	I love INXS. One of my favourite bands of all time. I think this song is about a conflict in a relationship, a get-back-together sort of ballad - he really loves her and she knows it.. "Don't have to tell you I love your precious heart". Two people fighting in a relationship, yet come out stronger than ever. "Two worlds collided, and they could never tear us apart".

No Picture Alex Wanna Be	#2 by Alex Ovari at Nov 28, 1977 at 4:12 PM EST
	just about being madly in love and remembering the first moment when u met. its pretty self-explainitory if u ask me.

No Picture heitor Average	#3 by heitor dolinski at Feb 7, 1988 at 9:42 AM EST
	it's such a beautiful, strong song! i love the live version on the 'Live Baby Live' album. this is my fav INXS song

No Picture ...I think I'm Wanna Be	#4 by ...I think I'm addicted to ritalin... at Aug 27, 1993 at 9:14 PM EST
	somehow it says to me that love is only temporary... its pretty ambiguous though. regardless, the synth at the start is great, as is the song... very powerful stuff

No Picture Lucien Wanna Be	#5 by Lucien at Nov 6, 1994 at 11:48 PM EST
	This song is beautiful about an intense love through an instant attraction that ended bitterly. He still feels for her, though not as much as before and he's remembering the moment they first saw each other, such an all-consuming passion, and how others had criticised it.

No Picture sean Wanna Be	#6 by sean ewings at Jun 21, 1998 at 10:56 PM EST
	"We all have wings but some of us don't know why.." I think in the context of the other lyrics this is him saying something like, "we have this amazing connection...some people will never experience (or maybe never allow themselves to experience) love this powerful. Those people will never come between us for that reason."

	he's talkin about his Harley D... ;-)

No Picture Allison Average	#8 by Allison Rodrigues at Dec 3, 2006 at 12:01 AM EST
	..interesting..............

	For some reason, to me it seems like a song he wrote for his partner when she died? I don't know why, it might just be the music that makes it seem sad but the 'Never Tear Us Apart' also sort of seems as though he's saying that they'll never tear them apart even after she's gone.

No Picture evan Average	#10 by evan at Apr 8, 2007 at 10:25 AM EST
	i think that maybe this is a make-up song... the couple had a conflict, but now they're resolving it.
