Information
Kristeen Young provides backing vocals on this song.
May, 2009 Michael Farrell via Indie 103.1 Radio played a version of the song he'd mixed and produced several years after the studio version had been released.
It was very different to that of the main release.
Archive coverage of the Broadcast can be found here
Michael Farrell, in discussion with Julie Hamill, described several versions of the song:
An initial demo.
The Swords version.
His own version at the time ("the version that I created is much closer to the alternate version.").
And the alternate mix ("Later, much later, years later").
He also suggested Boz Boorer tried a mix of the song too.
Lyrics
Sweetie-pie
I've fallen in love
And the joke is on me
And the sun's given up
I'm depending on you
To see I get safely to
The port where my heart is too lost to find
And we'll be there to meet you when it's your time
Sweetie-pie
I'm ending my life
Because I've fallen in love
And enough is enough
I'm depending on you
To see I get safely to
The port where my heart is too lost to find
And we'll be there to meet you when it's your time
Sweetie-pie
How I feel in my mind
And how I live in the world
They are oceans apart
I'm depending on you
To see I get safely to
The port where my heart is too lost to find
And we'll be there to meet you when it's your time
