Hall & Oates

I've carried my thoughts for quite a time
It's so hard for me to keep them
And if I put them down into this book
It might be easier to sleep then

There's a lot of tunes that'll never be sung
Because the faith and rules have changes
Now I'm singing one last song
In honor of a lady who could turn my head around

And I'm thinking about her
A woo, woah, I'm thinking about her
I'm thinking about her, oh yeah

Well, Caroline came and then she went
We just couldn't get together
But then I tried a lot of different scenes
I couldn't find anything better

All my troubles made me think of a time
When I had a woman named Pauline
And now I'm singing one last song
In honor of a lady who could turn my head around

And I'm thinking about her
A woo, woah, I'm thinking about her
I'm thinking about her, oh yeah, okay

Rafine had a tender smiley face
Don't always make a lady
You can pull it all out of a makeup case
While your mans in the parlor waiting

I believe I found the perfect girl
But I didn't have the sense to keep her
And now I'm singing one last song
In honor of a lady who could turn my head around

And I'm thinking about her
A woo, woah, I'm thinking about her
I'm thinking about her, oh yeah
I'm thinking about her, oh yeah
I'm thinking about her

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.
