James Lyrics


I knew it'd turn out like this
I'm keeping one foot on the train
And I must be a masochist
To ever take up with you, James
It sounds familiar
That tone in your voice
You're gonna quit, James
You leave me no choice
Oh, James
Lettin' me down again, James
Well, it wasn't so long ago
I saw love in your eyes
And I think I should've known
But I'm feeling somewhat surprised
You think there's someone
Better for you
You think I'm too young
To see this thing through

Oh, James
Lettin' me down again, James
(Ooh, let me down)
Down, down
(Ooh, let me down)
Let me down, down, down, down
(Ooh, let me down)
Down, down
(Ooh, let me down)
Let me down, down, down, down
(Ooh, let me down)
Down
I knew it'd turn out like this
I'm keeping one foot out the door
And I don't think I should trust
That kinda love anymore
And now I realize
I had it all wrong
I'll only take this
Trip for so long
Oh James
Lettin' me down again, James
Guess it's goodbye again, James
Lettin' me down again
Lettin' me down again, James

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.
