Wor(l)d of Morrissey
  We're back! Welcome to the world of Morrissey's lyrics.

This site and all of the work made to keep it updated during the last 26 years are dedicated to my beloved friend MaCa65 who suddenly left this lonely planet
and me without words. Throughout the short stretch of time that we have been given to spend together as close friends, we shared many things,
thoughts, afternoons, views, passions and some bits of Life. Back in 1983, together we discovered a band called The Smiths and together since then, we followed Morrissey's career
as one of the most influential and inspiring singer/artist/poet of our age. Maca65 has always been a strong supporter since when I first launched WoM,
so this is and will always be entirely for you, my friend. -- David

Drag The River

Drag the river and within her you may find a sliver
Of the one of whom you speak and whom they seek
She would gaze into the river as we’d look into a mirror

And her reflection would beckon her to
Join me join me join me join me
Happy we will be

On the coastal shore I’m sure you’d break down if you saw
An abhorrent torrent crashing as it pours
The counter current holds a secret at the rise of tides

And it swells all alone for this heart born too high
So join me join me join me join me
I’m certain I heard her cry

By the river with the soul of submersible stone
Every second of my life prepares to go
She would call into the river as she’d cry out for her mother

So stark, so haunt, deep enough for all I was
Oh join us join us join us join us
And happy we will be

Bonus track in the Deluxe Edition.

Draga il fiume

Dragate il fiume e in esso potreste trovare un frammento
di colui il quale state parlando e che stanno cercando
Lei guarderebbe nel fiume come noi gurderemmo in uno specchio

Ed il suo riflesso la invitava ad
unirsi a me, unirsi a me, unirsi a me
E saremo felici

Sulla riva, sulla costa sono certo che crolleresti se vedessi
Un orribile torrente che s'infrange mentre scorre
La controcorrente mantiene un segreto all'alzarsi delle maree

E si gonfia tutto solo per questo cuore nato troppo in alto
Quindi unisciti a me, unisciti a me, unisciti a me
Sono certo di averla sentita gridare

In riva al fiume con l'anima di pietra capace di andare a fondo
Ogni secondo della mia vita si prepara ad andare
Lei chiamava nel fiume mentre gridava per sua madre

Così spoglio, così infestato, abbastanza profondo per tutto ciò che ero
Oh unisciti a noi unisciti a noi unisciti a noi
E saremo felici

Bonus track nell'edizione Deluxe.
