1.Baby I Need Your Loving Single Version(Mono)

Lyricist:Brian Holland/Edward Holland Jr./Lamont Dozier
Writer(s):Brian Holland/Edward Holland Jr./Lamont Dozier

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

Empty nights echo your name
Whoa, 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 half alive

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

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

3.Without The One You Love(Life's Not Worthwhile) Single Version(Mono)


Lyricist:Brian Holland/Lamont Dozier/Edward Holland Jr.
Writer(s):Brian Holland/Lamont Dozier/Edward Holland Jr.

Baby, I need your good lovin'
Got to have your love right now, baby
So come and fill my empty arms
And make my life worthwhile

Because I'm not livin', baby
I only exist
I'll never laugh, I'll never smile no more
I don't care if I stay like this, because

Without the one you love, life is not worthwhile
Without your love, my dear, I'm like a motherless child
So come and fill my empty arms
And make my life worthwhile

When I feel that old hurt comin' on
I stop and cry like I'm cryin' (Right now)
People ask why would a grown man cry
I drop my head, and I sadly reply

Without the one you love, life is not worthwhile
Without your love, my dear, oh, I'm like a motherless child
So come and fill my empty arms
And make my life worthwhile

(Baby, I need your good lovin')
Sometimes I feel like the wanderer
(Got to have your love right now)
Searching for peace within
(Baby, I need your good lovin')
I need you, my darling
(Got to have your love right now)
Like a lost soul needs a friend

So come and fill my empty arms
Ooh, and fill my empty life

(Baby, I need your good lovin')
Nobody knows the emptiness I feel
(Got to have your love right now)
That I'm feelin'
(Baby, I need your good lovin')
Nobody knows the loneliness I feel
(Got to have your love right now)
And I feel it 'cause

Without the one you love, oh, life ain't worthwhile
Without your love, my dear, oh, I'm like a motherless child
So come and fill my empty arms
And make my life worthwhile

Because without the one you love, oh, life is not worthwhile,
no, no
Without the one you love, life ain't worthwhile

5.Ask The Lonely Extended Single Version(Mono)

Lyricist:Ivy Joe Hunter/William Mickey Stevenson
Writer(s):Ivy Joe Hunter/William Mickey Stevenson

Just ask the lonely

When you feel that need
To make it all alone,
Remember no one is thinking of,
Going alone

Just ask the lonely...
They know the hurt and pain,
Of losing a love, you can never regain

Just ask the lonely
Just ask the lonely

The young and foolish laugh at love
Woo-hoo
So they run away...
Woo-hoo hoo hoo
Confident and sure that fate
Woo-hoo
Will bring another love their way

Aaah
But ask the lonely....
Aaah
How vainly a heart can yearn,
Aaah
For losing a love that will never return

Just ask the lonely
Just ask the lonely....
They'll tell you

Ooooh, Woo-hoo hoo-hoo
Ooooooh

Aaah
Aaah
A story too hard to believe...
Aaah
They'll tell you the loneliest one is me

Just ask the lonely
Just ask the lonely

Ask me...
I'm the loneliest one you'll see

Just ask the lonely

Ooh, sugar pie, honey bunch
You know that I love you

I love you and nobody else

In and out my life (In and out my life)
You come and you go (You come and you go)
Leaving just your picture behind (Ooh)
And I've kissed it a thousand times (Ooh)

When you snap your finger or wink your eye
I come a-running to you
I'm tied to your apron strings
And there's nothing that I can do, ooh

I can't help myself
No, I can't help myself

'Cause sugar pie, honey bunch (Sugar pie, honey bunch)
I'm weaker than a man should be
I can't help myself
I'm a fool in love, you see

Wanna tell you I don't love you
Tell you that we're through and I try
But every time I see your face (Can't help myself)
I get all choked up inside

When I call your name
Girl, it starts to flame (Burning in my heart, tearing it all
apart)
No matter how I try
My love I cannot hide

