Teddy Pendergrass

I've been so many places, I've seen so many things
But none quite so lovely as you
More beautiful than the Mona Lisa
Worth more than gold
And my eyes have the pleasure to behold

You're my latest and my greatest
My latest, my greatest inspiration

Things never looked clearer, peace within never felt nearer
My burden's gone, it's turned to a song
Tender as a baby's touch, I needed you, oh, so much
At last the load is so light

You're the latest and my greatest
My latest, my greatest inspiration

I plan to give you all that I have
I'll be everything, everything you think I am
You make life a joy to live
And I'm thankful, yes, I'm blessed just to know you

I've been so many places, I've seen so many things
But none quite so delectable as you
More beautiful than the Mona Lisa
Worth more than gold
And my eyes have the pleasure just to behold

You're my latest, tell you you're my greatest
My latest, my greatest inspiration
You inspire me, inspire me
Don't you know, my latest, my greatest inspiration

You keep just keep on liftin' me up now
(Higher) Mmm
(Higher) You inspire me, I want you to keep liftin' me up
(Higher)

I want you to keep on liftin' me up
(Higher) Alright
(Higher) Alright
See, you got me, you got me doin' things
(Higher) I've never done before
(Higher) See, you inspire me, you inspire me

Don't you know I love you, girl
(Higher) Hey, hey, hey
(Higher) Mmm, mmm, hmm
You, you, you, you keep on liftin' me
(Higher) Higher
(Higher) Higher

Higher, higher, you, you, you keep on liftin' me
(Higher) Higher
(Higher) Higher
Oh, oh

You know what you do to me

Come on keep on liftin' me
(Higher) High

And I will hold you, touch you

A pure and simple honesty

You know, I'm no beginner
My hearts been to the wall
I'm a tried and true romantic
Who's seen and done it all

And when you walked into my life
Suddenly I knew
All the love I had inside
Was leading me to you

In my time
I've lived and loved so much
Through each high and low
I let my heart be touched

In my time
There isn't much I've missed
I've seen love come and go, but heaven knows
I've never loved like this in my time

After all that I've been through
I'm in love with you

I've won some and I've lost some
But us dreamers don't complain
We keep reaching out for passion
No matter what the pain

When I looked into your eyes
It all fell into place
I found, what I was searching for
Shining in your face

In my time
I've lived and loved so much
Through each high and low
I let my heart be touched

In my time
There isn't much I've missed
I've seen love come and go, but heaven knows
I've never loved like this in my time

After all that I've been through
I'm in love with you

In my time
I've lived and loved so much
Through each high and low
I let my heart be touched

In my time
There isn't much I've missed
I've seen love come and go, but heaven knows
I've never loved like this in my time

After all that I've been through
I'm in love with you

Oh love I've waited all my life to find you
I've searched for you in every dream
and suddenly you reached out to me
oh love I remember when I first touched you
I remember how my heart had wings
to said upon
tell me what went wrong

Oh love when you were just within my reach
I was blind to find my dreams of being free
oh love it's not too late for you and me
there's still time as long as we believe
Beleive in love
I thought that I could live without you
I really thought that I was strong
but now you're gone
I'm not half as strong
oh love I never knew how much I missed you
I never knew I had to give to you
to keep you hear
now I need you here
oh love when you were just within my reach
I was blind
To find my dreams of being free
oh love it's not too late for you and me
there's still time
as long as we beleive believe
believe in love
I never knew how life could fade away
a little bit more each day
without you I'm twice the fool
oh love
believe me when I say I'm sorry
we've got to find a way to talk things over
cause it's not over
Believe in love
oh love......

