    When I think about your lovin'
    The Sunday evenings, the fun we used to share
    Looking through the memories in my mind
    Since I've laughed and cried and thought it over
    Now I realize that it's never over, it's only set aside
    Oh it's you, sweet baby
    I will never be free from your embrace, sweet baby
    Only hoping it's not too late to try again
    It's you, sweet baby
    Ever lost and captured by your smile, sweet baby
    I will always be right there by your side
    Right by your side
    Lying here alone I'm dreaming
    My mind keeps wandering, my thoughts are only you
    Looking through the memories in my mind
    How could love so real have turned so empty
    I just keep wondering why
    Will I ever find the love we shared together, you and I
    Girl it's you, sweet baby
    Though we had such a long hard road to climb, sweet baby
    Only hoping it's not too late to try again
    It's you, sweet baby
    Won't you try belivin what i say, sweet baby
    I will always be right there by your side

    What a treat! I never even dreamed these two actually made a video for this song. The 70's music have the best feeling. The early 80's music is worth listening to for inspiration as well. Today's music is such a spiritual and mental let down. A majority of it is made by dysfunctional, for the dysfunctional. But not at all made for everyone abroad the spectrum. Anyways. This song is timeless for the ears and for the soul.

      Come on naysayers, the music is out there we just have to look for it, no different than back then. We're older now, we don't listen to pop radio (and because we're coming out of the swirl generation) into Reagan's administration 80's Duran Duran, Rick Astley but Elvis Costello made some of his best stuff, Funkadelic some of their best stuff, music lovers find it. Look at Kamasi Washington's latest. Maybe I don't make the time to look like I did back then. Sorry, a beautiful, wonderful song.

      "artitstic fakes, not artists have taken over"
      the most successful musical celebrities in our time are vapid popstars. talentless as most of them are, it is disingenuous to call them fakes
      they make no pretense of artistry. those who listen to them and their musical products do not care for such things. they arent fake because they make no claim to be real. the intended audience doesnt care otherwise

      The writting,production, arrangement, vocals musicianship of the 60s, 70s are so far superior to the shit that passes for music today, that its a joke.

    I was going into my senior year in high school that fall and I’m telling you, even youngsters knew good, quality entertainment such as Sir Duke, Stanley Clark, EWF, Lee Ritenour, Michael Franks~
    (there’s so many more I haven’t mentioned…I apologize not mentioning you)
    So it was a must that I own this album back in ‘81
    I listen to this song and all the things that were happening in my life come rushing in like a tidal wave! Nothing but nice, mellow vibes… the world has changed however. Music has changed as well. I digress.
    Happy am I to have witnessed better days…Mr Clarke, you’ve made part of my growing up a whole lot sweeter like the fruit from a blessed garden! Words just cannot capture the music of my heartbeat : thank you, so kindly!
    And Sir Duke, I just know you’re having the best time up in that great jazz festival in the sky!!
    Thank you!
    We love the both of you legends!!

    Released just after my 18th birthday, I went out and bought this LP --- and even at the time, I was thinking, "why am I buying this old people's album,' but the songs on the record were just phenomenal and the musicianship was just so delightful to the ear and to hear. Clarke on the upright bass and George on the 88s! But back in the 80s, seeing the video of the song was darn near next to impossible --- so LONG LIVE THE TUBE!
