Musical Taste - Worlds Away - Strange Advance

Track Details

Worlds Away performed by Strange Advance (1982)
Composed by Drew Arnott
From: Canada
Recommended by john_l [profile] on Sunday 1st September 2002

Lush, languid progressive new wave with synthesizers, from Vancouver, that seemed to arrive out of the blue in '82. They have a number of other good songs, my personal favourites are "Just Like You" and "Alien Time".

27 Feb 03 ·Colinator: You like 'Just Like You', and so do I, so here are the lyrics:
Just Like You

She closed her eyes and spoke to me
Said 'If you could have seen the things that I have seen'
I've walked the desert of lost souls
Well the moon was late for me last night
But the dawn and I are still alive

She said 'Tell me things I want to hear
Now you're safe and sound and the coast is clear'
I saw her body move with her blue dress on
While the sun cut through venetian blinds
I was her last frontier when she said 'You're mine'

Chorus

We'll love until tomarrow
Chained to your heart I'll follow
And what you ask I'll do
Today I'm just like you

On razor edge you're falling
You're new ice age is calling
I know just what this means
Today you're just like me

I think I've gone too far this time
And I feel that I should change my point of view
Time fades like shadows in the sun
While I stand outside in the pouring rain
If I had the chance I'd do it all again

PS-There are some beggining lyrics not shown that appear only in the remix version, available on the compilation 'Worlds Away and Back'.
