Lyrics
The higher the mountain the harder the fall
Looking for blood at the scene of the crime
It’s been running in circles or nothing at all
For a long, long, long time
Boxing at shadows and listening at doors
Pushing the buttons and pulling the blinds
We haven’t been honest or clever or sure
In a long, long, long time
It’s been a long, long, long time
Funny how the heart of everyone
Is the part you’ll never know
Funny how the heart of holding on
Is letting go
The higher the mountain the harder the fall
Turning the corner and looking for signs
You leap in the dark while I wait for the call
It’s been a long, long, long time
Out of the furnace and into the flames
Holding a candle and crossing the line
We haven’t been playing with fire or rain
In a long, long, long time
For a long, long, long time
It’s been a long, long, long time
Funny how the heart of everyone
Is the part you’ll never know
Funny how the heart of holding on
Is letting go
Save me the last word

This is one of my favourite tracks, but the whole album is a masterpiece. This is the kind of music you don't really find anymore nowadays. They are legends!!! ❤️

[@Gerardjhughes]

Marillion s new one on the way next week , will be just as epic as this album

[@anthonypagliuso8429]

Indeed legends. They need to be inducted this year

[@sumantmurugesh1669]

Love this track too!

[@bobbyshafto3259]

@@Gerardjhughes I agree,new Marillion album is "epic".

[@geraldmatus9247]

I'm right there with you. Great record. Going to see them next Sunday in chula vista.

[@phylliskumi4355]

Such a good song. I will get the record. Thank you Curt and Roland.

[@grantshadowman1641]

Carina Round’s vocals and harmonies in the chorus are just majestic. Elevates the song 🎶 beautifully.

[@bobbyshafto3259]

I could not agree more,this is the best track on a CLASSIC album !!

[@XoXo475]

@Lee Schedler she’s been their backing singer for years now and an artist in her own right. Stunning voice!

[@surfsup0862]

When I heard the backing vocal I had to go searching for who sang. She does a stunning performance.

[@Hwarming]

She's amazing live too, I saw TFF back in June when she was still part of the tour, absolutely beautiful singer. Her solo stuff is definitely worth listening to as well

[@dodongkatabang5725]

curts smiths voice soo cool.

[@xtstevie]

Welcome back to one of the best UK bands ever..... Stunning song.

[@plasmichoneytrip]

There is something really magical about this song. Truly, LONG LONG LONG LIVE TEARS FOR FEARS…

[@EnTierraDeNadie]

The voice of Curt Smith singing "Save me the last word" is incredible

[@Gloria.m.c.]

I think it's incredible all through it. Amazing how they sound the same than a lifetime ago. Curt still sounds legit like an angel.

[@psychokittie]

That's the bit that makes me really like this song.

My mind is blown. This world needs good music like this so very badly.

[@havefunbesafe]

god damn this is good.

[@gr637]

What a great album. Tears for Fears still fresh and relevant. Old, not obsolete. And super good.

[@XoXo475]

2:30 it just soars…. Mega chills . Such a gorgeous song. Carina Round has been such a force in this band. Stunning voice. I absolutely love her .

[@theelectriccircuswithrichh6389]

OMG what a Heavenly chorus !!!!!!!! This is an instant Classic along with "Break The Man"

[@andrewhulson4000]

Totally agree. A classic !!!

[@garypritchett8136]

Yeah, that chorus!!

[@AlexW14]

That guitar riff is something else...honestly just listening through the whole album now, TFF are back with a bang!

[@hedkandi360]

And if you were pleased with the first chorus, the end of the chorus with the higher note, that kills you.

[@adamcollins7261]

What an album. Absolute masterpiece.. I'm shocked to be hearing something this good in 2022.

[@TheGreatConstantini]

It’s refreshing to hear music recorded well. This album sonically defies the current trends.

[@neillchristinew3728]

Beautiful, sublime chorus, just sheer perfection as always from Tears for Fears.

[@johnflavin1602]

What superb backing vocals, take a bow Carina Round!

[@stopbunsen]

She's amazing right? I love her with Puscifer as well

[@TheMarcelloFabrizi]

For the last 17 years something was missing. Didn’t know what it was until this album release. With all that’s going on in the world we all get to experience a new TFF album together. We are blessed.

