Best of Leo Sayer lyrics

Writers: Leo Sayer Albert Hammond

it's easy to love when I love someone like you
it's easy to feel when you feel the way I do
you know love don't come easy and love don't compare
but when love comes to you, you gotta make it last
one the day that I met you I knew it could be
so easy for you and so easy for me

it's easy to love when I love someone like you

In the morning light
Half awake and half asleep
Have you ever lain there thinking
Was it all in a dream?
But you reach out and she's there
Every moment everywhere
Have you ever been in love?

Have you ever felt how far a heart can fall?
Have you ever stayed up waiting for a telephone call?
Just to hear her say hello
Cos you miss each other so
Have you ever been in love?

I WAS TRAVELLIN’ DOWN THE ROAD
FEELIN’ HUNGRY AND COLD
I SAW A SIGN DOWN THE ROAD SAYIN’
FOOD AND DRINKS FOR EVERYONE
SO NATURALLY I THOUGHT
I WOULD TAKE ME A LOOK INSIDE
I SAW SO MUCH FOOD
THERE WAS WATER COMING FROM MY EYES

YEAH THERE WAS HAM AND THERE WAS TURKEY
THERE WAS CAVIAR
AND LONG TALL GLASSES
WITH WINE UP TO Y’ARE
AND SOMEBODY GRABBED ME
THREW ME OUT ON MY CHAIR

You, you are my reason to live
You make me shine with all the love that you give
And when I think of you
I keep drifting away
Little by little I love you more every day
I lay in bed but I just can't sleep
I close my eyes and you're all that I see
I can't belive that it's happening to me

Livin' in a fantasy
Ever since you came to me
Livin' in a fantasy
Drownin' in this luxury

he sees her at the same time every night
at the mexican discotheque
she gives him french kisses
he gives her french cigarettes
they sit at the same table every time
the lights are low
but their eyes shine
just digging the music from those sweet soul bands

she keeps him outta fights
holds on to his hand
he whispers slowly tonight's the night

standing here alone with you
wondering what it is that I'm supposed to do
and there you are with the love light in your eye
the bridges are burnt down
your arms are open wide
am I in too deep or should I swim to the shore
is this the real thing?
I don't know but I've never been here before
and I feel a thunder in my heart that I can't control
I feel a thunder in my heart

well everybody knows down ladbrook grove
you have to leap across the street
you can lose your life under a taxi cab
you gotta have eyes in your feet

you find a nice soft corner and you sit right down
take up your guitar and play
but then the law man comes says move along
so you move along all day

well I'm a one man band
nobody knows nor understands

imagine the space as it used to bethere were fields of cornthere were big oak treesbut a woman in a suit bulldozed it clearbuilt a concrete world full of crocodile tears
and we don't understandthat we all have a part in a government planit's a hard shotto be the people in the place that the world forgotin a paperback town

standing here alone with you
wondiring what it is that I'm supposed to do
and there you are with the love light in your eye
the bridges are burnt down
your arms are open wide
am I in too deep or should I swim to the shore
is this the real thing?
I don't know but I've never been here before

and I feel a thunder in my heart that I can't control

(Aaah)
(A-haa)
(Aaah)

You've got a cute way of talkin'
You've got the better of me
Just snap your fingers and I'm walkin'
Like a dog hangin' on your lead

I'm in a spin, you know
Shakin' on a string, you know

You make me feel like dancing
I wanna dance the night away
You make me feel like dancing
I'm gonna dance the night away
You make me feel like dancing
I feel like dancing
(Oooh)

Oh, Oh Oh, Oh, Oh Oh
You've got a cute way of talking
You've got the better of me
Just snap your fingers and I'm walking
Like a dog hanging on your leash

I'm in the spin you know
Shaking on a string you know

You make me feel like dancing
I wanna dance the night away
You make me feel like dancing
I gonna dance the night away
You make me feel like dancing
