Teddy Pendergrass - The Essential Teddy Pendergrass [compilation] (2007) by Teddy Pendergrass (보컬) on maniadb.com

I don't love you anymore
It's just that simple
No, no, no, not like before
Such a shame, dirty shame

We can't work it out
No, not this time
We can't be together
We can only be friends

You gotta respect each other
You gotta reply to your lover
It could never be,
It could never be like it was before,
You don't know what I'm talkin' about

I don't love you anymore
It's just that simple
No, no, no, not like before
Such a shame, dirty shame

I'll take care of my responsibilities
I'll send you your money
Every month, you can depend on that
You better believe that you can

But we can't live together
This way we'll be much better

'Cause you say you never know
You say you never know
Where I'm comin' from
You see I just got to tell ya

I don't love you anymore
It's just that simple
No, no, no, not like before

I just got to tell ya
I don't love you anymore
No, no, no, not like before
I don't love you anymore
No, no, no, not like before

Said I try, and I try, and I try
Said I try

I tried being your man
Tried doing everything that I can
But we can't make it
But we can't make it
We just can't make it
We just can't make it

Maybe someday
Once we get our heads together
Oh, oh, oh oh
Well, we can try baby, try baby

I don't love you anymore
No, no, no, not like before
I don't love you anymore
No, no, no, not like before

I don't love you anymore
No, no, no, not like before
I don't love you anymore

It's so good lovin' somebody
And that somebody loves you back

To be loved and be loved in return
It's the only thing that my heart desires
Just appreciate the little things I do
Oh, you're the one who's got me inspired
Keep on liftin', liftin' me higher

So good, good lovin' somebody
And that somebody loves you back
It's so good needin' somebody
And that somebody needs you back

We can build a world of love, a life of joy
Make our goal each other's happiness
I will do for you anything that I can
Oh, everyday I wanna do a little more
Do a little more, just a little bit more

It's so good, good lovin' somebody
And that somebody loves you back and that's a fact
It's so good wantin' somebody
And that somebody wants you back

Said it's so good

Oh...ho...

To be loved and be loved in return
It's the only thing that my heart desires
Just appreciate the little things I do
Oh, you're the one who's got me inspired
Keep on liftin', liftin' me higher

So good lovin' somebody
And that somebody loves you back and that's a fact
It's so good needin' somebody
And that somebody needs you back

Said now 70/30
Now 60/40
Talkin' 'bout a 5-/50 love

Said it's so good lovin' somebody
And that somebody loves you back, yeah

Said now 70/30
Now 60/40
Talkin' 'bout a 5-/50 love, yeah

It's so good, good lovin' somebody
And that somebody loves you back, yeah
It's so good, good

I'm so glad that there's you
I've experienced over and over when
I've given 80% and she's given 20%
Now she's givin' 70% and I'm givin' 30
But you just don't know how it feels to have somebody
That you can share your life
Somebody that you don't mind talkin' to
Somebody that you don't mind goin' the middle of the road
I know a lot of guys today they wish they had somebody just like you
I don't know when the last time I told you
But girl, you make me so very happy
I think we've got something that a lot of people don't seem to have
Talkin' 'bout a 50/50 love, yeah

Come on and go with me
Come on over to my place

I don?t feel like bein? lonely tonight
You see, I want, I want some company
And you look like you're just my type
You?re the kind, you?re the kind
Whose spirits are runnin? free

Let?s take a sip of some cold, cold wine
And dance to the music nice and slow
And you won?t be under any kind of pressure
You see, we?ll just let, we?ll just let the evenin' flow

Come on and go with me
I?d sure like that, baby
Come on over to my place
It would be so nice, it would be so good
Come on and go with me
Come on over to my place

You look like you?re just bored to death
And you wanna get away
You wanna get away from this noisy crowd
Let?s go where it?s nice and quiet
Where there?s nobody, there?s nobody else around

Let?s sit by a cozy lit fire
And we can be in each other?s company
Now how does that sound to you?
You see, ?cause it sounds so good
It sounds so good to me

Come on and go with me
Would you do that, baby?
Come on over to my place
Would you do that, baby?
Would you do that, baby?
Come on and go with me
Come on over to my place

My car?s right outside, we can leave right now
That?s if you?re ready to go
I know you?re just beatin? me
You see, I?d understand it
I'd understand it if you said no
But don?t you do it, baby

Come on and go with me, come on, baby
(No)
Come on over to my place
(No, not tonight, no)
You see it?s not far from here
(I believe you)

