Orleans

Orleans is an American pop-rock band best known for its hits "Dance with Me" (1975), "Still the One", from the album Waking and Dreaming (1976) and "Love Takes Time" (1979). The group's name evolved from the music it was playing at the time of their formation, which was inspired by Louisiana artists such as Allen Toussaint and the Neville Brothers. Orleans was formed in Woodstock, New York in January 1972 by vocalist/guitarist/songwriter John Hall, vocalist/guitarist/keyboardist Larry Hoppen and drummer/percussionist Wells Kelly. In October of that year, the group expanded to include Larry's younger brother, Lance, on bass. Drummer Jerry Marotta joined in 1976, completing the quintet. more »

Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Open eyes, another morning
And I still see the world in shades of blue
I was flying in my dreams but when I wake
I'm still lying here thinking of you
Tell me why I keep on drifting
Like a ship on a human sea
Can I cut in line, speed the wheel of time
And find the one who looks for me?

I know love's not just for other people
I want to find someone to call my own
I know love's not just for other people
We weren't put here to live this life alone

Look around at all the other faces
On this search that we all share
Make a sound, shake a hand
Maybe get up and dance
Just let me know you're there
In a crowd, just when you least expect it
May be when your dream comes true
Make it so, let your heart be open
To the light that shines on you

I know love's not just for other people
We weren't put here just to pass the time
I know love's not just for other people
Love's not just for other people
Love's not just for other people, no
There's enough to go around for you and I

(I'll hold on) I'll pray and I'll wait
'Cause I've been told it's never too late

And I know that love's not
Just for other people
We weren't put here just to pass the time
I know that love's not
Just for other people, no
There's enough to go around for you and I
(I know love's not just for other people)
And if we care, and we share
Then love will light our way
(Love's not just for other people)
I want love
(Love's not just for other people)
I need love
(Love's not just for other people)
'Cause it makes this world so
Much brighter day by day
(Love's not just for other people)
I'm gonna find someone to call my very own
(Love's not just for other people)
'Cause I want love
(Love's not just for other people)
I need love
(Love's not just for other people) yeah
And you know we were not put here
To live out our lives alone
(Love's not just for other people)
No, no, no
