"If You Gotta Make A Fool Of Somebody"

"If You Gotta Make A Fool Of Somebody"



If you gotta make a fool of somebody
If you gotta make a fool of someone
Do you really have to hurt me
I'm the one that'll worry about you

If you gotta make a fool of somebody
If you gotta to make a fool of someone
Do you really have to hurt me
I'm the one that loves you, always true

Daytime, nighttime, anytime you call
I'll rush to your side, anytime you call
Just to be near you, you know
Anywhere I go, how could you hurt me so
Oh

If you gotta make a fool of somebody
If you gotta make a fool of someone
Do you really have to hurt me
I'm the one that'll worry about you

If you gotta make a fool of somebody
If you gotta make a fool of someone
If you gotta make a fool of somebody
And If you gotta make a fool of someone
If you got to make a fool of somebody
If you got to make a fool of someone

"If You Need My Love Tonight"

"If You Need My Love Tonight"



Inside my mind the hands of time rewind
To when you’re love was mine so magically
We shared a song and even though it’s gone
I can still recall the melody
Don’t be scared if you lie awake in the dark (I won’t be afraid, baby)
Cause I still truly care with all my heart

If you need my love tonight all you have to do is call me
And I’m always here when you need a friend
If you need my love tonight I promise to keep you from falling
And I’ll stay with you if you need my love tonight
Tonight, tonight, tonight

So soft and pure, your love was the cure
Then I felt lost and so alone
Now it’s my turn to give you what you yearn
Return the love that you have always shown
And what a joy if I could see you once again (oh, I see you tonight, baby)
I will treat you so right you’re my body and soul

If you need my love tonight all you have to do is call me
And I’m always here when you need a friend
If you need my love tonight I promise to keep you from falling
And I’ll stay with you if you need my love tonight
Oh, tonight, oooh, tonight I’ll be there, yeah, oooh

If you need my love tonight all you have to do is call me
And I’m always here when you need a friend (when you need a friend)
If you need my love tonight I promise to keep you from falling
And I’ll stay with you if you need my love tonight (I’ll stay with you late, with you baby)
If you need my love tonight all you have to do is call me
And I’m always here when you need a friend
Tonight

"In Case You Forgot"

"In Case You Forgot"



Something is wrong, baby
Is the feelin' gone, baby
Maybe I need to refresh your mind
Think about the love we shared
Think back to the time we cared
Maybe you can find a reason to be here

Oh...I'm the one who loved you, mmm
I'm the one who made it right
I'm the one who was there for you
On those cold and lonely nights

I'm the one who held you
When the world came down on you
And I'm the one who's in love with you
And whose love never stops

In case you forgot
I give love (Ooh) and my love is so good
In case you forgot
I was there when you fell 'cause I care

In case you forgot
I left you satisfied all those nights
In case you forgot
I give love and my love never stops (Oh...oh...)

Where did mine go (Where did it go)
I never shoulda really let you know
You're about to make a big mistake
Now where do you think you find a love at all like mine
Maybe all you're gonna find is heartache

Whoa...I'm the one who loved you
And I'm the one who made it right
I'm the one who was there for you
On those cold, cold and lonely nights

I'm the one who held you
When the world came down on you
And I am the one who was there for you
And whose love never stops

In case you forgot
I give love (Ooh) and my love is so good
In case you forgot
I was there when you fell 'cause I care

In case you forgot
I left you satisfied all those nights
In case you forgot
I give love and my love never stops

Where will you go to find someone to love you like I do
You can play anything, baby, 'cause you know that it's true
Sometimes a love like mine comes just once in your life
So you better, better take it, baby, and hold on tight

In case you forgot
I give love and my love is so good
In case you forgot
I was there when (You know it's true) you fell
'cause I care (I was there for you)

In case you forgot
I left you satisfied all those nights
In case you forgot
I give love and my love never stops

In case you forgot
In case you forgot
Remember me, hey, remember me, baby, baby
In case you forgot
I was there (I was there) when you fell 'cause I care (Oh...)

In case you forgot
I left you (I left you) satisfied all those nights
In case you forgot

"In The Morning"

"In The Morning"



Hear me baby,
Hear me, hear me, hear me, hear me, hear me
Hear me boy

Nobody knows me
Not like the way you know me
Nobody showed me
The ways of love
So now when you hold me
And promise you wont control me
My mama told me
To always be for sure

I wanna know
Will you love me
I wanna know
Will you care
In the morning

Oh I want you to treat me right
I don't want you to play with my mind
I don't want to be the other woman
I want us to matter and mean something
I want to be with you
But before I do

Will you love me

I want you to fill me
I'm ready and oh so willing
I'm willing to give you
Every part of me

I want you to touch and move me
You can consume me
Take all of me my love

I wanna know
If you'll love me

I wanna know
Will you care
In the morning

I want you to treat me right
Oh you cant, you cant, you cant, play with my mind
I don't want to be the other woman
No no no no no
I want us to matter and mean something
I want to be with you
But before I do
I want to know
Do we have an understanding
I've got to know
Are you giving or demanding
I cant give you no more
Cause I've poured out my soul
All for you
All for you
I got to know
Is there someone else you're loving
Tell me have you got another woman

Can we share our lives?

