In the vein of Everything But The Girl, I wanted to bring a little personal tragedy to the dance floor. I’ve always felt this song was moderately successful, but I also felt that I could do better.

lyrics

You say that you know you can't hurt me. You say I'm too strong. You stare at the stripes in the carpet and tell me things can't go on. And you presume to have power over my emotions, well, I simply don't need you. And you assume that I'm listening to your thoughtless words, well, I can just barely hear you. I won't be alone. Not this time. I won't be alone without your love.

You see all the tears in my eyes and you say you're so sorry. You know I love the smell of your perfume. You know it's not fair. And you keep on explaining what you're sure must have happened, well, it needs no explanation. And your stupidity offers me the purist of insights and I'll tell you my new inspiration: I won't be alone. Not this time. I won't be alone without your love.

Every time I think about the love that I will be without, I can't believe I ever loved you. I see through your thin disguise. You look at me to sympathize with all the things you can't undo. I won't be alone. Not this time. I won't be alone without your love.

I have been a fan & Echo Image evangelist for over 20 year. I was excited for this new EP. It did not disappoint. This has all the power and synthpop from early releases like Skulk & the Compuphonic LP. I hope a new LP will come from this. Jeff Burson - SYNTHscape radio program
