide and Seek and right after this song to Careless Whisper. This memory came up somehow today 34 years later so thats why I looked up this song :)
We saw Howard in concert in the late 80's at Birmingham's NEC. He was on stage for 2hrs 15mins straight. Absolutely out of this world. EVERYONE danced in the aisles from start to finish. PURE BRILLIANCE !!!!!!!!!
There was a time when there was nothing at all
Nothing at all, just a distant hum
There was a being and he lived on his own
He had no one to talk to, and nothing to do
He drew up the plans, learnt to work with his hands
A million years passed by and his work was done
And his words were these...
Hope you find it in everything, everything that you see
Hope you find it in everything, everything that you see
Hope you find it, hope you find it
Hope you find me in you
So she had built her elaborate home
With it's ups and it's downs, its rains and its sun
She decided that her work was done, time to have fun
and she found a game to play
Then as part of the game
She completely forgot where she'd hidden herself
And she spent the rest of her time
Trying to find the parts
Hope you find it in everything, everything that you see
Hope you find it in everything, everything that you see
Hope you find it, hope you find it
Hope you find me in you
There was a time when there was nothing at all, nothing at all
Just a distant hum
Great song listened to it all the time back then, sadly brings back bad memories.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR SHARING, GREAT VIBES SONGS!! , AND ALBUMS VERY GOOD MUSIC WITH GREAT EMOTIONS!!
