Dance
Not difficult to choose my favourite track from Gary's next album, Dance. Not because there are few good tracks to choose from - they're all brilliant - but because "Cry," The Clock Said stands out as being not only the best track on Dance, but one of the greatest Numan songs ever! Anyone in any doubt about Gary Numan's genius as a songwriter should listen to this. I must have listened to this song hundreds of times and it still gives me goosebumps.
Enjoy.
"Cry," The Clock Said
Why cry now?
It's over
Feelings change
How are you?
How am I?
"Cry," the clock said
I know little of romance
And these little tract houses
I know even less of you
And if you should ever think of me
Maybe as a game you lost
Well someone I know lost the whole damn world
No more this talk of they're out to get me
Just slide out of Sydney and I can never go back
How could I be surprised?
How could I even believe?
"Cry, " the clock said
I'll forget who you are
I'll forget one of these days
"Cry," the clock said
