Chris Rea "Fool If You Think Is Over" from the album "Whatever Happened To Benny Santini" , 1978.
Lyrics:
Dyin' flame, you're free again Who could love, do that to you All dressed in black, he won't be comin' back Look, save your tears Got years and years The pains of seventeen's Unreal they're only dreams Save your cryin' for the day
Fool if you think it's over 'Cause you said goodbye Fool if you think it's over I'll tell you why New born eyes always cry with pain At the first look at the mornin' sun Fool if you think it's over It's just begun
Miss Teenage Dream, such a tragic scene He knocked your crown and ran away First wound of pride, and how you cried and cried But save your tears, got years and years
Fool if you think it's over 'Cause you said goodbye Fool if you think it's over I'll tell you why...
(Fool if you think it's over) (Fool if you think it's over)
I'll buy you first good wine We'll have a real good time Save your cryin' for the day That may not come But anyone who had to pay Would laugh at you and say
Fool if you think it's over 'Cause you said goodbye Fool if you think it's over I'll tell you why New born eyes always cry with pain At the first...
こんばんは。アルバム「Sharing Your Love」からシングルカットされUS #84、US R&B #16。前作までとバンドメンバーが入れ替わった第一弾です。Mauro Malavasiらイタリア人プロデューサーが前面に出たアルバムとなりました♪ やはり前アルバムからの「Paradise」のインパクトが強すぎたかな・・・。いい雰囲気なんだけど♪♪
From the same titled album "Sharing your love" 1982
The second and final album that featured lead vocalist James Robinson. Change continued scoring hits with "The Very Best in You," while the up-tempo tunes clicked in the clubs and the slow songs got urban contemporary airplay. The group had toured successfully in 1981 and that momentum continued into 1982
Producers were Mauro Malavasi David Romani & Jacques Fred Petrus