[@carybarnes1861]

have they released another Album ? what recently ? poorly advertised sadly, let me know and I will tell them their publicity company are asleep and need a rocket up their arse or firing ! I am in the music business, they were brilliant and vocals amazing, superb band they were, part of my music tapestry loved them, I am now 58 ! sadly missed as a quality band.

[@jayallen2481]

I know saying something that ages like fine wine is cliche but man, Tears for Fears are still amazing and phenomenal, fantastic music gentleman, glad your back stronger than ever!!!!

[@glenshea1967]

Same here. I was about 15 when they brought their first song/album out.

[@erichloehr5992]

Yep it’s official … you have to listen to this album 3 or 4 times in a row in order for it to fully digest. Then every song becomes your favorite like this one!

[@toddsyoutube2679]

This was the same way with Seeds Of Love album too.

[@richardwcleveland363]

Yes, these men have talent that just gets more refined over the years!

[@stevekaspar1396]

Exactly.. just like any other album

[@Sphat90]

I liked it all the first time I heard it.

[@Eastpointe]

As a GenX, grew up listening to TFF. One of my all time favorites. This track is so BEAUTIFUL!❤

[@urbanlegendsandtrivia2023]

They were 40 years ahead of their time in the 1980s, and in 2022 they are 40 years ahead of their time again.

[@stopbunsen]

I feel emotionally validated by this song

[@kamuusbarendrecht4863]

despite the world changing and unfortunately we are moving from one drama to another. there are also beautiful things in life, and the music of Tears for Fears is part of that. I am once again moved / delighted by your new CD. congratulations and greetings from the sunny Netherlands ❣️🌍🌎🌏

[@grande-bretagnenilpoints8912]

this band is playing in my city in July (Exeter). £110 a ticket. But I cannot resist introducing my kids to this amazing, wonderful music. Tickets bought

[@Slightly_Bedraggled]

Did you get to go? Did they enjoy it?

[@Green-eyedGirl19]

Saw them in Atlanta, GA in 2022. Gladly paid $200 per ticket! What a wonderful concert.

I'm from Honduras, I love you guys. Your music make me feel very happy and strong.

[@cintiacherubinocherubino659]

Oh my God! Curt’s voice is marvellous! This song is awesome!

[@magusmaximmus2172]

When I first heard this track I must admit, the beginning of the song didn’t pull me in. Then the chorus kicks in. Wow. Just wow. Then, I read the lyrics and mind is blown again. Now, not only do I find myself addicted to this track but I get the song as a whole. And, this entire album is outstanding.

[@garypritchett8136]

My favourite on the album but tbh I think all the tracks are brilliant. Liked it all on first listen and that don’t happen with me much. Brilliant album, sounds as fresh as anything they did in the 80’s!

[@yrmthr]

I'm so thankful Curt & Roland mustered up the energy to record another album. I feel I'm not worthy of it. Nobody's entitled to this. Thank you.

[@shaunac.1949]

I feel like that too!

[@gamachan73]

It's a really gentle and comfortable sound. I can rest assured😊

[@seanfizzwebdesign]

If the charts still mattered, and Thursday night at 7 was still all about TOTP, then this would surely be a number 1.

[@michaelwaterman8487]

Clearly one of the best albums of 2022. Cover to cover the best album ever heard from any 80s artists.

[@photo80sjeff84]

TFF, you had me at "Pale Shelter"in 1983 when I was 16 years old, loved you guys since and always.❤

Ahhhh.... This feels soooo good! So Grateful!

[@TheCollectorCave]

I can't explain it, but the sound(s) in this album (the instruments and the way it was recorded) is so rich. Feels like such a premium experience to my ears. Head Over Heels had been my favorite New Wave song since I was a 9 year old when it was released. But hearing this album....man, it's literally music to my ears. Thank you guys, it's been a long time coming!

[@valeriaalves828]

I feel the same. There are no words to express the feelings evoked by this song. It's incredibly pure. I've loved Tears for Fears for over 30 years. Me here from Brazil ❤️🇧🇷🥰

[@nickozanich101]

It's a fantastic recording. I have been building stereos n home theaters and have thousands of vinyl. These new records are fire. Recording at 192/24 digital or more then pressed to vinyl is fantastic.so great live too. :)
