You with the lie on your face
You told me that no one
Had taken my place and I
Loved you right from the start
But now you've found someone
Who's stolen your heart
So I must run
Find a place to hide
Take my love
Hold it deep inside
Find someone
Who can help me to forget
The pain and now you're
To blame
One good lover we'd take care of each other
I want one good lover
Every day every night
He was always
He was always right
You with the lie on your face
You told me that no one
Could break us apart
But I see those promises
Made for what they were
There for and what you
Have gained
Now I must run
Find a place to hide
Take my love
Hold it deep inside
Find someone
Who can help me to forget
The pain and now you're
To blame
Just give me
One good lover
We'd take care of each other
I want one good lover
For the rest of my life
I'd never scream
I'd never fight
One good lover we'd take care of each other
I want one good lover
Every day every night
He was always
He was always right
I know you won't believe
A word I tell you
But he'll look me in the
Eye and I'll know it
Right away
Just give me
One good lover
We'd take care of each other
I want one good lover
For the rest of my life
I'd never scream
I'd never fight
One good lover we'd take care of each other
I want one good lover
Every day every night
He was always
He was always right
One good lover
We'd take care of each other
I want one good lover
Every day every night
He was always right

1989's All is Forgiven was the debut album by the band Siren (briefly known as Red Siren). While the Kansas-esque cover artwork might suggest a progressive rock album, Siren's sound definitely falls into the mainstream pop/rock style of the late 80's. I hear a lot of similarities to artists like Private Life, Robin Beck, and 80's era Heart, and singer Kristen Massey's vocals sound like a cross between Stevie Nicks and Belinda Carlisle.
While I don't necessarily agree that this album is worth a 5-star rating, it's still a very solid pop/rock album. When it's good (see One Good Lover, Stand Up, and Rock-a-Bye), it's very good. Unfortunately some of the more laid back songs like How Dare a Woman and the title track tend to kill the momentum a bit and give the album a sense of unevenness. And while the musicianship is very tight, you can't help but wish they had come up with some better guitar hooks to really grab people's attention. It was the 80's after all.
I do agree that this album was sadly overlooked. Given some of the similar artists that made it big in that era, Siren definitely deserved more success, and would have had just that if the record company had done something - anything - to promote the band. Instead the band's legacy lies with those who were either with them from the start or people like me who ran across the disc in a cutout bin and decided to take a chance.
