Rupert Holmes - Escape

19790921 ===== I was tired of my lady, we'd been together too long. Like a worn-out recording, of a favorite song. So while she lay there sleeping, I read the paper in bed. And in the personals column, there was this letter I read: "If you like Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain. If you're not into yoga, if you have half a brain. If you like making love at midnight, in the dunes of the cape. I'm the love that you've looked for, write to me, and escape." I didn't think about my lady, I know that sounds kind of mean. But me and my old lady, had fallen into the same old dull routine. So I wrote to the paper, took out a personal ad. And though I'm nobody's poet, I thought it wasn't half bad. "Yes, I like Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain. I'm not much into health food, I am into champagne. I've got to meet you by tomorrow noon, and cut through all this red tape. At a bar called O'Malley...

Chicago - Look Away

19880909 ===== When you called me up this morning, Told me 'bout the new love you found, I'm said "I'm happy for you, I'm really happy for you." Found someone else, I guess I won't be coming 'round. I guess it's over, baby; It's really over, baby, whoa... And from what you said I know you've gotten over me; It'll never be the way it used to be. So if it's gotta be this way, Don't worry, baby, I can take the news okay. [Chorus] But if you see me walking by, And the tears are in my eyes, Look away, baby, look away. If we meet on the streets someday, And I don't know what to say, Look away, baby, look away. Don't look at me; I don't want you to see me this way. When we both agreed as lovers, We were better off as friends, That's how it had to be, Yeah, that's how it had to be. I tell you I'm fine But sometimes I just pretend; Wish you were holding me, Wish you were still ho...
