Oh, Cutting Crew, congrats on making it onto the Top 90 of the ’80s!!! And that’s about all I have to say. As has been well-established, for some reason I just don’t have much to say about this song. I don’t know why that is. It’s a great song. One of the best. Obviously. So I’m not sure why I’ve got little to say about this song. But I don’t. This time we’ll chalk it up to getting over a cold and/or allergies. If this song shows up again, though, I’m going to have to come up with some new excuses. The good thing about me not having anything to write about, though, is that it means everyone gets to listen to the song that much more quickly. So maybe this is a reminder that I should just shut the hell up. I’m sure there are more than a few people who would agree with that sentiment.
“(I Just) Died In Your Arms”
<awesome Cutting Crew jam>
Oh ah!
I just died in yer arms tonight
It must’ve been somethin’ you said
I just died in yer arms toniiight
I keep lookin’ for somethin’ I can’t get
Broken hearts
Lie all around me and I don’t see
An easy way
Ta get out of this
Her diary sits by the bedside table
The curtains are closed
The cat’s in her cradle
Who would’ve thought that a boy like me
Could come to this
Oh-oh-oh, whoa
Whah
I just died in yer arms tonight
Must’ve been somethin’ you said
I just died in yer arms tonight
Oh-oh-oh, whoa
Ah
I just died in yer arms tonight
It must’ve been some kinda kiss
I shoulda walked away
I shoulda walked away
Is there any just cause
For feelin’ like this
On the surface I’m a name on a list
I try ta be discreet
But then blow it again
I’ve lost and found, it’s my final mistake
She’s lovin’ by proxy
No give and all take
‘Cause I’ve been thrilled to fantasy
One too many times
Oh-oh-oh, whoa
Whah
I just died in yer arms tonight
It must’ve been somethin’ you said
I just died in yer arms tonight
Whoa-oh-oh ah
I just died in yer arms tonight
It must’ve been some kinda kiss
I shoulda walked away
I shoulda walked away
It was a long hot night
She made it easy
She made it feel right
But now it’s over
The moment’s gone
I followed my hands not my head
I know I was wrong
<awesome Cutting Crew jam>
Ooo-whah
I just died in yer arms tonight
It must’ve been somethin’ you said
I just died in yer arms toniiight
Ooo-whah
I just died in yer arms tonight
It must’ve been some kinda kiss
I shoulda walked away
I shoulda walked away
