Альбом Simply Red

Words and music Mick Hucknall

Being one of those grains of sand
I get blown all around the world
And what I make of it
Oh I don't know
What's the meaning of it
Oh I don't know

I've been around so many times
That the worlds turning in my mind
What do I think of it
Oh it's so so

What more can you be than the things they say you've been

Say you love me all around the world
Stay and hug me all around the world
Be yours a boy or be mine a girl
Just say you love me
Just say you love me

I never ever realised
It's so easy to make you cry
But did I break a bit
Oh I hope no
Have you forgot about it
Oh I hope so

But you never ever wonder why
In every single pair of eyes
There is a hunger in it
Or it's soul dies

What more can you be than the things they say you've been

Say you love me all around the world
Stay and hug me all around the world
Be yours a boy or be mine a girl

Say you love me all around the world
Stay and hug me all around the world
Be yours a boy or be mine a girl
Just say you love me

Come on now darling, say you love me
Oh yeah, please please say you love me
Come on say you love me

Words & Music by Thom Bell & Linda Creed

My love
I'll never find the words, my love
To tell you how I feel, my love
Mere words could not explain
Precious love
You held my life within your hands
Created everything I am
Taught me how to live again

Only you
Cared when I needed a friend
Believed in me through thick and thin
This song is for you
Filled with gratitude and love

God bless you
You make me feel brand new
For God blessed me with you
You make me feel brand new
I sing this song 'cause you
Make me feel brand new

My love
Whenever I was insecure
You built me up and made me sure
You gave my pride back to me
Precious friend
With you I'll always have a friend
You're someone who I can depend
To walk a path that never ends

Without you
My life has no meaning or rhyme
Like notes to a song out of time
How can I repay
You for having faith in me

Words and music Mick Hucknall

Anyone who ever held you
Would tell you the way I'm feeling
Anyone who ever wanted you
Would try to tell you what I feel inside
The only thing I ever wanted
Was the feeling that you ain't faking
The only one you ever thought about
Wait a minute can't you see that I

I wanna fall from the stars
Straight into your arms
I, I feel you
I hope you comprehend

For the man who tried to hurt you
He's explaining the way I'm feeling
For all the jealousy I caused you
States the reason why I'm trying to hide
As for all the things you taught me
It sends my future into clearer dimensions
You'll never know how much you hurt me
Stay a minute can't you see that I

I wanna fall from the stars
Straight into your arms
I, I feel you
I hope you comprehend

Too many hearts are broken
A lover's promise never came with a maybe
So many words are left unspoken
The silent voices are driving me crazy
As for all the pain you caused me
Making up could never be your intention
You'll never know how much you hurt me
Stay can't you see that I

I wanna fall from the stars
Straight into your arms
I, I feel you
I hope you comprehend

Words Mick Hucknall Music Mick Hucknall & Lamont Dozier

This impossible power
A strength that I can't see
There's no way
That I can let you go
Why did I mistake sex
For another sense
Then wanted someone else
To try to tell you no

I think you understand
Oh that you've got it
I try hard but I can't
Oh do without it

I think you understand
That you've got it

This impossible power
Has broken into me
And stolen all the sense
That I had before
Why did I just take 
And never understand
The love you've given me
Could've learnt me more

I think you understand
Oh that you've got it
I try hard but I can't
Oh do without it

I think you understand
That you've got it

What made you think
That I'd be true to you
I needed to 
Prove it to myself
That I could let you go
What made you think that
I'd be a fool for you
You knew that I was lying
There was something
I was hiding

I think you understand
Oh that you've got it
Well I try hard but I can't
Oh do without it

Words and music Mick Hucknall

You've got that look again
The one I hoped I had when I was a lad
Your face is just beaming
Your smile got me boasting, my pulse roller- coastering
Any way the four winds that blow
They're gonna send me sailing home to you
Or I'll fly with the force of a rainbow
The dream of gold will be waiting in your eyes

You know I'd do most anything you want
Hey I, I try to give you everything you need
I can see that it gets to you
I don't believe in many things
But in you I do

Her faith is amazing
The pain that she goes through contained in
The hope for you
Your whole world has changed
The years spent before seem more cloudy
Than blue
In many ways your baby's controlling
When you haven't laid down for days
For the poor no time to be thinking
They're too busy finding ways

You know I'd do most anything you want
Hey I, I try to give you everything you need
I'll see that it gets to you
I don't believe in many things
But in you I do

You know I'd do most anything you want
Every day I, try to give you everything you
Need
We'll always be there for you
I don't believe in many things
But in you I do

