TAMARA
(Guy Thomas & Steve Wood) 1986
STEVE & BETH WOOD: B.G. vocals, STEVE WOOD: Synths & Drum Programming
TOLLAK OLLESTAD: Harmonica

I poured the last of the coffee down into my cup
Strolled out into the rain and turned my collar up
I hailed a taxi down I was almost on my way
When somethin' made me turn around
Nearly stopped my heart I'd say

And there she was smiling
On that grey day
Down on Riverfront Street
Callin' out my name
She started runnin' toward me
Lookin' so alive
So good seein' her again
After all this time
And I said "Where you been Tamara"
Holding her I said
"Oh, where you been Tamara"
She said "I've been livin' uptown
And I'm married now
She saw a little tear in my eye
And I said "Hey girl, I'm alright"

So I get into the taxi
And I take it to work
I fumble through my wallet
To find that picture of her
I'll never forget that day
When she said "It's for the best
If we go our seperate ways
And give our poor hearts a rest...."

Ohhhh Tamara
"Ohhh, where you been Tamara?"
You see I've been holdin' on
To the love we had
Maybe I know that you're gone
But I still want you back
I want you back
I poured the last of the coffee down into my cup
And I strolled out into the rain
And turned my collar up

  • And I won't wonder
    If we made the right choice
    And I won't turn around
    When I think I hear your voice

    Oh Tamara
    "Oh, where you been Tamara?"
    You see I've been holdin' on
    To the love we had
    Maybe I know that you're gone
    But maybe I want you back
    Tamara,
    Ohhh where you been Tamara
    ohhh Tamara ohhhh Tamara........
