The Supremes Reflections Lyrics
1.All I Know About You


2.Bah, Bah, Bah


3.Forever Came Today

second paragraph:

Suddenly, my world stood still.
My life was then fulfilled
As you gently touched my hand
I knew that we had layed a plan
For everlasting love
That i've been forever dreaming of

Fifth paragraph:

Darling
Ooh, my darling
Make me yours
Let your kiss touch my face
And tell me love has led me
Into this place, to your warm embrace
And our happiness

Thanks to you, my search has ended
And i want the world to se
How gently love has shined on me
With everlasting love
That i've been forever dreaming of


4.I'm Gonna Make It(I Will Wait For You)


5.In And Out Of Love

(brian holland/lamont dozier/edward holland,jr.)

Keep falling in and out of love
In search for what i'm dreaming of
I long to find a love i'm sure about
That certain kind of love that moves all doubts

Keep falling in and out of love
Still searchin' for that special one
To whom i can give my love completely
And feel a lasting love so sweetly

Just when i feel sure love's here to stay
It seems to suddenly just fade away
Can't seem to find that everlasting love
That this heart of mine needs so much of

Keep falling in and out of love
Can't seem to find the lasting kind
It seems i can't find the joy i need
Love always somehow all goes wrong for me

Keep falling in and out of love
Keep falling in and out of love
I keep reaching out for tenderness
Touching a hand that holds emptiness

I'm looking for a love that lingers on
Long after that first kiss is gone
That kind of love that keeps burning bright
Long after we've said goodnight

Keep falling in and out of love
In search for what i'm dreaming of
Keep falling in and out of love...


6.I Can't Make It Alone


7.Love(Makes Me Do Foolish Things)


8.Misery Makes Its Home In My Heart

(william 'smokey' robinson/w. moore)

The door to my heart was open
Open wide much wider than wide
(i said the door was open)
And i had been praying and hoping
That your love would come walking inside

I should have locked my heart
I should have thrown away the key
Instead i let you walk on through
I thought your love was true
But it was misery

Ooh, heartaches, heartbreaks
That's all i've known
Misery makes my heart its home

(i said the door was open, it was wide open)
My heart had room inside
And to fill it with love i was willing
I wanted it to be occupied
By a love that was strong and fulfilling

I should have shut you out
Detained you with a strong defence
Instead my heart gave shelter to
A love i felt was true
In every sense
Don't you know that

Heartaches, heartbreaks
That's all i've known
Misery makes my heart its home

(my heart had room inside now, it had room inside)
Now i've cried a river
No it's more like a sea
Tears flow by the thousand
Since my heart is housing this misery
Misery

Let me tell you about
Heartaches, heartbreaks
That's all i've known
Misery makes my heart its home

Heartaches, heartbreaks
That's all i've known
Misery makes my heart its home

Heartbreaks
That's all i've known
Misery makes my heart its home


9.Ode To Billie Joe

(b. gentry)

It was the third of june, another sleepy, dusty delta day
I was out choppin' cotton and my brother was balin' hay
And at dinner time we stopped and we walked back to the house to
eat
And mama hollered at the back door 'y'all remember to wipe your
feet'
And then she said she got some news this mornin' from choctaw
ridge
Today billie joe macallister jumped off the tallahatchie bridge

Papa said to mama as he passed around the blackeyed peas
'well, billie joe never had a lick of sense, pass the biscuits,
please'
'there's five more acres in the lower forty i've got to plow'
Mama said it was shame about billie joe, anyhow
Seems like nothin' ever comes to no good up on choctaw ridge
And now billie joe macallister jumped off the tallahatchie
bridge

And brother said he recollected when he and tom and billie joe
Put a frog down my back at the carroll county picture show
And wasn't i talkin' to him after church last sunday night?
'i'll have another piece of apple pie, you know it just don't
seem right'
'i saw him at the sawmill yesterday on choctaw ridge'
'and now you tell me billie joe's jumped off the tallahatchie
bridge'

Mama said to me 'child, what's happened to your appetite?'
'i've been cookin' all morning and you haven't touched a single
bite'
'that nice young preacher, brother taylor, dropped by today'
'said he'd be pleased to have dinner on sunday, oh, by the way'
'he said he saw a girl that looked a lot like you up on choctaw
ridge'
'and she and billie joe was throwing somethin' off the
tallahatchie bridge'

A year has come 'n' gone since we heard the news 'bout billie
joe
Brother married becky thompson, they bought a store in tupelo
There was a virus going 'round, papa caught it and he died last
spring
And now mama doesn't seem to wanna do much of anything
And me, i spend a lot of time pickin' flowers up on choctaw
ridge

And drop them into the muddy water off the tallahatchie bridge


10.Reflections

(brian holland/lamont dozier/edward holland,jr.)

