Life's great, life's grand
Future, all planned
No more clouds in the sky
How am I ridin'? I'm ridin' high

Someone I love
Mad for my love
So long, Jonah, goodbye
How am I ridin'? I'm ridin' high

Floating on a starlit ceiling
Doting on the cards I'm dealing
Gloating, because I'm feeling so hap, happy, now
Slap, happy

So ring bells, beat gongs
Blow horns, sing songs
Our love never will die
How am I ridin'? I'm ridin' high

So ring bells, beat gongs
Blow horns, sing songs
Our love never will die
How am I ridin'? I'm ridin' high

How am I ridin'?
How am I ridin'?
How am I ridin'?
I'm ridin' high

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.
