I'll Set You Free Lyrics


I hear you through the wire
The words all sound like noise
What happened to the fire in your voice
Don't try to hide the distance
It's just too big to ignore
We work it out like business
It won't work anymore
I remember eyes that shine
As they looked so hard back into mine
Now it's just a memory
So I'll set you free
I'll set you free
Still sometimes late at night
Moonlight comes into my window
I make believe it's how it used to be
We made it look so easy
We never tried to resist
Somehow you stopped believing

Somehow we've come to this
I remember eyes that shine
As they looked so hard back into mine
Now it's just a memory
So I'll set you free
I remember words that fell
Like coins into a wishing well
It was never meant to be
So I'll set you free
I'll set you free
So now I must go on
What more can I do?
What good is being strong?
When all I ever really want is you
I remember eyes that shine
As they looked so hard back into mine
Now it's just a memory
So I'll set you free
I remember words that fell
Like coins into a wishing well
It was never meant to be
So I'll set you free
I'll set you free
I remember eyes that shine
As they looked so hard back into mine
All I want is you
I remember words that fell
Like coins into a wishing well
I remember eyes that shine
As they looked so hard back into mine

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
The Bangles were one of the new generation of independent all-women bands that followed The Go-Go's in the early 1980s. Consisting of Susanna Hoffs (guitar, vocals), Debbi Peterson (drums, vocals), sister Vicki Peterson (guitar, vocals,) and Annette Zilinskas, who was later replaced by Michael Steele, (bass, vocals). The band was formed in Los Angeles in 1981 as The Supersonic Bangs, later shortened to The Bangs. They were forced to change their name to the Bangles when a band from New Jersey, also named the Bangs, threatened to sue. The single 'Manic Monday', written by Prince launched their international career. After 3 successful albums ("All Over The Place", "Different Light" and "Everything"), The Bangles broke up.
Susanna Hoffs released two solo albums in the 90's (a third album remained unreleased). Vicki Peterson joined the Continental Drifters. Debbie Peterson had a short-lived career with Siobhan Maher as Kindred Spirit, while Michael Steele lived in semi-retirement in California.

The Bangles reconvened in 2000 and recorded a reunion album, released in 2003, on Koch Records called "Doll Revolution". By lucky coincidence(?) their single 'Eternal Flame' had since been covered by, and become a hit record for, Atomic Kitten which helped to rekindle interest in its original artist.

"Sweetheart of the Sun," The Bangles first album of original material since "Doll Revolution" was released September 27, 2011. The Anna Lee (Sweetheart Of The Sun) Songfacts states that the album was recorded in various home studios - those of Vicki Peterson and Susanna Hoffs as well as the Hollywood Hills home studio of singer-songwriter Matthew Sweet, who produced the record.
