Suspicious Look In Your Eyes
(clarke / hicks / nash)
Youve got that suspicious look in your eyes
Youve got that suspicious look in your eyes
Somehow at times I read your mind
You just float in a cloud above me
Youve no control of what you say
And no faith in the things that I do
If I question you
Its not because Im prying
I give you my best
So why dont you start trying
We used to act and think alike
No regrets after things that wed done
Youre changing all your thoughts of me
Youve no right to put me down this way
I believe in you
So it seems worth trying
You sound so sincere
But when I look at you
Youve got that suspicious look in your eyes

Write On
(clarke / sylvester / hicks)
Write on, even though theres no one listening to your songs
Write on
Shine on, get it together, let your light break through
Shine on, baby, shine on
Write on, sitting on your own, waiting for the phone
Come on, come on, come on
Write on, for your fame and fortune will follow you, coming on strong
Coming on strong
Dont feel bad cos the radio aint playing em
It wont be long til youre going out and slayin em
Shine on
Youre not the first, you wont be the last
To feel the frustration of a musical fast
Write on, baby, write on
Sing your rock and roll with a touch of soul
Ballads with feeling, send your audience reeling
Rock on, rock on
Find a man with a van, a back up band
Wholl give you a hand on your one night stand

Little Thing Like Love
The Hollies
A Little Thing Like Love
(Clarke/Macaulay)
Track 10 on album 'Distant Light' june 1971
Took you from Dakota from the Black Hills to the plains
I brought you up a lady and the right way to behave
Turned my pockets inside-out and not a dime was saved
and now you're trying to decide whether to go or stay
Don't let a little thing like love keep on bringing you down, my babe
or ever change the plans you made
Don't let a little thing like tears keep on turning you 'round, my babe
You're old enough to change your ways
And if you're feeling all run down, you look for the brighter lights uptown
Don't let a little thing like me ever stand in your way
Took you on a fast train across the Rio Grande
a Mexicano wedding with a Tijuana band
You blew my whole life savings and all the gold I'd panned
So if you're trying to find a way to say your sweet goodbyes
chorus
You're old enough to change your ways

Come On Back
Been so long since I last saw you
Come on back, come on back
I'm just feelin' lost without you
Come on back, come on back
Because you never, you never, you never held me tight
You didn't, you didn't treat me right
Why don't you admit you love me
And come on back, come on back
Say you're always thinking of me
Come on back, come on back
Because you never, you never, you never held me tight
You didn't, you didn't treat me right
It's not so very hard (It's not so very hard)
To make me feel this way (to make me feel this way)
It's not so very hard (I just can't)
Can't find the words the words to say
Can't find the words the words to say
break
It's not so very hard (It's not so very hard)
To make me feel this way (to make me feel this way)

Sorry Suzanne
The Hollies
Sorry Suzanne
(Geoff Stephens/Tony Macauley)
Single release february 1969
I can't make it if you leave me
I'm sorry Suzanne believe me I was wrong
and I knew I was all along
forgive me
I still love you more than ever
I'm sorry Suzanne for ever hurting you
you know I never wanted to
I'm truly sorry Suzanne.
I could never ever justify
all the tears I've made you cry
but I do regret it, my Suzanne
You gotta believe me
I was looking round for someone new
what a foolish thing to do
all the time I knew it
heaven knows what made me do it girl

Daddy Dont Mind
(clarke / sylvester / hicks)
Sass e frass and joe d glow
Headin out to the picture show
Sweet innocence not yet 18
Daddy dont mind what daddy dont see
Heavy chevy soft top down
One arm driver, the other arm around
Switched on hi fi rocknroll
Gunnin the engine heading for the open road
Given strict instructions
Not to fall for no seductions
Daddy dont mind what daddy dont see
Joe had no such orders
Gonna try and cross the border
Daddy dont mind what daddy dont see
Sass makes the move she straightens her seams
Joe checks in the mirror he thinks hes james dean
He pulls on over says hes got a flat
Sass is no fool she knows where hes at
Chorus

Lucy
(sylvester / clarke / hicks)
Got a call from the doctor
He said hold on my friend
Youve gotta know what Im knowing
Please come right away
He said lucys been seeing me
And things just aint right
Youll have to hold things together
cos lucy aint much time
Now should I tell her or keep it inside
Making her happy by feeding her lines
How am I gonna tell the children
That mamas goin away
I couldnt love another woman
Oh lucy please stay
If Im gonna lose you
After all this time
Im gonna make life more beautiful
Im gonna make you make you feel fine
If we make tomorrow

Man With No Expression
There's a man I know with no expression no not none at all
Have you ever ridden horses through a rainstorm
or led a lion through a busy street bazaar
There are many things I'd like to turn you on to
but somehow I feel you're safer where you are
If you're looking for examples to refer to
take a look around yourself I'm sure you'll find
there are many things to make your life much brighter
and I'd bet there's many more inside your mind
There's a man I know with no expression no not none at all
There's a man I know with no expression no not none at all
But I've never seen this man laughing
and come to think of it I've never seen him cry
But I might by sitting hear him singing
By and by he'll stop and sigh
he'll feel a breeze and then begin to freeze
as he thinks goodbye
Have you ever ridden horses through a rainstorm
or led a lion through a busy street bazaar
There are many things I'd like to turn you on to

Maybe Its Dawn
(hymas / brown)
Out of the sky the rain comes driving down
Washing away the hills of darkest brown
Heading out through another country town
White lace curtains
Something certainly gets into me
Call it jealousy
And when Im so far away
Somewhere the light shines bright along the highway
Somewhere inside me
Somewhere above the night
And maybe youve gone your way
And Ill go my way
Somewhere inside me
Somewhere inside the night
Maybe its dawn
Out of my heart my love comes falling free
Healing the pain that burns you and me
Heading towards another warm country
Smiles are dancing shades entrancingly

Long Cool Woman
(clarke / cook / greenaway)
Saturday night i was downtown
Working for the fbi
Sitting in a nest of bad men
Whisky bottles piling high
Bootlegging boozer on the west side
Full of people who are doing wrong
Just about to call up the da man
When i heard this woman singing a song
A pair of 45's made me open my eyes
My temperature started to rise
She was a long cool woman in a black dress
Just a 5'9, beautiful tall
With just one look i was a bad mess
'cos that long cool woman had it all
I saw her headin' to the table
Well a tall walking big black cat
When charlie said i hope that you're able boy
Well i'm telling you she knows where it's at
Well suddenly we heard the sirens
