Transcribed by Jon Brooks Goldie, When you had all the time in the world, To remember to call me, You were making your plans for a move, In the future alone.... Now the summer has gone, And you're moving on, Start over again..... Goldie, What you did, in space, when you lost, All your memories, You told me, To believe all the things that you said, When we were alone, Now the summer has gone, And we're moving on, Start over again.... (chorus) Goldie, You never say what you mean, Don't mean what you say, I spend hours working, You never get out of bed.... Goldie, You wanna say what you want, What a woman should need, Makes me feel special, Makes me feel tired..... Goldie, When you had all the time in the world, To remember to call me, You were making your plans for a move, In the future alone.... Now the summer has gone, And you're moving on, Start over again..... Goldie, You never say what you mean, Don't mean what you say, I spend hours working, You never get out of bed.... Goldie, You wanna say what you want, What a woman should need, Make me feel special, Makes me feel tired..... Goldie, I'm kinda looking for something, I kinda think you should know, Love is the answer, All day on the phone.... Goldie, You never say what you mean, Don't mean what you say, I spend hours working, You never get out of bed..... Now the summer has gone, And you're moving on, Start over again..... Goldie..... Goldie......

Other opinions

a lush ballad, with beautiful vocal arrangements. a bit weak as a single though - i can't see it being a hit (not that it matters). can't decide if it's a tribute to Blue Peter, or a nod towards here 'junglist' roots! ;-) this may not make any sense to anyone outside of the uk... it's all about someone (goldie) who never keeps his promises - all mouth and no trousers, as we say in sunny england! example lyrics: "Goldie, you never say what you mean Don't mean what you say I spend hours working You never get out of bed"
