About a year ago there was a post looking for the lyrics to LIVING IN THE HEART OF LOVE. Those on the Keno site are suspect. I finally got my studio phones away from my son and thought I'd take another shot at picking out some words. I'm sure corrections will be needed any help is appreciated.

Living in the heart of love
Living in the heart of love
Living in the heart of love
Living in the heart of love

Sing me there, my friend Gene
Say I like my crazy season
Then I saw her, just outside
Thought I'd never sleep at night

Living in the heart of love
Living in the heart of love
Living is the finer love
Living is the finer love

I'm trying so hard to be your baby
I'm trying so hard to be your lover
I'm trying so hard to be your baby
I'm trying so hard

Living, yeah, living, yeah
Living in the heart of love
Living is the finer love

He's your type he'll kick and touch
Don't say nothin' talks so much
I won't miss giving that's more pain
Don't you make trouble, you're my slave

I'm not crazy, don't miss girl
I ain't waiting for the sky to fall
I'll play it dirty I'll play it clean
I'll go down, I'll be mean, oh yeah

I'm working so hard to be your baby
I'm working so hard to be your lover
I'm working so hard to be your baby
I'm working so hard baby
I'm working so hard

i;d imagine those lyrics are way off the mark

If they really wrote lyrics as bad as that, theyd need to either give up or take English lessons

A writing technique is to put together a melody and then throw in some words that seem to fit in certain places to get a feel for the songs structure. The words don't necessarly have to make sense at that stage of the process.

isn't the title Living Is A Harder Love???

Depends on who you ask :-) It's been listed both ways but I think most have gone with Heart of Love working title. There are numerous boots that list the song as Harder Love but Nico Zentgraf in his Complete Works of the Rolling Stones satates that the title is Heart of Love - Jan 1974 rehersal in Germany

The studio sleaves read Living in the Heart of Love. By the way, the technique Gazza mentiones is called "vowel movement": you make up lyrics with words are noises that sound good in order to come up with the melody, in a later stage you write a decent lyric. LITHOL lyrics are nonsensical.

Great song by the way. On Lonely At The Top I think something is wrong with the speed (too fast), but it's a great song.
