80's Song of The Day: "If Your Heart Isn't In It" by Atlantic Starr

Does anybody remember this jam? heart this song, just got through listening to it on my headphones.


If Your Heart Isn't In It
by Atlantic Starr


It’s a fragile situation
It could fall apart at any time
And none would be the wiser
‘Cept you and I

It seems that we stopped talking
like we’re afraid to disagree
And after we’ve been through
Can we still be that naive

CHORUS
If my heart isn’t in it,
why cant you tell me so
If my heart wasn’t in it,
I’d have gone long ago
If your heart isn’t in it
why keep me hanging on
Just tell me and I’ll be gone
from your life

You treat me like a stranger
as if I wasn’t there

Oh, baby, I waited for a miracle
To make you show that you care

CHORUS

If your heart isn’t in it
why can’t...

I can’t go through the motions
I have to know

If your heart isn’t in it.
why can’t you tell me so

I can’t go to the limit
I have to know

If your heart...
Ooh, can’t you tell me so
I have to know
If your heart isn’t it
Why keep me hanging on
Just tell me and I’ll be gone
Don’t keep me hanging on
for dear life


music music
RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you.

Yeah,I really really love this song music I hated the pop-py "Secret Lovers",but thankfully,they followed it up with the outstanding "If Your Heart Isn't In It".


Do you guys remember the video? It was very creative.The bandmembers are at a movie premiere,watching their OWN movie which is based on the song's lyrics.It's a tense,romantic drama and when it's over,everyone leaves the theatre,congratulating them.I thought it was clever.

Of course, I used to listen to that cassette all time. I had the BIGGEST crush on Barbara Weathers. Wonder what ever happened to her? My fave cut during her tenure with the band is "All in the Name of Love".
