The Jesus and Mary Chain "The Hardest Walk" Listen | Buy

NOTES: This song is probably best known by a wide audience for its inclusion on the soundtrack to the movie Some Kind of Wonderful, but it was first featured on the Jesus and Mary Chain's debut. This song needs to be played LOUDLY for maximum enjoyment.

I never thought that this day would ever come
When your words and your touch just struck me numb
Oh and it’s plain to see that it’s dead
The thing swims in blood and it’s cold stoney dead
It’s so hard not to feel ashamed
Of the loving living games we play
Each day

And I’m stuck in a shack
Down the back of the sea
Oh and I’m alive and I’m alone
Inside a sick sick dream
Oh is it me
Is it me that feels so weak?
How can I deceive if I find it hard to speak?

The hardest walk you could ever take
Is the walk you take from A to B
To C

I walk
Oh honey I talk
Don’t want you to need me
Don’t need you to want me

And I walk
