Seal dives into painful territory on “Do You Ever”, the Trevor Horn-produced lead single off upcoming album “7” (out November 7). The music video goes for a minimalist approach, with Seal striking anguished poses and letting his emotions further show via a variety of colors splashed across the screen.
Lyrics:
She don’t get it he just let it slip away ‘Cause all they’ve been doing is loosing it night and day Breaking up is harder when you have a higher price to pay Now she takes a lover so that she can hide the pain
Do you ever forget my name Do you ever recall our love again Do you find every now and then You’ll be somewhere and your life is not the same
When your there with him I’m juts wondering Do you ever forget my name
All these changes he now faces reality One night lovers such a big space to fill But now and then he wonders if its only time they kill
Do you ever forget my name Do you ever recall our love again Do you find that every now and then You’ll be somewhere and your life is not the same
It’s gonna take some time yeah We got to know that what we did is real I away, this time going pick my life up again Sowing what we reap is real We’re here It’s real
I took your heart You took my care And now you talk Iike I’m not here I wish you were Once and for all I just hope he’s there to catch you if you fall
Thats all just like always
Do you ever forget my name
Do you ever forget my name Do you ever forget my name
In the middle of the masquerade there’s a clown to see Everybody’s laughing Wears his frown upside down So he can save the tears for when he cries himself to sleep
