Yield not to temptation, for yielding is sin
Each victory will help you or some others to win
Fight manfully onward, dark passions subdue
Look ever to Jesus and He'll carry you through
Just ask the Savior to help you
To comfort, strengthen and keep you
He is willing to aid you
And He will carry you through
Ask the Savior to help you
To comfort, strengthen and heal you
Oh, He is willing to aid you
Jesus will carry you through
Shun evil companions, bad language disdain
God's name hold in reverence, don't take it in vain
Be thoughtful and honest, kindhearted and true
Look ever to Jesus, He'll carry you through
Oh, ask the Savior to help you
To comfort, strengthen and keep you
Oh, He is willing to aid you
Jesus, He will carry you through
All I wanna do is ask the Savior to help you
Comfort, strengthen and keep you
He is willing to aid you
And He will carry you through
I wanna just ask the Savior to help you
To comfort, strengthen and keep you

You'll never hear me say
Baby, I'm gonna turn my back and walk away
(Baby, baby)
Baby, I'll see you another day, hey
Baby, I'm so, I'm so
(Baby)
Thankful for your love, angel
Thankful for your love, every day
Glad you're mine
Aww, hey, hey, hey
I, I'm so in love with you
Whatever you want to do
Is all right with me
'Cause you make me feel so brand new
And I want to spend my life with you
Since, since we've been together
Loving you forever
Is what I need
Let me be the one you come running to
I'll never be untrue
Let's, let's stay together
Lovin' you whether, whether
Times are good or bad, happy or sad
Whether times are good or bad, happy or sad
Why, why some people break up
Then turn around and make up
I just can't see
You'd never do that to me (would you, baby)
Staying around you is all I see
(Here's what I want us to do)
Coda (repeat to fade):
Let's, we oughta stay together
Loving you whether, whether
Times are good or bad, happy or sad
If I were you, I'd write a letter
I'd tell the world just how I feel
If I were you, I'd make it better
And as the world just watch the [Incomprehensible]
You know it's true
I do love you
Hold on, hold on
And I'm still your right
Babe, day and night
Hold on, hold on
If I were you, I'd change my heart
And I'd never leave, never leave you
If I were you, I'd write a letter
Before this day, this day is through
I know you're a
If I were you, I'd write a letter

