The Look Of Love Lyrics
When your world is full of strange arrangements
And gravity won't pull you through
You know you're missing out on something
Well that something depends on you
All I'm saying
It takes a lot to love you
All I'm doing
You know it's true
All I mean now
There's one thing yes one thing that turns this gray sky to blue
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
When your girl has left you out on the pavement (goodbye)
Then your dreams fall apart at the seams
Your reason for living's your reason for leaving
Don't ask me what it means
Who got the look
I don't know the answer to that question
Where's the look
If I knew I would tell you
What's the look
Look for your information
Yes there's one thing, the one thing that still holds true
What's that
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
If you judge a book by the cover
Then you judge the look by the lover
I hope you'll soon recover
Me I go from one extreme to another
And all my friends just might ask me
They say, "Martin, maybe one day you'll find true love"
And I say, "Maybe there must be a solution to
The one thing, the one thing we can't find"
That's the look, that's the look
Sisters and brothers
That's the look, that's the look
Should help each other
That's the look, that's the look
Oh oh oh
Heavens above
That's the look, that's the look
Hip hip hooray ay
That's the look, that's the look
Yippie ai yippee aiay
That's the look, that's the look
Be lucky in love
Look of love
And gravity won't pull you through
You know you're missing out on something
Well that something depends on you
It takes a lot to love you
All I'm doing
You know it's true
All I mean now
There's one thing yes one thing that turns this gray sky to blue
The look of love
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
Then your dreams fall apart at the seams
Your reason for living's your reason for leaving
Don't ask me what it means
I don't know the answer to that question
Where's the look
If I knew I would tell you
What's the look
Look for your information
Yes there's one thing, the one thing that still holds true
What's that
The look of love
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
The look of love
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
Then you judge the look by the lover
I hope you'll soon recover
Me I go from one extreme to another
They say, "Martin, maybe one day you'll find true love"
And I say, "Maybe there must be a solution to

Yes, it's about singer Martin Fry's quest for the right partner. I thought that he was saying, Marty, instead of Martin

My kid thinks the chorus is singing;"Pass the milk,pass the milk".And I can't say that I do not sing that now too.

Off of my favorite college album (followed by Stray Cat's first album, The Clash's first album, and Thriller). Just heard this song today on my drive back into town. It's wonderful, but definitely has that 80's new wave-ish sound. Just a song about looking for love and how it can come in strange places and with strange people:)
I love this song. It's a classic 80's arrangement that reminds me of "Don't You Want Me Baby". Great lyrics, too. Although I think the singer has one particular person in mind that he wants that look from. He says, "It takes a lot to love you" as if he's talking about a difficult relationship partner. That's just my take.
This song popped into my head this morning. I haven't heard it in years. I think it's about unconventional situationships, or "it's complicated" relationships. For me it's about waiting for someone that you love to choose you, or make some kind of a commitment. It's about feeling like you're the only one who's trying to be understanding, or compromising. It's about loving someone who has a very different way of showing love and has very different needs from you. It's about having to make a head over heart decision, and being heartbroken about it. In the end, feeling hopeless and wondering if you'll ever find anyone who "gets you" or love that's reciprocated in a way that is meaningful to you. I think the song is also trying to say that the look of love is different for everyone and just because your lover doesn't show it in the same way as you do... that doesn't mean that they don't love you.
