It's all over now He knew from the start It was in the way She walked and the way she moved It's all over now She told him somehow It was in the way She softly turned her head It's all over now And now she's free Free to find another love It's all over now And when she's alone She remembers her first love From so long ago It's all over now How she thinks of him And of what it would be like If he were to call It's all over now And now she's free Free to find another love

I want to hold you But every time I try Something keeps you Out of reach I want to love you But every time I try Something keeps love away And I can feel it So love me right now Though it won't last Girl don't make me try 'Cause I'll lose you forever Every time Every time And every time I try To put our love out like a fire You keep me in your reach And every time I try To throw away my desire You hold me so close And I can feel it So love me right now Though it won't last Girl don't make me try 'Cause I'll lose you forever Every time Every time

Walked away Released from all my crimes Walked away Released from all my crimes But I could never hide What I kept inside Walked away Released from all my sins Walked away Released from all my sins But the cruelest thing Was all my suffering When I held you that night I knew it felt so right I knew it felt so right Walked away Released from all my crimes Walked away Released from all my crimes But I could never hide What I kept inside

The 29 June 1999 Paris, France show occurred about half-way through the first leg of our European tour supporting our sophomore record, She Haunts My Dreams. Contractural problems had kept us from recording since the 1995 debut of our Blue Moods album, and we were eager to get back on the road. The band included myself and long time Spain guitarist Merlo Podlewski, L.A. multi-instrumentalist Shon Sullivan, drummer Will Hughes (formerly a member of the star-studded L.A ensemble Low & Sweet Orchestra), and Sweden’s guitar legend Björn Olsson (Soundtrack Of Our Lives). For another recording of a gig with this line-up, with much better sound quality, see spaintheband.bandcamp.com/album/spain-roskilde-festival-4-july-1999.

This tour holds lots of memories for me. I didn’t keep a tour diary (the way I do now), but I did find a copy of the itinerary, the page from which is printed here. Likewise, I couldn’t find any photos from this show, but I did dig up some photos and an interview that were published in France that month to promote She Haunts My Dreams and this gig. All are included here.
