It goes

We meet again, you offer your hand
(o try and end this slow)
10 long years and my favourite man
is that any way to say hello?
and you hold me
like you'll never let me go...

the chorus has heaps on 'if only if only if only' and I thought that was the title! but can't for the life of me find it.

Can you help me with the title and album.

Tks!

the name is ''cut here'' good song buy the rest of their music its all class bar maybe the top album but still listenable take it easy

Cut Here was released a single w/out a new album. You can buy it as a single or buy "Greatest Hits" which has the song on the first cd. If you don't have the Greatest Hits you should buy the double album with acoustic hits. There are hidden videos of more studio acoustic recordings.

THEN go buy The Top:)

here r the real lyrics.
it bugs me when ppl sing them wrong. anysong.
even bugs me when i sing things wrong.
so i must correct u.

"so we meet again!" and I offer my hand
All dry and english slow
And you look at me and I understand
Yeah it's a look I used to know
"three long years... and your favourite man...
Is that any way to say hello?"
And you hold me...
Like you'll never let me go

"oh c'mon and have a drink with me
Sit down and talk awhile... "
"oh I wish I could... and I will!
But now I just don't have the time... "
And over my shoulder as I walk away
I see you give that look goodbye...
I still see that look in your eye...

So dizzy mr busy - too much rush to talk to billy
All the silly frilly things have to first get done
In a minute - sometime soon - maybe next time - make it june
Until later... doesn't always come

It's so hard to think "it ends sometime
And this could be the last
I should really hear you sing again
And I should really watch you dance"
Because it's hard to think
"I'll never get another chance to hold you...
To hold you... "

But chilly mr dilly - too much rush to talk to billy
All the tizzy fizzy idiot things must get done
In a second - just hang on - all in good time - won't be long
Until later...

I should've stopped to think - I should've made the time
I could've had that drink - I could've talked awhile
I would've done it right - I would've moved us on
But I didn''t - now it''s all too late it's over... over...
And you're gone...

I miss you I miss you I miss you I miss you
I miss you I miss you so much

But how many times can I walk away
And wish "if only... "
How many times can I talk this way
And wish "if only... "
Keep on making the same mistake
Keep on aching the same heartbreak

I wish "if only... "
But "if only... "
Is a wish too late...

The proof that it's one of The Cure's best song because it stands the test of time!

robert, greatest hits suck!

if your going to market your albums here on this board "robert"
u should try and sell all of them not just the greatest hits and the top
that way u make more money!
you need to watch suzie orman.
gosh.
and there has to be a more productive cost effective way to market your albums.
dang.

Thanks so much for the responses, I have just downloaded it.

Thanks also for the words!! Its as beautiful and poignant as I remember.

it was written about... um, bill mcKenzie (of the associates)(a stylish 80's dance band). i think he commited suicide by some horrible means like, hanging himself. and rsx regretted blowing him off during their last encounter.

well, they would have made a gorgeous couple.

Siouxsie wrote a song about him too.

"so we meet again!" and I offer my hand
And you know tht im a ho...
And you look at me and I understand
Yeah it's a look I used to know
"three long nights... and your favourite man...
Is that any way to say hello?"
And you pay me...
Like you'll never let me go
