This is Tuesday Throwback, a blast-from-the-past type of post entry that I’m going to make every Tuesday (obviously!), streaming you a hit from the best eras of music, the 1980s and 1990s! (Yeah, you 60s and 70s purists may leave now.)

For the very first song spotlighted on Tuesday Throwback, let’s go back to 1993, when a UK duo called Go West logged in an upbeat pop song that exploded across both sides of the Atlantic, peaking at #13 on the UK charts and #14 on the US charts. The track’s name was Faithful, and it was one of my favorite singles from 1993.

Lyrics to Go West’s Faithful, as well as ways to take a trip down Memory Lane and make a request for Tuesday Throwback, after the jump.

FAITHFUL
Go West

Don’t cry baby
Kiss me and say farewell
Nothing’s going to break the spell
And if you’re thinking time will tell
I want you to know..

Every minute of every single day
Even when I’m miles away
I’ll keep the promises I made
I want you to know..

I will be faithful to my lover’s prayer
Faithful - and I don’t care
If the world around us gives up on love
I will make you see
You can count on me
I will be faithful -
Faithful to my lover’s prayer
To my lover’s prayer

Listen baby
You can lean on me
Though we sail on stormy seas
Nothing good comes easily
But I won’t let you down..

I will be faithful to my lover’s prayer
Faithful - and I don’t care
If the world around us gives up on love
I will make you see
You can count on me
I will be faithful -
Faithful to my lover’s prayer

Baby you can lean on me
You can lean on me
Baby you can lean on me
You can lean on me
Baby you can lean on me
You can lean on me
Baby you can lean on me
You can lean on me..

Trust me baby this is not goodbye
There’s no need for you to cry
What we’ve got’s too strong
To be denied..

I will be faithful to my lover’s prayer
Faithful - and I don’t care
If the world around us gives up on love
I will make you see
You can count on me
I will be faithful to my lover’s prayer
Faithful to the dream we share
If the world around us gives up on love
I will make you see
You can count on me
I will be faithful
Faithful to my lover’s prayer
Faithful to the dream we share
