Yazoo ----- Nobody's Diary

40 years ago (9 May 1983), Yazoo released the single 'Nobody's Diary' with 'State Farm' as the B-side.

In 1985, the 12" single version was described by The Absolute Sound as "[typifying] all the neat features of 12 inch 45 rpm. The sound is glorious. [The song] is quite wonderful. The musical textures are fascinating. The sound is open, and the soundstage is huge. The bass is tight." In CMJ's 1999 New Music Report (coinciding with the release of the group's greatest hits compilation), "Nobody's Diary" was described as "[a] poignant offering, rife with emotional fervor that remains fresh and undated despite the limiting musical technology of the time."

If I wait for just a second more
I know, I'll forget what I came here for
My head was so full of things to say
But as I open my lips all my words slip away

And anyway, I can't believe you want to turn the page
And move your life onto another stage
You can change the chapter, you can change the book
But the story remains the same if you'd take a look

For the times we've had I don't want to be
A page in your diary, babe
For the good, the bad I don't want to see
A page in your diary, babe
For the happy, the sad I don't want to be
Another page in your diary

Perhaps if I held you I could win again
I could take your hands we'd talk and maybe then
That look in your eyes, I always recognize
Would tell me everything is gonna be fine
You're gonna be mine for a long time

For the times we've had I don't want to be
A page in your diary, babe
For the good, the bad I don't want to see
A page in your diary, babe
For the happy, the sad I don't want to be
Another page in your diary

For the times we've had I don't want to be
A page in your diary, babe
For the good, the bad I don't want to be
A page in your diary, babe
For the happy, the sad I don't want to be
Just another page in your history