Would you just take a minute and think about it?
(Oh, man)
Would you just think about it, think about it? Yeah
(I?m thinkin? about it but I really have to say no)

Come on and go with me
Come on over to my place
(No, I know)
You?re sittin? here, you?ve been sittin? here for quite a long time
(Yeah, I?m slightly bored, I hate bein? bored)

See, I?ve been watchin? you
(I?ve been doin? the same thing)
I?ve had my eyes on you
(I?ve been checkin? you out all night long)
You look so nice and you look so sweet
(Oh, thank you)

Come on and go with me
(That was sweet)
You look like you oughta be with me
Come on, over to my place
(Yeah, but what are you gonna with me? That?s the problem)

Seems that you feel the same way I do
(I think it would pretty interesting)
It seems that you need some company, too
(Oh, boy)
Yeah

Come on and go with me
(You said your car is right outside, right in front)
Come on, over to my place
(And you?re gonna bring me home after)
But would it be all right with you?

Come on and go with me
If we left here and we went somewhere else, baby
(Come on over to my place)
Somewhere where it?s nice and quiet, nice and quiet
(That?s nice, yeah, that sounds a little better than this place)
Where we could sit down by a cozy lit fire
We could sip a little wine, work things out
(Oh, yeah)

Come on and go with me, work things out
(Well, I cannot stay long)
Come on over to my place
(We got an hour, no more than that)
Lady, you won?t be under any kinda pressure
(Please, I cannot stand pressure)

I wouldn?t do that, baby? No
(Okay, well, would you get my coat?)
See, I wouldn?t do that, baby
See, I just wanna sit down
And get to know you a little better
(Okay, just for a little while)

I swear you look so good to me
(Are you gonna pay for my drink?)
Come on over to my place
You look so good to me

Lookin' back over my years
I guessed, I've shedded some tears
Told myself time and time again
This time I'm gonna win

But another fight, things ain't right
I'm losin' again
Takes a fool to lose twice
And start all over again

Think I'd better let it go
Looks like another love T.K.O. (Oh...oh...oh...)
Think I'd better let it go (What you think about it, girl), let it go, baby (Oh, yeah)
Looks like another love T.K.O. (Mmm...mmm...mmm)

Tried to take control of the love
Love took control of me
'Cause you lose all thoughts, sense of time
And have a change of mind

Takin' the bumps and the bruises
Of all the things of a two-time loser
Tryin' to hold on, faith is gone
It's just another sad song

I think I'd better let it go (What you say about it?)
Looks like another love T.K.O. (Oh...oh...ho...whoa...yes)
I think I'd better let it go), let it go, baby (Oh, baby)
Looks like another love T.K.O. (Mmm...hmm...oh...ho...oh...)

Oh...ho...whoa...ho...
Ooh...hoo...
Oh...ho...oh...
Ooh...ooh...
Mmm...mmm...

Tried to take control of the love
Love took control of me
'Cause you lose all thoughts, sense of time
And have a change of mind

Takin' the bumps and the bruises
Of all the things of a two-time loser
See I try to hold on, my faith is gone
It's just another sad song

And I think I'd better let it go (Let it go, let it go)
Looks like another love T.K.O. (I think I'd better)
Think I'd better let it go, let it go, baby (If I know what's good for you, girl)
Looks like another love T.K.O. (I couldn't stand this pain much longer)

Think I'd better let it go, let it go, baby (Whoa...oh...yeah)
Looks like another love T.K.O. (Ooh...ooh...baby)
(Oh, sometimes, sometimes I just feel like I wanna say)
(I wanna say, mmm...mmm...)

'Cause it looks like another love T.K.O.
(Tired of gettin' beat up by love)
Think I'd better let it go, let it go, baby (Before it's too late, yeah)
Looks like another love T.K.O. (Hey...ey...oh, yeah) (Mmm...hmm...mmm...hmm...mmm...hmm...mmm...hmm...)

Think I'd better let it go (Yeah)
Looks like another love T.K.O. (Hey, yeah, whoa, I think I'd better)
Think I'd better let it go (Let it go), let it go, baby (Oh, yeah)
Looks like another (Yeah) love T.K.O.
(Oh, they say love is better the second time around)

Think I'd better let it go (I can't stand on my feet)
Looks like another love T.K.O. (I'm falling down, no, 'cause, 'cause, 'cause)
I think I'd better let it go (Let it go, baby)

To be near you

I'm pretty sure i need you more
As time goes by

Life is a song worth singing
Why don't you sing it?
Life is a song worth singing
Why don't you sing it?

