Baby I Need Your Lovin'

Baby I need your lovin'
Baby I need your lovin'

Although you're never near
Your voice I often hear
Another day, another night
I long to hold you tight
'Cause I'm so lonely
Baby, I need your lovin'
I got to have all your lovin'
Baby, I need your lovin'
Got to have all your lovin'

Some say it's a sign of weakness
For a man to beg
Then weak I'd rather be
If it means havin' you to keep
'Cause lately I've been losin' sleep

Baby, I need your lovin'
I got to have all your lovin'
Baby, I need your lovin'
Got to have all your lovin'

Empty nights
Echo your name
Sometimes I wonder
Will I ever be the same

Oh yeah, when you see me smile
You know
Things have gotten worse
Any smile you might see
Has all been rehearsed

Darlin', I can't go on without you
This emptiness won't let me live without you
This loneliness inside me darlin'
Makes me feel not alive, honey

Baby, I need your lovin'
I got to have all your lovin'
Baby, I need your lovin'
Got to have all your lovin'

Baby, I need your lovin'
I got to have all your lovin'
Baby, I need your lovin'
Got to have all your lovin'

Everyday People

Sometimes I'm right and I can be wrong
My own beliefs are in my song
The butcher, the thinker, the drummer and then
Makes no difference what group I'm in
I am everyday people, yeah

There is a blue one, who can't accept the green one
For living with a fat one, trying to be a skinny one
And different strokes for different folks
And so on and so on and scooby dooby doo
We got to live together

I am no better and neither are you
We are the same whatever we do
You love me, you hate me you load me and then
You can't figure out what bag I'm in
I am everyday people, yeah

There is a long hair, who doesn't like the short hair
For being such a rich one, that will not help the poor one
Different strokes for different folks
And so on and so on and scooby dooby doo
We got to live together

There is a yellow one, who doesn't like the black one
Who won't accept the red one, who won't accept the white one
Different strokes for different folks
And so on and so on and scooby dooby doo
I am everyday people

'Cause there is a blue one, who can't accept the green one
For living with the fat one, trying to be a skinny one
There is a long hair, who doesn't like the short hair
For being such a rich one, that doesn't help the poor one
I am everyday people

'Cause there is a yellow one, who don't accept the black one
Who won't accept the red one, who won't accept the white one
I am everyday people

For Your Love

All the gold in all the world
Is nothing to possess
If all the things that it can bring
Can't add up to one ounce of your happiness

And for your love
I would do anything
Just to see the smile upon your face
For your love
I would go anywhere
Just you tell me and I'll be right there

A diamond that shines
Like a star in the sky
Is nothing to behold
For miniscule is any light
If it can't like you brighten up my soul

And for your love
I would do anything
Just to see the smile upon your face
For your love
I would go anywhere
Just you tell me and I'll be right there

I could have never fathomed this
Such joy, love and tenderness
That you give to me
For the love I feel inside
It's so wonderful I can't hide
And I glow, I glow
With just the thought of you
I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do

And for your love
I would do anything
Just to see the smile upon your face
For your love
I would go anywhere
Just you tell me and I'll be right there

Don't Walk Away

Don't walk away
don't walk away
Not now that I'm inspired.
Oh won't you stay please
won't you stay

Come on girl
come around now.
Don't walk away
don't walk away

Not now that I'm inspired.
Oh won't you stay please
won't you stay

Your love it takes me higher.
You built me up
make me feel I was good enough to be your guy

Now you've changed your mind.
Girl couldn't decide if your love was all in my mind
But in my heart too - I believe in you.
Don't walk away
don't walk away
. . .
Don't let me down
promise me you'll be around

I'll take the lie - just say that you'll try girl.
Over the year I've cried twenty million tears

But in one day you washed them all away
yeah.
If I ever get another chance

I'm gonna get you really gonna love you.
We can start a new romance - say you'll be mine.
Don't you walk away
don't turn your back on me

Don't walk away girl
don't walk away girl

Don't you walk away
don't you walk away
hey girl

Listen to me girl
don't turn your back on me.
Now that you got me inspired
don't you walk away
don't you walk away
Don't walk away
don't walk away
. . .
Don't walk away
don't walk away

Not now you got me inspired.

