HEAD OVER HEALS IN
LOVE
written
by Chris Norman and Pete Spencer
You make
me a stranger
that's what time can do
baby you mean ev'rything to me
darling there's no danger
for all that we've been through
that anyone could love you more than me.
I've got news for you babe
all the things you do babe
make me think of how it used to be.
And it looks like I'm falling all over again
head over heals in love with you.
Yes it looks like I'm falling all over again
head over heals in love with you.
Will I get through to you babe
I love ev'rything you do babe,
the same old feeling this time's feeling new.
And it looks like I'm falling all over again
head over heals in love with you.
Yes it looks like I'm falling all over again
head over heals in love with you.
In love with you, in love with you.
This song,
written by former Smokie members, Chris Norman and Pete
Spencer, entered the British charts on 9 June 1979,
reached number 31 and stayed around for 6 weeks. It is a
rare example of a footballer charting in the UK with a
non-footballing record. Not that this makes it any
good...
The
composers, Norman and Spencer went on to write 'This Time
(We'll Get it Right)', which was the Official England
World Cup Squad in 1982. The song did a good deal better
than the football team as it reached number 2 in the
charts.

You are

been on the odd Liverpool and England record, but I
don't have line-ups for these songs.
