How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you I needed the shelter of someone's arms and there you were I needed someone to understand my ups and downs and there you were With sweet love and devotion deeply touching my emotion I want to stop and thank you baby I just want to stop and thank you baby How sweet it is to be loved by you How sweet it is to be loved by you I close my eyes at night, wondering where would I be without you in my life Everything I did was just a bore, everywhere I went it seems I'd been there before But you brightened up for me all of my days With a love so sweet in so many ways I want to stop and thank you baby I want to stop and thank you baby How sweet it is to be loved by you How sweet it is to be loved by you How sweet it is to be loved by you You were better to me than I've been to myself For me, there's you and there ain't nobody else I want to stop and thank you baby I just want to stop and thank you baby (repeat and fade): How sweet it is to be loved by you How sweet it is to be loved by you |

Ooh, I bet you wonder how I knew
About your plans to make me blue with some other guy that you knew before Between the two of us guys You know I love you more It took me by surprise I must say When I found out yesterday I heard it through the grapevine Not much longer would you be mine Oh I heard it through the grapevine And I'm just about to lose my mind Honey, honey yeah You know that a man ain't supposed to cry But these tears I can't hold inside Losing you would end my life you see Cause you mean that much to me You could have told me yourself That you found someone else, instead I heard it through the grapevine Not much longer would you be mine Oh I heard it through the grapevine And I'm just about to lose my mind Honey, honey yeah People say you 'Half from what you see None, none, none from what you hear.' I can't help being confused If it's true, won't you tell me dear Do you plan to let me go For the other guy that you knew before I heard it through the grapevine Not much longer would you be mine Oh I heard it through the grapevine And I'm just about to lose my mind Honey, honey yeah |

I ain't got time to think about money
Or what it can buy And I ain't got time to sit down and wonder What makes a birdie fly And I don't have the time to think about What makes a flower grow And I've never given a second thought To where the rivers flow CHORUS: Too busy thinking about my baby And I ain't got time for nothing else Said, I ain't got time to discuss the weather How long it's gonna last And I ain't got time to do no studies And I don't have the time to think about What makes a flower grow And I've never given a second thought To where the rivers flow CHORUS: Too busy thinking about my baby And I ain't got time for nothing else Said, I ain't got time to discuss the weather How long it's gonna last And I ain't got time to do no studies Once I get out of class Tellin ya I'm just a fellow Said I got a one track mind And when it comes to thinking about anything but my baby I just don't have any time CHORUS The diamonds and pearls in the world Could never match her worth, no no She's some kind of wonderful, people tell ya I got heaven right here on earth I'm just a fellow With a one, one track mind And when it comes to thinkin' about anything but my baby I just don't have any time CHORUS (yeah, she's never hard to find 'cause she's always on my mind) |

You know, when you're in love and your lover leaves you
And you've got nobody, the lonely hours over here Sittin' home and thinkin', you say Distant lover, lover Oh, so many miles away Oh, heaven knows that I long for you Every night, every night and sometimes I yearn through the day Distant lover, oh lover, You should think about me, say a prayer for me Please, please, baby Think about me sometime, think about me yeah Here in misery, misery As I reminisce Oh, baby, through our joyful summer together The promises we made of the daily letter Then all of a sudden everything seemed to explode Now I gaze out my window, sugar, down the lonesome road Distant lover, oh, sugar How can you treat my heart so mean and cruel Don't you know, sugar That every moment that I spent with you I treasured it like it was a precious jewel Oh, baby Lord, have mercy Oh baby, don't go Please come back, baby Something I wanna say When you left you took all of me with you Now, Lord I wonder do you wanna hear me scream and plead Please, please, please, come back home girl Please, baby, come back home Oh baby, don't go Please come back, baby Oh, something I wanna say When you left to go away No other do I want, do you wanna have me plead and scream Please, please, oh please, baby Come back home, girl Oh baby, come back Oh, oh |

GOT TO GIVE IT UP
Marvin Gaye (background sound of people partying throughout) I used to go out to parties And stand around 'Cause I was too nervous To really get down And my body yearned to be free So I got up on the floor and found Someone to choose me No more standin' along the side walls Now I've got myself together, baby And I'm havin' a ball Long as you prove it There's always a chance Somebody watches I'm gonna make romance With your body, ooo baby, you dance all night Get down and prove it, feel all right . . . . (repeat and fade): Keep on dancin' Got to give it up |
