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.

I Learnt How To Pray Lyrics
Squeeze
(difford/tilbrook)
Shes been good to me
And her aim is plain,
With an open mind
And a tender way.
As she looks through boxes of secondhand clothes
Shes a first class person as her best friend knows.
Shes been good to me
Helped me not to lie,
Listens to my words
And the truth she finds.
As I fell in love with my very best freind
I didnt realise that our friendship would end.
I learnt how to pray
Every night,
To relieve the pain
Deep inside.
I was serious with a furrowed brow
I just fell in love what do I do now?
As I fell in love with my very best friend
I didnt realise that our friendship would end.
It didnt work for us the lesson I learnt
The fire was lit and I got burnt.
And I fell in love with my very best friend
I didnt realise that our friendship would end.
