One

Two

Three

You took your time to come back this time
The grass has grown under your feet
In your absence I've changed my mind
And someone else is sitting in your seat
I know that I said there be no-one else
I know that I said I'd be true
But baby - I've burned out cupid's arrow
And here's the short and the narrow
I've nothing left to offer you
All cried out
You took a whole lot of loving
for a handful of nothing
All cried out
It's hard to give you something
when you're pushing and a shoving
me around

So don't look surprised there was no disguise
You knew where I stood from the start
So stop - look around you
You're right back where I found you
Take back your cold and empty heart

All cried out
You took a whole lot of loving
for a handful of nothing
All cried out
It's hard to give you something
when you're pushing and a shoving
me around

You go your way
I'll go mine
I wont stay around here
Don't you waste my time

those werer the days the 80s
so much fun,
such a laugh

Teenage angst for me I'm afraid lol.

Invisible

You've got me so confused and
there's words I could use
But I'm afraid to say them.
I feel I've been had and I'm boiling mad
Still I can't live without you.
You don't have the time and
you won't spend a dime
Not even to call me.
You don't know I exist and I wouldn't be missed
If I had the nerve to quit you.

Invisible - I feel like I'm invisible.
You treat me like I'm not really there
and you don't really care.
I know this romance
it ain't going nowhere.
Invisible just like my love. You
treat me like I'm invisible.

When you get the need to flirt you do the work
You just don't care how much it hurts.

I can never reach you on the phone
it rings and rings
But I know you're home.

It may be naive but I just want to
believe I'm the only one.
[ Lyrics provided by www.mp3lyrics.org ]
I tell myself lies and give you alibis
Knowing your promises you'll never keep.
Like a merry-go-round
I'm going up
I'm going down
I'm on a dead end street.

Invisible - just like your love -
I feel like I'm invisible.
You treat me like I'm not really there
and you don't really care.
I know this romance
it ain't going nowhere.

Although I know it's not a lot
don't want to lose whatever we got.
I keep hanging on knowing I can't win
'Cause it's too hard start over again.
Invisible - I feel like I'm invisible. . . .
Invisible just like your love.

Great Track muffy - but I split up from my first real true love and moped around for about a month to:

It's a long time
since I saw you
well

you know how time can fly.
It seems like
yesterday we were
lovers

now we pass each other by.
But if we're left
alone tonight
don't ask me to
hold you tight.

I go weak
I go weak
I go weak

I go weak
weak in the
presence of
beauty.

All of my friends
keep asking why
I'm quiet when
you're around.
But they don't know I think
I'm so lucky to
stop myself from
falling down.

So later if you're
on your own
[ Lyrics provided by www.mp3lyrics.org ]
Don't ask me to
take you home.
I go weak
I go weak
I go weak
. . .

'Cause if we're left
alone tonight
I have no choice
but to hold you
tight.
I go weak
I go weak
I go weak
. . .
I go weak
I go weak
I go weak
. . .
Igo weak
I go weak
I go weak

I must still play that track at least once a week. The relationship must have lasted all of 6 months but the record what 20 years? lol

Awwwww Maddie I broke up with my first true love to this album lol. This song kills me mostly as I'm so ashamed I felt like this about the little scum bag lol. It bleedy hurt at the time though lol xx

For You Only

Ready to embrace the day as we both break
When the light stole in it found me wide-awake
Wasted from the sleepless night I wished to touch your hair
Withdraw an empty hand for you're no longer there
In between the silence living is an empty space
Save the ticking of the clock whose hands are sweeping past its face

And I just don't want to be lonely -no no
Night and day
But as I look around me I just feel that way
For you only

I turned my hand to something that would clear my head
But I could not forget the parting words we shared
I opened up my mind to all the pictures I could trace
But I could not recall the contours of your face

And always slipped away before I had the chance to say
If I did something wrong please tell I'd accept the blame

I just don't want to be lonely -Night and day
But as I look around me I just feel that way
For you only

For you're no longer there
For you're no longer there
In between the silence living is an empty space
Save the ticking of the clock whose hands are sweeping past its face

I just don't want to be lonely -Night and day
But as I look around me I just feel that way
For you only

Awww xx we were all silly in love once or twice or ......

Only the twice for me hon. I stayed with the third. I just wish I knew then what I know now. Also wished I'd realised how bleddy fantastic I looked as a size 6-8 I was much better than I ever believed I was. !!! Why can't we start forwards and go backwards??? grrrrrrrrrrrr. pmsl xx

6-8 good god!!!! I was an 8-10 for 30 odd years and then it spreads lol. To be honest Im happier being a 12 - 14 than I ever was really slim.

Im no oil painting but feel more comfortable with myself older than I ever did younger - maybe its a confidence thing.And going back to topic dosent Alison look fab as she has aged.

Jeeze Maddie I'm not a 6-8 anymore babe. I was when this album was out though.

I'm like you these days a 12 that veers towards a 14 but am comfortable in my own skin.

Wish to god I had been in the old days though. I'd have had a good few more stories to tell if I had the confidence then that I have now lol xx

I've always thought Alison Moyet was a very attractive girl. Very pretty face and a superb attitude.

My OH has always really fancied her. I just love the emotion she puts into her songs. What a voice!! xx

God Muffy your scaring me its like looking into a mirror and hearing my own voice!

What about Helen Terry does anyone remember her - she had a fab voice too

OOOOOOOOOOOOo yeah

She sang with Culture club.........

And I think the Communards?

Thats her!!!!! I recently managed to aquire a fairly rare album of hers called Blue Notes....cost me a small fortune.

I was so excited till I realised the record player is somewhere in the back of the loft and I cant play it!!!!

I keep leaving notes for santa - can I please have a USB record player for Christmas - i'll be really good!!!

Then I can download all my vinyl on my Ipod.

I think the Comundards singer was Sarah Jane Morris - Dont leave me this way....... Oh dear dont let me have wine and a microphone!

I'm a real sad 80s music freak lol. Manys the time I had an urgent phone call from someone doing a quiz night that have hid in the loos to phone me cos they need help lol. Trouble is I can't compute that it's over 20 yrs ago !!!!!!!!! where the hell did it go????? xx

Now I am really scared lol! Help theres a dopleganger out there lol

I wasn't 100% sure on the Communards but now you've said Sarah Jane I can see her bopping about to Don't Leave Me This Way lol xx
