I went by St.Josephs boxing club I went by the private shop I went by the things that we had done I went by old johnsfords shop I went by the steamy windows I went by the open door I went by the public houses I went by the ducks and wolves Jump back when you call me I counted 1,2,3 I wondered were you all alone, When you said goodbye to me I bought you a pen to write with I play your favourite song I tried to buy time to work things out But all I bought was wrong
Then the chorus agen... Jump back when you call me I counted 1,2,3 I wondered were you all alone, When you said goodbye to me I bought you a pen to write with I play your favourite song I tried to buy time to work things out But all I bought was wrong (Repeat) Sorry about the broken up ness... hope that helps.
This is akin to Broken Dream or Handbags and gladrags, as a Rod and Jules fan, I wonder how a colaberation would sound.Not to detract from this version by Louise Marshall , it's admirable in any sense. Regards Fletch.
i heard this track a few months go ...i thought this is a track that could relate to a lot of individual situations.i then heard it again on the jeremy vine show on radio 2 Tuesday 23/02/09 absolutely brilliant track and so powerful are the lyrics ,they hit home
Yes, heard Jools talking about how when doing a gig in Newport,he was walking through the streets and came across a couple who were having a row, the girl wanted to end the relationship,then went back to hotel and wrote the song,
there is another postin on you tube that has photos of all the shops etc ..that he walked by...its awesome...close to tears with its realism I was...ha ha! Ok now tho! but such a song...check my favourites to view it if u cant find it...peace
Every time I hear this, sends chills up my spine and brings a tear to my eye. When I saw it live, she had the whole hall on the verge of crying. Louise has a sublime voice and, though I'm not usually one to notice or care, she is the very picture of beauty.
I heard Louise sing this one night on JH and was blown away. Who wrote it? She sings it so damn well.

She is indeed top class.. and loving what she's doing, which is maybe a whole lot classier than just being a pawn of the pop machine.

Yes, I heard that too. Was it on Jonathan Ross? I think Jools was staying in a suite at the Celtic Manor - that's why he had the piano in the room!
