Squeezewas a British rock music band that came to prominence in the new waveperiod of the late 1970s. The group formed in London in 1974. The two main writing partners in the band, Chris Diffordand Glenn Tilbrook, are widely considered to be among the finest melodic pop songwriters of their generation and have often been compared with the legendary Lennon-McCartney partnership, although unlike The Beatles, Difford and Tilbrook's direct collaboration on songs continued through most of the group's career. The original lineup of the band also included pianist Jools Holland, who went on to become a popular solo artist and bandleader, and is now best known as the host of the critically-acclaimed and highly successful British music TV show Later with Jools Holland. Squeeze's lineup in the 1980s also featured the lead vocals of Paul Carrack, who was also one of the lead singers of Mike & The Mechanicsas well as a solo artist.

Squeeze
(difford/tilbrook)
Action speaks faster
Faster than words
Pull her towards you
Let love be heard
And when we kissed there was a room that had been emptied
You said so much without a word Id been tempted
Loves not for sale theres not a price
Who could have rented
Who lives here now come out and be found where I have nested
My eyelashes swam up through the tears
The moments that passed took two or three years
And when we talked there was rain and no attraction
Hand to my head, eyes to the ground, no reaction
Our love was home, now its a fort thats held up to ransom
What of us now, now theres no laughs, where is the action