Keeper Of The Castle

Live it down
There's a lot of us been pushed around
Red, yellow, black, white and brown
With a tear of their own
Can't you see
While you're pickin' on society
That the leaves on your family tree
Are callin' you to come home.

You're the keeper of the castle
So be a father to your children
The provider of all their daily needs
Like a sovereign lord protector
Be their destiny's director
And they'll do well to follow where you lead.

In your head
You don't believe what the good book said
You're gonna strike out now instead
'Cause the world's been unkind
Through thick and thin
Whatever shape your heart is in
You only have one next of kin
Better keep 'em in mind.

You're the keeper of the castle
So be a good man to your lady
The creator of the sunshine in her day
'Tend the garden that you seeded
Be a friend when a friend is needed
And you won't have to look the other way.

If I Were A Carpenter

We are friends, we are brothers
Always there lookin' out for each other
In a world where so many dreams are broken apart
But when the world tries to beat us
We hang tough, ain't no way they'll defeat us
You and I will always survive, together we're strong

Heart to heart
Any storm we can weather
You and I we've become
United forever

Two hearts that can beat as one
There ain't a single thing, we can't overcome
We're indestructible (indestructible)
We've got the power of love
So strong we can generate
A wall of solid love
Nothing can penetrate
We're indestructible

There's a power, deep inside us
Ain't no one that could ever divide us
We won't fall, we'll show 'em all
Just what we're made of

You and I
We're in it together
We stand strong through it all
United forever

Heart to heart
Any storm we can weather
You and I we've become
Untied forever

When She Was My Girl

She Used To Be
Everything To Me
When She Was My Girl
When She Was My Girl
I Held Her Near
Told Her How Much I Cared
When She Was My Girl
When She Was My Girl

When She Was My Girl
There Was Laughter And Loving In My World
Everyday
When She Was My Girl
Oh What Joy She Would Bring
Now I've Lost Everything
She's Gone, Gone, Gone, Gone, Gone

I Spend The Night
Dreaming How She Used To Be
When She Was My Girl
When She Was My Girl

When She Was My Girl
There Was Laughter And Loving In My World
Yes It Was
Cause She Was My Girl
Oh What Joy She Would Bring
Now I've Lost Everything
She's Gone, The Big Red Girl Has Gone

She Used To Be
Everything To Me
When She Was My Girl
When She Was My Girl

She, She, My Girl
She's So Foxy Cant You See
And This Girl Belongs To Me
She's My Girl
When We Walk Down The Street
I Would Tell Everyone We Meet
This Is My Girl

Its All In The Game

You're sweet as a honey bee
But like a honey bee stings
You've gone and left my heart in pain
All you left is our favorite song
The one we danced to all night long
It used to bring sweet memories
Of a tender love that used to be

Now it's the same old song
But with a different meaning
Since you been gone
It's the same old song
But with a different meaning
Since you been gone

A sentimental fool am I
to hear a old love song
And wanna cry
But the melody keeps haunting me
Reminding me how in love we used to be
Keep hearing the part that used to touch my heart
Saying together forever
Breaking up never

It's the same old song
But with a different meaning
Since you been gone
It's the same old song
But with a different meaning
Since you been gone

Precious memories keep a lingering on
Everytime I hear our favorite song
Now you're gone
Left this emptiness
I only reminisce
The happiness we spent
We used to dance on the music
Make romance through the music

It's the same old song
But with a different meaning
Since you been gone
It's the same old song
But with a different meaning
Since you been gone

It's the same old song
But with a different meaning
Since you been gone
It's the same old song
But with a different meaning
Since you been gone
