I just got the Ultimate Collection CD of Swing Out Sister. And I have to say that i just adore this group. Their songs have the most gripping melodies and the most poignant lyrics and i can't get enough of them. Here are lyrics of my favorite songs from the album.
What Kind of Fool Are You?
Somewhere
Somehow
Take me to the place I knew so well
When life was all it was supposed to be
Love me
Hate me
Make me feel invisible again
I could forget I ever knew your name
What kind of fool are you?
When all you want is everything
What kind of fool are you
When you don't want my love
Who knows
Who cares
Why you had to play this stupid game
You know you've only got yourself to blame
What kind of fool are you?
When all you want is everything
What kind of fool are you
When you don't want my love
How many times did I hear my friends tell me that I should have known better
How many times did I listen to a word they said
How could I know that there really wasn't someone else
That you were loving instead?
What kind of fool are you
When you find that all you're searching for means nothing at all
With no-one by your side
Now You’re Not Here
Love was young
We saw beyond a sky that had no limits
Much higher than the highest star
Beyond the furthest planet
We thought that we could change the world
And everything in it
But time ran out of endless hours
Gave into doubt, were we just playing an endless game
That no one ever wins
If I could run away
Hide away
Forget the way I feel
But your memory keeps haunting me
Convincing me it's real
Now you're not here
Now you're not here
Love and hate
Left up to fate
A life we took for granted
We couldn't stop our running from the things we always wanted
No long goodbyes
No tears to cry
And nothing to believe in
But now you're gone
We'll never know a love that's grown
Time took away
All that it gave to the two of us
If I could run away
Hide away
Forget the way I feel
But your memory keeps haunting me
Convincing me it's real
Now you're not here
Now you're not here
When our hearts were young and nights were long
We'd let the morning sun kiss our eyes open
Precious dreams that we had now they are dead and gone
The promises we made have all been broken
If I could run away
Hide away
Forget the way I feel
But your memory keeps haunting me
Convincing me it's real
Now you're not here
Now you're not here
In my arms
In my life
Lovin' you, is just a memory
Now you're not here
Now you're not here
With me now, in my arms, in my mind, in my life
Where The Hell Did I Go Wrong?
I could have loved you but I couldn't lie
Even if you asked me to
I could have fooled you from the very start
Carried on deceiving you
But time let me down
Turned my whole world around and I stayed for too long
Where the hell did I go wrong?
Won't you tell me
I didn't want you to know
Where the hell did I go wrong?
You saw right through me but you didn't care
Love was just a game to you
You started something that I couldn't stop
Even if you asked me to
I was lost in your smile
And my heart couldn't hide what you knew all along
Where the hell did I go wrong?
Won't you tell me
I didn't want you to know
Where the hell did I go wrong?
I don't know if I should laugh or if I should cry
I know I've fallen in love and I don't know why
But I know I'm alive
Where the hell did I go wrong?
Won't you tell me
I didn't want you to know
Where the hell did I go wrong?
Lyrics pa lang 'yan,wait 'till you hear it with the melody.
I'm so in love with Swing Out Sister!
