Aretha Franklin - Love Songs (2003) by Aretha Franklin (보컬) on maniadb.com

I talked to you today, we've loved each other
For so long in that special way
And if circumstances should keep us apart
I just want you to know
That you will remain forever here in my heart

Sweet, sweet bitter love
The taste still lingers, going through my helpless fingers
You slipped away, ooh, yes you did

Sweet, sweet bitter love, what joy you told me
What pain you didn't mean to but you brought me
And so sure, baby and so sure to stay

Our magic dreams have lost their spells
And where there, where there was hope
Oh, there's an, an empty shell

Oh, sweet, na na na, na na na, na na, bitter love
Why have you awaken and then forsaken
A trusting heart like mine

My magic, my magic dreams
They've all, they've all, all lost their spells
And where there, where I had a little bit of hope
Yes sir, there is, oh look at me now, there is an empty shell

Oh, sweet, na na na, na na na, na na, bitter love
Why have you awakened and then
And then and then and then and then you know, you have forsaken
A trusting heart, yeah like mine, a trusting heart like mine
I love you boy, yes I do, like mine

Say, can't I hear you say somethin'

Deep inside, fall on the wall
That's where I find protection from the rain
Since you've been gone, my only friend is yesterday, ooh boy

Telephone won't make a sound
Waitin' here for you to change your mind
You never called, I'm lost in the tears I hide behind, ohh yeah

That's where I'll be
Until you say you love me, ohh
That's where I'll be
Until you say you love me

Late at night I toss and turn
Burnin' memories lingerin' on
I'd give the world just to prove my love for you is strong

All you left is confusion and doubt
Unanswered questions, just where did I fail?
I'm hurt and helpless inside a cold and empty shell, ooh boy

That's where I'll be
Until you say you love me, yeah
That's where I'll be
Until you say you love me

You?re love's sweet reason for livin'
In your arms I found my home
Love's waitin' here for givin'
Like a stone, like a stone, oh

Telephone won't make a sound
Waitin' here for you to change your mind
But you never called and I'm lost in the tears I hide, yeah, behind

That's where I'll be
Until you say you love me
That's where I'll be
Until you say you love me, yeah

That's where I'll be
Until you say you love me, yeah
That's where I'll be
Until you say you say, say, say, say you love me

Till you say you love me
Till you say you love me
Till you say you love me
Till you say you love me

Till you say you love me
Till you say you love me
Till you say you love me

ooooohhh
why are we fighting
why do we scream
seems all we do now is treat each other mean
we used to be so understadning
about each others ways

seems all we do is get in each other's way

Chorus:
Better Friends than lovers ( so much better friends)
we used to have a ball
let's not wait until the friendship breaks
cause we don't have to lose it all
better friends than lovers
honey can't you see
you need you and I need me
so its time now to set each other free

You get mad when guys stare at me
and I'm mad when girls look
I don't believe we're ready now
for living by this book
the things we love about us
are the things we seem to hate
when we go out for good times


Chorus

We were both out there fishing
we weren't ready to care
and no room in our hearts for love
to love each other back

Chorus


Chorus

<lyrics>There was a time when men were kind
When their voices were soft
And their words inviting
There was a time when love was blind
And the world was a song
And the song was exciting
There was a time
Then it all went wrong

I dreamed a dream in time gone by
When hope was high
And life worth living
I dreamed that love would never die
I dreamed that God would be forgiving
Then I was young and unafraid
And dreams were made and used and wasted
There was no ransom to be paid
No song unsung, no wine untasted

But the tigers come at night
With their voices soft as thunder
As they tear your hope apart
And they turn your dream to shame

He slept a summer by my side
He filled my days with endless wonder
He took my childhood in his stride
But he was gone when autumn came

And still I dream he'll come to me
That we will live the years together
But there are dreams that cannot be
And there are storms we cannot weather

I had a dream my life would be
So different from this hell I'm living
So different now from what it seemed
Now life has killed the dream I dreamed.

It's an ever changing time
I see, that clock upon the wall
Well it don't bother me at all
It's an ever changing time

And me, ever changing time
Everything is going so much faster
It seems like I'm
Watching my life, and everything I do
Wonder if the dreams that I believed in
Still come true

Caught in between, it comes back to
You and me running out of time, I gotta find me a better understanding
Everything keeps forgetting whats mine, I gotta find me a way, less-demanding
And we're holding on so tight, together, all of our lives

And I, I had some big idea
So much of my life, still not completed
Hopes and Fears
Watching it change, into something new
Wondering it Im gonna find the answer, loving you

All of my life, it comes back to
You and me running out of time, I gotta find me a better understanding
Everything keeps forgetting whats mine, I gotta find me a way, less-demanding
And we're holding on so tight, together, all of our lives

I see, that clock upon the wall, well it dont bother me at all
It's a ever changing time
(2x)

All of my life, it comes back to
You and me running out of time, I gotta find me a better understanding
Everything keeps forgetting whats mine, I gotta find me a way, less-demanding
And we're holding on so tight, together
(/i)And we're gonna be alright(i), together, all of our lives

I see, that clock upon the wall, well it dont bother me at all
It's a ever changing time
(5x)
