Don't start collecting things
One kiss is never enough
Sweetheart, they're suspecting things
People will say we're in love
Don't sigh and gaze at me
Your sigh's so like mine
Your eyes shouldn't glow like mine
People will say we're in love
Don't praise my charm too much
Don't act so vain with me
Don't stand in the rain with me
People will say we're in love
Don't dance all night with me
Til the stars fade from above
They'll see it's alright with me
People will say we're in love
People will say we're in love

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.
