Michael Jackson Best Of Michael Jackson Lyrics
1.Ben

Ben, the two of us need look no more
We both found what we were looking for
With a friend to call my own
I'll never be alone
And you my friend will see
You've got a friend in me
(you've got a friend in me)

Ben, you're always running here and there
(here and there)
You feel you're not wanted anywhere
(anywhere)
If you ever look behind
And don't like what you find
There's something you should know
You've got a place to go
(you've got a place to go)

I used to say, 'i' and 'me'
Now it's 'us', now it's 'we'
(i used to say, 'i' and 'me')
(now it's 'us', now it's 'we')

Ben, most people would turn you away
I don't listen to a word they say
They don't see you as i do
I wish they would try to
I'm sure they'd think again
If they had a friend like ben
(a friend)
Like ben
(like ben)
Like ben


2.Got To Be There

Got to be there, got to be there
In the morning
When she says hello to the world
Got to be there, got to be there
Bring her good times
And show her that she's my girl
Oh what a feeling there'll be
The moment i know she loves me
'cause when i look in her eyes i realize
I need her sharing her world beside me

So i've got to be there
Got to be there in the morning
And welcome her into my world
And show her that she is my girl
When she says, 'hello world!'
I need her sharing the world beside me

That's why i've got to be there
Got to be there where love begins
And that's everywhere she goes
I've got to be there so she knows
That when she's with me, she's home

Got to be there
Got to be there


3.Happy

Sadness had been close as my next of kin
Then happy came one day, chased my blues away
My life began when happy smiled
Sweet, like candy to a child
Stay here and love me just a while
Let sadness see what happy does
Let happy be where sadness was

Happy, that's you
You made my life brand new
Lost as a little lam was i till you came in
My life began when happy smiled
Sweet, like candy to a child
Stay here and love me just a while
Let sadness see what happy does
Let happy be where sadness was
(till now)

Where have i been?
What lifetime was i in?
Suspended between time and space
Lonely until happy came smiling up at me
Sadness had no choice but to flee
I said a prayer so silently
Let sadness see what happy does
Let happy be where sadness was till now


4.I Wanna Be Where You Are

Can it be i stayed away too long
Did i leave your mind when i was gone
It's not my thing trying to get back
But this time let me tell you where i'm at
You don't have to worry 'cause i'm coming
Back to where i should have always stayed
And now i've heard the maybe to your story
And it's enough love for me to stay

Can it be i stayed away too long
Did i leave your mind when i was gone
It's not my thing trying to get back
But this time let me tell you where i'm at

Chorus:
I wanna, wanna be where you are
Anywhere you are
I wanna, wanna be where you are
Everywhere you are

Bridge:
Please don't close the door to our future
There's so many things we haven't tried
I could love you better than i used to
And give you all the love i have inside

Chorus:
I wanna, wanna be where you are
Any, any, anywhere you are
I wanna, wanna be where you are
I gotta be where you are


5.Morning Glow

Morning glow morning glow
Starts to glimmer when you know
Winds of change are set to blow
And sweep this whole land through
Morning glow is long past due

Morning glow fill the earth
Come on shine far all you're worth
We'll be present at the birth
Of all faith looking new
Morning glow is long past due

Oh oh morning glow
I'd like to help you grow
You should have started long ago

Morning glow all days long
For we sing tomorrow's song
Never knew we could be so strong
But now it's very clear
Morning glow is almost here

Oh oh morning glow
I'd like to help you grow
We should have started long ago

Morning glow all your life
We can make the new day right
All the bad songs of the night
Will fade into the past
Morning glow is here at last


6.Music And Me

We've been together for such a long time now
Music, music and me
Don't care wether all our songs rhyme
Now music, music and me

Only know wherever i go
We're as close as two friends can be
There have been others
But never two lovers
Like music, music and me

Grab a song and come along
You can sing your melody
In your mind you will find
A world of sweet harmony

Birds of a feather will fly together
Now music, music and me
Music and me


7.One Day In Your Life

One day in your life
You'll remember a place
Someone touching your face
You'll come back and you'll look around, you'll . . .

One day in your life
You'll remember the love you found here
You'll remember me somehow
Though you don't need me now
I will stay in your heart
And when things fall apart
You'll remember one day . . .

One day in your life
When you find that you're always waiting
For a love we used to share
Just call my name, and i'll be there

You'll remember me somehow
Though you don't need me now
I will stay in your heart
And when things fall apart
You'll remember one day . . .

One day in your life
When you find that you're always lonely
For a love we used to share
Just call my name, and i'll be there


8.Rockin' Robin

He rocks in the tree tops all day long
Hoppin' and a-boppin' and singing his song
All the little birdies on jaybird street
Love to hear the robin go tweet tweet tweet
Chorus:
Rockin' robin, rock rock
Rockin' robin'
Blow rockin' robin
'cause we're really gonna rock tonight

Every little swallow, every chick-a-dee
Every little bird in the tall oak tree
The wise old owl, the big black crow
Flappin' their wings singing go bird go

Chorus

Pretty little raven at the bird-band stand
Told them how to do the bob and it was grand
They started going steady and bless my soul
He out-bopped the buzzard and the oriol

He rocks in the tree tops all day long
Hoppin' and a-boppin' and singing his song
All the little birdies on jaybird street
Love to hear the robin go tweet tweet tweet

Chorus


9.We're Almost There

No matter how hard
The task may seem
Don't give up our plans
Don't give up our dreams

No broken bridges
Can turn us around
Cause what we're searchin' for
Will soon be found

Refrain
Cause we're almost there
Just one more step
(cause we're almost there)
Just one more step
(just one more step)
Don't give up
'cause we're almost all almost there
('cause we're almost there)

(look at the lovers)
Look at the lonely lovers
That didn't make it
Life's long hard climb
(life's long hard climb)
They just couldn't take it
(they just couldn't take it)

Don't let it happen to me and you
Hold on together, darlin'
We'll make it through

Darlin', keep on reachin' out for me
Keep on reachin, do it for me
Do it for me, cause baby

Refrain
('cause we're almost there)
(we're almost there)
('cause we're almost there)

We're so close
I can taste it
A life so sweet
Can't afford to waste it
(can't afford to waste it)

Need to feel your hand
Slippin' from mine?
Just hold on tighter now, darlin'
Keep on tryin'

Refrain
Baby, do it for me, do it do it baby
(cause we're almost there)
Just one more step
(we're almost there)
Don't give up
(cause we're almost there)
Just one more step

Baby baby, don't give up
('cause we're almost there)
Keep on, keep on
(we're almost there)
Just one more step
('cause we're almost there)
Cause we're almost there

(instrumental)

Juste one more step
Cause we're almost there
We've come to far
To turn around

Ooh!!

Keep on reachin'
For higher ground
We've had our ups and we've had our downs
Let nothin' in the world darlin'
Turn us around

Cause we're almost there
We're almost there
We're almost there

Everything we're lookin' for
We're almost there
Keep on reachin' out for me

Cause we're almost there darlin'
We're almost there
We're almost there darlin'
We're almost there
We're almost there

Ah we're almost there


10.With A Child's Heart

With a child's heart
Go face the worries of the day
With a child's heart
Turn each problem into play
No need to worry no need to fear
Just being alive makes it all so very clear

With a child's heart
Nothing can ever get you down
With a child's heart
You've got no reason to frown
Love is as welcome
As a sunny sunny day
No grown-up thoughts
To lead our hearts astray

Take life easy, so easy nice and easy
Like a child so gay and so carefree
The whole world smiles with you
As you go your merry way
Oh with a child's heart
Nothing's gonna get me down
