Were you lying all the time?
Was it just a game to you?
But I’m in so deep
You know I’m such a fool for you
Taken from the song Linger by Irish band The Cranberries from their debut album Everybody Else is Doing It so Why Can’t We? (1993), and the first album I remember buying. It topped the charts both in the UK and Ireland and reached the top 20 in the US. Even now the voice of the (sadly late) Dolores O’Riordan still blows me away.
Beautiful lyrics- incredible talent was her
Yes she wrote them too. You can tell they were written from the heart.
Absolutely
sad lyrics and i agree about her voice
She had so much emotion in her voice. Zombie is brilliant. The anger and hurt and helplessness and overall passion.
Hey, that’s my birth year! 🙂
Beautiful lyrics, I hadn’t come across this band before.
You’ll love the song! Her voice is Irish velvet.
She had an amazing voice. So powerful and emotive.
Yeah. Just gorgeous. Are there any singers whose voice really grab you?
I was just talking about how beautiful the song Daffodils Lament is. “I have decided to leave you forever
I have decided to start things from here
Thunder and lightning won’t change what I’m feelin’
And the daffodils look lovely today.”
So sad she is gone.
She had such a wonderful way with words. A sad loss. Thanks for reminding me of it.
I love this song. The Cranberries were so big when I was a young teenager.