If I were you, I'll make it better

If I were you, I'd hold on
If I were you, if I were you
If I were you
If I were you, I'd walk right
(feat. Vonda Shepard)
The time has come
For closing books, and long last looks must end
And as I leave
I know that I am leaving my best friend
A friend who taught me right from wrong
And weak from strong
That's a lot to learn
What, what can I give you in return?
If you wanted the moon
I would try to make a start
But I, would rather let me give my heart
To you, with love
Those schoolgirl days
Of telling tales and biting nails are gone, yeah
But in my mind
I know that they live on and on and on and on
But how do you thank someone
Who has taken you from crayons to perfume?
Well it's not easy
But I'll try
If you wanted the sky
I would write across the sky in letters
That would soar a thousand feet high
To you, with love
Those awkward years have hurried by
Why did they fly, fly away
Why is it Sir children, grow up to be people one day?
What takes the place of climbing tres and dirty knees in the world outside?
What, what is there that I can buy?
If you wanted the world
I'd surround it with a wall I'd scrawl
These words withe letters ten feet tall
To you, With love
LIVIN' FOR YOU
Al Green
(Al Green; W. Mitchell)
I guess there's no good reason for livin'...
But I'll keep on livin' for you, baby...
There's nothing else to do, babe...
But spend my life holding you and lovin' you...
Oh...
If I ask you more than one million times to forgive me...
You think of a reason why...
that you should make me cry (don't make me cry)...
walk out and say goodbye away from me...
Oh...
I'm tired of the bright ideas about leavin' me...
when you know you ain't goin' nowhere...
but here with me...
here with me...
Let me tell you a thing...
stop and think of just how good I've been to you baby...
I'm causin' no trouble for you baby...
this story just can't be true, baby...
how can I convince you, baby...
but just tell you the truth...
I'm livin' for you... givin' for you... waitin' for you...
(lemme tell you what I'm doin'...)
I'm layin' for you... prayin' for you... workin' for you...
(...livin' my life, I tell you that...)
I'm livin' for you... givin' for you... givin' for you...
layin' for you... prayin' for you... workin' for you...
(everything I do I still...)
do with you... (something to) do with you...
[fade]
Find my way, in the five o'clock rush hour,
As daylight, slowly leaves the sky.
I open the door, to that little room,
That we call home.
Loving arms, are there, to greet me,
Tender lips are there, to meet me.
At the end of the day,
You know it's, always been that way.
Then I find my way, through the early morning traffic,
But someone else, is heavy, heavy, on my mind.
Open the door to our favorite little coffee shop,
(Ohh, ya'll) the girl is right on time. (Now, come one.)
Loving arms, are there, to greet me,
Tender lips are there, always there to meet me.
And that's how I start my day,
It's just too bad it doesn't end that way.
(One woman's making my home)
One women's making my home,
(But the other woman's making me wrong)
The other girl, is making me do wrong.
I didn't mean, let it get that strong, no baby.
I got to decide, where I belong.
(One woman's making my home)
Sometimes I get so mixed up inside,
(But the other woman's making me wrong)
I wish I could find a place, to hide.
I didn't mean, I didn't mean,
I didn't mean to let it get that strong, nah girl.
I got to decide, where I belong.
Some times in our lives, we all have pain, we all have sorrow.
But, if we are wise, we know that there's always tomorrow.
Chorus:]
Lean on me, when your not strong, and I'll be your friend,
I'll help you carry on. For it won't be long, 'till I'm gonna need
somebody to lean on.
Please, swallow your pride, if I have
made, you need to borrow. For no one can feel those of your
needs, that you won't let show.
You just call on your brother when you need a hand, we all
need somebody to lean on. I just might have a problem that
you'll understand, we all need some body to lean on.
[Chorus]
You just call on your brother, when you need a hand, we all
need somebody to lean on. I just might have a problem that
you'll understand. We all need someone to lean on
If, there is a load, that you have to bear, that you can't carry,
I'm right up the road, I'll share your load, if you just call me.
Call me
I started to write this song about you
And then I decided that I would write it all about love
And it appeared to me
That you wasn't happy
And that's for sure, positively
That's what the world is made of
So give me more L-O-V-E, love
Love is a walk down Main street (oh love)
Love is an apple that is so sweet (love)
Love is something that can't be beat (love)
L-O-V-E is strange to me, Oh
I can't explain this feeling
Can't you see that salvation is freeing
It's all in the heavens, can't you see
You can always depend on me
To give you love
Love is a flower in my soul (oh love)
Love is a story that just can't be told (love)
Can't you feel it burning more and more (love)
Stop and look at the big wheel roll
I can't explain this feeling
Can't you see that salvation is freeing
I would give my life for the glory
Just to be able to tell the story
About love
I didn't mean to make you mad
A sweet story, I thought I had
But maybe time will bring us together
And I can be such a happy fella
About love
Love is something that is so divine (oh love)
Love is a feeling that's a friend of mine (love)
It can't be measured by no sign (love)
In your heart or even in your mind
About love, Love is as bright as the morning sun
I never thought dreams could happen,
Until one came true for me.
Since I met Judy,
Since I met Judy,
My life has been one sweet melody.
Yeah! Yeah!
I never thought I could welcome....
Two other hearts as I do.
Oh...Since I met Judy,
Since I met Judy,
Well it's been a real hip thing I'm telling you.
Oh, saying that I want Judy.
Talking about beauty,
She's got it.
I know she's got it.
Her sweet little ways,
Mean so much to me.
Oh yeah! Oh yeah!
I'm making mine Judy.
To love her! Got her! Got her! Yeah! Yeah!
Gonna keep her right here with me.
Yeah! Oh yeah!
Now I find it hard to believe, that I'm happy.
All my pains and heartaches are all gone.
So glad I can tell the world:
Since I met Judy,
Since I met Judy,
Well my life has been one sweet song.
I won't be worried long.
If you think I'm gonna leave her,
Man, you're wrong.
It's only Judy.
I'm telling you you're wrong.
I love Judy.
I'm crazy about that Judy.
Judy, Judy, Judy!