'Cause sugar pie, honey bunch (Sugar pie, honey bunch)
You know that I'm waiting for you (Waiting for you)
I can't help myself
I love you and nobody else, ooh

Sugar pie, honey bunch (Sugar pie, honey bunch)

I want you and nobody else, ooh

Sugar pie, honey bunch (Sugar pie, honey bunch)
You know that I love you (Love you)
I can't help myself
No, I can't help myself, ooh

Sugar pie, honey bunch (Sugar pie, honey bunch)
You know that I love you

10.It's The Same Old Song Single Version(Mono)

Lyricist:Brian Holland/Lamont Dozier/Edward Holland Jr.
Writer(s):Brian Holland/Lamont Dozier/Edward Holland Jr.

You're sweet (you're sweet) as a honeybee
But like a honeybee stings
You've gone and left my heart in pain
All you left (all you left) is our favorite song
The one we danced to all night long
It used to bring sweet memories (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, same old song
But with a different meaning (Since you been gone)
And it breaks me up to hear it

Ah, oh, ah, sentimental fool am I (Sweet memories)
To hear a old love song and want to cry
But the melody keeps haunting me
Reminding me how in love we used to be
Keep hearing the part that used to touch our hearts
Staying (Together forever)
Darling (Breaking up never)

(Now it's the same old song) Can't bear to hear it
(With a different meaning since you been gone)
Oh, it hurts to hear it
It's the same old song
But with a different meaning since you been gone

Precious memories keep a-lingering on
Every time I hear our favorite song
Now you've gone
Left this emptiness
I only reminisce the happiness we spent
We used to dance to the music (We used to dance to the music)
Make romance to the music (Make romance to the music)

Now it's the same old song
But with a different meaning since you been gone
Now it's the same old song
But with a different meaning since you been gone
I, oh, I can't bear to hear it
It's the same old song
(But with a different meaning since you been gone)
Ooh, it breaks me up to hear it)
It's the same old song
But with a different meaning

Lyricist:Brian Holland/Lamont Dozier/Edward Holland Jr.
Writer(s):Brian Holland/Lamont Dozier/Edward Holland Jr.

Darlin', darlin'
If I could have you to call my very own
I work my fingers through the bone, I am alone
To you I'd always come home

'Cause there's something about you, baby
That makes me keep loving you
There's something about you, baby
Makes me love you just a little bit more
Truly does, just a little bit more

Sweet sweet thing, I'm satisfied
Sweet sweet thing, you set my soul on fire
I need you, yeah, badly
No matter what price I have to pay
'Cause without you, darlin', I'd worry hard
I love you anyway

'Cause there's something about you, baby
That makes me keep loving you
There's something about you, baby
Makes me love you just a little bit more
Truly does, just a little bit more

Sweet sweet thing, I'm satisfied
Sweet sweet thing, you're my only desire

I'm just your puppet on a string
And tears sometimes it brings
But do me any way you wanna when you wanna
I'll keep you just the same

'Cause there's something about you, baby
That makes me keep loving you
There's something about you, baby
Makes me love you just a little bit more
Truly does, just a little bit more

You're a real heartbreaker
You will never let me sit down
There's something about you, baby
That shakes me all up inside
You're a real heartbreaker
And I need you just the same...

15.Shake Me, Wake Me(When It's Over) Single Version(Mono)

Lyricist:Brian Holland/Lamont Dozier/Edward Holland Jr.
Writer(s):Brian Holland/Lamont Dozier/Edward Holland Jr.

