Biography

At the beginning of their career, Level 42 was squarely a jazz-funk fusion band, contemporaries of fellow Brit funk groups like Atmosfear, Light of the World, Incognito, and Beggar & Co. By the end of the ’80s, however, the band — whose music was instantly recognizable from Mark King’s thumb-slap bass technique and associate member Wally Badarou’s synthesizer flourishes — had crossed over to the point where they were often classified as sophisti-pop and dance-rock, equally likely to be placed in the context of Sade and the Style Council as any group that made polished, upbeat, danceable pop/rock.

LYRICS

How
how can it be
that a love
carved out of caring
fashioned by fate
could suffer so hard
from the games
played once too often
but making mistakes
is a part
of life's imperfections
born of the years
is it so wrong
to be human after all

drawn into the stream
of undefined illusion
those diamond dreams
they can't disguise the truth
that there is something about you
baby so right
I wouldn't be without you
baby tonight

if ever our love
was concealed
no one can say that
we didn't feel
a million things
and a perfect dream of life
gone
fragile but free
we remain
tender together
if not so in love
and it's not so wrong
we're only human after all

these changing years
they add to your confusion
oh and you need to hear
the time that told the truth

you know there's something about you
baby so right
I wouldn't be without you
baby tonight
because there's something about you
baby so right
I couldn't live without you
baby tonight

(Counter Melody)

something about you
the way you are so right
I wouldn't be
without you here tonight
there's something about you
the way you are so right
I couldn't live
without you here tonight