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone,
it's not warm when she's away.
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone,
and she's always gone too long
anytime she goes away.
Wonder, this time where she's gone,
wonder if she's gonna stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone,
and this house just ain't no home,
anytime she goes away.
And i know,i know, i know, i know, i know
i know,i know, i know, i know, i know
i know,i know, i know, i know, i know
i know,i know, i know, i know, i know
i know, hey i ought to leave the young thing alone,
But ain't no sunshine when she's gone,
only darkness everyday.
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone,
and this house just ain't no home,
anytime she goes away.
Anytime she goes away, anytime she goes away
Anytime she goes away......
Well hello there
My, it's been a long long time
How am I doin'
Oh well, I guess I'm doin' fine
It's been so long now and it seems that
It was only yesterday
Ain't it funny how time slips away
How's your new love
I hope that he's doin' fine
Heard you told him, yes baby
That you'd love him till the end of time
Well you know, that's the same thing
That you told me
Well, it seems like just the other day
Ain't it funny how time slips away
Gotta go now
Guess I'll see you hanging round
Don't know when though
Never know when I'll be back in town
But I remember what I told you
That in time you're gonna pay
Well ain't it surprisin' how time slips away
HERE I AM (COME AND TAKE ME)
Al Green
(A. Green, T. Hodges)
From the album: Call Me
I can't believe that it's real,
the way that you make me feel.
A burning deep down inside,
a love that I cannot hide.
Our love is you and me baby,
that makes the world go round.
And if you've been doin' lovin' with me,
layin' all my troubles down,
here I am, baby,
come and take me.
Here I am, baby,
come and take me,
take me by the hand.
Show me,
here I am, baby.
It always ends up this way,
me begging you every day.
A love that I cannot have,
you broke my heart into half.
Our love is you and me baby,
that make's the world go round.
And if you've been doin' lovin' with me,
layin' all my troubles down,
here I am, baby,
come and take me,
Here I am, baby,
come and take me,
take me by the hand.
Show me,

When I'm down I can always call you,
for a helpin' hand.
I know you'll do the best you can.
But it don't take much from me,
just my cup of joe.
Oh there's love inside me,
I believe there's one to be explodin',
It's tough for me, oh baby,
I can do worry,
tell me all your troubles.
You won't ever have to worry now,
Just one more thing, ask everybody,
everybody you see,
you'll find yourselve lost and alone on a darkened street,
here I am, baby,
come and take me.
Here I am, baby,
come and take me,
take me by the hand.
Show me,
here I am, baby...
Hear that lonesome whippoorwill?
He sounds too blue to fly.
The midnight train is whining low:
I'm so lonesome I could cry.
I've never seen a night so long,
When time goes crawling by.
The moon just went behind a cloud,
To hide its face and cry.
Did you ever see a robin weep,
When leaves begin to die?
That means he's lost his will to live.
I'm so lonesome I could cry.
The silence of a falling star,
Lights up a purple sky.
And as I wonder where you are,
I'm so lonesome I could cry.
You say it, He was here
Might not be able to sing like a man, you say it
Might not be able to sing like a man, yeah
Might not be able to preach like Paul, baby
Might not be able to preach like Paul
I'm in love with you, girl, that ain't all, come on
I'm in love with you, and that ain't all
I wanna call you up and say how I feel, baby
Wanna call you up and say how I feel
I got to let you know my love is real, you say it
Got to let you know my love is real
Take time, don't give a damn, alright
I've been wanting to call you up for a long, long time, baby
Want to call your number for a long, long time
I got to let you know that your love is mine, alright now
Got to let you know your love is mine, alright
La, la, la, I feel alright, you say it
La, la, la, I feel alright
Sit right down and talk to me
About how you want to be
You ought to be with me
Ya, you ought to be with me
Thinkin' about what people do
Talkin' about how I love you
Thinkin' there's nothin' to what they say
You're gonna to be with me, anyway
They don't want to see us do
All of the dumb things we want to
You ought to be with me
Hey, you ought to be with me
You don't have to waste my time
If you want to be a friend of mine
You can be denied and walk away
And turn your back for another day
You ought to be the kind of girl
That can brighten this old world
And it's hard to see why you and me
Can't be together happily
I'm trying to realize
You being with some other guy
I don't know the reason why
You ought to be with me until I die
Hey, you ought to be with me until I die
I don't want to waste my time
If you want to be a friend of mine
I want to hold you tight, love you right
You are so beautiful to me
You are so beautiful to me
Can?t you see
You?re everything I?d hoped for
You?re everything I need
You are so beautiful to nobody but me
Such joy and happiness you bring
Such joy and happiness you bring
Like a dream you're everything, I I hoped for
You?re everything that I need
And you are so beautiful
You are just beautiful to me
You are beautiful to me
You are so beautiful
You are so beautiful
You are beautiful to me
You're everything, I hoped for
You?re everything that I need
You are how to explain, that
I can't stop
Just can't stop
I can't stop
I just can't stop from loving you
I can't stop my hands from holding you
There must be a reason why I feel so free
No, I can't stop, no no no, I
You and me, you and me
And I can't stop
I just can't stop from holding you
And I can't quit a love like this from consuming you
There must be a reason why I feel so free
No, I can't stop, no no no, I
From loving you, you loving me
Your love is more than I deserve
Oh baby, you made me, gave me your love
Just can't stop
No, I can't stop from loving you, no
You keep me hanging on
Of whatever I do
There must be a reason why I feel so free
No, I can't stop, no no no, I
No, I can't stop
No, I can't stop
No, I can't stop
Just can't stop
Oh baby
No, I can't stop
Just can't stop
Oh hands, leave alone
I know I can't stop
Just can't stop
Oh, what a wonderful thing love is
Oh, I can see you standing there now
And your the prettiest thing in the crowd