You hold the key in the palm of your hand, use it
Don't blame your life on the master plan, change it

Only you generate the power
To decide what to do with your life
You're a fool if you think you're helpless
You control what you do with your life

Life is a song worth singing
Why don't you sing it?
Life is a song worth singing
Why don't you sing it?

Don't like the way you're living, too bad
Can't change your life 'cause it's out of your hand, so sad

So you sit on your pants and holler
'Cause the world ain't been treating you right
Don't you know you contain the power
To control destiny with your mind

You control what you do with your life
You're a fool if you think you're helpless
Can't change your life 'cause it's out of your hand, so sad, no

You got the power, use it, use it
You got to control destiny with your mind
Right here, right here, right here
You decide what to do with your life, well, well

Life is a song worth singing

Something that you told me
Stayed in my head all night long
You wanted me to love you when you said, "Simply
Reach out and touch me, my love is in your hands"

Feel me, I want to feel the fire
Why do you want to play with my emotion?

And if I should lose your love
For any reason, any reason at all
Then just let my record show
I gave you all of my love I know

Feel me, I want to feel the fire
Feel me, I want to feel the fire
I don't want to play with your emotions
Give me love and all your devotion
I want to feel you, feel it

And if I should lose your love
For any one reason, any reason at all
Then just let my record show
I gave you all the love, I know

Feel the fire, I want to feel you
I want to feel you
Feel the fire, I want to feel you
Teddy, Teddy, Teddy, don't you dare
Don't you dare try to play with my emotions

I want to give you all of my love
I want to give you all of my love

Feel the fire, feel the fire
Feel it, feel it, feel it, feel it
Come on, Teddy, Teddy

I want to give you all of my love
I want to give you all of my love
I want to give you all of my, all of my, all of my
All of my ever [Incomprehensible] my loving

Don't you dare, I don't believe that
You'd dare to play with my emotions
You better believe it baby, I do
Give me all of your love baby
Give me all of your love, I give you all

Let me give you what you've been waiting for
Baby I got so much love to give
I wanna give it all to you

Close the door
No need to worry no more

Girl it's me and you now
I've waited all day long just to hold you in my arms
And it's exactly like I thought it would be
Me loving you and you loving me

Close the door
Let me rub your back where you say it's sore


Come on get closer
So close to me
Let's get lost in each other
Come here baby

I've waited all day long just to hold you in my arms
And it's exactly like I thought it would be
Me loving you and you loving me

And then again and then again
When the morning comes

Wake up everybody, no more sleepin' in bed
No more backward thinkin' time for thinkin' ahead
The world has changed so very much from what it used to be
So there is so much hatred war an' poverty

Wake up all the teachers, time to teach a new way
Maybe then they'll listen to whatcha have to say
'Cause they're the ones who's coming up and the world is in their hands
When you teach the children, teach 'em the very best you can

The world won't get no better
If we just let it be
The world won't get no better
We gotta change it, yeah, just you and me

Wake up all the doctors, make the ol' people well
They're the ones who suffer an' who catch all the hell
But they don't have so very long before the judgment day
So won'tcha make them happy before they pass away?

Wake up all the builders, time to build a new land
I know we can do it if we all lend a hand
The only thing we have to do is put it in our mind
Surely things will work out, they do it every time

The world won't get no better
If we just let it be
The world won't get no better
We gotta change it, yeah, just you and me

Mmm

I dreamed of you last night
And oh, your face was so very clear
All I could do was think about the good times
That you and I used to share

I could remember the last time
Oh, I held you in my arms
But all those days have come and gone now
And all I seem to do is cry

It hurts {It hurts}
Remembering how things used to be
We thought our love {Our love}
Could last throughout eternity
Now it's history, baby

It should've been you, whoa
It should've been me
It should've been all those that life
Was meant to be

But if I had you, oh, babe
This time you'd see
You would have all my love
I kept {I kept} inside {Inside} me

Now you've got somebody else
Yes, I've got somebody too
But you know I've finally realized
No one could ever take the place of you, no

I'm not the one to place the blame
Or for whatever the fault just might be
All I need is to find a little happiness
Oh, in life that will fulfill me

It's you {It's you}
It's you that means more to me
Without your love
It's nothin' more than fantasy
Baby, come back to me, whoa

It should've been you, whoa
It should've been me
It should've been all those that life
Was meant to be

