Back here baby
Back in my arms girl
You ain't got no reason to act like a stranger to me
Back here baby
Things are changing for the better
We've just got to keep our hearts open to seige
You've been taking care of business
Sure I've been meeting lost of folk
Sure I ain't been spending as much time with you as you'd like me to be
But if you sit at home and worry
Bout where and with who I might be
Then you're bound to have some trouble
Coz you worry bout your jealous mind
Don't let it move ya, don't let it move ya, don't let it move you away from me
Baby, back in my arms girl
You ain't got no reason to act like a stranger to me
Back here baby
Things are changing for the better
We've got to keep our hearts
Open at sea
But lovin' ain't possessing
So it's bound to keep us guessing
Not to trust in each other to be doing all that we can do
So when I'm far away baby
Remember I love you
Let your heart make all the choices
Don't listen to those jealous voices
Of changes, stages make it stronger
Come on girl, we can see it through
Baby, back in my arms girl
You ain't got no reason to act like a stranger to me
Stranger to me
Back here in my arms
Back in my arms
You ain't got no reason to act like a stranger to me
Stranger to me
Just because we've been away from each other
You ain't got no reason to act like a stranger to me
Back in my arms girl
You ain't got no reason to act like a stranger to me
Stranger to me
Back here in my arms

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.