Distant things are happening, not as bad as they seem
Don't put off tomorrow for what today might bring
I'd be satisfied now to gain one single thing
Don't look away now, girl, things are looking bright
Don't put off tomorrow, girl, for what's in store tonight, baby
I want my baby, tonight baby, I can't wait no longer
Here now baby

Trying to ignore her pain, all the happiness
Anything you want girl, I will give complete

Don't put off tomorrow, girl, for what's in store tonight, baby
C'mon now baby, hey, tonight baby, oh baby, hey, c'mon

Don't put off tomorrow, girl, for what's in store tonight, baby
C'mon now baby, hey, tonight baby, baby
There's no way
There's just no way
I could leave your love behind
If I could live my life all over, I'd do everything the same
The film in my camera would reveal everything the same
Like kissin' you every mornin', lovin' you day by day
Dreaming dreams of you and every old way will
When the sun peeps through my window
I'll have you on my mind
There's no way, there's no way
To leave your love behind
When you hair turns to silver and I'm old and gray
I'll keep on lovin' you, yeah, the same old way
When you come to the end of your journey
If I'm lucky enough to be around
I'll hold your picture to my chest
But tears will be still falling down, yeah
I'll keep you in my memory for the rest of my days
There's no way, there's no way to leave your love behind
Oh, behind, yeah
If I could walk through the garden again, you'd be the flower I pick
The episode of our love would give my heart a kick, yeah
If I could take the song from the top, one more time
I would sing the same old lines, yeah
I'll tell you there's just no way, no, no
There's no way to leave your love behind, behind
Oh, no, I can't leave it behind, oh
I can leave behind
Behind
Can't leave love, no
Behind
There's just no way
Behind
There's no way, no
Behind
As the door over left behind to
Stand wide open for us to see
There is one thing in life I told you
I can see you but you can't see me, yeah
That's the way, sometimes that's the way it is
That's the way, sometimes that's the way it is
That's the way, sometimes that's the way it is
That's the way it is
As my Father up in heaven above
Shining star that is full of love
And He is a big surprise that just open your hearts
And if that's one thing that I'm mighty proud of
You see now
There are sometimes when you make me happy
There are sometimes when you make me sad
But that's a part of life give it what you have
To all I ask is forget the bad
That's the way, that's the way it is
That's the way, sometimes that's the way it is
That's the way, that's the way it is
That's the way it is
All your smiles and your all your lies won't
Oh, erase the pain inside, yeah
Hold your self and your serenity
'Cause I can see you this evening
And can't you see me, well?
That's the way, that's the way it is, yeah
That's the way, that's the way it is
That's the way, let me say that's the way it is
That's the way
And you must believe all the things I tell you
You won't believe all the words I say
Now one little thing in life I'm rest assured of
Heavenly father's gonna make a way in [Incomprehensible]
I will, yeah, I wanna clap my hands
Wanna clap my hands
Just you take your time
Just you take your time
Do you remember when we used to take our time?
You?d write me a letter baby and I?d wait for you all night

I wanna take a little time just to fall in love again
?Cause they?re tellin? me

After all these changes that you put me through
You stole my money and my cigarettes
And I haven't seen hide nor hair of you yet
I wanna know
Won't you tell me
Am I in love to stay?
Take me to the river
And wash me down
Won't you cleanse my soul
Put my feet on the ground
I don't know why she treated me so bad
Look at all those things that we could have had
Love is a notion that I can't forget
My sweet sixteen I will never regret
I wanna know
Won't you tell me
Am I in love to stay?
Hold me, love me, please me, tease me
Till I can't, till I can't take no more
Take me to the river
I don't know why I love you like I do
After all the things that you put me through
The sixteen candles burning on my wall
Turning me into the biggest fool of them all
I wanna know
Oh won't you tell me
Am I in love to stay?
I wanna know
Take me to the river
I wanna know
I want you to dip me in the water
I wanna know
Won't you wash me in the water
Wash me in the water
Wash me in the water
Won't you wash me in the water
Darling you must know that you are only mine
Not for just right now but all the time
Your sweet ways I cannot forget
Are the only things that you said on the day we met
This love I try to fight but I couldn't know love too long
And I knew the way that I was, I wouldn't be 'round too long
Your sweet ways I cannot forget
When I think about all the things you said
To help me through my days
Now I need you more desperately than I ever did
All the things we've done, all the things you say
Just drives me outta my head
So baby, please, please, won't you stay with me forever?
I want you to stay with me, baby, yeah
Please, please, won't you stay with me forever?
Please take my love, that's all I have to give
Just right now you're giving me a reason to live
Help me understand what I feel is real
For no love has meant this much to me
In the past couple of years
And if you let me there is nothin' I wouldn't do for you
And if you trust me with your love
Then I will make your dreams come true
So baby, please, please, won't you stay with me forever?
I just want you to stay a while with me, baby
Please, please, won't you stay with me forever?
C'mon and stay
Oh, c'mon take me by the hand, oh

