    Question 80's rock song - "She's gone lookin' for a lover..." (WAV included)

    "laroh" recorded the last minute of this song from radio in '83 or 84. Here it is:

    http://83.227.252.10/x/x-s1.wav

    What I can make out of the lyrics, with unclear parts in brackets:

    [Of taking a ritual
    Meeting with friends]
    You know that it's cool
    You know that she never pretends
    She'll always come through
    And give it to you, in the end

    She's gone lookin' for a lover
    You gotta make it past the desert [above her]
    Don't try to reach out and touch
    It's no use, she won't
    Turn you loose, til she done

    Gone lookin' for a lover
    You gotta make it past the desert [above her]
    Don't try to reach out and touch
    It's all right, she won't
    Turn you loose, 'til tonight


    Any leads?

    I have not had any luck finding a song with these lyrics. While the style and sound reminds me of the group Timbuk3, they did not release their first album until 1986.
    Them that can, do; them that can't... memorize Artist and Title

    I could be wrong but doesn't this sound just like Nick Lowe
