R.E.M. — Losing My Religion - Live in Chicago / 1995

[Spoken Intro] This song was made popular in 1973 when I was 13 years old by B.J. Thomas. We've only covered it one time before, so please bear with us. But I think you'll enjoy it, it's a great song, here we go [Verse 1] Oh, 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 [Pre-Chorus] 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 [Chorus] I thought that I heard you laughing I thought that I heard you sing I think I thought I saw you try [Verse 2] 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 [Pre-Chorus] Consider this, 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 [Chorus] I thought that I heard you laughing I thought that I heard you sing I think I thought I saw you try [Interlude] But that was just a dream That was just a dream [Pre-Chorus] 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 [Chorus] I thought that I heard you laughing I thought that I heard you sing I think I thought I saw you try [Outro] But that was just a dream Try, try, cry, lie That was just a dream, just a dream Just a dream
