one of the best Style Council songs - this is the version with Paul Weller's vocals
lyrics:
Empty hours
Spent combing the street
In daytime showers
They've become my beat;
As I walk from cafe to bar
I wish I knew where you are;
Because you've clouded my mind
And now I'm all out of time
Empty skies say try to forget
Better advice is to have no regrets;
As I tread the boulevard floor
Will I see you once more;
Because you've clouded my mind
'Till then I'm biding my time
I'm only sad in a natural way
And I enjoy sometimes feeling this way
The gift you gave is desire
The match that started my fire
Empty nights with nothing to do
I sit and think, every thought is for you;
I get so restless and bored
So I go out once more;
I hate to feel so confined
I feel like I'm wasting my time
I'm only sad in a natural way
And I enjoy sometimes feeling this way
The gift you gave is desire
The match that started my fire
Nice one. Haven't heard this version for years. Got a demo of it somewhere! Why isn't it available on iPhone?!!

One of the very best musical experiences ever..love this album and this song all though i do think his voice is a little streched at times but he carrys it well. But the song is amazing..one of the finest times of my life. wish i could take those days back.

Cafe Bleu was a masterpiece - and Paris Match was one of the highnotes! Still one of my favorite albums/CDs. Paul Weller and friends made an unforgettable contribution to the world of music.
