Said we would never die
But what did we know
Taken away me and now
How I miss you so
But no I won't never cry
'cos I promised to
Just get the best out of life
I'll do it for me, I'll do it for you
So when I'm sick and tired
When I'm up and wired
I know exactly what to do
I cast my gaze above
Thank God for all that love
And then thank God that I'm not you.
Said we would never die
Said we would never die
And maybe it's true
Said we would never die
I loved you to death
What would I choose to say to you
With my parting breath?
Say "beauty is always sad"
But that's in the past
Just try to live your life like
Each day is your first and each day is your last.
And when you're sick of trying
Just sit right down and cry
Sometimes it's all that you can do
Cast your gaze above
Thank God for all that love
As I thank God that I found you
Said we would never die
Said we would never die
Now lets pray that it's true
Dave Wakeling (nato David Wakeling il 19 febbraio 1956 a Birmingham, Inghilterra) è un cantautore e chitarrista inglese noto per essere stato il cantante e principale compositore della band ska degli anni '80 The Beat (conosciuta negli Stati Uniti come The English Beat) e successivamente di General Public. Wakeling ha iniziato la sua carriera musicale nei primi anni '70 con gruppi locali a Birmingham, influenzato dal reggae e dalla musica ska. Nel 1978 ha fondato The Beat insieme a Ranking Roger, Andy Cox e altri musicisti. La band ha rapidamente raggiunto il successo internazionale con brani come "Mirror in the Bathroom", "Save It for Later" e "Can't Get Used to Losing You". Dopo lo scioglimento di The Beat nel 1983, Wakeling ha formato General Public, un gruppo che ha continuato a esplorare sonorità ska e reggae con influenze pop. Tra i successi di General Public si annoverano "Tenderness" e "Never Let Go". Wakeling è noto per il suo stile vocale distintivo e le sue canzoni spesso impegnate socialmente.
