about

Back in the archives to 2016 and the penultimate track 5 from my unreleased synthpop era. A favourite among friends I remember writing this whole song in no more than an afternoon.
In 2020 I tried to go back and remix this now that I've developed my mixing skills but there's something raw about the original mix, a naivety I probably couldn't replicate if I tried. I absolutely love this tune and hope you do too.

Thanks for listening! 🖤

lyrics

Come a little closer just so I can whisper
Something that you've never heard before
Have a little patience, there's no need to waste it
You haven't even stepped outside the door
I never thought that I'd be walking down these streets alone
I never thought this'd be a punishment

We both know
A love like this can't last forever
We both know
A love like this can't last forever

Don't you wipe away those tears
Cause it's the only thing that reminds me
That I meant something to you
Don't you wipe away those tears
Cause it's the only thing that reminds me
It's the only thing that reminds me of you

Just for a second I thought that you were telling the truth to me
Boy was I wrong, ten years strong, you could just get up and leave

We both know
Scars this deep don't ever get better
We both know
A love like this can't last forever

Don't you wipe away those tears
Cause it's the only thing that reminds me
That I meant something to you
Don't you wipe away those tears
Cause it's the only thing that reminds me
It's the only thing that reminds me of you

A love like this can't last forever
It's the last thing that reminds me
A love like this can't last forever
So don't you, don't you, don't you baby now

Don't you wipe away those tears
Cause it's the only thing that reminds me
That I meant something to you
Don't you wipe away those tears
Cause it's the only thing that reminds me
That I meant something to you

Don't you wipe away those tears
Cause it's the only thing that reminds me
It's the only thing that reminds me
It's the only thing that reminds me of you
