Lyrics to Mamouna
Lyrics to the song Mamouna as recorded by Bryan Ferry.
(Ferry)
So you say
You're living just for fun
Isn't it enough?
So you say
You wait oh will it come?
Isn't it enough
You're a prisoner of loving
You're chained and bound
I could never be the one
In moonlight and the sun
Oh Mamouna Mamouna run
Oh Mamouna Mamouna run
Oh Mamouna Mamouna run
Oh Mamouna Mamouna run
You and me
We're just like night and day
The here and now
The ghost of yesterday
Hack and tear
We're prisoners of loving
We're chained and bound
There's a road I've got to take
A thread you got, a thread you got to break
Oh Mamouna Mamouna run
Oh Mamouna Mamouna run
Oh Mamouna Mamouna run
Oh Mamouna
Oh Mamouna Mamouna run
Oh Mamouna Mamouna run
Oh Mamouna Mamouna run
Oh Mamouna
Mamouna
Album Track
This was the 2nd single release from Mamouna in February 1995. The single version was an edit and there is a radio edit on a USA promo.
A re-mix of The 39 Steps by Brian Eno was the b-side to the UK 7" single and the CD single also included live versions of Jealous Guy & Slave To Love form Bryan Ferry's Glasgow show 10th December 1988.
This single was released in Japan as "Mamouna E.P." (not to be confused with the Japanese pressing of the Mamouna album that also had 2 bonus live tracks.) This CD gathered together some archive b-sides that had never been released on CD before.
