    Previously Unreleased Album. In the Fall of 1993, between contracts with Capitol and RCA, The Smithereens ventured into Crystal Sound Studios NYC to write and record a new album for their own label. The results of those one month marathon recording sessions is this album, unheard by the outside world until now, and appropriately titled “Lost Album”. The Smithereens’ take no prisoners sound, reflecting their Garden State roots, has resonated with fans worldwide over the course of 17 albums and 2500+ live shows. They've also inspired generations of musicians, including Kurt Cobain, who counted The Smithereens as a major influence. Founded in New Jersey in 1980, The Smithereens have been creating electrifying, original rock’n’roll for 41 years. Jim Babjak (guitar) Dennis Diken (drums) and Mike Mesaros (bass) grew up together in Carteret and lead singer, the late Pat DiNizio, hailed from Scotch Plains. The Smithereens’ fame escalated, they were in heavy rotation on MTV and appeared on The Tonight Show, Conan O'Brien, and Saturday Night Live.

lyrics

I been drinkin’ every night since you been gone
And I still run to you each time I hear the ringin’ of the phone
They say you always hurt the one you really love
And I fit the part

Now I can’t stand to live another day a world apart

Been thinkin’ about your face for far too long
And how I never knew just what to do or how to get along
They say you always hurt the one you really love
And I fit the part

And I can’t stand to live another day a world apart

I said that I would shelter you
This big bad old world
Now I find that you are gone
I have lost the girl
They say you always hurt the one you really love
And I fit the part

Now I can’t stand to live without your love a world apart

I said that I would shelter you
This whole big bad old world
Now I find that I’m alone
And I have lost the girl
They say you always hurt the one you really love
And I fit the part

Now I can’t stand to live another day love a world apart
A world apart
A world apart
