Michael Sembello - Lay Back Lyrics






In this place, I hear desires
The secret of love that lights the fire
We can make it happen
It don't have to be a fantasy
The key to ourselves

There's no law for love to measure
What to call forbidden pleasure
Should we take the chance?
Will we make romance?
Reality, but first we must both come free

Lay back, back
Lay back
Lay back, back
Lay back
Lay back, back
Lay back

On this morning masquerade
I'm not sure of who to blame
Is it jealousy hypnotizing me to change my mind
To stop this feeling deep inside?

Lay back, back
Lay back
Lay back, back
Lay back
Lay back, back
Lay back

If you're afraid of what you might be feeling
Just kick back, relax and let it happen

Lay back, back
Lay back
Lay back, back
Lay back
Lay back, back
Lay back

Lay back, back
We were young, didn't know the rules at the time
Was it a passion or was it just a crime?
Lay back, back
We gotta lay back
Remember, oh no, whoa
Lay back, back
Whoo!

    The Radio Station www.showtimeradio.com.br
    Showtime Rádio is an internet radio service, devised to bring back the greatest hits from the 60’s and 70’s from all around the world, including Brazilian’s Popular Music (MPB). In those years, the best of the music scene was not only on the beaches, streets and mountains, but also in the studios. These decades became memorable for the seemingly endless summer nights in the northern hemisphere, when musicians got to know new drugs and, as a result of these experiences, new sound effects appeared.
    During this period, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Jimmy Hendrix, The Doors, The Who, The Beach Boys, Marvin Gaye and many others have released their records and redefined pop and rock music. In Brazil, we can’t forget about Gilberto Gil, Caetano and their friends.
    Rocked by the best music of all times, we have a strong and independent journalism. We bring news, opinions and comments of our journalists in order to help our public to understand the world where we live.
    Our radio service counts with the most innovative radio system, transmitted in a digital stereo system, with a streaming of 128kb, 24 hours a day, everyday.
    For us from Showtime Rádio, the endless summer nights have never ended!

My dad, Tim Lally, was doing this he had to play Jesus and the other guy is suppose to be Superman and so when they jumped in the air thE DIAPER CAME OFF. HE HAD NOTHING UNDERNEATH. He told me it was the most embarrassing moment in his life. Everyone was laughing on set. He is now 57 years old. He was in his 20's when he did this. Oh my lord...
