    American here. David Gedge is an unsung hero. This song is absolutely perfect.

    I realize that I have already commented on this song, but I'm going to do it again. An unimpeachable masterpiece. Deserves a billion views. And, by God, I shalln't rest until it has them.

    Every time a car drives past I think it's you
    Every time somebody laughs I think it's you
    You changed your number and my phonebook's such a mess
    But I can't bear to cross your name out yet
    Each time the doorbell rings it might be you
    Each letter the postman brings might be from you
    I made a fool of myself yet once again
    A boy who's been this cruel looks for others to share the blame
    Somebody told me you went to work down south
    As far away as you can from my big mouth
    I bumped into Jane and she told me to drop dead
    Oh she's not to blame, I know exactly what I said
    Every time a car drives past I think it's you
    Every time somebody laughs I think it's you
    Every time a car drives past I think it's you
    Every time somebody laughs I think it's you

    This song embodies the feeling of my first and only heartbreak. If only things could have been different, there's nothing like your first love, alas he said he never felt how I felt. I met my husband and love of my life soon after and I'm so thankful I'll never have to feel that kind of heartbreak again.

    About 1987 I've listened to John Peels music at BFBS and bought the album (vinyl)
    afterwards and later the George Best + CD too - still in my "favourite records" selection!

    Should be listed near the top of the annals of songs about "Unrequited Love ". Great Wedds song.

      Not sure its unrequited.....sounds like he had the girl and blew it.

  • @andreeopthof376

    Excellent B-Side from the best EP the Weddoes ever did: "Nobody's twisting your Arm" 12" from 1988. 4 Tracks, 4 Hits. My copy is totally played out, so often I put it on the record player in those days.
