Someone told someone, someone told you
But they wouldn't hurt you - not much
Since everyone tells the story
With his own little personal touch

Do nothing till you hear from me
Pay no attention to what's said
Why people tear the seam of anyone's dreams
Is over my head

Do nothing till you hear from me
At least consider our romance
If you should take the word of
Others you've heard
I haven't a chance

True, I've been seen with someone new
But does that mean that I've been untrue?
Though we're apart, these words in my heart
Reveal how I feel about you

Some kiss may cloud my memory
And other arms may hold a thrill
But just do nothing till you hear it from me
And you never will!

True, I've been seen with someone new
But does that mean that I've been untrue?
Though we're apart, these words in my heart
Reveal how I feel about you

Some kiss may cloud my memory
And other arms may hold a thrill
But just do nothing till you hear it from me
And you never will!

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.
