The Smiths - Hand in Glove

Nancy's been wanting to post something by Bobby Vee, I've been dying to post something by the Smiths. I decided for hand in glove : the lyrics seem less vague and slightly more cheesy than the others, even though I wouldn't call the song cheesy.  
Also, it has a line that states : everything depends upon how near you stand to me.
It was the Smiths' first single, released in 1983.

"If you bought hand in glove, why not buy it again?"

oh, Morrissey...








Hand in glove
The sun shines out of our behinds
No, it's not like any other love
This one is different - because it's us

Hand in glove
We can go wherever we please
And everything depends upon
How near you stand to me

And if the people stare
Then the people stare
Oh, I really don't know and I really don't care

Kiss My Shades

Hand in glove
The Good People laugh
Yes, we may be hidden by rags
But we've something they'll never have

Hand in glove
The sun shines out of our behinds
Yes, we may be hidden by rags
But we've something they'll never have
And if the people stare
Then the people stare
Oh, I really don't know and I really don't care

Kiss My Shades

So, hand in glove I stake my claim
I'll fight to the last breath
If they dare touch a hair on your head
I'll fight to the last breath

For the Good Life is out there somewhere
So stay on my arm, you little charmer

But I know my luck too well
Yes, I know my luck too well
And I'll probably never see you again
I'll probably never see you again
I'll probably never see you again
