I should have heard you talkin'
Now I'm a dead man walking
I should have paid more mind
To the little things, the little things

Why is love so complicated
Maybe that's the we made it
Just tell me you won't go
Say it isn't so
Like on the radio
And if I could I'd write that song for you

If a song could make you cry
If a song could make you say goodbye
Could it change you mind
If a song could make you stay

It's a backward chain reaction
It's a lack of satisfaction
That makes our love breakdown
To the little things, the little things

Gone 180 degrees
Come back to me
Just tell me you won't go
Say it isn't so
Like on the radio
And if I could I'd write that song for you

If a song could make you cry
If a song could make you say goodbye
Could it change you mind
If a song could make you stay

If a song could break you down
Then a song could turn our love around
Can you hear that sound
If a song can make you stay

If a song could make you cry
If a song could make you say goodbye
Could it change you mind
If a song could make you stay

If a song could break you down
Then a song could turn our love around
Can you hear that sound
If a song can make you stay

Hall & Oates

Hall & Oates released the first of their 18 albums in 1972 on Atlantic Records. They would go on to sell 13 million albums and 6 million singles primarily during the 70’s and 80’s when they recorded their most prolific and profound music. They blended rock, jazz, soul, and pop create a genre they titled rock and soul.

While their technical musicianship, innovative songwriting styles, and popular live performances were praised, they also had a fruitful partnership with their manager Tommy Mottola, who was helped Hall & Oates break into music videos before they were popular and made profitable financial deals by helping them get on the ground level of and corporate sponsorship of tours. Hall & Oates were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2014.
