    Lyrics
    If I wait for just a second more,
    I know I'll forget what I came here for,
    My head was so full of things to say,
    But as I open my lips all my words slip away
    and anyway,
    I can't believe you want to turn the page,
    And move your life onto another stage,
    You can change the chapter you can change the book,
    But the story remains the same if you'd take a look.
    [Chorus]
    For the times we've had I don't want to be - a page in your diary babe,
    For the good, the bad I don't want to see - a page in your diary babe,
    For the happy, the sad - I don't want to be another page in your diary.
    Perhaps if I held you I could win again,
    I could take your hands we'd talk and maybe then -
    That look in your eyes I always recognise,
    Would tell me everything is gonna be fine,
    You're gonna be mine
    for a long time...
    [Chorus]
    For the times we've had I don't want to be - a page in your diary babe,
    For the good, the bad I don't want to see - a page in your diary babe,
    For the happy, the sad - I don't want to be another page in your diary.
    For the times we've had I don't want to be - a page in your diary babe,
    For the good, the bad I don't want to see - a page in your diary babe,
    For the happy, the sad - I don't want to be, just another page in your history.

    In communist Romania, a Yazoo tape was passed from one teen to another like a magical artifact. And it was magic: we felt that, despite of the Iron Curtain and Cold War and dictatorship, we were dancing in synch with the western youth. The parties were great, so was the music. We felt connected and part of a vibrant world. Music made us happy.

      @@msmacker13 If only that were true...Get your calculator out. I was 23 in May 1983 when this song was released, now I'm 61. 2 generations have passed since its release. The biggest difference is that in those days to have a song to play, we had to buy a record or a tape, at great expense (relative to costs now). CDs came out only 6 months before this song (1st release of a CD was on Oct 1, 1982), so they were not yet mainstream. The bottom line is that music was expensive back then. The only other way to hear it was on the radio, TV, or at a bar or disco. More than just years have passed, but 2 generations of technology (records to CDs to online music). In the whole of world history, the 40 years from the 1980's to 2020's is probably the biggest leap forward. Back in 1983 we had to go home to make a phone call, or use a public phone booth. If I had a choice and could go back to the 80s, I would. I don't know what I did with my time back then, but now most of it is spent in front of my computer, in the cyber world.

    Alison's voice is so amazing. Even now I am at awe of how amazing her voice was then and still one of the best. The music, beautiful voice, was a pure magic for great songs and this is one more of those incredible songs that brought happiness, but then sadness, breakups and moments when this song was bitter sweet, yet always beautiful to hear regardless.

      I fondly remember Sunday night spent with a radio cassette recorder, trying to time your favorites as they played according to the chart position. It was the only way for most of us. You couldn’t listen to anything you wanted and buying albums or latterly CD’s was a significant purchase. The 80’s must be one of the greatest era’s in pop. My son once said to me that it must have been great growing up in such a time where music was so good. I didnt look at it that way at the time but there certainly were some great bands playing then that are still appreciated today.

    I personally know Alison and her family. We lived in the same town, Basildon in Essex. She didn’t need a gimmicky Simon Cowell type show to portray her talents. In fact, electronic music wasn’t the path she ever intended to take. Unlike Adele, she built her career on just being a beautiful woman with a beautiful voice, a young girl working in a local factory whose voice was and still is mesmerising. Started her singing career busking in Basildon town square. She happened to be in the same school as Vince Clark which is how that show got on the road. They were mates, as were all the Depeche mode members. Vince Clarke, in my opinion, would not have had anywhere near the success he has achieved without her. He chose Andy Bell as a replacement to form Erasure. Listen to the similarities in their voices. Coincidence? What do you think?
