Hold me now; 'til the world turns away
Show me how here in this dream
We might always stay
We belong to each other
One embrace sealed our fate
Here in your arms, feeling the love
That we generate everytime we caress
Look around; -there's a will, there's a way
Dream while I ever so tenderly kiss your face
All the love passing between us
Hold me now; 'til the world turns away
Show me how here in this dream
We might always stay
To this love we surrender

Robert Palmer

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.