Words and music Kenny Gamble & Leon Huff

If you don't know me by now
You will never never never know me

All the things
That we've been through
You should understand me
Like I understand you
Now girl I know the difference
Between right and wrong
I ain't gonna do nothing
To break up our happy home
Don't get so excited
When I come home
A little late at night
Cos we only act like children
When we argue fuss and fight

If you don't know me by now
You will never never never know me

We've all got our
Own funny moods
I've got mine,
Woman you've got yours too
Just trust in me like I trust in you
As long as we've been together
It should be so easy to do
Just get yourself together
Or we might as well say goodbye
What good is a love affair
When you can't see eye to eye

If you don't know me by now
You will never
Never never know me

Words & Music by Mick Hucknall

Loving you just goes on 
On and on, on and on
And on

Growing with you
Is pleasure for two
Raising my spirits
Hoping for you
And I do

And being with you 
I see a side of my life
A chance to grow 
In a way that I never knew
‘Cause baby it’s you
Honey, it’s you

Find a movie where there’s no one
On and on, just having fun
On our own

22 different shows on
Don’t care which one
Just as long as we’re having fun
On and on and on

‘Cause being with you
I see a change in my life
A chance to grow
In a way that I never knew

‘Cause baby it’s you
You you you, you you you, it’s you
Honey it’s you
Baby it’s you
You you you, you you you, you you you
Honey it’s you

We fol­low the river down into the stream
That's where my dream began
I left my wor­ries to the people who stare 
And dreamed without a care

(Chorus:)
That (yes) I'd always be beside you
To watch the day and night
And we listen to the sun­rise
And feel it's grow­ing light
And peace will come inside so quiet

Wherever we're going, I don't know
For a mil­lion years our love keeps grow­ing
The mys­tery deep­ens, day by day
But trust my love, and hear me say

(Repeat Chorus)

Peace will come inside so quiet

(Repeat Chorus)

And peace will come inside so quiet

Words Mick Hucknall Music Mick Hucknall & Neil Moss

Holding back the years
Thinking of the fear I've had so long
When somebody hears
Listen to the fear that's gone
Strangled by the wishes of pater
Hoping for the arms of mater
Get to me the sooner or later

Holding back the years
Chance for me to escape from all I've known
Holding back the tears
Cause nothing here has grown
I've wasted all my tears
Wasted all those years
And nothing had the chance to be good
Nothing ever could yeah

I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
So tight

I've wasted all my tears
Wasted all of those years
And nothing had the chance to be good
Cause nothing ever could oh yeah

I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
Holding, holding, holding

That's all I have today
It's all I have to say

Words by Hucknall
Music by Hucknall and Kirkham

You make me smile glow and shine
You make me glad to be alive
With love its easy to survive

The girl that I lost when I was blue
Has confirmed my heart grows stronger when there's you

'Cos you make me smile
You make me smile

True love won't find a better way
Fake love best plan its getaway
New love won't find a better place to stay

The woman that I love you always knew
My heart loves longer and stronger when there's you

'Cos you make me smile

The colour of my blood is truly justified
That was me, it was me, I never lied
My blood flows through you and my heart goes to you when you cried

It's no good to bluff or never wonder why
Who to be, who to be I've never tried
It's enough to know you and to love you baby is my pride
Loving you forever is a must and from now on my love will never be denied

'Cos you make me smile

We all need some­body who's proud and believes
Who hears what you need, who's found underneath

I have the love of a woman
I have the love of a woman

Gaze at me, look at me, listen to me now
As I show you what true love can do
Days are to praise what you've given me now
Every day feels some­thing new

I have the love of a woman
I have the love of a woman
It's you that I need
The truth is how good we can be

Cos I love a woman
So what could I need
I love you woman, yeah
That is all, it's in her I believe

I have the love of a woman
I have the love of a woman
It's you that I need
The beauty you give lives in me

Cos I love a woman
What could I need
I love you woman
What could I need
I love you woman
I love love
Love

I love that girl
I always will
I love that woman
I love you girl

Words and music Cole Porter

Ev'ry time we say goodbye I die a little
Ev'ry time we say goodbye I wonder why a little
Why the Gods above me who must be in the know
Think so little of me they allow you to go

When you're near there's such an air of spring about it
I can hear a lark somewhere waiting to sing about it
There's no love song finer
But how strange The change from major to minor
Ev'ry time we say goodbye.

When you're near there's such an air of spring about it
I can hear a lark somewhere waiting to sing about it
There's no love song finer
But how strange The change from major to minor
Ev'ry time we say goodbye.
