Robert Palmer

Songwriter: Robert Palmer

Producer: Tom Moulton

When you've run out
Of time for a feeling
You've gotten used to believing in

Love can run faster than you can

Waste no tears
Over what you are leaving
There's a new love about to begin

Love can run faster than you can

Fall for what replaces
The things you were leading to
Love can take a turn
When you least expect it to
Me and you, me and you oh oh

Love can run faster than you can
Love can run faster than you can

Take what you get
Till you get what you want
Don't settle for
What you know to be wrong
When you've run out of time
For a feeling
You've gotten used to believing in

Love can run faster than you can

Fall for what replaces
The things you were leading to
Love can take a turn
When you least expect it to
Me and you, me and you oh oh

Love can run faster than you can
Love can run faster than you can
Love can run faster than you can
Love can run faster than you can

Robert Allen Palmer (19 January 1949 – 26 September 2003) was an English singer-songwriter[1] and musician. He was known for his distinctive soulful voice, eclectic mix of musical styles on his albums, combining soul, jazz, rock, pop, reggae and blues and sartorial acumen. He found success both in his solo career and with the Power Station, and had Top 10 songs in both the UK and the US.

His iconic music videos directed by British fashion photographer Terence Donovan for the hits “Addicted to Love” and “Simply Irresistible” featured identically dressed dancing women with pale faces, dark eye makeup and bright red lipstick, which resembled the women in the art of Patrick Nagel, an artist popular in the 1980s. Palmer’s involvement in the music industry commenced in the 1960s, covered four decades and included a spell with Vinegar Joe.
