Where are those happy days, they seem so hard to find
I tried to reach for you, but you have closed your mind
Whatever happened to our love?
I wish I understood
It used to be so nice, it used to be so good
So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me
S. o. s.
The love you gave me, nothing else can save me
S. o. s.
When you're gone
How can I even try to go on?
When you're gone
Though I try how can I carry on?

You seem so far away though you are standing near
You made me feel alive, but something died I fear
I really tried to make it out
I wish I understood
What happened to our love, it used to be so good

So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me
S. o. s.
The love you gave me, nothing else can save me
S. o. s.
When you're gone
How can I even try to go on?
When you're gone
Though I try how can I carry on?

So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me
S. o. s.
And the love you gave me, nothing else can save me
S. o. s.
When you're gone
How can I even try to go on?
When you're gone
Though I try how can I carry on?
When you're gone
How can I even try to go on?
When you're gone
Though I try how can I carry on?

    ABBA, what? ;)

    it's a great COVER, but it's not one of the best by the caddies, because in order for it to be by the caddies they have to have written it.

    Man, I had no idea it was a cover. Still a good song. People say that ska can't be sad, and that's just for emo but many times I've listened to sad ska in times of pain like this. This is so how I feel right now having just broken up with my boyfriend of almost 7 months a week ago. I'm still sad and not over it.... like a dipshit emotard.

    No idea it was a cover lol? What are you, 12?

    If you hang around people that think ska "can't be sad", I'm sorry but you hang around idiots.

    I just realised I'm replying to a message from 2004. I'm the idiot now.
