How I Became The Bomb - Ulay, Oh Lyrics

There she was like a picture.
There she was, she was just the same.
There she was, he just had to know that she had forgot his name.
Ulay, Ulay, Oh.

Thinking back to the last time.
On the wall as they turned away.
Walking back, was it just a dream or did he hear her say?
Ulay, Ulay, Oh.

Trying his best to forget her.
Trying his best to just keep his stride.
Kept his word, but he knows he heard
Ulay, Ulay, Oh.
Ulay, Ulay, Oh.

There she was like a picture.
There she was, she was just the same.
There she was, he just had to know she had not forgot his name.
Ulay, Ulay, Oh.
Ulay, Ulay, Oh.
Ulay, Ulay, Oh.
Ulay, Ulay, Oh.
Ulay, Ulay, Oh.
Ulay, Ulay, Oh.
Ulay, Ulay, Oh.

There he was like his picture.
There he was, he was just the same.
There he was. He could never know she could never give his name.
Ulay, Ulay, Oh.

Thinking back to the last time.
On the wall as he turned away.
Turning back, did he even know?
Did he ever hear her say
Ulay, Ulay, Oh?

Trying her best to foget him.
Trying her best just to keep her stride.
Ulay, Ulay, Oh.
Ulay, Ulay, Oh.

There they were like the picture.
There they were, they were just the same.
There they were, but he walked away and her eyes could only say
Ulay, Ulay, Oh.
[*from the intro to the video:]
(Artists Marina Abramovic and Ulay
started an intense love affair in the 1970's,
performing out of a van they called home

When they ended their relationship,
they decided to walk the Great Wall of China,
each from one end, meeting for one
last embrace in the middle

That was the last time they saw each other...

In 2010, as part of her MoMA retrospective,
'The Artist is Present', Marina shared a minute
of silence with each stranger
who sat in front oh her

On opening night, Ulay arrive without Marina knowing...)
