Swing Out Sister - Make You Stay Lyrics






Summer friend
Said you were leaving without saying when
Now sades of winder fade a deeper blue
A frozen picture's all that's left of you

Shimmering
A city sprawl beneath a neon sky
The future fading as you close your eyes
Lying awake through every dreamless night
That one last look gave you away
This time I thought I'd make you stay

Suddenly
Those endless summers are a memory
A world that wasn't ever meant to be
An empty space that no-one else could see

Helplessly
Drowned in the darkness of the deepest night
You came back to me and made it right
Twisting, pouring every breath of life
That one last look gave you away
This time I'd thought I'd make you stay

Warm as a feeling
Warm as a thought you can't explain
Cold as a winter
Cold as the frozen tears on your face
Wide as the future
Wide as this open empty space
Silent and broken
Yesterday seemed so far away

I thought I'd make you stay
I'd make you stay
But one last look gave you away

    I love this album so much, but I can't find it in HK...

    Same here, I'm also from HK and I haven't found this album yet.  All they have are their greatest hits CDs even at the larger CD shops.  Nothing much at second-hand CD shops or auction sites either. Do you have their "Live in Japan" CD from 2005? Thanks!

  8. S.... ....

    Thank you for posting your 'Filth & Dreams' CD.. They never released this in the US so this is a rare find..

    S.... ....

    +Susquehanna80 neither in Belgium or UK... I'm a fan from the very first hour...the last CD I bought was Beautiful Mess... SO happy I discovered this today....

    S.... ....

    Nor have they released it in Hong Kong ever. The last CD I bought was also Beautiful Mess.  They supposedly have 2 new releases after that - "Private View" from 2010 and "Rushes" from 2015.  Anyone have those?  I'm also looking for their "Live in Japan" CD from 2005.  Please upload anything you can find, Swing Out Sister fans all over the world have a hard time looking for their albums.
