Sometimes
Erasure · Acoustic Live [2006]
It's not the way you lead me
By the hand into the bedroom
It's not the way you throw your clothes
Upon the bathroom floor
Been thinking about you
I just couldn't wait to see
Fling my arms around you
As we fall in ecstacy
Ooh sometimes
The truth is harder than the pain inside yeah
Ooh sometimes
It's the broken heart that decides
It's not the way that you caress me
Toy with my affection
It's not my sense of emptiness
You fill with your desire
Climb in bed beside me
We can lock the world outside
Touch me, satisfy me
Warm your body next to mine
Ooh sometimes......
By the hand into the bedroom
It's not the way you throw your clothes
Upon the bathroom floor
Been thinking about you
I just couldn't wait to see
Fling my arms around you
As we fall in ecstacy
Ooh sometimes
The truth is harder than the pain inside yeah
Ooh sometimes
It's the broken heart that decides
It's not the way that you caress me
Toy with my affection
It's not my sense of emptiness
You fill with your desire
Climb in bed beside me
We can lock the world outside
Touch me, satisfy me
Warm your body next to mine
Ooh sometimes......
Sometimes - Erasure
Erasure's 'Sometimes' appears on their 2006 acoustic live album, offering a stripped-back reinterpretation of the band's signature synth-pop sound. Recorded during a live performance, the track highlights the group's ability to adapt their melodic hooks and vocal harmonies for an intimate setting. As part of their discography spanning the late 1980s through the 2000s, the song reflects the band's enduring appeal and their continued exploration of electronic and pop genres. The recording serves as a testament to their live capability, showcasing the emotional depth of their songwriting when performed without the full production of their studio albums.
