Don't You
Simple Minds Lyrics


Hey, hey, hey, hey
Ooh, woah

Won't you come see about me?
I'll be alone, dancing, you know it, baby

Tell me your troubles and doubts
Giving everything inside and out and
Love's strange, so real in the dark
Think of the tender things that we were working on

Slow change may pull us apart
When the light gets into your heart, baby

Don't you, forget about me
Don't, don't, don't, don't
Don't you, forget about me

Will you stand above me?
Look my way, never love me
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down

Will you recognize me?
Call my name or walk on by
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down, down

Hey, hey, hey, hey
Ooh, woah

Don't you try and pretend
It's my feeling we'll win in the end
I won't harm you or touch your defenses
Vanity and security, ah

Don't you forget about me
I'll be alone, dancing, you know it, baby
Going to take you apart
I'll put us back together at heart, baby

Don't you, forget about me
Don't, don't, don't, don't
Don't you, forget about me

As you walk on by
Will you call my name?
As you walk on by
Will you call my name?
When you walk away

Or will you walk away?
Will you walk on by?
Come on, call my name
Will you call my name?

I say
La, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
When you walk on by
And you call my name
When you walk on by

I'm nearly 50 and proud that I was one of the millions of teenagers around the world who first witnessed music like this during the 80s. Everything about the 80s was just awesome.

@Latit. e Longit.
Yes, you're right. But all these things you've said, didn't really reach and worry me personally in my teenage years in the 80s. Even though i lived 1.5 yrs quite close to that 1st Gulf region war in Bahrain in the Persian Gulf betw. '83-'85, but we've had no worries or threat there at all. The only thing that really scared me in the 80s was Chernobyl, a 1000mls of air line dist. away. We should take care of what to eat, especially mushrooms were very contaminated, esp. in southern Germany. Also when it was raining. I'll never forget these pics from those liquidators on that roof.
And yes, when my parents visited NY in the late 70s, they've even had shooting holes in their hotel room door, still have the pics.
I guess u r from the US, right?
And last but not least...
I STAND WITH UKRAINE!
That worries me very much too, not an attack, he wouldn't try (would be his end as well)..but those threatened & massacred people, esp. these very innocent kids...just so discusting!

It was also the featured soundtrack of the fantastic movie - The Breakfast Club -
So..that was really it now! Over & out.

Ingo Bund

@Justine Mohar
U r absolutely right. I feel a bit sorry 4 u.....
We've had an awesome time, listening to that kinda music in our youth. When u wrote this, i was exactly your age, when this one bashed so hard into my head...and i STILL love it. It's a timeless masterpiece!

64 Now myself, and I wouldn’t be listening to anything else. It’s really a shame about where music has gone, so it isn’t even listenable. My kids moved out in the early 90s when it was still tolerable and once they went, I never listened to stations that played anything new. I will never forget the day I walked into our little market in this tiny town, and they had the radio on in English. It was some rap song that had lyrics, that, had they had come out of my mouth, my mother would’ve slapped my me silly! They don’t speak English here, but once I told the girl at the counter, she immediately went back to the storage part of the place and turned on some Mexican music. She had no idea what was being said, but I did, and she saw the look on my face. She knew there was something wrong but she didn’t know what. I translated for her. Now she does. They may play other English stations, but they never played that one anymore. I am the only non-born here Mexican in town, but a number of people do know some English. There is nothing like the music that you and I grew up with, and I never get tired of listening to it. I am also fan of 50s and Motown, but our music rocks, and that’s not just a play on words. Wishing you and your family all the best!
