When i want you


(Currie)

You sent greetings from Liverpool
and I took the next train
Passed by people putting flowers on graves and
We got delayed
When I arrived you had vanished like steam
and left me in a diesel day
So I walked around and spent ten pounds
in amusement arcades

Felt like I was in a field
looking for a pin

It's a kind of loneliness
It's a kind of emptiness
But I'm not trying I'm just rehearsing
For the perfect day

When I want you, I'll come looking for you
Yes I will, yes I will, yes I will.

I took a spoon to the swimming pool
to drain your trace away
And I changed my name so only my looks remain
And if looks could kill I'd need a license for my face
'Cos where his fists put bruises
A scheming smile now takes their place

Felt like I was in a field
looking for a pin

It's a kind of loneliness
It's a kind of emptiness
But I'm not trying I'm just rehearsing
For the perfect day

When I want you, I'll come looking for you
Yes I will, yes I will, yes I will

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics WHEN I WANT YOU of DEL AMITRI is also present in the album Waking hours (1989)

Biografia

Del Amitri is a Scottish rock band formed in Glasgow in 1980. The group was founded by Justin Currie, who after playing in a school band, placed an ad in a music store to find musicians to form a new project. The initial lineup included Currie (bass and vocals), Iain Harvie (lead guitar), Bryan Tolland (guitar) and Paul Tyagi (drums). Currie and Harvie are the only members to have remained continuously throughout the band's history, also being the main songwriters. Del Amitri achieved success in the 1990s with albums like "Change the World" and "Twisted", characterized by catchy pop-rock melodies and introspective lyrics. Among their most famous songs are "Always the Last to Know", "The Rest of the Day" and "Someday Soon".
