All the love in the world

The Outfield
A trio of Tony Lewis (vocals), John Spinks (guitar) and Alan Jackman (drums), Outfield formed in the East End of London, England, in the mid '80s. However, all of their success would come in the USA. Signed to Columbia Records, they recorded the bland but proficient pop rock debut Play Deep in 1986, which included the successful radio single "Your Love'. As a result the album rose to number 9 in Billboard's US charts and achieved double platinum sales. A second collection, Bangin', was released a year later and reached the US Top 20 and went gold. However, afterwards the group's career hit a downward spiral. The group followed their Columbia Records" boss to MCA Records in 1990 but the move failed to revive their flagging career. Jackman later played with After Hours.

All the Love in the World

I can't believe the things that happen to me
I guess that I should have seen a long, long time ago
Letters you write don't help me get through the night
So, I'll just turn out the light
and sleep here all alone
All the love, all the love in the world
All the love, I'll be sending you girl
All the love
All the love in the world

Time after time I put my life on the line
but I ain't committed no crime, so take what you can find
Forget what I say 'cuz I'll keep running away
I only live for today, but I'm one day behind

All the love, all the love in the world
All the love, I'll be sending you girl
All the love
All the love in the world

These are the words that I whisper on every first night,
but that day you left me,
those words were on that same flight

I can't believe the things that happen to me
I guess that I should have seen a long, long time ago,
Letters you write don't help me get through the night,
so I'll just turn out the light,
and sleep here all alone

All the love, all the love in the world
All the love, I'll be sending you girl
All the love, all the love in the world
All the love, all the love in the world
