Out of Sight Out of Mind Lyrics


I remember your goodbye
And the late December sky seems so long ago
You were standing on the quay
And you blew a kiss to me, I was sad to goThe ship began to pull away
Then I heard a stranger say
It's sad to see true lovers part
'Cause sometimes lovers feel a change of heart
Out of sight and out of mindWell the stranger's words came true
And the prophecy went through
I knew it would change my world
'Cause when I called your home
A whispered conversation I overheardI asked you what was going on
You said that I'd been gone too long
And the rain that fell in West Berlin
Was nothing like the rain that fell within
Out of sight and out of mindOh, Regine, here am I so far away
Out of sight, out of mind
Love has gone but I will shine day after day

I will take what love I findSo I made some other plans
Took my life in these two hands
And I know I won't turn around
Though I often see your face
When I'm in a crowded placeIt doesn't get me down
I met a girl with smiling eyes
Full of love and worldly wise
She told me she knows what to do
To help me put the memories of you
Out of sight and out of mind[Unverified]

Internationally popular British funk-rock quartet fronted by Mark King and Mike Lindup, best known for their hits Lessons In Love, Something About You, The Sun Goes Down (Living It Up), Love Games and Hot Water. They were formed on the Isle of Wight.

Though their membership has fluctuated throughout the years, the original and perhaps best-known lineup consisted of Mark King aka "Thunderthumbs" (vocals & bass), Mike Lindup (vocals & keyboards) and brothers Boon Gould (guitar) and Phil Gould (drums). After the success of the Running in the Family album, the Gould brothers left the band, citing musical differences and nervous exhaustion. King and Lindup continued, picking up replacement artists in Gary Husband on drums and former Go West and Kate Bush guitarist Alan Murphy. Murphy sadly passed away after suffering from an AIDS related illness in October 1989. The band released their then swansong album, Forever Now, in 1994.

At the end of the 80s, Mark King was recognized as one of the best bass players in the world having pioneered the 'slap and pull' technique, treating the bass as a percussion instrument. His style and virtuosity still are hugely influential, considering he also sang while he played very difficult basslines.

Following the formal breakup of the band in the mid-90s King later performed with a new lineup under the Level 42 moniker, before he and Lindup reunited to record Retroglide in 2006.

As of 2012, King and Lindup are still touring with personnel of Pete Ray Biggin, Sean Freeman and Nathan King completing the current lineup.
