Some are confused between love and sex
For there is a difference... oh yeah
Sex satisfies lust, lust won't change you
It just lies there.. yeah, yeah

You can pay someone for sex
You can't pay no one to love you
If true love can be bought...
I could never be rich enough

Chorus
Ah... Leave it alone
Don't bet that I'm ready to sell my soul
Ah... leave it alone...
Don't mean that I'm willing to make it alone
Am I missing the point
Ah... leave it alone

Verse II
Some love to lie, don't care with who
I think I'm indifferent... what about you...
Two halves are whole, no one is in control
Or more the wiser... yeah, yeah

Sex without love is lust
That's where we get confused
In love you give yourself...
Lust is just, someone gettin' used...

Chorus
Ah... Leave it alone...
Don't bet that I'm ready to sekll my soul
Ah... Leave it alone...
Don"t mean that I'm willing to make it alone
Am I missing the point
Ah... Leave it alone...

Alannah Myles

When Alannah Myles played the role of a young aspiring singer on an episode of The Kids Of Degrassi Street, it was more than just an act. Less than a decade later, the daughter of Canadian Hall Of Fame Broadcaster William Douglas Byles would be a Grammy and Juno Award-winning singer best known for her 1990 international hit “Black Velvet”.

Myles (who changed her last name from Byles as a teen) began writing songs at nine and was participating in Toronto’s Kiwanis Music Festival at twelve. While gigging solo at nineteen across southern Ontario, songwriter/musician Christopher Ward invited her to form a rock and blues cover band with him. During this time Ward became MuchMusic’s first VJ.

Ward spent seven years trying to get Myles signed. He produced a three song demo for her, and her entertainment lawyer Stephen Stohn came up with the idea of making a ‘video demo’ of Myles singing “Just One Kiss”. This finally attracted Warner Music Canada in 1987. The demo was passed along to Warner’s US affiliate labels and Atlantic Records also took interest.
