FROM THE ARCHIVE 348 -1984-

Natali from the 1984 I Am What I Am album. For a previous post CLICK HERE

Lyrics:

I saw the danger the day we met her
No passing stranger who could forget her
Their glance was fleeting
But told a story
And that chance meeting
Meant heartaches for me

Natalie, Natalie
You are young
You are free
You don’t love him
And it could never be
He is all I live for
Please send him back to me

I’ll understand him
I know his feelings
He’s only human
He thinks he loves you
I tried to hate you
And wish you bad things
O god forgive me
And love her sad thing

Natalie, Natalie
You are young
You are free
You don’t love him
And it could never be
He is all I live for
Please send him back to me

Natalie, Natalie
You are young
You are free
You don’t love him
And it could never be
He is all I live for
Send him back to me…..

One of The Dame’s best songs – and the best recorded and one of the best live versions of it!

Does anybody know if this album is still available, perhaps under another title? I’ve been looking for it for ages but can’t seem to find it anywhere. Thanks.