It should've been you
It should've been me
We could've built a love so strong
But my eyes were closed and I didn't see

Oh, it should've been you
It should've been me
It could've been all the that life
Was meant to be, was meant to be, meant to be, babe

Oh, if I had you, girl
This time you'll see
This time you would have all the love
That I kept, oh, I kept, I kept inside of me

Oh, it hurts {It hurts}
Remembering how things used to be
We thought our love
Could last throughout eternity
Now it's history, whoa, baby

It should've been you (It should've been you, baby)
It should've been me (Should've been me)
It could've been all those in life (All those things in life)
That was meant to be (That was meant to be), oh, baby

I know, I know, I know, I know it should've you
It should've been me
We could've built a love so strong (We could've built a love so strong)
But my eyes were closed and I didn't see

It should've been you (It should've been you, baby)
Oh, it should've been me (Should've been you and me)
It could've been all those in life
That was meant to be, that was meant to be, oh

{Could've been, should've been you}
Oh, I know if I had you, girl
I know this time you'll see (This time you'll see)
I'll show you, baby (I'll show you, baby)
You could have all my love
All the love, all the love I kept wrapped up inside of me, oh yeah

Why don't you give me one more chance (Why don't you)
If you wanna be with me
Take a chance with me, baby
I woke up this morning with you on my mind

Oh, baby
Oh, baby
Come on

Let's start all over
We can make it work this time

I'll give you my love with sweet surrender
Tonight our hearts will beat as one
And I will hold you, touch you
And make you my woman tonight

There's something in your eyes I see
A pure and simple honesty

Hold me in your arms tonight
Fill my life with pleasure
Let's not waste this precious time
This moment's ours to treasure

Hold me in your arms tonight
We'll make it last forever
When the morning sun appears
We'll find our way together

I believe you when you say that you love me
Know that I won't take you for granted
Tonight the magic has begun
So won't you hold me, touch me
Make me your woman tonight

There's something in your eyes I see
I won't betray your trust in me

Hold me in your arms tonight
Fill my life with pleasure
Let's not waste this precious time

Hold me in your arms tonight
We'll make it last forever
When the morning sun appears

Joy
Joy

It's a joy
Joy to be
To be near you
I want you here with me

It's a joy
Joy to be
To be near you
I want you here with me

Lady, can't you see just how much you mean to me
Get a thrill each time I'm near you
I get such a rush, I crave to feel your tender touch
Magic moment paradise, oh, baby

Life is too damn short to let you get up in
I'm here to say I need your love, oh, baby
There's no greater pleasure than you give to me
Here me, baby, I want you to know

It's a joy
Joy to be
To be near you
I want you here with me

It's a joy
Joy to be
To be near you
I want you here with me

Darling, don't you know, my heart longs to hold you do
Passion burns inside my mind
You're my fantasy, no other love can set me free
I'm glad to know that you're all mine, mine

Sailing through the night, I'll find the certain pleasures
A million stars feel like the moon, so full of love
Nothin' takes the place of romance since you came
All you need is you and me, baby

It's a joy
Joy to be
To be near you
I want you here with me

It's a joy
Joy to be
I wanna be near you
I want you here with me

It's a joy
Joy to be
To be near you
I-I want you here with me

It's a joy, oh, baby
Joy to be
To be near you
I want you here with me

We're meant to be and I know we can win
Times I feel like a kid on a Ferris wheel
You make my world go 'round and around
So much to live for and I'm livin' it now

Joy
Joy
Joy

James would say, "Uh"
Ooh
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
Tell me what you like
Mmm, mmm...mmm
Mmm

Ah, baby
Tell me what you like
{Tell me what you like} Mmm
{I wanna be near you} Mmm, mmm
{So I can feel you} Mmm...hmm...
{Tell me what you like} Oh...
Come let me hold you, come let me squeeze you

Joy
Joy to be
Come let me kiss you
Oh, 'cause I miss you

{It's Joy} Joy
{Joy to be}
Oh, let me squeeze you
Oh, let me tease you

Joy
Joy to be, yeah
Have you, baby

Such a joy
Oh, joy
Oh, joy
Glad you're with me

Oh, joy
Oh, joy
Oh, yeah
Warm my heart, my soul, my everything, I love you, baby

It's a joy, oh, babe
Joy to be
To be near you
Want you here with me

It's a joy, oh, joy
Joy to be, oh joy
To be near you
Want you here with me

It's a joy
Joy to be
