You keep sayin' you've got somethin' for me
Somethin' you call love but confess
You've been a'messin' where you shouldn't 've been a'messin'
And now someone else is getting all your best

And I just remembered she (Sinead) was once a waitress at the bad ass cafe (my current name)!!!

Neon signs are flashing
Taxis, cabs and buses passing
Through the night
A distant moaning of a train
Seems to play a sad refrain

Aw I missed Nik Kershaw!

And every time you speak her name
Does she know that you told
You’d hold me until you died

Sometimes everything is wrong
Now it’s time to sing along

Honeyroar · 05/10/2021 22:06

When I came round to call
You didn’t notice me at all
(90s)

Honeyroar · 05/10/2021 22:09

You promised to put me on a magazine
On every table in every town
(80s)

Honeyroar · 05/10/2021 22:15

I’ll go all the way with you
If you’ll only do the same for me - go and see
If it’s nothing like you say
You can have your wicked way with me
(90s)

CoffeeBeansGalore · 05/10/2021 22:36

When I came round to call
You didn’t notice me at all

Plucking at straws here. I know the song but skechy on the details 🤣 The year 2000? Deborah? Boy group.

The lowest head in the crowd thar night
