Sandie Shaw : Run

[1966]

Groovy baby.

A jaunty, spooky and utterly paranoid lil' tune.

 

I guess this horrifying scenario could be the continuation of the story from her previous single Nothing Comes Easy where she follows a guy around, he falls for her then she gets bored of him but then he starts following her around. All a good bit of stalking fun with cool 60s arrangements.

Nothing Comes Easy - Sandie Shaw [1966]

There are some things that people need
Someone so badly they will creep
All I wanted was someone
I have him now, it is done
Nothing comes easy
Nothing comes easy
I had a hard time getting him
And I'm regretting it now

Each place he'd go, there I'd be
I made each move so carefully
And all my scheming did work well
In the end, for me he fell
Nothing comes easy
Nothing comes easy
I had a hard time getting him
And I'm regretting it now

He was just as I expected
Nothing lasts too much
He gave me everything that I asked for
At the start, everything was fine
I was filled with every touch
Then one day when I was with him
I realised that I didn't want him any more

Now he won't leave me alone
He follows me each place I go
He says he don't want anyone new
There must be something I can do
Nothing comes easy
Nothing comes easy
I had a hard time getting him
And I'm regretting it now
