"So we meet again!" and I offer my hand
All dry and English slow
And you look at me and I understand
Yeah it's a look I used to know
"Three long years and your favorite man
Is that any way to say hello?"
And you hold me like you'll never let me go
"Oh c'mon and and have a drink with me
Sit down and talk a while..."
"Oh I wish I could and I will!
But now I just don't have the time"
And over my shoulder as I walk away
I see you give that look goodbye
I still see that look in your eye
So dizzy Mr Busy, too much rush to talk to Billy
All the silly frilly things have to first get done
In a minute sometime soon, maybe next time, make it June
Until later doesn't always come
It's so hard to think "It ends sometime
And this could be the last
I should really hear you sing again
And I should really watch you dance"
Because it's hard to think
"I'll never get another chance
To hold you to hold you"
But chilly Mr Dilly, too much rush to talk to Billy
All the tizzy fizzy idiot things must get done
In a second, just hang on, all in good time, won't be long
Until later
I should've stopped to think, I should've made the time
I could've had that drink, I could've talked a while
I would've done it right, I would've moved us on
But I didn't, now it's all too late
It's over, over
And you're gone
I miss you, I miss you, I miss you
I miss you, I miss you, I miss you so much
But how how many times can I walk away and wish "If only"
But how many times can I talk this way and wish "If only"
Keep on making the same mistake
Keep on aching the same heartbreak
I wish "If only"
But "If only"
Is a wish too late
All dry and English slow
And you look at me and I understand
Yeah it's a look I used to know
"Three long years and your favorite man
Is that any way to say hello?"
And you hold me like you'll never let me go
"Oh c'mon and and have a drink with me

"Oh I wish I could and I will!

Not sure how I missed this gem over the years...
Where's my crimping iron?...oh crap...where's my hair? seem to have lost them both...
Awww. Never heard this The Cure song before. Which is good, as it's making me fetch my hankie.

Turns out even though it's on a "Greatest Hits" album it was never previously released.

Thought this was Conor Oberst at the onset.
This sounds like a very familiar 60's instrumental hit in the UK, but for the life of me I can't find it...
Strikes me now how much bands like New Order plumbed and mined similar styles with great success. Love how waves propagate...
Sure that I heard this album in its entirety years ago, but today this caught my ear...a gem. Love when that happens...
Thanks for the deep tracks, Bill. Bravo.

YES! More Cure!!!!!!!!!!!!
love The Cure, but not super fond of this. Kind of 'plain' for them.

This was one of their hits? I'm almost certain I've never even heard it before, and here I thought I was a Cure fan!