Now you know we've been through a lot today
That's why we need to just sit back
And enjoy this evening
So if you'll choose me and you're my choice tonight

Right tonight, you're my choice tonight
You really got me, yeah, feeling right
Look out, girl, sure gon' be a heavy night

Choose her, beg her, what's your pleasure, girl
In the evening when the day is done

Say goodbye, why?
Should have stayed together

Even now I find
You're always on my mind
And after all we've been through
Baby, it's still you

And I want you back in my life
It's empty here without you
I want you back in my life
I'm always thinking 'bout you

I want you back in my life
Why did I ever doubt you?
Girl, it's been too long
You belong in my life

Feel the chill, still girl, when I'm around you
(Yes, I feel the same)
Could it be we could love the way we used to?
(Yeah, I can feel the flame)

Yes, I've seen enough
To know that this is love
Chance, we've got to take it
Girl, we gonna make it

And I want you back in my life
It's empty here without you

Boy, it's been too long, you belong in my life
(Back in my life, baby)

Oh baby, you know I hate to beg
And I really hate to rush you girl
We've been knowin' each other for so long
And I really think it's time to let go, baby

Oh baby, don't you feel my heart
It's missing some excitement and you're the missing part
You're the missing part that can heal my lonely nights
You're the missing part that's makes my day so bright
Can we be lovers?

You're the only one I need in my life
Can we be lovers?

I don't think true love is a mystery, it's right here for you

Can we be lovers?
Can we be lovers?
Can we be lovers?

Please be careful, baby, how you talk to me
'Cause I have a fragile heart and it's broken [Incomprehensible]
And if it's broken I may never love again
And it will be so sad, sweet darling
To live without my friend

Can't you feel my love it's calling you baby
To a romantic rendezvous
Well, each and every heart wants to feel real, real love
I want you to know that my love is here for you

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

Tell me how long, can we go on this way
Just to be strong
We talk through the night
But never reach the other side
We fill our lives
With endless words, an aimless search

When all that we need, we hold within our hearts
When will we find, our way out of the dark

[
]
We know that
Love is the power, love is the key
Love is the reason, reason to believe
Love is the answer, when we will see
Love is the power, love is the power, we need

Look at our lives, look at this world we've made
We close our eyes, and oh the price we pay
We reach for the sky
But never get beyond our pride

Fighting like fools
This faithless game, is such a shame

When all that we need we hold within our hands
Oh when will we find the faith to understand




All that we need we hold within our hands
Oh when will we find the faith to understand

You can do it, anything you want
You can do it if you try
You can make the world a better place
Don't try to hide

You can have it any way you want
Take your time to decide
Now I got a reason

So you're feelin' down
Got no one around, oh, no
Wish you had that someone {To make you feel}
Every day you're glad to be alive

You can do it if you try
You can make the world a better place
Don't try to hide {Ho}

One boy meets a girl {Woo, woo, uh}
Then they fall in love {The story goes}
They can change the world {Every day}
Everybody's glad to be alive

What's the use in tryin', oh
Look at all the people {With no brain}

Everything I want I find in you
I find everything in you
When my days and nights are lonely
And friends are few
I find everything in you

Sweet smelling fragrance like a rose
You're so, so, so warm, I'm happy in you

Kiss you then I'm on the run

Sometimes work gets so hard
Everyday thoughts of you
Gets me through

Everything I want I find in you
Everything in you

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
Try it again
Let's start all over
We can make it work this time
Come on

Come lay your head an my heart
Soon be apart, stay here the touch of morning
I'm glad we're leaving as friends
Baby, by the way I forgot to say

Can't we try
Love was never born to say goodbye
Just another helpless fool in love is what I am
But I don't give a damn
Sorry, I forgot myself
I guess that I'm just not myself

And I know that we're not supposed to cry
Love was supposed to die when people get to know each other
In case I don't see you again
Really wish you well
Baby, this is hell

Can't we try
Love was never born to say goodbye
Touch me one more time and make me feel that I'm alive
And if we don't survive
At least we'll have a moment here
With honest pain and tears

Then say goodbye
Come lay your head down on my heart
The morning suddenly leads you
You know, yet I don't need you
We can't go back to yesterday
Go away
Girl, I wished you'd stay

Can't we try
Love was never born to say goodbye
Touch me one more time and make me feel that I'm alive
And if we don't survive
And we'll end like we began
And even though it's over

