The Isley Brothers (/ˈaɪzliː/) are an American musical group originally from Cincinnati, Ohio, originally a vocal trio consisting of brothers O'Kelly Isley, Jr., Rudolph Isley and Ronald Isley. The group has been cited as having enjoyed one of the "longest, most influential, and most diverse careers in the pantheon of popular music".
Alongside a fourth brother, Vernon, the group originally performed gospel music until Vernon's death a few years after its original formation. After moving to the New York City area in the late 1950s, the group had modest chart successes during their early years, first coming to prominence in 1959 with their fourth single, "Shout", written by the three brothers. Initially a modest charted single, the song eventually sold over a million copies. Afterwards the group recorded modestly successful works for a variety of labels, including the top 20 single, "Twist and Shout" and the Motown single, "This Old Heart of Mine (Is Weak for You)" before recording and issuing the Grammy Award-winning hit, "It's Your Thing" on their own label, T-Neck Records.

Yeah
Well, well, well
Yeah...hey...
Yeah
Hey...hey...
Driftin’ on a memory
Ain’t no place I’d rather be
Than with you, yeah
Lovin’ you, well, well, well
Day will make a way for night
All we’ll need is candlelight
And a song, yeah
Soft and long, well, ooh
Glad to be
Here alone with a lover unlike no other
Sad to see
A new horizon slowly comin’ into view, yeah
I wanna be livin’
For the love of you, oh, yes, I am
All that I’m givin’
Is for the love of you, alright now, ooh
Lovely as a ray of sun
That touches me when the mornin’ comes
Feels good to me, yeah
My love and me, well
Smoother than a gentle breeze
Flowin’ through my mind with ease
Soft as can be, well
When you’re lovin’ me, when you’re lovin’ me, ooh
Love to be
Ridin’ the waves of your love, enchanted with your touch
And it seems to me
We could sail together in and out of mystery, well
I wanna be livin’
For the love of you, alright now
All that I’m givin’
Is for the love of you, you got me, girl
I wanna be livin’
For the love of you, alright now
All that I’m givin’, givin’
Is for the love of you, oh, yes, I am
Paradise I have within
Can’t feel insecure again
You’re the key, well
And this I see, for I see
Now and then I lose my way
Confusin’ words to try and say
What I feel, yeah
Love is real, oh, love is real, ooh
I might as well
Sign my name on a card which could say it better
Time will tell
‘Cause it seems that I’ve done just about all that I can do
I know that I’m livin’
For the love of you, oh, yes, I am
I know that I’m livin’
For the love, love of you
Every, every day I’m livin’
For love of you
I’m livin’ for the love
Each and every day
I’m, oh, whoa, I’m, oh, yes, I am
I wanna say it one more time
Said I’m livin’
For the love
Each and every day I’m, oh, whoa, I’m
Lord knows I am
Right that there
Said I’m livin’
For the love, love of you