But it's rainin' in my heart
I don't know when life begins
I sure don't know when life might end, oh baby
I've keep looking at the sun
But it's rainin' in my heart, oh baby
(Rainin', rainin' in my heart)
Even though what's said or done
My love for you is eternal one
But how can I say bye with a love so deep
It seems like it's rainin' all over me
I can't understand for the love of me
Why can't it be like it used to be
Stop the rain, stop the rain
Rainin' in my heart
Seems like it was only yesterday
We're so in love, so in love just pays
I've keep looking at the sun
Somehow it keeps rainin' in my heart
Keep rainin', keep rainin', keep rainin'
Even though what's said or done
My love for you is an eternal one
But how can I say bye with a love so deep
I keep praying and it keeps rainin'
Somebody stop the rain
Yeah, now somebody stop the rain, rain, yeah
Somebody to see me
Somebody stop the rain, oh yeah
'Cause it seems like, seems like
Seems like it's gonna keep rainin'
It keeps on rainin', it keeps on rainin'

Thinking that you were gone
Leaving me on my own
And you, you was there
In some other's arms
Giving away all my charms
And when I awake

Filling my life with cheer
And when I come back
You won't be alone
'Cause I'll be at home

Dreams in my arms
Nearer, nearer
The minister was preaching
And the crowd was standing near
The congregation sang in a tune
In the hall, it was loud and clear
All of the crowd that stood all around him
They were crying as I could plainly see
Oh, the songs that they sang was so touching
They were singing to my God to Thee
Nearer my God to thee
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee
Kept on singing
Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee
Sometimes, I like to be in company
But when I get out, I like to stay out for long
Song is the only thing that can control me, Lord
When I know trouble, trouble's about to come
I fall down on my knees and call God late at night
And I know He'll make my, my burdens alright
I tell him, Lord, I have a desire to be
Nearer, nearer my God to Thee, Alleluia
Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee
Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee
I remember I was a little boy
Mother still used to [Incomprehensible]
I used to wonder what my mother was doing, have mercy, Lord
I stepped out one morning found mother all folded up
And mother had to rise up, she was looking towards the sky
And I saw the tears as they fell down my mothers eyes
And I can still hear the song mother was singing
Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee
Well, I fell beyond the blue
It's just you and me, baby
I, I don't know
Why I can't get over you
Every night it's true
My problem is you, yeah
Early this morning
You were on my mind
Trouble everywhere
But I'm, I'm fine, doin' just fine
That's true
My, my, my, my problem is you
A biggest problem, baby
(My problem is you)
Let me just say that
Every night it's true

Early this morning
You were on my mind
There's trouble everywhere
But I'm doin' just fine
Sure it's true, babe
I can't seem to get on with you
And my problem is you
Every night is through
My, my biggest problem seemed to be you
And this morning
You were on my mind
There maybe trouble everywhere
But I'm doin' just fine

Whatever you want to do
It's alright with me
'Cause you make me feel so brand new
I want to spend my life with you
Things just ain't the same, baby, since we've been together
Ooh, loving you forever

Let me be the one you come running to
I'll never be untrue
Ooh, baby, let's, let's stay together
Loving you whether, whether times are good or bad, happy or sad
Whether times are good or bad, happy or sad
Why somebody, why people break up?
Oh, turn around and make up
I just can't see
You'd never do that to me (Would you, baby?)
So to be around you is all I see
Is what I want us to
Let's, we ought to stay together
Loving you whether, whether times are good or bad, happy or sad
Let's, let's stay together
Loving you whether, whether times are good or bad, happy or sad

Oh, a shot rings out another Mother's child is fallen
Never will her life be the same

People trying to ease the pain
There was a time we could walk the street with some peace of mind (Yea)
Oh but this wicked shade our city
People saying it's a Pity
We all got a price to pay
Chorus
We got to leave the guns at home
We can't make in this world alone (ask anybody)
We got to leave the guns at home
We can't make in this world alone
We got to leave...
The time has come to play the game of violence
All around the world it's the same (same, same)
Why can't we see?
We all got to share the responsibility
We all the blame
There was a time we could walk the street with some peace of mind
Oh not today
We got to fight the fears that seize us
Make them a believe us
We all in this together
And we all got to take a stand
Chorus
We got to leave the guns at home
We can't make in this world alone
We got to leave the guns at home
Knowing we can't win this prize alone
The time is right
We all must lead the fight
To answer to somebody
Everything going change
The stake points in this game
We must love one another