Can't we try
Let's go back to yesterday
Just another helpless fool in love is what I am
But I don't give a damn
See, once before I set you free
I just got to hold you close to me

Can't we try
Love was never born to say goodbye
I want you to touch me, touch me one more time and make me feel that I'm alive
And if we don't survive
Then we can end like we began
And even though it's over

Can't we try
Let's go back to yesterday
See, I'm just another, just another helpless fool in-
In love is what I am
But I don't give a damn
See, once before I set you free
I got to have you

Can't we try
Love was never born to say goodbye

I can tell that you need someone in your life
That truly understands everything that you need
A man that can bring out all the things inside of you
That no one else has been able to see now

We're not children and this no childish game
Wish you'd let me touch you, you'll never ever be the same
We don't take advantage of this precious time
We have no one else to blame except you and I

Spend the night, spend the night with me
All your fantasies, you can share with me
Spend the night, spend the night with me
I'll take care of you, baby, you will see so much love

Say ain't it funny how things just seem to work out?
You know there are those things in life that we could never ever explain
So while I sit around tryin' to come up with an explanation
With a way that we both feel is drivin' us insane yeah

If you feel a least bit of doubt about anything I say
Don't take my word, I'll tell you in a different way
I'm the man who said, ?Come go with me
Turn out the lights and close the door?
I'll give you everything you want and a whole lot more

Spend the night, spend the night with me
All your fantasies, you can share with me
Spend the night, spend the night with me
I'll take care of you, baby, you will see so much love

Spend the night, spend the night with me
All your fantasies, you can share with me
Spend the night, spend the night with me
I'll take care of you, baby, you will see so much love

Spend the night, spend the night with me
All your fantasies, you can share with me
Spend the night, spend the night with me

Come lay your head on my heart
Soon it'll be apart, stay here to the touch of morning
I'm glad we're leaving as friends
Baby, by the way, I forgot to say

Can't we try, love was never born to say goodbye
Just another helpless fool in love is what I am
But I don't give a damn, sorry, I forgot myself
I guess that I'm just not myself

And I know that we're not supposed to cry
Love was supposed to die when people get to know each other
In case I don't see you again
Really wish you well, baby, this is hell

Can't we try, love was never born to say goodbye
Touch me one more time and make me feel that I'm alive
And if we don't survive
At least we'll have a moment here with honest pain and tears

Then say goodbye, come lay your head down on my heart
The morning suddenly leads you, you know, yet I don't need you
We can't go back to yesterday, go away
Girl, I wished you'd stay

Can't we try, love was never born to say goodbye
Touch me one more time and make me feel that I'm alive
And if we don't survive
Then we will end like we began and even though it's over

Can't we try, let's go back to yesterday, and I
Just another helpless fool in love is what I am
But I don't give a damn
See, once before I set you free, I just got to hold you close to me

Can't we try, love was never born to say goodbye
I want you to touch me, touch me one more time
And make me feel that I'm alive
And if we don't survive
Then we can end like we began and even though it's over

Can't we try, let's go back to yesterday, and I
See, I'm just another, just another helpless fool in, in love is what I am
But I don't give a damn
See, once before I set you free, I got to have you, I got to have you
[Incomprehensible]

Can't we try
Love was never born to say goodbye

All I need is you
All I need is you, baby
All I need is you
All I want is you

Stay with me through the night
Let me hold you close till morning light
Lay your head on my heart
Make love to me while it's still dark

Oh, no one but you
Could make me feel the way you do
You're all that I been praying for
'Cause the way you're loving me
I couldn't ask for anymore

All I need is you
See you're everything that I never had
And baby, all I need is you
See you're everything that I need so bad

I been in love once or twice
But I never found the love that's right
Until you came along
I was like a bird without a song

Oh, no one but you
Could make me feel the way you do
You're all that I, I been praying for
See 'cause the way you're loving me
I couldn't ask for anymore

All I need is you, see you're everything
Everything that I never had, never had
And all I need is you, you?re everything
Everything that I needed so bad, baby, oh

