Everlasting

Natalie Cole Everlasting Lyrics
1.Everlasting

Written:Jerry Knight and Aaron Zigman

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Woh, woh, oh, oh
Everlasting, what a feeling
Just to know the love we've got is
Everlasting, and never ending
Is all I need to keep on givin'
I was just an average girl
Playing the field, hoping
For someone to come into my world
Someone not afraid to look into my eyes
And make a connection
Then you walked in my direction
And from the moment that we touched
I knew what we found was
Everlasting, what a feeling
Just to know the love we've got is
Everlasting, and never ending
Is all I need to keep on giving
Walking down a one way street
I had to be careful
'Cause it seemed that every guy that I'd meet
Was looking just to have another one night stand
But through your devotion
I surrendered my emotion
I'm giving you the best of me
'Cause I'm sure that we'll be
(Everlasting) Everlasting (what a feeling)
Just to know the love we've got is
Everlasting and never ending
Is all I need to keep on giving
Everlasting love, oh, yeah
(Woh, oh, oh)
It's gonna be, it's gonna be a
(Everlasting love) uh, ha
Wo, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Even though the cold wind's blowin'
Nothing keeps our love from growin'
Through the fire we will survive together
Until the end of time
(Everlasting) woh, oh (what a feeling)
What a feeling, just to know the love we've got is
(Everlasting) everlasting (and never ending)
And never ending
Is all I need to keep on givin'
(Everlasting) Scat (what a feeling)
Our love's gonna grow
Even through the fire, Baby
(Everlasting) everlasting
(And never ending) never ending
(Scat)
Even though the cold wind's blowin'
Nothing keeps our love from growing
Through the fire we will survive together
Until the end of time
(Everlasting, what a feeling) woo, woo, woo
It's gonna be, it's gonna be a
(Everlasting) yes, it is (and never ending)
Until the end of time
And even through the fire, Baby
(Everlasting) oh, yeah
(What a feeling)
Just to know that the love we've got is
(Everlasting) everlasting (never ending)
What a feeling, oohy, oohy, oohy
You and me, (Everlasting love)
Babe, you and me, Babe
We got a connection (woh, oh, oh)
In the right direction, Baby
Just me and you, (everlasting love)
Just you and me


2.Jump Start

Written:Reggie Calloway and Vincent Calloway

Alright yaul, oh, oh, oh
(uh, oh, uh, oh, oh, oh)
Hey, hey, ooh, yeah
Feels like my battery's in need of a jump
Our love is running down, done fell into a slump
Give me a spark to get the fire burning
A get my engine movin, set these wheels a turnin
Our love could use some rejuvination
You bring the wine, I'll bring the sweet conversation
Romance is here to stay, I'll testify 'cause I need some today
So won't cha
Jump start my heart
Charge me up when I'm runnin down
Oh, jump start my heart
Lift my feet up off the ground
When it comes to lovin', Baby
Can't get enough, hot wire me
Satisfy me, don't give me up
Turn on the heat on a cold winter's morning
Don't let the seasons change and nature catch me callin
Can't let this feelin just slip away
Our love was meant to last forever and a day
We can't neglect what we cherish the most
So drop your foolish pride 'cause I need you more and more
(Nothing good comes easily)
Ooh, we've got to work it 'til we get it right
(You see I love you so) I'll (I'll never let you go) never let

3.The Urge To Merge


4.Split Decision

Written:Burt Bacharach&Carole Bayer Sager

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Oh, yeah
Doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Mm, hmm
Who's gonna take the blame tomorrow
If we break up tonight
If we break up
Who's gonna stop this stupid war
That nobody's gonna win
The jury's still out on us
Split decision, split in two
By the things that came between us
So unimportant now
All of those fights
Why do we always hurt the ones
We care the most about
The jury's still out on us
Split decision, split in two
By the things that happened
And the dreams that came apart
Do you still want me in your life
I need to know so tell me
Can we still make it in this life
Or is it too late for us
How long is time about to wait
Oh, oh, oh, oh
-Musical Interlude-

Hoo--
Who's gonna say they're sorry first
And put this hurt away
The jury's still out on us
Split decision
Split in
It's not so easy putting back the pieces
Of a broken heart
Getting back where we started
Oh, no, oh, no
It's not so easy picking up the pieces
Of a broken heart
And get it back (get it back)
Get it back (where we started) where we started
Oh, oh, oh, no but if we hold on
(But if we hold on) we (we can try to make it)
Can try to make it
(Maybe mend this heart) and get it back
(Get it back where we started) where we started
Oh, oh, oh (it's not so easy) it's not so easy
picking up (picking up the pieces) the iddy bitty pieces
(Of a broken heart)
Get it back (get it back where we started)
Get it back where we started
But if we hold on (if we hold on)
We're (we can try to make it) gonna make it
(Maybe mend this heart)
Get it back where we started...


