Lyrics: [F.RIEBL]
First I saw you standing there
Eyes so wild beneath your hair
Coat worn blacker than the sun
Shook your head like Strummer strummed
We stood like soldiers in a line
Heard the bells of midnight chime
We turned grey walls to fields of green
The only fate that we could scream was

While you’re still young
Find your heart and find your song
Now where have you gone?

No matter where you’re going
And no matter where you’ve been
You never needed anybody else’s call now
I never met a one like you, never met a one like you
Never met a one like you, don’t bring me down

There’s a dream that haunts my nights
Of wild black horses out in flight
The kind of free I’d never been
A kind of beast I’d never seen
Why do all things end in pain?
I call the ghosts and ask their names
Is that love you’re running from?
If you lead then I will come

And while you’re still young
Find your heart and find your song
Now where have you gone?

No matter where you’re going
And no matter where you’ve been
You never needed anybody else’s call now
I never met a one like you, never met a one like you
Never met a one like you, don’t bring me down

Basta de cuentos (enough fables/lies) Basta de cuentos
Es tiempo de lo nuestro (It’s time of what is ours) Es-Tiempo de lo nuestro
Tengo tu alma (I’ve got your soul) Tengo tu alma
Bien metida adentro (embedded in me) Bien metitha-adentro

While you’re still young
Find your heart and find your song
While you’re still young
Find your heart and find your song
While you’re still young
Find your heart and find your song
Now where have you gone?
Oh oh oh . . .

No matter where you’re going
And no matter where you’ve been
You never needed anybody else’s call now
I never met a one like you, never met a one like you
Never met a one like you, don’t bring me down

About:
Formed in Melbourne, Australia and adored the world over, The Cat Empire is a musical success story that continues to be written. The trajectory the six-piece have sustained for their 20-year career has been lead by a shared passion for bringing joy through their infectious, genre-embracing anthems and making global audiences dance.

The band started from humble beginnings, making music and playing sweaty clubs around Melbourne. Their fans would introduce friends to what they were dancing to, and the ground-swell began. The Cat Empire have gone on to release seven studio albums with global chart success.

The Cat Empire's hard work and connection to their worldwide audience have made them a significant Australian global music export for two decades. They are in high demand from Promoters the world over for headline festival slots year on year from Glastonbury and WOMAD to Bonnaroo and Bluesfest due to the unique brand of feel-good Australian music and their enduring ability to consistently deliver a world-class live show.

July 2021 sees the band return with new music recorded earlier this year at the studio of long time friend and Producer Jan Skubiszewski's Red Moon studio in regional Victoria and recordings by Diego Guerrero at Estudio La Burilla Madrid. The recordings feature the Empire Horns, Yuri Pavlinov on bass and writers, singers and Palmas from Barcelona and Madrid.

The Cat Empire:
Vocals: Felix Riebl
Vocals & Trumpet: Harry James Angus

Great bass line. My bass teacher showed this song to me, and I just loved it. Now I'm discovering this band.

Good job!!! Keep in the low-end, Monro!

Used to work at an MTB shop in southern Chile. This song was part of the playlist I had while on duty. Thanks, Cat empire🐈

[Jon-ftmv]

Dedicate this song to my partner of 13 years who I love dearly and I know in her own way loves me and will never leave, but needs to find herself. She is a amazing woman and I want nothing but her happiness in this life. I hope she finds what she's looking for out there and one day maybe she will just call and we can find ourselves together.

[DaveDrumsOK]

My daughter's favourite song by you guys.... 💜

When they played this song at Rocking the Daisies 2015 I lost my shit. It was so fucking good.

Ho smesso di ascoltare questa canzone perché mi ricordava una persona a me cara che purtroppo è finita male, oggi mi è venuta voglia di riascoltarla è penso a lei con un grande sorriso