All through this long and sleepless night
I hear my neighbors talking, 'She don't love him'
Saying that out of my life
Into another's arms, you'll soon be walking

Somebody shake me
Wake me, when it's over, when it's over
Somebody tell me that I'm dreamin'
And wake me when it's over, when it's over

They say our love ain't what it used to be
And everyone knows but me
I close my ears not wanting to hear
But the words are loud and clear

Through these walls so thin, I hear my neighbors when
They say, 'She don't love him, she don't love him'
They say my heart's in danger
'Cause you're leaving me for the love of a stranger

Somebody shake me
Wake me somebody when it's over, when it's over
And tell me that I'm dreamin'
And wake me when it's over, when it's over

Girl, you're what my heart desires
My whole world you inspire
I can't bear to be losing you
'Cause I've loved you my whole life through

Restlessly, I pace the floor
Listening to my neighbors criticize
What a fool I am not to realize
You don't want me by your side

As the tears stream down my face
I can't believe, I've been replaced
If I've ever ever dreamed before
Somebody tell me, I'm dreaming now

I said, shake me
Wake me somebody when it's over, when it's over
Somebody tell me that I'm dreaming
And wake me when it's over, when it's over
Come on and shake me, wake me somebody
When it's over

You're not in love now, now you're afraid (you're afraid)
And through your tears you look around (look around)

(Reach out) Come on girl reach out for me
Reach out, just look over your shoulder

And I'll be there you can always depend on me
I'll be there

Lyricist:Brian Holland/Lamont Dozier/Edward Holland Jr.
Writer(s):Brian Holland/Lamont Dozier/Edward Holland Jr.

I'd run but there's no where to go
'Cause heartaches will follow me I know
Without your love, the love I need
It's the beginning of the end for me

'Cause you've taken away all me reasons for livin'
When you pushed aside all the love I've been giving
Now wait a minute

Didn't I teach you right, didn't I?
Didn't I do the best I could, didn't I?
So don't you leave me

Standin' in the shadow of love
I'm gettin' ready for the heartaches to come
Don't you see me standing in the shadow of love
Just tryin' my best to get ready for the heartaches to come

All alone I'll desperately be
With misery my only company
Come today, in fact come tomorrow

Sorrow, I ain't got nothin' but sorrow
Don't your conscience bother you
How can you watch me cry after all I've done for you
Now hold a minute

Gave you all the love I had, didn't I?
When you needed me I was there, now wasn't I?
(Standing in the shadows of love
Gettin' ready for the heartaches to come)
I've tried not to cry out loud
No gal you ain't gonna help me now
What did I do to cause all this grief
Now what'd I say to make you want to leave
Now wait a minute
I gave my heart and soul to you, didn't I?
Now didn't I always treat you good, didn't I?
I'm Standing in the shadows of love
I'm gettin' ready for the heartaches to come
Hope to see you standing in the shadows of love
Tryin' my best to get ready for the heartaches to come
Standing in the shadows of...

23.Bernadette Single Version(Mono )

Lyricist:Lamont Dozier/Brian Holland/Edward Holland Jr.
Writer(s):Lamont Dozier/Brian Holland/Edward Holland Jr.

Bernadette, people are searchin' for
the kind of love that we possess.
Some go on searchin' their whole life through
and never find the love I've found in you.

And when I speak of you I see envy in other men's eyes,
and I'm well aware of what's on their minds.
They pretend to be my friend, when all the time
they long to persuade you from my side.
They'd give the world and all they own
for just one moment we have known.

Bernadette, they want you because of the pride that gives,
But Bernadette, I want you because I need you to live.
But while I live only to hold you,
Some other men, they long to control you.
But how can they control you Bernadette,
when they can not control themselves, Bernadette,
from wanting you, needing you,
But darling you belong to me.

I'll tell the world, you belong to me,
I'll tell the world, you're the soul of me,
I'll tell the world, you're a part of me, Bernadette.

In your arms I find the kind of peace of mind
the world is searching for,
But you, you give me the joy this heart of mine
has always been longing for.

In you I have what other men long for.
All men need someone to worship and adore,
that's why I treasure you and place you high above,
for the only joy in life is to be loved.
So whatever you do, Bernadette, keep on loving me,
Bernadette, keep on needing me,
Bernadette.

Bernadette.
You're the soul of me,
more than a dream, your a plan to me.
And Bernadette, you mean more to me,
than a woman was ever meant to be.

