New Featured Unknown/Underrated Song of the Rock Era

Here's one of The Best Songs Never to Make the Top 10*, which we call The Top Unknown/Underrated Songs of the Rock Era*.


The album Bustin' Out was first released in 1972 but this single was released in 1975 and it only made it to #27.  But the song deserved much better then and deserves now to be recognized for being the great song it is:
"Fallin' In and Out of Love/Amie"
Pure Prairie League


Words and Music by Craig Fuller




[FALLING IN AND OUT OF LOVE]

More than I could feel
And touching what is real
All my mind is reelin' round
'cause Carolina's feeling down today

Falling in and out of love with you
Falling in and out of love with you
Don't know what I'm gonna do
I keep falling in and out of love

Oh, I tried to find
Thinkin' just the other day
Something that would ease her mind
Something that I meant to say to her

Falling in and out of love with you
Falling in and out of love with you
Don't know what I'm gonna do
I keep falling in and out of love with you

I think I could stay with you for a while, maybe longer, if I do

[AMIE]

I can see why you think you belong to me
I never tried to make you think or let you see one thing for yourself
But now you're off with someone else and I'm alone
You see, I thought that I might keep you for my own

Amie, what d'you want to do?
I think I could stay with you for a while, maybe longer, if I do
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/p/pure_prairie_league/amie_falling_in_and_out_of_love.html ]
Don't you think the time is right for us to find
All the things we thought weren't proper could be right, in time
And, can you see which way we should turn together or alone?
I can never see what's right or what is wrong
(Don't take too long with me)

Amie, what d'you want to do?
I think I could stay with you for a while, maybe longer, if I do

Amie, what d'you want to do?
I think I could stay with you for a while, maybe longer, if I do

Now it's come to what you want - you've had your way
And all the things you thought before just faded into grey
And can you see that I don't know if it's you or if it's me?
If it's one of us I'm sure we both will see

(Won't you look at me and tell me...)
Amie, what d'you want to do?
I think I could stay with you for a while, maybe longer, if I - longer, if I do

(Yeah, now...)
Amie, what d'you want to do?
I think I could stay with you for a while, maybe longer, if I do

I keep falling in and out of love with you
Falling in and out of love with you
Don't know what I'm gonna do
I keep falling in and out of love with you