Through the mirror of my mind
Time after time
I see reflections of you and me

Reflections of
The way life used to be
Reflections of
The love you took from me

Oh, i'm all alone now
No love to shield me
Trapped in a world
That's a distorted reality

Hapiness you took from me
And left me alone
With only memories

Through the mirror of my mind
Through these tears that i'm crying
Reflects a hurt i can't control
'cause although you're gone
I keep holding on
To the happy times
Oh, when you were mine

As i peer through the window
Of lost time
Looking over my yesterdays
And all the love i gave all in vain
(all the love) all the love
That i've waisted
(all the tears) all the tears
That i've taisted
All in vain

Through the hollow of my tears
I see a dream that's lost
From the hurt
That you have caused

Everywhere i turn
Seems like everything i see
Reflects the love that used to be

In you i put
All my faith and trust
Right before my eyes
My world has turned to dust

After all the nights
I sat alone and wept
Just a handful of promisses
Are all that's left of loving you

Reflections of
The way life used to be
Reflections of
The love you took from me

In you i put
All my faith and trust
Right before my eyes
My world has turned to dust...


11.Stay In My Lonely Arms


12.Then

(william 'smokey' robinson/r.rogers/w. moore)

If columbus never sailed the sea
]if longfellow never wrote a rhyme
If leaves have never grown upon a tree
And if the sands have never told the time
Then i guess i don't love you
Love you like i do
Then i guess i'll have to find me someone new
Then i guess this love i feel couldn't possibly be real

If beethoven never wrote a song
And if shakespeare never wrote a play
If a man has never done a wrong
And if night has never followed day
Then i guess i don't love you
Love you like i do
Then i guess i'll have to find me someone new
Then i guess this love for you couldn't possibly be true

If high is low
And up is down
And if love is not considered an emotion
If yes is no
And square is round
And if waves had never rode across the ocean

If michaelangelo could never paint
And if jezebel was a saint
Then i guess i don't love you
Love you like i do
Then i guess i'll have to find me someone new
Then i guess this love is wrong couldn't possibly be strong

Then i don't love you
Love you like i do
Then i guess i'll have to find me someone new
Then i guess this love i feel...


13.Up, Up And Away

(j. webb)

Would you like to ride
In my beautiful balloon ?
Would you like to glide
In my beautiful balloon ?
We could flow among the stars
Together you and i
For we can fly
For we can fly

Up and away
In my beautiful
My beautiful balloon

The world's a nicer place
In my beautiful balloon
It wears a nicer face
In my beautiful balloon
We can sing a song
And sail along the silversky
For we can fly
For we can fly

Up and away
In my beautiful
My beautiful balloon

Suspended under a twilight canopy
We'll search the sky for a star to guide us
If by some chance you find yourself loving me
We'll find a cloud to hide us
Keep the moon beside us

Love is waiting there
In my beautiful balloon
Way up in the air
In ly beautiful balloon
If you'll hold my hand
We'll chase your dream across the sky
For we can fly
For we can fly

Up and away
In my beautiful
My beautiful balloon

Up, up and away
Up, up and away
Up, up and away
Up, up and away
Up, up and away


14.What The World Needs Now Is Love

(hal david/burt bacharach)

What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
No not just for some but for everyone

Lord we don't need another mountain
There are mountains and hillsides
Enough to climb
There are oceans and rivers
Enough to cross. enough to last
'till the end of time

What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
No not just for some but for everyone

Lord we don't need another meadow
There are corn fields and wheat fields
Enough to grow
There are sun beams and moon beams
Enough to shine
Oh listen lord if you want to know

What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
No not just for some but for everyone

What the world needs now is love, sweet love
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
What the world needs now...
