[Verse 1]
I remember when I used to be the jealous kind
I got over it, now you're taking over my old line

[Chorus]
You're caring too much about what I say (Your imagination)
You're wondering too much about what I do (Your imagination)
And baby, your imagination now (Your imagination)
Imagination's got the best of you (Your imagination)

[Verse 2]
I ain't doin' nothing that you could really say was wrong
Just one oversight and no, that didn't last too long

[Chorus]
You're caring too much about what I say (Your imagination)
You're wondering too much about what I do (Your imagination)
And baby, your imagination now (Your imagination)
Imagination's got the best of you (Your imagination)

[Bridge]
I don't know what you're looking for, woah
What's this thing all about "true blue", oh yeah
You know I ain't no danger boy
'Cause you're the one I like to touch, touch you
You, you, you

[Saxo Solo]

[Verse 3]
Yeah, when the mood is right
Change the light and the moment's gone
You better turn around, 'cause the light doesn't last too long

[Chorus]
You see, you're caring too much about what I say (Your imagination)
You're wondering too much about what I do (Your imagination)
And baby, your imagination now (Your imagination)
Imagination's got the best of you (Your imagination)

[Outro]
Your imagination (Use your imagination)
Oh, your imagination (Use your imagination)
Oh baby, your imagination (Use your imagination)
Oh baby, your imagination (Use your imagination)
Baby, baby, your imagination (Use your imagination)
Baby, baby, your imagination (Use your imagination)
Oh baby, oh baby
Your imagination
Your imagination

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.
