♫ Sharing The Night Together ♫ (Redux)

I have only played this one once here, back in 2019, but for some reason it popped into my head tonight, so … I hadn’t even given thought to today’s music post last night when my friend John Shafer posted a song on Facebook that I haven’t heard or thought of for a long time.  Shafer was a big guy, probably 6’4″, weighed in at no less than 300 pounds, and when I first met him he was 20-something…

it's a crime that I like listening to dr. hook because whenever I listen to their lyrics I'm like... sir? your wife is not your mom? why are you, a 40something dude singing about a 16 year old? everyone of your friends wants to fuck your girl and you can't trust her to stay loyal cause of your fragile manliness? you can't leave a girl alone when she's marrying another man? bro???

Lyrics:

When you're in love with a beautiful woman

It's hard

When you're in love with a beautiful woman

You know it's hard (it's hard, you know it gets so hard)

Everybody wants her, everybody loves her

Everybody wants to take your baby home

When you're in love with a beautiful woman

You watch your friends

(You watch your friends, you better watch your friends)

When you're in love with a beautiful woman

It never ends (it never ends, you know it never ends)

You know that it's crazy, you wanna trust her

Then somebody hangs up when you answer the phone

When you're in love with a beautiful woman

You go it alone

Maybe it's just an ego problem

Problem is I've been fooled before

By fair-weather friends and faint hearted lovers

And every time it happens, it just convinces me more

When you're in love with a beautiful woman

You watch her eyes (watch her eyes, baby, watch her eyes)

When you're in love with a beautiful woman

You look for lies (keep lookin' for lies, baby, look for lies)

Everybody tempts her, everybody tells her

She's the most beautiful woman they know

When you're in love with a beautiful woman

You go it alone

When you're in love with a beautiful woman

You watch your friends (you watch your friends)

(You better watch your friends, you better look out)

When you're in love with a beautiful woman

Oh, it never ends (it never ends, you know it never ends)

Songwriter: Even Stevens

When you're in love with a beautiful woman

You watch her eyes (watch her eyes, baby, watch her eyes)

(You better watch her eyes)

When you're in love with a beautiful woman

Keep lookin' for lies (keep lookin' for lies, keep lookin' for lies)

When you're in love with a beautiful woman...

SongFacts:

“When You're in Love with a Beautiful Woman” is an internationally successful single by Dr. Hook. It was recorded at Muscle Shoals Sound Studio, Alabama.

Written by Even Stevens, who followed producer Ron Haffkine into the studio bathroom to introduce him to the song "When You're in Love with a Beautiful Woman", which first appeared on the band's 1978 album Pleasure and Pain. Riding on the disco wave in 1979, it belatedly became an international hit, reaching number six on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart in the US and doing even better in the UK, where it spent three weeks at number in November 1979 one of the British singles charts. The song was subsequently added to the band's 1979 album "Sometimes You Win."