And there's nothing in the world that I wouldn't do

(All I need, all I want is you, baby)
Just as long as you stay here with me

You see, you?re everything
That a man could ever hope for, yeah
(All I need, all I want is you)
It's you, it's you, it's you, it's you, it's you

Baby, all I need is you
You're everything I need so bad
Baby, it's you, it's you
Yes, all I need is you

Good God almighty, you're everything
You're everything that I never had
I been looking for and never found it
It's you, baby

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

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

And you wanna get away
You wanna get away from this noisy crowd

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

Oh love when you were just within my reach
I was blind to find my dreams of being free
oh love it's not too late for you and me

Beleive in love
I thought that I could live without you

To find my dreams of being free

cause it's not over
Believe in love

There comes a time
When a man has to answer
For the things that he's done
No one to, no one can answer to
No one but the Man up above

See I have to live my life
But when it's all said and done
No matter what no one says

I'm still my Father's child
Oh yes, I am
And I know He'll take good care me

I'm still my Father's child
Oh yes, I am
I know, I know that He will
Take good care of me

When I'm alone
And I need someone that I can talk to
I hold, I hold out my hand
And I know I can say
I can say anything that's on my mind
Oh yes, I can, alright

See when things are going wrong
And there's trouble in my life
See I call out His name 'cause I know

I'm still my Father's child
Oh yes, I am, alright
And I know He'll take good care me

See, I'm still my Father's child
Oh yes, I am
I just wanna testify
He will, He will
Take good care of me, oh yeah

Anything I can ever need, that He's there
My Father, my Father
He carries me on His shoulder
And when I'm weak
He lifts me up, lifts me up

'Cause I'm still my Father's child, oh yeah
And I know that He's a part of me
No matter what I do, no matter what I say
I know, I know that He will
Take good care of me

Even when I'm up and even when I'm down
I?m still my Father's child, oh yeah
All I have to do is say

Father's child, Father's child

Baby, I, oh, I
I can't live without your love
See, I'm smilin' on the outside, while I'm just cryin' on the inside
Facin' a world without your love

See, the truth has come to light
You're the reason nothing's right
Alone again tonight
All just because of some silly fight

I, oh, oh, oh, I
I don't wanna give without your love, foolishly I suffer
I only pretend, oh, just to fool my friend
Don't know what to do with myself without your love

There's a wounded empty space
Nothing can replace that love
That love, that love, that love that I lost
You're my life, you mean so much to me

And I can't go it alone
This winding, this winding road is so long
So pack it up, baby, get it together
Let's start all over again

I, oh, oh, oh, I
I don't wanna live without your love
While I'm smiling on the outside, I'm just cryin' on the inside
Facin' a world without your love

See, I'm fightin' sleepless nights
Tears have washed all hope from sight
Oh, wouldn't it be, wouldn't it be so right
If I had you right here with me tonight
If you only reach out your hand and save a heartbroken man
I can't live

Nine times out of ten
I'm falling inlove with you
Starting to need you more
As time goes by

Nine times out of ten
I'm falling inlove with you
Starting want you more
As time goes By

Since the day i met you
I feel so good inside
My world has come alive
Since i've known you, known you

I can't forget you
Your always on my mind
I've got this strong desire
To be near you

Nine times out of ten
I'm falling inlove with you
Starting to need you more
As time goes by

Wanna get to know you
I call you on the phone
I feel so all alone
Me here and you there

You gave my life reason
You make my puzzle fit
Oh i've got love to give
And i wanna give it to you

Nine times out of ten
I'm falling inlove with you
Starting to need you more
As time goes by

{Solo Instrumental}

I say nine times out of ten
I'm falling in love with you
Starting to need you more
As time goes by

Nine times out of ten
I'm falling inlove with you
Starting to need you more
As time goes, time go-oh-goes by-y-y-y

I say this time, this time
I'm falling inlove-love-love-love with you
I'm pretty sure i need you more
As time goes by

You know love is the most over used word in the world today
You know everybody uses the phrase I love you so loosely
I bet you couldn't count the times you've said I love you
Some people are confused, they think liking is loving
Oh, but there's a big difference between liking and love

