Green Light

About Green Light

"Green light" is a song recorded by Cliff Richard and released as a single in February 1979. It was the third single and title track taken from his 1978 studio album Green Light. The song is written by Alan Tarney who went on to write some of Richard's biggest hits, such as the follow-up single "We Don't Talk Anymore", "Dreamin'" (1980), "Wired for Sound" (1981) and "Some People" (1987). The song peaked at number 57 on the UK Singles Chart in a three-week run. The single was Richard's first single of 1979 and broke his singles-chart drought after his previous three singles in 1978 had all missed the charts - only the second year he had not had a hit single since his debut single in 1958. In the US, the track received FM radio airplay on AOR formats, but didn't chart. Richard especially included the original version on his 1994 greatest hits album The Hit List (primarily made up of all Richard's top 5 hits to that time) despite it not even making the Top 40 of the UK Singles Charts. About the two bonus tracks on the album, he said in the cover sleeve of the album "A lot of you asked for a re-release of "Miss You Nights" so just for you it's included as a bonus and just for me, so is "Green Light"! more »

Searching for a green light
Looking for it all night
Using all my keen sight
Searching for a green light

From just this side of midnight
'Til dawn breaks into daylight
Keepin' myself out of sight
Searching for a green light

Well I've heard this story before
But that doesn't stop me searching
It's been so long since you gave me a sign
A sign to stop my head turning
But all I have are just your old memories
But you know baby, baby that's fine
'Cause I'm spending all of my time

Searching for a green light
Looking for it all night
Using all my keen sight
Searching for a green light

From just this side of midnight
'til dawn breaks into daylight
Keepin' myself out of sight
Searching for green light
Lookin' around

But all I have are your old memories
But you know baby baby that's fine
'Cause I'm spending all of my time

Searching for a green light
Looking for it all night
Using all my keen sight
Searching for a green light

Searching for a green light
From just this of midnight etc....
