Bangles, The - I'll Set You Free Lyrics






I remember eyes that shined
As they looked so hard back into mine
Now it's just a memory
So I'll set you free

I hear you through the wire
The words all sound like noise
What happened to the fire in your voice
Don't try to hide the distance
It's just too big to ignore
We work it out like business
It won't work anymore

I remember eyes that shined
As they looked so hard back into mine
Now it's just a memory
So I'll set you free
oh-oh, I'll set you free

Still sometimes late at night
Moonlight comes into my window
I can make believe it's how it used to be
We made it look so easy
You never tried to resist
Somehow you stopped believing
Somehow we've come to this

I remember eyes that shined
As they looked so hard back into mine
Now it's just a memory
So I'll set you free
I remember words that fell
Like coins into a wishing well
This was never meant to be
So I'll set you free
oh-oh, I'll set you free

So now I must go on
What more can I do
What good is being strong
When all I ever really want is you

I remember eyes that shined
As they looked so hard back into mine
Now it's just a memory
So I'll set you free
I remember words that fell
Like coins into a wishing well
This was never meant to be
So I'll set you free
oh-oh, I'll set you free

(I remember eyes that shined) I remember-ahhhh
(As they looked so hard back into mine) (all i want is you oo)

All I want is you

I remember-ahh (I remember words that fell like coins into a wishing
well) (all I want is you)

'Cause you want what I want, 'cause you want what I want-aaay-oooh
ohh ohh

(I remember eyes that shined as they looked so hard back into mine)
(all i want is you ooh, all i want is you)

  15. l.... i....

    Could she be any more beautiful ,,,, I don't think so .........

  16. K.... R....

    The Bangles are one of my all time favorite bands,male or female it doesn't matter.I just think it's a shame that they broke up and it's also a shame that they didn't make a video for this song.

    K.... R....

    Everything in that comment is 101% accurate... ;-)

  17. L.... B....

    Me gusta mucho la música de Bangles y este tema es muy bueno.
    Gracias por subirlo. Bendiciones.

  18. J.... W....

    NOT EVEN LIP SYNCING????

  19. D.... G....

    Es lo unico que me gusta de Usa,su musica,gracias X subirlo Agente Lucho, y para mi es esta la mejor canción de bangles

  20. v.... m....

    I'm really surprised that they never made a music video for this song.

  21. M.... T....

    Very underrated song!

  22. o.... R....

    Bangles Number one!! I'm a fan of them since 1985 and it's as Unique as wonderful "Everything" Concerning BANGLES!!

  23. B.... M....

    This is a great divorce song.

  24. P.... M....

    I remember eyes that shine As they looked so hard back into mine. gorgeous lyrics very moving

  25. C.... G....

    I far prefer this mix to the one on the original. This mix makes the songs sound bigger, fuller, and more alive.

    C.... G....

    Christina Gmiterko you are sooo right

  26. t.... ....

    Never remembered this as a single, but from when I bought the greatest hits in late summer 1990, and it will always remind of someone I knew then.....Love the song.

  27. D.... L....

    Is this way too too close to Cindy Lauper for comfort, or what?

  28. D.... L....

    how these guys ever 'blended' the way they did into such a formidably right and powerful WHOLE is quite beyond me...

  29. R.... W....

    a really beautiful song. Shame all we get in the charts now is screaming from Katy Perry and Taylor Swift as they sing their crap songs. No wonder the music's industry's in such a mess.

  30. s.... ....

    Man, I was excited for a second thinking this was an actual video for this song!

  31. W.... E....

    Such a brilliant song

  32. C.... ....

    I'll Set You Free is a really good song. Thanks for posting, AGENTELUCHO.

  33. m.... m....

    wow suzanna hoffs looks more beautiful every time I see her so talented and super sexy

  34. k.... P....

    Susan Boyle is hotter

  35. E.... A....

    "Still sometimes late at night, moonlight comes into my window..."

  36. C.... T....

    Their voices blend together so well, and the band is so talented.

  37. E.... U....

    Beautiful and poignant song that I heard for the first time only this weekend. Thank you for posting.

