Now, on to the fun stuff. Although I'm including this one in "Lyrics In Print," it's just as enjoyable to listen to these lyrics in the actual song. My wrapup is at the bottom.
"The Look Of Love" by ABC
When your girl has left you out on the pavement (goodbye)
Then your dreams fall apart at the seams
Your reason for livings your reason for leaving
Dont ask me what it means
Thats the look, thats the look
The look of love
If you judge a book by the cover,
Then you'd judge the look by the lover
I hope youll soon recover,
Me I go from one extreme to another
And though my friends just might ask me
They say martin maybe one day youll find true love
I say maybe, there must be a solution
To the one thing, the one thing, we cant find
Thats the look, thats the look
The look of love
Thats the look, thats the look
The look of love
Thats the look, thats the look
Sisters and brothers
Should help each other
Oh, oh, oh
Heavens above
hip hip hooray-ay
yippee ai yippee ai yay
Thats the look, thats the look
Be lucky in love
Look of love
My favorite part? "If you judge a book by the cover, Then you'd judge the look by the lover"
What?
I think there's a logic problem in there somewhere, but I'm too confused by the rest of the lyrics to actually break it down. If you haven't heard this song, it's possible that "Heavens above / hip hip hooray-ay / yippee ai yippee ai yay" is a little less funny when taken out of context...but not likely.
