Love Can Do That is an album by Elaine Paige, released in 1991. It was Paige's first album released by RCA and marketed in Europe by BMG. Produced by Dennis Lambert and recorded at The Zoo in Encino, California. The album reached #36 in the UK album chart.
The album was the nearest Paige's recordings came to contemporary pop, featuring a number of ballads that were previously recorded by artists such as Diana Ross's "Heart Don't Change My Mind" and Cyndi Lauper's "True Colors". The songs also included "Same Train", a duet with Christopher Cross, and "Only The Very Best", from the concept musical Tycoon for which Tim Rice wrote an English lyric. The song was originally performed in French in the musical Starmania.
No-one can have more than their due
I wanted life, I wanted you
Only the very best
A reasonable request
This is too high a price to pay
Now they've taken you away
Might as well take me
Down, down to hell for I don't care
They can put me anywhere
Throw away the key
I always walked a definite line
Cutting a dash, cutting it fine
And once, only once did I lose control
I gave her my soul
And I gave, and I gave, and I gave
Her my soul
I was immortal till today
Now I feel a cold decay
Crawling over me
No-one can have more than their due
I wanted life, I wanted you
Only the very best
No other interest
This is the way you should remain
Never feeling any pain
Never growing old
Sleep little one, your night is here
Mine is growing very near
Oh, it's getting cold
