Still In Love With You
Carpenters · Other Songs - Carpenters
I laid more than eyes on you
We've been in love for a long time
And I'm still in love with you
(*) I am so still in love with you
Will you always understand
I do not know what I would do
Without you
I'm in perpetual motion
And I am always on the move
You must have slipped me a potion babe
Cause I'm still in love with you
Repeat (*)
You don't leave me any reason
I don't need no alibies
So don't ask me no questions, babewon't hand you any lies
Repeat (*)
And you know that tomorrow
Will be different than to day
We beg, steal and borrow but
But we always stay the same
Repeat (*) twice
Still In Love With You
Released by the Carpenters, "Still In Love With You" stands as a quintessential example of their signature soft rock and pop sound. The track features Karen Carpenter's distinctive, melodic vocal delivery, characterized by her clear tone and emotional phrasing that became a hallmark of the duo's recordings. Written by Burt Bacharach and Hal David, the song reflects the group's ability to blend sophisticated composition with accessible melodies, a hallmark of their mid-to-late 1960s discography. It captures the gentle, romantic atmosphere typical of their work, often serving as a bridge between their earlier, more upbeat material and their later, more introspective ballads. The recording showcases the Carpenters' tight harmonies and the interplay between Karen's lead vocals and Richard's rhythmic guitar work, cementing their status as one of the most influential vocal duos of the era.
