Spandau Ballet – 1983 – TRUE (HD Remastered)

I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me completeOh simple thing, where have you gone?
I’m getting old and I need someone to rely on
So tell me when you’re gonna let me in
I’m getting tired and I need somewhere to beginI came across a fallen tree
I felt the branches of it looking at me
Is this the place we used to love?
Is this the place that I’ve been dreaming of?And if you have a minute, why don’t we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don’t we go somewhere only we know?Oh simple thing, where have you gone?
I’m getting old and I need someone to rely on
So tell me when you’re gonna let me inI’m getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
And if you have a minute, why don’t we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don’t we go? Somewhere only we know
Somewhere only we know

Spandau Ballet – 1983 – Gold (HD Remastered)

Thank you for coming home
Sorry that the chairs are all worn
I left them here I could have sworn
These are my salad days
Slowly being eaten away
Just another play for today
Oh, but I’m proud of you, but I’m proud of you
Nothing left to make me feel small
Luck has left me standing so tall
Gold
(Gold)
Always believe in your soul
You’ve got the power to know
You’re indestructible
Always believe in, ’cause you are
Gold
(Gold)
Glad that you’re bound to return
There’s something I could have learned
You’re indestructible
Always believe in
After the rush has gone
I hope you find a little more time
Remember we were partners in crimeIt’s only two years ago
The man with the suit and the face
You knew that he was there on the case
Now he’s in love with you, he’s in love with you
But love is like a high prison wall
And you could leave me standing so tall
Gold
(Gold)
Always believe in your soul
You’ve got the power to know
You’re indestructible
Always believe in, ’cause you are
Gold
(Gold)
I’m glad that you’re bound to return
There’s something I could have learned
You’re indestructible
Always believe inBut love is like a high prison wall
And you could leave me standing so tall
Gold
(Gold)
Always believe in your – soul
You’ve got the power to know
You’re indestructible
Always believe in, ’cause you are
Gold
(Gold)
I’m glad that you’re bound to return
Something I could have learned
You’re indestructible
Always believe in
(Gold)

Tony Hadley – Somewhere Only We Know – 2015

I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete
Oh simple thing, where have you gone?
I’m getting old and I need someone to rely on
So tell me when you’re gonna let me in
I’m getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
I came across a fallen tree
I felt the branches of it looking at me
Is this the place we used to love?
Is this the place that I’ve been dreaming of?
And if you have a minute, why don’t we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don’t we go somewhere only we know?
Oh simple thing, where have you gone?
I’m getting old and I need someone to rely on
So tell me when you’re gonna let me in
I’m getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
And if you have a minute, why don’t we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don’t we go?
Somewhere only we know
Somewhere only we know