25.7-Rooms Of Gloom Single Version(Mono)

Lyricist:Brian Holland/Lamont Dozier/Edward Holland Jr.
Writer(s):Brian Holland/Lamont Dozier/Edward Holland Jr.

(Seven rooms) I see a house
A house of stone
(Filled with gloom) A lonely house
'Cause now you've gone
(Just seven rooms of gloom) Seven rooms, that's all it is
Seven rooms of gloom
(Filled with emptiness) I live with emptiness
Without your tenderness

You took the dream I had for us
Turned my dreams into dust
I watch a phone that never rings
I watch a door that never rings
Bring you back into my life
Turn this darkness into light
I'm all alone in this house
Turn this house to a home

I need your touch to comfort me
Your tender, tender arms that once held me

(Seven rooms) Without your love
Your love inside
{Filled with gloom) This house is just a place
To run and hide
(Just seven rooms of gloom) Seven rooms, that's all it is
Seven rooms of gloom
(Filled with emptiness) Rooms of emptiness
Without your tenderness

Don't make me live from day to day
Watching a clock that ticks away
Another day, another way
Another reason for me to stay
I need you here, here with me
I need you, darling, desperately
I'm all alone, all alone
In this house that's not a home

I miss your love I once had known
I miss your kiss that was my very, very own

(Seven rooms) Empty silence
Surrounding me
(Filled with gloom) Lonely walls
They stare at me
(Just seven rooms of gloom) Seven rooms, that's all it is
Rooms of gloom
(Filled with emptiness) I live with emptiness
Without your tenderness

All the windows are painted black
And wait right here till you come back
I'll keep waiting, waiting
Till your face again I see

(Coming back
When are you coming back?)


26.I'll Turn To Stone Single Version(Mono)

Lyricist:Edward Holland/Brian Holland/R. Dean Taylor/Lamont Dozier
Writer(s):Edward Holland/Brian Holland/R. Dean Taylor/Lamont Dozier

If you take your love from me,
I'll turn to stone, turn to stone.
If your love I couldn't call my own,
I'll turn to stone, turn to stone.

I need your love in every way.
Your love I cling to
When things slip away.
Without your love
I'll be lost and alone.
No reason for living
All purpose would be gone.
Without you there
For my eyes to behold
My life would be empty
My heart would grow cold.

If you take your love from me,
I'll turn to stone, turn to stone.
If your love I couldn't call my own,
I'll turn to stone, turn to stone.

When I think of love,
I think of me and you.
When I think of happiness,
I think of us too.
You're my yesterdays
And all my tomorrows,
The air I breathe
Everything I need.
If from my life
You were ever gone,
I'd fall to pieces
You I depend on.

If you take your love from me,
I'll turn to stone, turn to stone.
If your love I couldn't call my own,
I'll turn to stone, turn to stone.

Darling without you
I'll go on searching
With a lonely heart
That won't stop hurting.
Sorrow would be written
On my face
All my tears
Would leave its trace.
I would be like a statue in a park
Cold and alone,
A man without a heart.

If you take your love from me,
I'll turn to stone, turn to stone.
If your love I couldn't call my own,
I'll turn to stone, turn to stone.

Turn to stone, turn to stone
Just turn to stone, I'll turn to stone.
If your love I couldn't call my own.
I'll turn to stone, just turn to stone,
I'll turn to stone, turn to stone...


