He said,
I'm not dead but don't wake me ever
'Cos I may have to think this through
She said she's changed her mind
and I didn't try to put it right
Though I've every reason to
I don't know, she wouldn't say
Exactly when
she intends to mince her light fantastic my way
And make my very best day
Let me tell you the way it will always be
He'll see it all but he won't see me
And didn't I give hime every sign
That his best days are leaving me behind
Later - if it's her you can say I've gone away
I get nowhere peachy keen
You tell her next week
and maybe find out where they're going
So I know where I should be
She's got a nerve and thats okay but I want to hear
When she's finally got something decent to say
Could be my very best day
Let me tell you the way it will always be
He'll see it all but he won't see me
And didn't I give hime every sign
That his best days are leaving me behind
What exactly do you want me to say
No I don't feel good for you
And you can get that girl out of my face
I don't enjoy her like you do
And this is the way it will always be
He's seen it all but he won't see me
And how do I show him diamond skies
When all he has are best days in his eyes
I'm not dead but don't wake me ever

I have nothing against this song. It's better than its rating.
sounds like Alison Moyet signing. Is that her?

that's a good thing.

Me too. This might make me wiggle my butt here in my chair.
This band has a cool name - especially how it came to be. Word is they were listening to Prince's "Raspberry Beret" and the part where he sings "thunder drowns out what the lightning sees" was mistakenly heard as "lightning seeds" by the band. And the rest is history. A little bit anyway.

These guys are flaky as hell, but I kind of like some of their stuff. This one sounds like Duran Duran, though.