Ain't things goin' right
Yeah it's all in a day's work
Call me
When you call me
You can call me when you're feelin' sad, baby
Ohh yeah
It's all in a day's work
Ah, you build me up, build me up and
Just to let me down, let me down and
Then you fill my cup, fill my cup and
Turn my love around, all around
Why do you take me where my love can't go?
Why do you make me love you more and more?
I don't have the Eiffel tower, silver or gold
But my love for you, and my love for you
Is the greatest story ever told
Don't have the Eiffel tower, anything might die
Well, I love you, um, love you and that will survive
Why do you have to start, have to start that
Just to break my heart, break my heart, oh?
Tear it all apart, all apart and
Then you let it stop, let it stop
I can't stand it, baby, you, you move me so
And my love gets started, it goes and goes and goes and
This is not a dream and what love ought to make
Sometimes you just can see [Incomprehensible]
Don't have the Eiffel Tower or silver or gold
But my love for you, and my love for you
Is worth more and more and more
I want to stay this time
I, oh, wanna make you mine
And now, yeah, want to stay this time, yeah
I wanna make you mine
Don't you know I want you? Don't feel bad
It's the best problem that I ever had
Don't you know your love, it could be mine
'Cause I really waited for a mighty long time
And I think it'll be alright
Another day, another day
And I think it'll be alright
Another day yeah
Don't you know this loving is not for free
Thinking someone else and I'm thinking about me
Oh, my baby, don't you go away, yeah
Saving my loving for another day
And I think it'll be alright
If you check with me tomorrow and I
And I think I'll be aright
Another day, another day
And I think got to give it little time now
Another day
And I think, everything will be alright
Maybe tomorrow, maybe tomorrow
And I think it'll be alright
Feels pretty good here
And I think soon will be alright
Another day, hey, hey
And I think, oh, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, hey, don't bother
And I think gonna be alright
Love me, love me, love
Put your arms around me
And I think
Hold me tight here tonight
Just right
And I think
Always and forever each moment with you
Is just like a dream to me that somehow came true
And I know tomorrow will still be the same
'Cause we've got a life of love that won't ever change
And everyday love me your own special way
Melt all my heart away with a smile, take time
To tell me you really care and we'll share tomorrow together
I'll always love you forever, forever
There'll always be sunshine when I look at you
Something I can't explain just the things that you do
And if you get lonely, phone me and take
A second to give to me that magic you make
And everyday love me your own special way
Melt all my heart away with a smile, take time
To tell me you really care and we'll share tomorrow together
I'll always love you forever, forever
Loving you is the thing that I plan for a very long time
Sometimes when I cry, I cry for you, baby
Sometimes well, I know, I'm over you, baby
Sometimes when I try so hard to bear
Well, I'll do my very best all the time
Do my very best all the time
Sometimes when I smile, hey, hey, I smile for you, baby
Sometimes when I'm down, I'm down for you, baby
Sometimes when I cry, so hard to bear
Well, I'll do my very best, try to save the rest all the time, oh yeah

All I need, all I need, all I need
All I need, all I need, all I need
We can work it out with no delay
We don?t have to fight nor take all day

All I need, all I need, all I need
All I need, all I need, all I need

Well, I'm trying Lord, to be full of Your conviction
Sometime temptation has its way
Will You hear my prayer, You don't owe me nothing
I need to feel You again and again, I hear You stray, yeah
When you think you stray too far
And you're afraid to ask once more
Remember child that you are mine
I'll hear your prayer and take you back again
Sometimes I stumble Lord and sometimes I fall
But all my questions Lord, You hear them all
Another day with You by my side
I have nothing to hide from You, You help me through
Come on, my
When you think you stray too far
And you're afraid to ask once more
Remember child that you are mine
I'll hear your prayer and take you back again
Oh, hey Lord, only want Your deliverance
Only time will tell it well
You make me feel, You make me
When you think you stray too far
And you're afraid to ask once more
Remember child that you are mine
I'll hear your prayer and take you back again
When you think you stray too far
And you're afraid to ask once more
Remember child that you are mine
I'll hear your prayer and take you back again
The lord is my shepherd I shall not want
Ohh, He making me lie down in green pastures
Ohh, He leadeth me beside the still waters, ohh
Ohh, He restoreth my soul
And He leads me in the path in righteousness
For his name's sake
Yea, though I walk through the valley
Of the shadow of death
I will not fear, thou art with me
Ohh, thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me
Ohh,Thou preparest a table before me
In the presence of my enemies
Thou anointest my head with oil
My cup runneth over
Surely goodness and mercy will follow me
Ohh, but [Incomprehensible] yea, my, my [Incomprehensible]
I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever
I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever
I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever, ohh, amen
Would you help me? Would you help me stay here?
Amen, why don't you have a seat? Amen