5.When I Fall In Love

Natalie Cole:Lead & Background Vocals
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
When I fall in love it will be forever
Or I'll never fall in love
In a restless world such as this is
Love has ended before it's begun
And too many moonlight kisses
Seem to cool in the warmth of the sun (sun)
When I give my heart it will be completely
Or I'll never give my heart
No, no, no
And the moment I can feel (feel that) that
You feel that way too
Is when I fall in love with you
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
Ooh, ooh

(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
Oh and when I give my heart
It will be completely
Or I'll never, ever give my heart
Mmm, but the moment that I (feel that) feel that
You feel the same way too
And I hope you do
Is when I fall in love
When I fall in love
When I fall in love
(With you)
Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo,
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
oh yeah
When I fall, when I fall, oh, yeah,
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
in love
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
And I'm not gonna stop 'til I fall in love with you
(Not gonna stop 'til I fall in love with you)
Hey, hey, hey, hey, yeah
I'm not gonna stop 'til I fall in love with you
(Not gonna stop 'til I fall in love with you)
No, Baby, and it will be completely, yeah, yeah
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
It will be so sweetly,
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)

oh yeah
I'm not gonna stop 'til I fall in love with you
(Not gonna stop 'til I fall in love with you)
Hey, I'm not gonna stop 'til I fall in love with you
(Not gonna stop 'til I fall in love with you)
No how, no way, no, no, no
Not (Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo) any time soon, ooh


6.Pink Cadillac

You may think I'm fooling
For the foolish things I do
You may wonder how come I love you
When you get on my nerves like you do
Well baby, you know you bug me
There ain't no secret about that
Well come on over here and hug me
And, baby, I'll spill the facts
Well, honey it ain't your money
Cause baby I got plenty of that

I love you for your pink Cadillac
Crushed velvet seats
Riding in the back, oozing down the street
Waving to the girls
Feeling out of sight
Spending all my money on a Saturday night
Honey, I just wonder what you do there in back of your pink
Cadillac
Pink Cadillac

Well now way back in the Bible, temptations always come along
There's always somebody tempting you
Somebody into doing something they know is wrong
Well they tempt you man with silver and they tempt you sir with
gold
And they tempt you with the pleasures that the flesh does surely
hold
They say Eve tempted Adam with an apple
Man I ain't going for that

I know it was her pink Cadillac
Crushed velvet seats
Riding in the back, oozing down the street
Waving to the girls
Feeling out of sight
Spending all my money on a Saturday night
Honey, I just wonder what you do there in back of your pink
Cadillac

Now some folks say it's too big and uses too much gas
Some folks say it's too old and that it goes too fast
But my love is bigger than a Honda, it's bigger than a Subaru
Hey man there's only one thing and one car that will do
Anyway we don't have to drive it honey, we can park it out in
back
And have a party in your pink Cadillac


7.I Live For Your Love

Written:Pam Reswick/Steve Werfel/Allan Rich

Stand up, stand on your own, that's what they tell me
You can make it alone, but where does it say I have to move
Far away from you to prove I'm strong,
Oh when all it really proves is I'm lonely without you
And loneliness has to be wrong, I live for your love,
(everyday), every minute
I live for your love, (in my life), want you in it
I live for your love, I admit it, I live for your love
I wake up with no one to kiss, sometimes I wonder, (wonder,
wonder) if I just exist
I know there are people I can see, places I could be, and
friends who call
Oh but what good does it do, there's no substitute for you
I want you or nothing at all, I live for your love, (every day),
every minute
I live for your love, (in my life), want you in it, I live for
your love, I admit it
I live for your love and your kisses, and know how I'm missing
Your sweet tender touch, (tender touch), I need you so much
That I just can't go on anymore, what I wouldn't give for
'Cause darling I live for your love, (Everyday), every minute
I live for your love, (Got one life) want you in it
I live for your love, I hate to admit it, but oh, I live for,
I'd die for
What I wouldn't give for your love, (I live for your loveevery
day)
I live for your love, (got one life) every day, every minute
(I live for your love), I have only got one life, I want you in
it
Oh, my baby, yes, yes, I live for your love, ooh, ooh
