THE OTHER WOMAN, THE OTHER MAN
Lyrics & Music by...
Gerard Kenny / Barry Mason)
Gerard Kenny - 1984
Lyrics...
Oh what a tangled web we weave
When we practise to deceive,
We play our games and tell our lies
And synchronise our alibis.

They say forbidden fruit tastes sweeter,
It's precious and so rare,
It's heaven when you taste it,
And it's hell when it's not there.
I don't see you when I want to
You only see me when you can,
'Cause you're the other woman
And I'm the other man

May be wrong, but it feels so right
Lying here in the candle light.
A secret place for you and me
And nowhere else we'd rather be.

They say forbidden fruit tastes sweeter ,
It's precious and so rare,
It's heaven when you taste it,
And it's hell when it's not there.
I don't see you when I want to
You only see me when you can,
'Cause you're the other woman
And I'm the other man

It's paradise but we pay the price,
'Cause ecstasy doesn't come free.
I don't see you when I want to,
And you only see me when you can
'Cause you're the other woman
And I'm the other......

Oh what a tangled web we weave
When we practise to deceive.

the best version is by the writer, Gerard Kenny.

onlythedj2008,

I have never heard Gerard Kenny's version, but It figures the the writer would give the song the correct interpretation that he had in mind when he wrote it.

Thank you for you r interesting Comment.:)

My best wishes,

Jack Jones, very handsome, good singer also. But I have to agree with enagood, he lacks the passion and emotion that Engelbert has in this song. But I am a little prejudiced also as I am a huge Engelbert Fan. He has that WOW factor that only he possesses.

totallyamazing36,

Thank you for favouriting my video of Jack Jones.)...

...Although he looks very lonely in the company of sooo many of Englebert's video's.(

However, I thank you for your interest and your comment.:)

Best wishes,

This version has no passion.!! Engelbert sings it and you know there is Another Man and Another Woman!!!! He sings all of his songs with emotion that touchs your heart.

[trooper7h]

enogood,

It's not for me to argue with someone who has approximately 135 of Engelbert's videos favourited on their channel.:)

Your devotion to him is without doubt unqualified...Congratulations.­:)

I send you my regards and Best wishes.

No accounting for taste. Engelbert is not in the same league as JJ in vocal terms..he just wore bigger jewelry!

[bobvocal]

this is a song by a pure class singer.

@trooper7h WELL ANSWER,D

[lotusbuds2000]

Being a huge!!! JJ fan, I am agreeing with feelitliveitdoitbeit. THANK YOU SO MUCH for posting this song by the great inimitable Jack Jones singing.

[feelitliveitdoitbeit]

you simply can not compare a very plasent entertainer with a superb vocal technician like Jack Jones

He will outclass(& outsing) all comers

Obviously we ARE all allowed our different opinions this is only mine! great music! thanks for sharing
