Simply Red

I've never seen you looking so lovely as you do tonight
I've never seen you shine so bright
Mmm-mmm-mmm

I've never seen so many men ask you if you wanted to dance
Looking for a little romance
Given half a chance
And I have never seen that dress you're waring
Or the highlights in your hair
They catch your eyes
I have been blinded

Lady in red
Is dancing with me (cheek to cheek)
Theres nobody here
Its just you and me
Its where I wanna be
And I hardly know this beauty by my side
I'll never forget the way you look tonight

I've never seen you looking so gorgeous as you did tonight
I've never seen you shine so bright
You were amazing

I've never seen so many people wanna be there by your side
And when you turn to me and smile
It took my breath away

I have never had such a feeling
Such a feeling of complete and utter love
As I do tonight

Lady in red
Is dancing with me cheek to cheek
Theres nobody here
Its just you and me
Its where I wanna be
And I hardly know this beauty by my side
I'll never forget the way you look tonight
I never will forget the way you look tonight

Lady in red
Lady in red
Lady in red
My lady in red
I love you

Simply Red is a British soul and pop band. The first incarnation of the band was a punk group called The Frantic Elevators, whose seven-year run produced limited releases on local labels and ended in 1984 upon critical acclaim for their final single, “Holding Back the Years”.

By early 1985, Mick Hucknall and manager Elliot Rashman had assembled a band of local session musicians and begun to attract record company attention. The group adopted the name “Red” (after Hucknall’s nickname, denoting his hair colour) but then Mick decided it would sound better with the addition of the word ‘Simply.’

Since the mid 1980s, the band has sold more than 50 million albums.
