Hell, I gave up my time
For a no good affair
You'd think I'd learned by now
To be taken in
By a perfect stranger
That I had the know how
Still more fool me
For kidding myself
That's the way it should be
Maybe I should grow up
Would I feel confined to the same space?
Or would I feel that I talked myself into a corner?
So long, you're no friend of mine
You're false and unkind
You're indestructible
No place I'd rather be
Than in the ring with you
We'd go twenty rounds
Still more fool me
For killing myself
That's the way it should be
Maybe I should grow up
Would I feel confined to the same space?
Or would I feel that I talked myself into a corner?
I see the sky move above me
But I just can't take control
What a sweet sensation
Wo ah
Oh love, sweet sweet love
Hell, I gave up my time
For a no good affair
You'd think I'd learned by now
To be taken in
By a perfect stranger
That I had the know how
Still more fool me
For kidding myself
That's the way it should be
Maybe I should grow up
Would I feel confined to the same space?
Or would I feel that I talked myself into a corner?
The lyrics PERFECT STRANGER of ERASURE is also present in the album Chorus (1989)
Erasure è un duo britannico di synth-pop formatosi a Londra nel 1985 da Vince Clarke (ex Depeche Mode) e Andy Bell. Conosciuti per il loro sound orecchiabile, melodie accattivanti e testi spesso introspettivi, Erasure ha ottenuto un enorme successo commerciale negli anni '90 con hit come "Sometimes", "A Little Respect" e "Love to Hate You". Il duo ha venduto oltre 25 milioni di dischi in tutto il mondo, conquistando la scena musicale britannica e internazionale. La loro musica è caratterizzata da sintetizzatori pulsanti, ritmi dance e una forte componente melodica. Andy Bell, con la sua voce distintiva e il suo carisma scenico, ha contribuito a rendere Erasure un'icona della cultura gay. Tra i loro album più importanti ricordiamo "The Innocents" (1988), "Wild!" (1991) e "Chorus" (1995). Erasure continua ad essere attivo oggi, pubblicando nuovi album e intraprendendo tour internazionali.