I wanna know will you love me
I wanna know will you care
In the morning

I don't want to be the other woman
I want us to matter and mean something
I want to be with you
But before I do

I wanna know will you love me
I wanna know will you care
In the morning

"It Ain't Necessarily So"

"It Ain't Necessarily So"



It ain't necessarily so
It ain't necessarily so
The things that you're liable
To read in the Bible
It ain't necessarily so

Now David was small but, oh my
Yes, David was small but, oh my
He fought big Goliath
Who lay, lay down and dieth
Yes, David was small
But, oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa my

You've ever heard 'bout Jonah?
He lived in a whale
You've ever heard 'bout Jonah?
He lived, lived in a whale
And he made his home in that fish's abdomen
Yes Jonah, he lived in a whale

To get into heaven
Don't snap for a seven
Live clean and don't have no fault
And take me, yeah, take that gospel
Whenever it's possible
But with a little grain of salt

Methuselah lived 900 years
Methuselah lived 9,900 years
But tell me who, who calls that living
When no gal is given to no man
What's 900 years?

That's why I say that it ain't
It ain't necessarily
It ain't, no, necessarily
It ain't, it ain't necessarily so

Ain't necessarily so
Ain't necessarily so
Ain't necessarily
Ain't necessarily
Ain't necessarily

"It Hurts Like Hell"

"It Hurts Like Hell"



Oh baby
Ohhhhh
Oh baby
Ohhhhh
Oh babe

Love was always supposed to be
Something wonderful to me
To watch it grow inside yourself
To feel your heart beside itself
Sometimes it hurts to love so bad
(When you know you've given all you can)
Sometimes it hurts to even laugh
(You do your best but it's still much too bad)
Sometimes the pain is just too much
And it hurts like hell
That's the way it feels
True love
It has no hiding place
It's not something you just put away
It's always there inside of you
Ohhh, and it shows in everything you do
Sometimes it hurts to love so bad
(When you know you've given it your best)
Sometimes it hurts to even laugh
(You feel a thousand miles from happiness)
Sometimes the pain is just too much
And it hurts like hell
That's the way it feels
Here we are, the two of us
So full of love, so little trust
But dying for some tenderness
Ooohhh, but too afraid to take the step
Sometimes it hurts to love so bad
(When you know what it can put you through)
Sometimes it hurts to even laugh
(There's nothing funny if it's killing you)
Sometimes the pain is just too much
And it hurts like hell
That's the way it feels
I know if there is any chance
For us to find our happiness
We've got to learn to let it go
Ohhh oh, forget all the pain we knew
Sometimes it hurts to love so bad
Sometimes it hurts it hurts to even laugh
And it hurts like hell
That's the way
Oh baby
That's the way it feels

"It's Just A Matter Of Time"

"It's Just A Matter Of Time"



Someday, Someway You'll realize that you've been blind
Yes Darling, you're going to need me again
It's just a matter of time
Go on, go on Til you reach the end of the line
Cause I know you'll pass my way again
It's just a matter of time
After I gave you everything I had
You laughed and you called me a clown
Remember in your search for fortune and fame
What goes up must come down
I know, I know That one day you'll wake up and find
That my love is a true love
It's just a matter of time

Words are spoken with chords played
Someday and Someway
Girl you'll realize that you've been blind
Yes Darling, I know you gonna need me again
It's just a matter of time

After I gave you everything I had
You laughed and you called me a clown
But remember in your search for fortune and fame
What goes up must come down
I know, I know That one day you'll wake up and find
That my love was a true love
It's just a matter of time

"It's My Turn"
(originally by Diana Ross)

"It's My Turn"
(originally by Diana Ross)



I can't cover up my feelings
In the name of love
Or play it safe
For a while that was easy
And if living for myself
Is what I'm guilty of
Go on and sentence me
I'll still be free

It's my turn
To see what I can see
I hope you'll understand
This time's just for me

Because it's my turn
With no apologies
I've given up the truth
To those I've tried to please

But now it's my turn
If I don't have all the answers
At least I know I'll take my share of chances
Ain't no use in holding on
When nothing stays the same

So I'll let it rain
'Cause the rain ain't gonna hurt me
And I'll let you go
'Though I know it won't be easy

It's my turn
With no more room for lies
FOR YEARS I'VE SEEN MY LIFE
Through someone else's eyes

And now it's my turn
To try and find my way
And if I should get lost
At least I'll own today

It's my turn
Yes, it's my turn
And there ain't no use in holding of
When nothing stays the same

So I'll let it rain
'Cause the rain ain't gonna hurt me
And I'll let you go
'Though I know it won't be easy

It's my turn
To see what I can see
I hope you'll understand
This time's just for me

Because it's my turn
To turn and say goodbye
I sure would like to know
That you're still on my side

Because it's my turn
It's my turn

It's my turn
To start from number one
Trying to undo
Some damage that's been done

But now it's my turn
To reach and touch the sky
No one's gonna say
At least I didn't try

It's my turn
Yes, it's my turn
It's my turn
It's my turn
It's my turn
