About After You

"After You" is a song recorded by Dionne Warwick for her 1979 album Dionne: released as the album's third single in the spring of 1980, "After You" would peak at number 65 on the U. S. Billboard Hot 100. It also reached number 10 on the Adult Contemporary chart. "After You" had first been recorded by Warwick's aunt Cissy Houston in 1978 for her album Think It Over, the song's composers: Doug Frank and Doug James, being staff writers for Love-Zager Productions, which firm produced Houston's album. However Frank and James had written "After You" in hopes of having Barry Manilow record it: receiving a demo of the song from its composers, Manilow - who was producing the Dionne album - had Warwick record the song. The song was also recorded by the Manhattans for their 1979 album Love Talk, and by Chuck Jackson for his 1980 album I Wanna Give You Some Love. more »

Some times I tell myself I'm leaving
And I'd like to think I could really go
But it's just my pride that I'm deceiving
'Cause deep inside I really know

After you
Who could there be
After you
What's left for me

I'd be lost if you'd ever go
I'd just be broken in two
'Cause who could there be
After you

Before you I was always running
My heart was always chasing someone new
But I could feel a change was comin'
When my heart kept on chasin', racin'

After you
Who could there be
After you
What's left for me

I'd be lost if you'd ever go
I'd just be broken in two
'Cause who could there be
After you

If I thought someone could take your place
I'd just be kiddin' myself
'Cause I know I'd have to be a fool
To think that I could feel this way
For someone else, for someone else 'cause

After you
Who could there be
After you
What's left for me

I'd be lost if you'd ever go
I'd just be broken in two
'Cause who could there be
After you

Tell me who could there be
After you