Oh, You blessed my soul with plenty of love
Gave me wings to fly above
Yes You did, yes You did, yeah
I love Your name, I love Your name
I love Your name, I love Your name
I love Your name, I love Your name
Whoa, I'm free, free
Well, you've taken everything we've got
Even the guitar and the band
They were makin' the right moves
Playin' in the blues like a light is at hand
Oh, get ready, ready for a one nite stand
(Get ready for a one nite stand
Get ready for a one nite stand)
'Coz my baby loves a one nite stand
So does all the fellows in the band, alright
Don't you wanna go
Well, you've taken a right notion
Enough to fill the world and the ocean
While we're driving in your car
No one knows who you are
Let me know who, big people in power
Oh, get ready, ready for a one nite stand
(Get ready for a one nite stand
Get ready for a one nite stand)
'Coz my baby loves a one nite stand
So does all the fellows in the band, alright
New York City, don't you wanna go, c'mon
Yeah sure, climb on
I started to write this song about you
And then I decided that I would write it all about love
And it appeared to me
That you wasn't happy
And that's for sure, positively
That's what the world is made of
So give me more L-O-V-E, love
Love is a walk down Main street (oh love)
Love is an apple that is so sweet (love)
Love is something that can't be beat (love)
L-O-V-E is strange to me, Oh
I can't explain this feeling
Can't you see that salvation is freeing
It's all in the heavens, can't you see
You can always depend on me
To give you love
Love is a flower in my soul (oh love)
Love is a story that just can't be told (love)
Can't you feel it burning more and more (love)
Stop and look at the big wheel roll
I can't explain this feeling
Can't you see that salvation is freeing
I would give my life for the glory
Just to be able to tell the story
About love
I didn't mean to make you mad
A sweet story, I thought I had
But maybe time will bring us together
And I can be such a happy fella
About love
Love is something that is so divine (oh love)
Love is a feeling that's a friend of mine (love)
It can't be measured by no sign (love)
In your heart or even in your mind
I'm so tired of being alone
I'm so tired of on-my-own
Won't you help me girl
Just as soon as you can?
People say that I've found a way
To make you say that you love me
Hey baby, you didn't go for that it's a natural fact
That I wanna come back show me where it's at, baby
I'm so tired of being alone
I'm so tired of on-my-own
Won't you help me girl
As soon as you can?
I guess you know that I, uh, I love you so
Even though you don't want me no more
Hey hey hey hey, and I'm cryin' tears all through the years
I'll tell ya like it is honey, love me if you will
Yeah baby
Tired of being alone here by myself, now
I tell ya, I'm tired baby
I'm tired of being all wrapped up late at night
In my dreams, nobody but you, baby
Sometimes I wonder
If you love me like you say you do
You see baby, I I I I've been thinkin' about it, yeah
I've been, I've been wantin' to get next to you baby
Ya see, sometimes I hold my arms, I say, oh
Oh baby, meeting you has proven to me
To be my greatest dream, yeah
I'm so tired of being alone
So tired of being alone
So tired of being alone
I'm so tired of being alone
So tired of being alone
So tired of being alone
I'm so tired of being alone
So tired of being alone
You get up early in the morning just to see her eyes
She's walking 'round the house in a complete disguise
I don't know just how to tell you, just how she changed so fast
But she's the prettiest thing in my life at last
I'm [Incomprehensible] a silver moon, baby
I can't stand to see you in my bedroom
I'm moving with
And I wanna dance with my sweet love sixteen
I can't believe the way you hold me
I can't believe the way you console me
Oh, I wanna dance with my sweet love sixteen
Oh, the fellows wanna just touch her or hold her hand real tight
But she is the prettiest thing out here tonight, gentlemen
If the dancing gets good to you, lay down in your shawl
You try to move your body, you might lose control, tell you one thing
I don't believe the way you hold me
The way you console me
Oh God, I wanna dance with
My sweet love sixteen, alright
Tell you what I'll do, just talk with
Tell what I'll do unless you walk with
I believe I'll let ya sing baby
VERSE 1:
Spending my day thinkin' 'bout you girl
Being here with you, being near with you
I can't explain myself
Why I feel like I do
Though it hurts me so to let you know that I
look in your eyes to let me know
How you feel
Let me know that love is really real
And it seems to me
that I'm wrapped up in your love
CHORUS:
Don't you know that I'm
(Still in love, in love with you)
Sho' 'nuff in love with you, hey
VERSE 2:
And I look in your eyes
And all the years I see

