Also, Joseph William's brother co-wrote A Thousand Years on the same record and Jimmy Webb co-wrote Home Of The Brave. Byron had help with Love Has The Power on Past to Present.
Stan Lynch was all over the writing on Tambu, he pretty co-wrote every track on that record. Fee Waybill co-wrote On The Run on XX. (Plus, Baba Mnumzane was an outside job but I don't know if that's a cover or an original Toto song) There were a ton of outside writers again for Mindfields and of course there were writers again for XIV.
Falling In Between is the only record since Isolation to have no outside help with the writing (unless you count Steve Porcaro on King Of The World who wasn't a member at the time lol) I prefer having outside writers help with the lyrics, it adds more variety.

You'd make a great early 90's Sony exec, then.

I had no idea. I like that song myself. Did they add something in its place?
