Simply Red

Loving you just goes on
On and on, on and on
And on

Growing with you
Is pleasure for two
Raising my spirits
Hoping for you
And I do

And being with you
I see a side of my life
A chance to grow
In a way that I never knew
‘Cause baby it's you
Honey, it's you

Find a movie where there's no one
On and on, just having fun
On our own

22 different shows on
Don't care which one
Just as long as we're having fun
On and on and on

‘Cause being with you
I see a change in my life
A chance to grow
In a way that I never knew

‘Cause baby it's you
You you you, you you you, it's you
Honey it's you
Baby it's you
You you you, you you you, you you you
Honey it's you

Words & Music Mick Hucknall

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.
