i've been in love before

i'm suddenly sucked into a time warp and travelling back to the 80s...

granted, there've been some really great music in the recent years but whatever happened to all the sappy love ballads with hauntingly beautiful melodies and simple lyrics?

cutting crew's "i've been in love before" from their debut album "broadcast" is one of those gems.



I've Been in Love Before (1987)
by Cutting Crew

Catch my breath, close my eyes
Don't believe a word.
Things she said, overheard
Something wrong inside
Hits you in a minute, Ooo
Then you know you're in it, aah.

I've been in love before
I've been in love before
The hardest part is when you're in it
I've been in love before
I've been in love before

Just one touch, just one look
A dangerous dance
One small word can make me feel
Like running away
You can't say you're in it, no, until you reach the limit

I've been in love before
I've been in love before
The hardest part is when you're in it
I've been in love before
I've been in love before

I've been in love before
I've been in love before
The hardest part is when you're in it
I've been in love before
I've been in love before

I've been in love
The hardest part is when you're in it
I've been in love
I've been in love before