  38. V.... C....

    i will take vicki

  39. V.... C....

    las amooooooo

  40. M.... ....

    I wonder how many people know this was actually the breakup song for the Bangles, too. I remember Susannah Hoffs talking about it in an interview.

    M.... ....

    wow really? I never knew the reason they split..

    M.... ....

    such a shame. they were great together

  41. c.... m....

    hottest female band that account play instruments

  42. k.... ....

    バングルスで一番好きな曲だ♪

  43. R.... G....

    I
    remember eyes that shined

    As they looked so hard back into mine

    Now it's just a memory

    So I'll set you free

  44. R.... G....

    ETERNAL FLAMES!

  45. R.... G....

    1 of my fave rock & roll band of all time!

  46. j.... i....

    This vid comes from if she knew what she wants 1st version

  47. D.... R....

    Wow the bass player is a fox !

    D.... R....

    No. She came back around '03 and played some gigs with them, but it didn't last.

    D.... R....

    She was my dads favorite Bangle. We saw they in 2006 and he was disappointed not to get to see her, but it was still a good show.

    D.... R....

    Dennis Rivenburg She returned with them from 1999 to 2004 (officially 2005). Then she left the band and eventually she retires from the music.

    D.... R....

    Isn't she a lesbian?

    D.... R....

    @Frank Mccormick Aren't you?

  48. �.... ....

    うわー懐かしいわ

  49. M.... ....

    Lowen and Navarro....rip Eric

  50. H.... ....

    ' I rember eyes that shined as they looked so hard back into mine ' .... a very powerful & touching lyric

    One of THEE MOST underrated BREAK-UP songs ever ,its awesome love it

    H.... ....

    "When All is Said and Done," by ABBA is probably #1

    H.... ....

    I think this song and Waiting For You are their most underrated songs, they should be much better known than they are. Great pop songs.

    H.... ....

    "Dance (while the music still goes on)", from ABBA, is also an awesome breakup song.

  51. B.... W....

    What is this actual video from?  I can't find it on any of their other songs.  Still very well done with this song though!

    B.... W....

    +Bruce White i think most of it the uk version of if she knew what she wants

  52. A.... B....

    What a fantastic B-Side......This is in my top 100

  53. H.... S....

    I remember me even \0
    SO I'll set you freeeee 😘😘😘👊👏

  54. A.... J....

    I used to get the mick taken out of me back in 1994 when i was 11/12 when i used to blast this on repeat! Its a great song still to this day dont get what the issue was with other kids back then

  55. B.... A....

    I remember words that fell
    Like coins into a wishing well.

  56. 9.... ....

    This is my favourite Bangles song of all time.  It's too bad they never released it.

    9.... ....

    Was released in the UK

    9.... ....

    I think also in germany? It runs on the radio.

    9.... ....

    It was most definitely released in the US. Its on their album I have sitting here.

    9.... ....

    James Anderson I think the original comment was referring to it being released as a single. It was a worldwide album track but was released as a single in the UK and Australia.

    9.... ....

    Not just my fav Bangles song, but one of my favorite songs by anyone

  57. R.... M....

    It could have been the formal fourth single from "Everything", but it appears everything had gone to hell in a handbasket by then.  It did make their 1991 "Greatest Hits" disc, in a remixed and edited version from the original.  Chic's Bernard Edwards was brought in to handle the remix version. What could have been!

    R.... M....

    This was the fourth single released from the album in the UK.

    R.... M....

    I prefer the original album version. This remix dates it.

    R.... M....

    The remix really hits you right from the start with that amazing vocal, huh

  58. D.... ....

    A video was never made for this song due to the band breaking up as the album made it's way up and down the charts

  59. C.... S....

    very beautiful song for fall weather!

  60. P.... M....

    Say isn't this video in fact, "If She Knew What She Wants" with another song?

    P.... M....

    I was wondering what this video was from lol

    P.... M....

    But it seems to fit! @tonyajw85

    P.... M....

    Great Song

    P.... M....

    @tonyajw85 I was wondering why Vickie was rocking out on an electric guitar when there were only acoustic guitars playing at that moment.

  61. m.... ....

    This is a great compilation.
