From their self titled first album. This sure scored well.
Jonathon Cole mentioned he was surprised it never charted.
I don't know if it was ever released as a single though.
I read somewhere they got the idea to record it after
hearing Joan Baez' version.
It seems there is nothing to bring us together
To believe in with all of your heart
We've all got that something that's deep down inside of us
(Love's) not a dirty word
(That's) just the way it's heard
Let me prove it to you
#T2) The Rascals: "Look Around" (1969) [-] {-}
From the lp FREEDOM SUITE. This was sold as part of a two
record set with the lp MUSIC MUSIC.
