Level 42 performing live in the Vredenburg in Utrecht, Holland on the 18th February 2009. Remember to subscribe to stay up to date with all new releases in the official channel.
Exactly 33 years ago, the love of my life died in a car accident. I'm now 57, and even though I've rebuilt my life since that fateful day, I can't help thinking of her when I hear that so beautiful, and so sad ballad, because it was played on the radio as I drove to the hospital in the early hours of a sunday morning to see my lost angel one last time.
This song makes me cry every time I hear it. There's one part where the harmonies are just so beautiful and so powerful. Also, the line "... As I walk into the lonely avenue, or afternoon..." stunning but heartbreaking!
Agreed the lyrics are powerful, written by the late 'Level 42 guitarist and lyricist Boon Gould, who tragically took his life on 30th April 2019 aged 64 after suffering bipolar/depression for many years. His lyrics deserve to be written down: It's Over I won't be here when you come home I'm sorry if you don't understand, forgive me if you can. But I can see another road, And I ain't coming back Don't look for me around this town, 'Cause I will be so far away, you'll never find me anywhere. And I won't take no souvenirs, No perfumed picture promises, Because it's over And I an't coming back. You gave me everything And now I'm breaking your heart. You know that I don't mean, To tear your world apart. I would never leave, If I thought you couldn't stand the pain. A letter in the hall is written on the wall, A letter with no words of love at all. Because it's over (because it's over), And I ain't coming back. And as I close the door, I know I'm breaking your heart. I should have loved you more, Instead I've torn your world apart. And as I walk into the lonely afternoon, I feel sad enough, I feel bad enough. And all the times, when you are lonely where you are, Please don't hate me then, I just could not pretend, oh no. Feel the tears I can feel the tears, Running through the years. Feel, feel the tears, I can feel the tears, Running through the years. Tears, feel the tears, I can feel the tears Running through the years. REPEAT. Written by Mark King, Roland 'Boon' Gould and Wally Badarou.
TWO dislikes...? For THIS song!!??? Bloody idiots!!! Amazing song, fantastic performance, love level 42 and have done for over 35 years. Still do... always will. Since leaving this comment 3 years ago, I've split up from my wife of nearly 25 years. This song now means more than it ever did...
As a 50 something year old male ,this is by far the best tune you guys ever made! Standard it just projects me back to the early 80s, when life was soooooo much easier 🙃
Mark King's voice is wonderful, but wow. . . I have such love for bass players who play their instrument as an instrument of melody. This song is a perfect example of that. King is definitely a master of melody in every way. Absolutely swoon-worthy sound. Respect! 🙏
Yep, Mark's melody on the bass is amazing, but wat also gets me, is on the faster numbers, not only does he keep melody, but used his bass to also keep faith with the drums, in terms of tempo... STUNNING!!!
Level 42, undeniably hit the top. Everything is so true and touching filled with real feelings and higher class musicians. Mark seems to be so thrilled that his voice tells it all. I thank the Universe for this so amazing gift that came over me in this lonely night. Thanks Level 42.
I’m 50 this year followed them since I was in my twenties. Saw them in early 90s at Bradford St George’s hall absolute brilliant live and this song is so good
Great band great singer great bass player..i was in camphill reform prison in 19990 isle of whyte..marks dad was a prison officer dog handler at parkhurst prison next door..nice bloke who was proud of gis son and often spoke about him
Listened to Level 42 in the late eighties on my bike to school every day (on a walkman cassette player :-) ). Unbelievable that they are still performing today!
Many, many years have gone by since the 80's, but Level 42 is still a great band I love, and Mark's voice now is much more expressive and his appearence/presentation gets under your skin, now more than in the 80's ! Keep on doing, please ! Best regards from Vienna/Austria🇦🇹!!
Always a great song ,there’s an extended version that’s simply beautiful,❤Wien with love a wonderfull place to live,ciao from Italy,i have bene in Wien for many times in all the seasons,😍
A masterpiece. Fantastic melody, but the lyrics are what strike my heart every time - words by former Level 42 guitarist Boon Gould who tragically committed suicide on 30th April 2019 aged 64 after years of depression/bipolar. His beautiful music lives on.
uno de las agrupaciones musicales que dejo una gran huella en la ecena musical de los nostargicos y recordados años 80as, lever 42 favority group,,💫💫👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍
I listen to Level42 since the beginning, so this is my personal, most sentimental part of all their songs (altered) ❤ 🎶Years, feel the years🎶 🎶I can feel the years🎶 🎶Running through the tears🎶
My fav ever level 42 tune, the melodies are so sweet. Something about them when they are not playing ast and filling everything out on the bass. Plus lindups vocals and his Prophet 6 sounds amazing on the bridge
Just doesn't get better.. Well maybe Lying Still still has the edge for me. But two absolutely gorgeous ballads by the band. By far the most emotional and beloved songs by L42..
Listening this in living room on Dolby prologic 7.1 pioneer sound system. That’s a real felling of emotions, love, and being there. The real goosebumps! All time favorite songs.
I’m a 56 year old man and these lyrics make me cry ..

Hope you are okay
Mes pensées vont vers toi
L' amore è per sempre.
The best level 42 song! One of the best songs period.
Agree!!!

It's Over
I won't be here when you come home
I'm sorry if you don't understand, forgive me if you can.
But I can see another road,
And I ain't coming back
Don't look for me around this town,
'Cause I will be so far away, you'll never find me anywhere.
And I won't take no souvenirs,
No perfumed picture promises,
Because it's over
And I an't coming back.
You gave me everything
And now I'm breaking your heart.
You know that I don't mean,
To tear your world apart.
I would never leave,
If I thought you couldn't stand the pain.
A letter in the hall is written on the wall,
A letter with no words of love at all.

And all the times, when you are lonely where you are,
Please don't hate me then,
I just could not pretend, oh no.
Feel the tears
I can feel the tears,
Running through the years.
Feel, feel the tears,
I can feel the tears,
Running through the years.
Tears, feel the tears, I can feel the tears
Running through the years. REPEAT.

One of the Best songs from them i think . Priceless
Ture . The bass is awesome!
Yep, Mark's melody on the bass is amazing, but wat also gets me, is on the faster numbers, not only does he keep melody, but used his bass to also keep faith with the drums, in terms of tempo... STUNNING!!!
Darshan , total respect for that comment.
Melancholy is sweet and painful, thanks for this beautiful song
Gary's drumming on this song is absolutely perfect...the golden sound of a man who has refined a drum part down to its essence
Gary is the consumate musician's musician...equally adept on the keyboards...cat has played with some legends...
Agreed! Definitely a fantastic fit in for Phil.
Goosebumps every time I hear this, without fail. My all time favourite ballad by any band ever.
A vivo ficou muito top 🇧🇷🌹
this song is the most amazing break up track! And I'm taken by the musicality of it all... just beautiful! This one of my favorite Level 42 songs
Best song! Gives me chills. And meant so much when I was heart broken in the 80's.
I can feel the tears running through the years. Sublime track. Best ballad, that isn't a ballad, ever!
Of course its dark and they don't pan in on this WONDERFULsong!
It's so sad and beautiful at the same time!
I can listen to feel the tears running through the years for like another 20 minutes and not get tired
Bravo!!!!!! Magnífica banda, me encanta 👏👏👏
This song was always on my mind those lonely afternoons of my youth back in the 80s...
So simple, so deep, so sad ... my soul flies and flies, till the end of times ...❤️
