Lyrics to Mamouna (Radio Edit)
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
