Life is bigger
It’s bigger than you
And you are not me
The lengths that I will go to
The distance in your eyes
Oh no I’ve said too much
I set it up
That’s me in the corner
That’s me in the spotlight
Losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you
And I don’t know if I can do it
Oh no I’ve said too much
I haven’t said enough
I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try
Every whisper
Of every waking hour I’m
Choosing my confessions
Trying to keep an eye on you
Like a hurt lost and blinded fool
Oh no I’ve said too much
I set it up
Consider this
The hint of the century
Consider this
The slip that brought me
To my knees failed
What if all these fantasies
Come flailing around
Now I’ve said too much
I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try
But that was just a dream
That was just a dream

1991年のグラミーで最優秀ポップグループ、ショートフォームヴィデオ,オルタナティブアルバムを獲得。でもこの年は”Unforgettable”一色でしたね…グラミーだから…。
"Losing My Religion"で「途方に暮れる」という意味に相当するので、宗教を失うことでそういう意味を持たせること自体、英語圏のキリスト教とのつながりの強さを感じさせてくれるという意味でも記憶に残っています。
まあ、ちょうど小生も”Losing My Religion”だった頃ですしね（＾＾；
あれからもう14年…。