You know this calls to mind the last time you told me you loved me
So the next time you say I love you
I want you to know exactly what love really is

Love is not jealous, love it does not brag
Love don't get puffed up, love it never fails, it never fails
So tell me, tell me that you love me
Now that you know what love really, really, really is
So tell me, tell me, tell me that you love me
Come on, tell me, show me that your love is real, that your love is real

Know love rejoices over truth
Sometimes the truth hurts but will stand the test of time
You know love bears all things and believes all things
Love hopes all things and endures all things
So the next time you tell me you love me
I want you to know exactly what you're saying

'Cause love is not selfish, love is not provoked, no no no
Love is long suffering, love is oh so kind, it's oh so kind
Now tell me, tell me that you love me
Now that you know what love, really, really, really is
Now tell me, tell me, tell me that you love me
Come on, tell me, show me that your love is real

Is it real? Is it real what you feel?
If not you're liking instead of loving
Is it real what you feel?
You tell me you love me
Can you look me in my eyes and say you love me?
Now that you know what love is

Is it real what you feel?
'Cause if not, you're liking instead of loving
Tell me is it real?
I got to know what you feel
'Cause what I feel is real

I can stand right here and say I love you
I can stand right here and say I love you baby
Now that you know what love is, is it real?

Is it real what you feel?
Now that you know, now that you know what love is all about
Can you tell me is it real?
Is it real? Is it real? Is it real?
Is it real what you feel?

I, I saw her today
We just met by chance and we smiled a lot
Not knowing what to say
'Cause you see, she's over me

And I, I looked in her eyes
And I saw enough to make me realize
It's dead and gone, I don't have a prayer
Of getting her back where she used to be
She's over me

We stood a minute or two
And we talk like strangers do, saying nothing at all
No one who saw us would know
That once she loved me so

But I?d never dreamed that she'd ever
Would ever be the one to go, no
She got herself free and now she's over me

She's over me

I, I kissed her goodbye
And that kiss killed every hope that I held inside
It tore me all that we had before
Was nothing more than ancient history
I can truly, truly, truly see she had took her some time
But she's finally over me

But I don't know what went wrong
All I know is I spend my life now
Thinking of how good we were
Guess that she?s over me, but I'll never been over her

I've been so many places, I've seen so many things
But none quite so lovely as you
More beautiful than the Mona Lisa
Worth more than gold
And my eyes have the pleasure to behold

You're my latest and my greatest
My latest, my greatest inspiration

Things never looked clearer, peace within never felt nearer
My burden's gone, it's turned to a song
Tender as a baby's touch, I needed you, oh, so much
At last the load is so light

You're the latest and my greatest
My latest, my greatest inspiration

I plan to give you all that I have
I'll be everything, everything you think I am
You make life a joy to live
And I'm thankful, yes, I'm blessed just to know you

I've been so many places, I've seen so many things
But none quite so delectable as you
More beautiful than the Mona Lisa
Worth more than gold
And my eyes have the pleasure just to behold

You're my latest, tell you you're my greatest
My latest, my greatest inspiration
You inspire me, inspire me
Don't you know, my latest, my greatest inspiration

You keep just keep on liftin' me up now
(Higher) Mmm
(Higher) You inspire me, I want you to keep liftin' me up
(Higher)
(Higher)

I want you to keep on liftin' me up
(Higher) Alright
(Higher) Alright
See, you got me, you got me doin' things
(Higher) I've never done before
(Higher) See, you inspire me, you inspire me

Don't you know I love you, girl
(Higher) Hey, hey, hey
(Higher) Mmm, mmm, hmm
You, you, you, you keep on liftin' me
(Higher) Higher
(Higher) Higher

Higher, higher, you, you, you keep on liftin' me
(Higher) Higher
(Higher) Higher
Oh, oh
(Higher) You keep on liftin' me
(Higher) You keep on liftin' me
You know what you do to me

Come on keep on liftin' me
(Higher) High
(Higher) Higher
