Beautiful South, The - You Just Can't Smile It Away Lyrics






You just can't smile it away
It's much more than passion it's love
And I've heard some people say
They've seen love move mountains

You just can't laugh it away
It's too deep inside it's love
Not just some game you can play
For a laugh then go on your way

Let's sit and talk it over
And work it out I love you so
And can't we just talk it over
And see what we can do

You can't just pass it away
Like some silly fashion no it's love
And love comes eager to stay
It won't just leave you that way

You can't just pass it away
Like some silly fashion no it's love
And I've heard some people say
They've seen love move mountains no it's love
And I've heard some people say
They've seen love move mountains

  1. A.... E....

    The Beautiful Suit ;-)

  2. e.... ....

    Pretty sure this was 1995. I was a teenager and stayed in specially on my own to watch it.
    Glad I did!

  3. S.... ....

    'When Love For Woman Stops,' - by Paul & Jacqui. Check it out.

  4. B.... ....

    I saw this in early 90's its just a pity its such a lousy recording, as bad as one I made!

  5. R.... T....

    One of the most powerful, evocative and emotional voices in music today.  More power to you Paul Heaton.  Don't ever stop.

  6. A.... S....

    I LOVE his version

  7. S.... ....

    The 3min10 video ''REAL HOPE - PAUL HEATON & JACQUI ABBOTT.''

  8. N.... ....

    grande!!

  9. s.... u....

    I think it was on the 'you keep it all in' B-side

  10. S.... ....

    THE - Tony trumpet Robinson ?? Hope so. (Coz, l'm just about to subscribe) Still with The South? If so,all the best. Peace

  11. T.... R....

    I was there, tony trumpet ( The Beautiful South ) and it was spine numbingly tingly, if that makes any sense!? Much respect always for Gaffa no. 1

  12. s.... w....

    omg im so ashamed , i call myself a fan and yet i have never heard this before , this is beautiful and how upset am i to find my copy of the beautiful south only has 11 tracks on and needless to say this is not on it grrrrr

  13. S.... ....

    Nice one - and good to hear

  14. f.... ....

    Oh, I have the new stuff too. No worries. Paul is a gem.

  15. S.... ....

    Hope you've caught up with his solo stuff? "Fat Chance" - "The Cross Eyed Rambler" and "Acid Country." (plus the upcoming "The 8th") l loved The Housemartins and Beautiful South-But for those that are stuck in the HITS era...lt's time to "create" some more! Let's look forwards-not back (too much!)Peace

  16. f.... ....

    Boy, when they did covers they REALLY did them well. This version of the song is still my favorite cover of an bill withers song-Paul sounds unreal, one of the most beautiful, delicate yet powerful male voices of the last 40 years. Hard to listen to without crying. I knew as far back as the Housemartins' Flag Day that he could sing, but this-and Caravan of Love(another cover) are all great. Carry On Up The Charts(2 disk version) and Now That's What I Call Quite Good compilations are great.

  17. g.... d....

    The best vocalist I have ever heard, been my favorite for happy hour>

    I met Paul in Ottawa at Carleton U and he was kind, generous with his time and put on one hell of a show.

    I am your number 1 fan...

    Cheers

  18. b.... ....

    Nice Bill Withers cover by TBS, gotta love PH's suit

  19. A.... H....

    I've got this on VHS, taped it off the BBC. Will try to upload it one day. It was the earlu 1990s, yes

  20. a.... ....

    been looking for the full version of this show for about 3 years.

  21. I.... H....

    Thanks for this clip. One of my favourite TBS tracks that I've only heard, never seen. PH at his best... and that sax just nails me...

  22. s.... ....

    Beautiful! I love Dave's background singing. It's like the icing on the cake.

  23. i.... ....

    Beautiful song, but like it better with Bill Withers. Anyone have footage of him singing it?
