What's the Good of a Man ? v2

(remix)

yesterday you thought you had a dream and heaven was waiting
now today you think something is starting to fall
yesterday you thought you had a dream and heaven was waiting
now today you think you might have nothing at all

what's the good of a man if he doesn't make your heart desire ?
what's the good of a man if he doesn't keep your senses burning ?
what's the good of a man if he doesn't keep your body yearning ?
what's the good of a man if he doesn't set your soul alight
and every single fibre of your body on fire ?

there and then you thought you had a perfect dream with no ending
here and now you think something is starting to wake
there and then you thought you had a perfect dream with no ending
here and now you think something is starting to break

what's the good of a man if he doesn't make your heart desire ?
what's the good of a man if he doesn't keep your senses burning ?
what's the good of a man if he doesn't keep your body yearning ?
what's the good of a man if he doesn't set your soul alight
and every single fibre of your body on fire ?

yesterday you thought you had the world and nothing was wanting
now today you see something you didn't before
yesterday you thought you had the world and nothing was wanting
now today you need something a little bit more

what's the good of a man if he doesn't make your heart desire ?
what's the good of a man if he doesn't keep your senses burning ?
what's the good of a man if he doesn't keep your body yearning ?
now I ask rhetorically
what's the good of a man if he doesn't make your heart desire ?
what's the good of a man if he doesn't keep your senses burning ?
what's the good of a man if he doesn't keep your body yearning ?
what's the good of a man if he doesn't set your soul alight
and every single fibre of your body on fire ?
