![]() The Dance (1997) [ larger cover art ] |
Once again she steals away
Then she reaches out to kiss me
And how she takes my breath away
Pretending that she won't miss me
Oohh I would bleed to love her
Bleed to love her
Oohh I would bleed to love her
And once again she calls to me
Then she vanishes in thin air
And how she takes my breath away
Pretending that she's not there
Oohh I would bleed to love her
Bleed to love her
Oohh I would bleed to love her
Somebody's got to see this through
All the world is laughing at you
Somebody's got to sacrifice
If this whole thing's going to turn out right
Oohh I would bleed to love her
Bleed to love her
Oohh I would bleed to love her
Then she reaches out to kiss me
And how she takes my breath away
Pretending that she won't miss me
Oohh I would bleed to love her
Bleed to love her
Oohh I would bleed to love her
And once again she calls to me
Then she vanishes in thin air
And how she takes my breath away
Pretending that she's not there
Oohh I would bleed to love her
Bleed to love her
Oohh I would bleed to love her
Somebody's got to see this through
All the world is laughing at you
Somebody's got to sacrifice
If this whole thing's going to turn out right
Oohh I would bleed to love her
Bleed to love her
Oohh I would bleed to love her

That said, it's a fine song, and Lindsey rules. |

| gofishbish (somewhere between the keyboard and the chair) | Posted: Jun 23, 2009 - 06:12 This song should have been all over commercial radio and I did not hear it, not once, until RP. Radio is Dead. Long live Radio Paradise. |

| Hodgie (Dover, NH) | Posted: Mar 04, 2009 - 07:40 Surprise, surprise. Didn't expect to hear or certainly like anything these guys might conjure up. Five seconds into this song, it had me. Lindsey Buck has one of those voices...ya know, just one of those voices that works for many. Whoopsy...it's 12 years old. |
| nagsheadlocal (North Carolina, the new New Jersey) | Posted: Mar 04, 2009 - 07:40 Yet more proof that Lindsey was the brains in the later versions of the band - yet all the attention was on the hippie chick with the gypsy fetish and the druggies/alkies. I was delivering an ad proof to a local radio station a few years ago and he was in the studio doing an appearance in conjunction with a local concert. He played this song, and he played his heart out. I watched over the monitor and thought "what a shame, here is this guy with massive talent, playing a wonderful composition for a couple of jerk DJs on morning drive time." Really is no justice in the universe. |

| michaelgmitchell (Belleville, ON Canada) | Posted: Nov 29, 2008 - 12:05 Lindsey . . . wow. What a talent. I love his solo stuff. So gritty, reckless, risky. Big thumbs-up. I had never heard this before. Thanks, Bill. |

If you have DirecTV and get HD programming, HDNET is showing a live show of Lindsay this month. It is truely awesome, he can really play a guitar and write great music. He was why Fleetwood Mac was any good, though I didn't know it at the time. IMO |
