Head Over Heels by Tears for Fears

As some of the songs listed in this blog, i fell in love with this song when i was in high school. This was released way back in 1985, but thanks to Augy, my eldest brother, this song came to my senses during 4th year HS. I had a big crush on someone (as in head over heels), if i remember it was the same girl from the Spandau Ballet "True" entry, so the lyrics made sense to me (at least that's what it seems to me). Listening to it right now, I can't believe that this song also has an awesome bass line.




I wanted to be with you alone
And talk about the weather
But traditions I can trace against the child in your face
Wont escape my attention
You keep your distance with a system of touch
And gentle persuasion
I'm lost in admiration could I need you this much
Oh, you're wasting my time
You're just wasting time

Something happens and I'm head over heels
I never find out till I'm head over heels
Something happens and I'm head over heels
Ah don't take my heart
Don't break my heart
Don't throw it away

I made a fire and watching burn
Thought of your future
With one foot in the past now just how long will it last
No no no have you no ambition
My mother and my brothers used to breathe in clean in air
And dreaming I'm a doctor
It's hard to be a man when theres a gun in your hand
Oh I feel so...

Something happens and I'm head over heels

And this my four leaf clover
I'm on the line, one open mind
This is my four leaf clover
