Better quality re-mastered upload of my 1986 song 'PERFECT'

PERFECT 1986 (Re-Mastered)

DANCE II (1st Draft) (© 1988)

MAYBE (New Recording) I wrote this song back in 1989.....
Maybe you... you will listen to me and hear my words, 
then again maybe you won't.
I only want to understand - 
do things right, not to demand... but you just lead me on - lead me astray.
I feel lonely and confused, 
I feel that I have been abused,
I don't know what to do, or what to say.

Well I don't know what to say now,
'cause I've never felt quite like this before.
These feelings, they won't go away now,
and my heart keeps yearning for more...
You make me feel so special,
Then again you make me feel sad.
These emotions just won't go away now,
This uncertainty is driving me mad !
- I only want to do what's best for you,
but you won't give me a chance.

Maybe you'll learn to love me,
Then again, I think maybe you won't -
Tell me how you feel from your heart...
I only want to understand - 
do things right, not to demand... 
but you just lead me on - lead me astray.
I feel lonely and confused, 
I feel that I have been abused,
I don't know what to do, or what to say.

So you say that it's all over, 
and you won't see him again,
Although I want to believe your words,
Will you really remain 'just good friends'
We walk alone, together , 
So near yet so far apart,
My emotions are growing stronger,
But I'm still waiting for yours to start.... 

Maybe you'll listen to me and hear my words, 
then again maybe you won't.
Tell me how you really feel from your heart.
I only want to understand - 
do things right, not to demand... 
but you just lead me on - lead me astray.
I feel lonely and confused, 
I feel that I have been abused,
I don't know what to do, or what to say.

I just don't know what I'm to do,
'cause my heart's been broken in two,
All I ever wanted was your love...
One minute you are there 
and then the next, you don't really care,
what am I supposed to think's going on ?
You say it all happened so fast, 
now I can see it just won't last, 
you make me feel that you've just had enough....

Music and Lyrics by Simon Harmony 1989

MAYBE (Ist Draft)

WHAT ? (Do I Do) (Ist Draft)

🎼 'I WANT ONE' was written in 1989 - This is a remix of my 3rd attempt at recording this song... I recorded a rough home demo in 1989, but wasn't good enough to use... I recorded a new version last month and lost ALL of the recording when transferring to mp3 ! - So this is 'I WANT ONE' (Retail Rip-off Remix)- Hope you like it......
📖
Hopes, Dreams, Status ? - Consumer !!

- Possessions seem to rule our lives, 
The media can hypnotise,
And all the things you never needed,
Now become your heart's desire...
- Do you need that latest gadget?
Tell me what your worth without it,
In a sense of false security,
Caught by those consumer lies...

CHORUS :
- We all have hopes, we all have dreams,
Visions of a better life - I WANT ONE !
- Everything you ever wanted,
Luxuries beyond your dreams - I WANT ONE !

- Mrs Jones has got a product,
That you think you've got to have,
To keep in time with modern trends,
Gain your status and keep friends...
- You work hard just to get in debt,
Have you got that new car yet?
Tell me what would you do to keep ahead?

( REPEAT CHORUS x4 )
- I want one and I want one now ! "possessions"

( INSTRUMENTAL )

- Possessions seem to rule our lives, 
The media can hypnotise,
And all the things you never needed,
Now become your heart's desire...
- Do you need that latest gadget?
Tell me what your worth without it,
In a sense of false security,
Caught by those consumer lies...
- Manipulate your spending power,
The will to buy in every hour,
Buy now and then pay September,
Mount your debts - but please remember to think ! 
Do you REALLY need that power ? "Yes"

- 'cause we all have hopes, we all have dreams,
Visions of a better life - I WANT ONE !
- Everything you ever wanted,
Luxuries beyond your dreams - I WANT ONE ! - I want one and I want one now !
