What Could You Have Won

a don't know what you've got til its gone kinda theme here me thinks?

my favourite song by Milburn...

i see it as being a little story : guy goes out and gets plastered with some mates and wanted to try it on with a girl ("all he wanted was a kiss") just as the club or pub is closing, and when he goes for it he gets knocked back and "falls" because he is so leathered. He is then walking home at night drunk after being knocked back at the club; he doesn't manage to get to his phone on time or get a taxi and he's starting to feel sick so the night is ending up a total blow-out... Then because he is so drunk, he feels bored and makes a drunken call to the girl from earlier, but she maybe knocks him back again or tells him off for phoning because he is drunk and he "falls"...

"your ignorance was bliss" - maybe she was happy before she knew he liked her, but in the back of her mind she does like him so she tries to get with the guy, but maybe because she had knocked him back before or because he is sober now, the man knocks her back... and she "falls"

so it all ends in full circle

This is the best song ever made by any band!!! fukin wicked!!!! reminds me of a girl i used to know and just brings back good memories haha peaceeee xx

No No No cal i think its not cos she realises she likes him its cos she herself gets knocked back of sum other fella "You call his name and he doesn't respond " so then she wants sum company with him but i maybe wrong mate xx

My fav Song Off The Album

The songs called "What you could have won" btw not "what could you have won"

lyrics are wrong

listen to the song: It's closing time and it's getting late Can you fetch my coat cause I don't feel too great... anymore But I want to stay Don't you want to stay as well? I don't think that you do I've got this funny feeling that you don't feel like I do This conversation's just passing you by I know it, I can see it in your eyes

You've had one too many, low and behold You're telling the secrets that can't be told It feels so special, it feels so right But then you knock me back and I fall I fall to the floor

And all I wanted was a kiss All I wanted was a chance tonight

I'm walking home, I'm pissed and I'm frozen My minds being warmed up by that little token of you In your little way But they're sleeping in your today And now beeps the phone I fumble round to answer but I end up with it on hold Late night taxis keep passing me by I feel sick and look to the sky

I've had one too many, low and behold The late night lovers stay out in the cold I ring your number and feel so bold You kick me into touch and I fall to the floor

And all I wanted was a kiss All I wanted was a chance tonight

And yeah your ignorance was bliss Your ignorance was paradise Just give me a chance Just give me a sign or something Tell me what you want Cause before too long there'll be somebody else It's then that you'll know that you wanted more You call out my name but I felt too respond And knocked you back and you fall

You're not just a number Upon a computer Or a waiting list

You're not just a number Upon a computer

Or a shopping list
