Stereophonics formed in 1992 and was originally known as "Tragic Love Company," taking one word from each member's favourite band. The band first consisted of Kelly Jones (vocals/guitar and songwriter), Richard Jones (bass), and Stuart Cable (drums). Cable was fired by the other two members of the band in September 2003, and the band replaced him on the road with the former drummer for The Black Crowes, Steve Gorman. After a decade's worth of studio albums (4 number 1's) the band scored its first number 1 single with Dakota, the first single of their fifth album . The recording of this album demanded the inclusion of a new drummer, Argentinian-Venezuelan Javier Weyler.

Lolita Lyrics

Stereophonics

Oh I stepped off the train at dawn
Walked along an open road
To find you
Oh you made beds at the gold motel
Sold junk at the carousel
To bind you

Lo... Lolita
You make my wheel set me free
Won't you come home with me?
Lo... Lolita
You make my wheel set me free
Won't you come home with me?

Oh we used to meet at the waterfall
Pink heather on the falling wall
Nothing to prove
Oh drank beer from a stolen can
Smoke cigarettes when we can
Because we like to

Lo... Lolita
You make my wheel set me free
Won't you come home with me?
Lo... Lolita
You make my wheel set me free
Won't you come home with me?

Memories tangled up the spokes that
Make my wheel
Make my wheel
Oh everything has gone wrong
I left you at the gold motel
Selling junk at the carousel
That bound you down
Can't find you now

Lo... Lolita
You make my wheel set me free
Won't you come home with me?
Lo... Lolita
You make my wheel set me free
Won't you come home with me?
Lo... Lolita
You make my wheel set me free
Won't you come home with me?
Lo... Lolita
You make my wheel set me free