Sho' 'nuff in love with you
Hey, ah-ha, ah, ah, ah, ah
Hey, ah-ha
Don't you know that I'm
(Still in love, in love with you)
Sho' 'nuff in love with you
Say I try it if you want me to

Standing out here in the rain
Do you know my name?
Mister undo the pain and shame

And that's for sure, positively that's what the world is made of
So give me more L-O-V-E, love
Love is a walk down main street

Stop and look at the big wheel roll

I would give my life for the glory
Just to be able to tell the story about love
I didn't mean to make you mad
A sweet story, I thought I had
But maybe time will bring us together
And I can be such a happy fella about love
Love is something that is so divine
(Oh love)
Love is a feeling that's a friend of mine
(Love)
It can't be measured by no sign
(Love)
In your heart or even in your mind
About love
Love is as bright as the morning sun
You keep me cryin' all the time
I have to say that you
Keep me cryin' all the time
Well, I tried to play my music
But my music was too loud
Well, I pleased all the people
But I couldn't please the crowd
And I dropped down on my knees and said
Hey, mama won't you clear my head

You should have,
All of this world's desires,

Bounty and beautiful love
Chorus

And the birds soar real soon
You should have
All the things that you need
Give it everything
All the world to bring
If you believe in something
You go to give it everything

There's no life to take
Believers don't have to make haste

One thing about I can't explain
That you are the world to me
When you're sure you love me
Show you love tenderly
Chorus
Why should settle for second best
When you haven't tasted all the rest
Listen to me
Listen to my request
You should have all the things you want,
the things you need
All of the things your mind can conceive

Belle, the Lord and I've been friends for a mighty long time
Belle, leaving Him has never ever really crossed my mind
Let me say this one thing, I'd never go so far
'Cause it's Him no matter who you are
Belle, oh, it's you I want but it's Him that I need
I'd like to take a minute just to say now
Belle, the laughter of the sound has quieted down
Belle, the best thing we could do is have Him around
Let me say this one thing, I think if love could've found
My heart was lost but now it's found
Belle, oh, let's you and I let the love come down
I'm so happy, happy 'bout this, let me say this
Seems so easy to me, I've tried to act naturally
Let's not waste each other's time
Belle,oh, H's my surprisin', Lord is my joy, my joy, my joy
Belle, I know that you can understand
Little country boy, yes, a real country boy
Belle, He brought me safely thus far
Let me say lady, through many drunken country bars
Belle, oh, let me say, He's my bright mornin' star, hey
Belle, my bright mornin', He's my bright mornin'
He's my everything, my everything
A drink of water
Belle, I know you're all of these things, girl
But He's such a brighter joy, He's such a brighter
He, He, He, He, He
(Jesus is my)
(I have to let you to know that Jesus)
(My everything)
My everything
(Everything)
Everything
In the morning, in the evening
(Time, time, time)
In the daytime, in the nighttime, hey, hey
He's my everything, yeah
( Some times I feel so happy)
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
It's not warm when she's away
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And she's always gone too long
Anytime she goes away
I wonder this time where she's gone
I wonder how long she's gonna stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime she goes away
But ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Only darkness everyday
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime she goes away
And I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
I know when she's gone
He's always gone too long
Anytime she goes away
Anytime she goes away
Anytime she goes away
Anytime she goes away
There's an old friend
That I once heard say
Something that touched my heart
And it began this way
I was born by the river
In a little tent
And just like the river
I've been runnin' ever since
He said it's been a long time comin'
But I know my change is gonna come, oh yeah
He said it's been too hard livin'
But I'm afraid to die
I might not be if I knew what was up there
Beyond the sky
It's been a long, a long time comin'
But I know my change has got to come, oh yeah
I went, I went to my brother
And I asked him, "Brother
Could you help me, please?"
He said, "Good sister
I'd like to but I'm not able"
And when I, when I looked around
I was right back down
Down on my bended knees, yes I was, oh
There've been times that I thought
I thought that I wouldn't last for long
But somehow right now
I believe that I'm able, I'm able to carry on
I tell you that it's been a long
And oh it's been an uphill journey, all the way
But I know, I know, I know
I know my change is gonna come
Sometimes
I had to cry all night long, yes I did
Sometimes
I had to give up right, for what I knew was wrong
Yes it's been an uphill journey
It's sure's been a long way comin', yes it has
It's been real hard every step of the way
But I believe, I believe
This evenin' my change is come