27.You Keep Running Away Single Version(Mono)

Lyricist:Edward Holland Jr./Lamont Dozier/Brian Holland
Writer(s):Edward Holland Jr./Lamont Dozier/Brian Holland

You keep running away
You come back to me
But still you won't stay
Darlin you keep running away
Tear my heart apart every step of the way
You're here today and gone tomorrow
Leave this heart of mine in sorrow
Then you come around every now and then
Long enough to hurt me then you're gone again
Darlin you keep running away
Well I begged you not to leave but you never stay
Now you, you keep running away
Leavin me here to face another lonely day
To you all of this is just a game
Well each time you leave I feel the pain
But I've got so much love for you
I keep wanting you no matter what you do
All I want to do is take care of you
Everything I have in my life
I will share with you
This soul of mine has been processed by you
Darling my heart has been obsessed with you
Just look at me
I'm not the man I used to be
I used to be proud
I used to be strong
But all of that's changed girl
Since you come along
Your lovin sweetness
Is my weakness
Boy I need you dear
I just can't keep you near
Each time you go the hurt comes callin
My days become nights, darlin
My nights become so much longer
You're in my life, you're in my heart
But I can't get you
Get you into my arms
Darlin, you keep runnin away

Lyricist:Tony Sansome/Bob Calilli/Michael Brown
Writer(s):Tony Sansome/Bob Calilli/Michael Brown

And when I see the sign that points one way
The lot we used to pass by every day

Just walk away, Renee
You won't see me follow you back home
The empty sidewalks on my block are not the same
You're not to blame

From deep inside the tears
I'm forced to cry
From deep inside the pain
That I chose to hide

Just walk away, Renee
You won't see me follow you back home
Now as the rain burns down upon my weary eyes
For me it cries

Just walk away, Renee
You won't see me follow you back home
Now as the rain burns down upon my weary eyes
For me it cries

Your name and mine inside
A heart on a wall
Still finds a way to haunt me
Though they're so small

Just walk away, Renee
You won't see me follow you back home
The empty sidewalks on my block are not the same
You're not to blame

31.If I Were A Carpenter Single Version(Mono)

Lyricist:Tim Hardin
Writer(s):Tim Hardin

If I were a carpenter
And you were a lady
Now would you marry me anyway?
Would you have my baby?

If I take on a tinkers trade,
Would you still find me?
Oh carryin' the pots I made
Followin' closer behind me

Save my love through lonliness
Save my love for sorrow,
Cause I have given you my ownliness,
Give me part of your tomorrow

If I work my hands in wood
Would you still love me?
Ah, answer me babe, yes I would
I'd raise you high above me

If I was a miller at a mill wheel grindin'
Now would you miss your color box?
& your soft shoes shining?

If I were a carpenter & you were a lady
Girl, would you marry me anyway?
I want you have my baby

If I were a carpenter & you were a lady
Now would you marry me anyway?
Won't you have my baby?

33.Yesterday's Dreams Single Version(Mono)

Lyricist:Jack Alan Goga/Ivy Joe Hunter/Pamela Sawyer/Vernon Bullock
Writer(s):Jack Alan Goga/Ivy Joe Hunter/Pamela Sawyer/Vernon Bullock

Yesterday's dreams today are sorrow
Just like your love, girl, fading away
Yesterday's love won't last till tomorrow
I know you're leaving, but what can I say?
Oh (oh) wish that I could find a way
To make you stay; I've got to prove to you
That I love you, I need you, oh how I need you
Don't go (don't go) don't go (don't go)
If you go, don't you know
You're gonna leave me with...

Yesterday's dreams though gone & behind us
They're lonely reminders of plans that we made
Yesterday's plans today gone forever
But they're locked here inside me & they never will fade
Although (although) you may go, time will show me
Dreamin' still, & I always will
'Cause I love you, I need you, oh how I need you
Don't you go (don't go) don't you leave me, baby (don't go)
Baby don't you leave me (don't go) please don't leave me
(Don't go) here with yesterday's dreams

Although (although) you may go, time will show me
Dreamin' still, & I always will
Yesterday's dreams are a small pile of ashes
With one burning hope that hangs on

35.I'm In A Different World Extended Single Version(Mono)

Lyricist:Eddie Holland/Brian Holland/Lamont Dozier
Writer(s):Eddie Holland/Brian Holland/Lamont Dozier

In this world of ups and downs
My dreams all fall through
Things just don't work out
No matter what I do

