Before the light of day
Reveals itself
I am assured she won't forget
But still I will console myself
Should I lose something I could regret?
But now she turns to leave
Exactly like she used to do
Did nobody warn you boy?
Love's in vogue again my love
Did nobody tell you girl?
Love's in vogue again my love
Before the light of day
I awake
She's clearly not herself today
Across a crowded room life begins
Before the moment drifts away
How bitter the morning feels
Exactly like it ought to do
Reveals itself
I am assured she won't forget

Should I lose something I could regret?
But now she turns to leave
Exactly like she used to do
Love's in vogue again my love
Did nobody tell you girl?
Love's in vogue again my love
I awake
She's clearly not herself today
Across a crowded room life begins
Before the moment drifts away
How bitter the morning feels
Exactly like it ought to do

truly wonderful song. I love the way Sylvian elongates the words.
Defining the meaning of New Romantic, Sylvian crooning at its best. It’s trying to make things work with an ex. No confidence, no sense of security. Not wanting to surrender to love, even though it’s too late. New Romantic movement in the UK. It was a time when romance was, in fact, in vogue.
this is such a beautifull song, as soon as it starts im captivated by it, its so full of longing and regret, it always makes me think of an ex-girlfiend that i missed for years after we split up! i love playing along to this song on my bass guitar, it hypnotises me!