Disappointment haunts me
Through each lonely day
The world around I see
In only shades of gray

But when the love light shines upon my face
I'm in a different world
A world I never knew
I'm in a different world
A world so sweet and true
I'm in a different world

I'm no longer just another face
In a crowd
Hey, look into my eyes
You'll see I'm strong and I'm proud

You are all the sweetness
Of my life, you see
You have brought heaven
Right here on earth to me

No man of wealth
I know I'll ever be
But I'll be satisfied
Just knowing you love me

On the stage of life
I've played a loser's part
It seems like I've been down
Right from the very start

Every time I lift myself
Up off the ground
Something always happens
To bring the curtain down

But when your love light shines upon my face
I'm in a different world
A world so warm and sweet
I'm in a different world
Now that you've been loving me
I'm in a different world

Each time you speak my name
Or put your hand in mine
The empty life I knew
I leave it far behind

'Cause you gave me the love
That I truly felt
Most of all, you made me
Believe in myself

You're more than a love to me
You're my way of life
I'll forever cherish you
More each day and night

Ah
I'm in a different world

A world that's warm, a world that's sweet
A world that's every bit complete
A world that's real, you've made me see
All the beauty surrounding me

Ah, look what you've done for me
Ah, look what you've done for me

I'm in a different world
Now that you've been loving me
I'm in a different world
And that's where I want to be

I'm in a different world
Now that you've been loving me
I'm in a different world
And that's where I want to be

I'm in a different world
Now that you've been loving me

I'm in a different world
Now that you've been loving me
I'm in a different world
And that's where I want to be

But it's all in the game
All in the wonderful game
That we know as love

You have words with him
And your future's looking dim
But these things
Your hearts can rise above

Once in a while he will call
But it's all in the game
Soon he'll be there at your side
With a sweet bouquet

And he'll kiss your lips
And caress your waiting fingertips
And your hearts will fly
Away

(Soon he'll be there at your side)
With a sweet bouquet
Then he'll kiss your lips
And caress your waiting fingertips
And your hearts will fly
Away

54.Macarthur Park Part 2(Mono)

Lyricist:Jimmy Webb
Writer(s):Jimmy Webb

Spring was never waiting for us, girl
It ran one step ahead
As we followed in the dance
Between the parted pages and were pressed
In love's hot, fevered iron
Like a striped pair of pants

MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet green icing flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
'Cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never have that recipe again
Oh, no

I recall the yellow cotton dress
Foaming like a wave
On the ground around your knees
The birds, like tender babies in your hands
And the old men playing checkers
By the trees

MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet green icing flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
'Cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never have the recipe again
Oh, no

There will be another song for me
For I will sing it
There will be another dream for me
Someone will bring it
I will drink the wine while it is warm
And never let you catch me looking at the sun
And after all the loves of my life
After all the loves of my life
You'll still be the one

I will take my life into my hands
And I will use it
I will win the worship in their eyes
And I will lose it
I will have the things that I desire
And my passion flow like rivers through the sky
And after all the loves of my life
Oh, after all the loves of my life
I'll be thinking of you
And wondering why

MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet green icing flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
'Cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never have that recipe again
Oh, no
Oh, no

No, no
Oh, no

Baby, don't fight it
I'm comin' baby

Do you know how long I'm dreamin'
Of a reason it grows?
You may ask me all these questions
But darling, no one knows

It should be clear, I really love you
Don't ask me why, I just do
Do you ask the Lord who loves you
Why He makes the sky clear blue?

It's the way, it's the way nature planned it
We were meant, we were meant to stay together
It's the way, it's the way nature planned it

Oh, don't ask me how long I'll love you
When you're gone, my heart aches
I'll never, never leave you
Girl, all my life, for you I'd wait 'cause it's the way

It's the way, it's the way nature planned it
We were meant, we were meant to stay together
It's the way, it's the way nature planned it

Don't fight it, baby
I'm coming, girl

It should be clear, I really love you
Don't ask me why, I just do 'cause it's the way
It's the way, it's the way nature planned it
Like the stars and the sky and the beautiful heaven

It's the way, it's the way nature planned it
We were meant, we were meant to stay together

Why does a flower grow?
It's the way, it's the way nature planned it
Why does the river flow?
It's the way, it's the way nature planned it

We were meant, we were meant
We were meant, we were meant to stay together

Why does it rain?
It's the way, it's the way nature planned it
Why do I feel this way?
It's the way, it's the way nature planned it

Writer(s):Jimmy Webb

Lyricist:Jimmy Webb

Girl, I can understand
How it might be kind of hard to love a guy like me
I don't blame you much for wanting to be free
I just wanted you to know

I've loved you better that your own kin did
From the very start, it's my own fault
For what happens to my heart, girl
You see I've always known you'd go

So you just do what you gotta do, my wild sweet love
Though it may mean I'll never kiss those sweet lips again
Pay that no mind, just chase that dappled dream of yours
Come on back, come on back, see me when you can
(Make it in a hurry)

Now I know they make you feel sad, make you feel kinda sad
Yeah, say you don't treat me, me like you should
They got ways, yeah, to make you feel no good
But they got no way to know

I've had my eyes wide open from the very start
And girl you've never lied to me
And the part they will never, never see
Is the part you've shown me

So you just do what you gotta do, my wild sweet love
Though it may mean I'll never kiss those sweet lips again
Pay that no mind, chase that dappled dream of yours
And come on back, come on back and see me when you can

Do what you, do what you gotta do, my wild sweet love
Though it may mean I'll never kiss those lips again
Oh, pay that no mind, chase that dappled dream of yours
Come on back, come on back, see me when you can

Now I know they make you feel sad, make you feel so bad
Say you don't treat me me like you should
They got ways to make you feel no good
I guess they got no way to know

I've had my eyes wide open from the start
Girl, you've never lied to me
But the part they will never see is the part that you've shown
me
Oh, is the part that you've shown me

Girl, I can understand
How it might be kind of hard to love a guy like me
I don't blame you much for wanting to be free
I just wanted you to know

I've loved you better than your own kin did
From the very very start, though it's my own fault
What ever happens to my heart
You see I've always known you'd go

So you just do, oh, do

Lyricist:Brian Holland/Lamont Dozier/Edward Holland Jr.
Writer(s):Brian Holland/Lamont Dozier/Edward Holland Jr.

Baby, I need your good lovin'
Got to have your love right now, baby
So come and fill my empty arms
And make my life worthwhile

Because I'm not livin', baby
I only exist
I'll never laugh, I'll never smile no more
I don't care if I stay like this, because

Without the one you love, life is not worthwhile
Without your love, my dear, I'm like a motherless child
So come and fill my empty arms
And make my life worthwhile

When I feel that old hurt comin' on
I stop and cry like I'm cryin' (Right now)
People ask why would a grown man cry
I drop my head, and I sadly reply

Without the one you love, life is not worthwhile
Without your love, my dear, oh, I'm like a motherless child
So come and fill my empty arms
And make my life worthwhile

(Baby, I need your good lovin')
Sometimes I feel like the wanderer
(Got to have your love right now)
Searching for peace within
(Baby, I need your good lovin')
I need you, my darling
(Got to have your love right now)
Like a lost soul needs a friend

So come and fill my empty arms
Ooh, and fill my empty life

(Baby, I need your good lovin')
Nobody knows the emptiness I feel
(Got to have your love right now)
That I'm feelin'
(Baby, I need your good lovin')
Nobody knows the loneliness I feel
(Got to have your love right now)
And I feel it 'cause

Without the one you love, oh, life ain't worthwhile
Without your love, my dear, oh, I'm like a motherless child
So come and fill my empty arms
And make my life worthwhile

Because without the one you love, oh, life is not worthwhile,
no, no
Without the one you love, life ain't worthwhile
