I'm The One You Need

Now you say... everytime you need some affection
The one you love goes in another direction
You just sit back in a daze reunising
'cause you know some other lips, she's been kissing

Now when you need the love you never saw you come 'round here
And when you need some loving arms to hold you come 'round here
Now i may not be the one you want (honey, honey)
But i know, i'm the one you need (honey, honey)
Say now, i may not be the one you want (honey, honey)
But, i know, i'm the one you need (honey, honey)

Your life stands still the minute he goes
You count the hours just hoping he shows

Girl, can't you see while you're looking for his touch (honey, honey)
That i won't want to love you so much (honey, honey)
And while you're looking for kissing friends (honey, honey)
You're lovely with the tears on your face (honey, honey)

Now when you feel the need to cry to someone cry to me
And when you feel the need to lean on someone lean on me
Now, i may not be the one you want (honey, honey)
But i'm sure not the one you need (honey, honey)
Now, i may not be the one you want (honey, honey)
But i'm sure not the one you need (honey, honey)

Now, the day, the days, the days you sit round by yourself
He's out fooling round with somebody else
Leaving you alone here with nothing to do
He's just waiting till he has time for you

Now, when the loveliness gets hard to play, girl come 'round here
And when you need a little chicken lover care, girl come 'round here

Now, i may not be the one you want (honey, honey)
But, i'm sure not the one you need (honey, honey)
Now, i may not be the one you want (honey, honey)
But, i'm sure not the one you need (honey, honey)

One More Chance

Everybody loves the star
When he's on the top
But noone ever comes around
When he starts to drop

But you were someone special
You stuck through thick and thin
But I was much too busy
Trying to shine
To let your love shine in

Let you slip away
I must have been insane
Stop in the name of love
Don't make me live my life in vain

(Chorus)
Give me one more chance
That's all I ask of you
Just one more chance
I'll make it up to you
Just one more chance
That's all I ask of you
I'll build you a world for two
I'll make it up to you

Now since I'm all alone
I'm talking to myself
I know you're out there somewhere
Having fun with someone else

But a distant voice of hope
Echo from within, sayin'
(Don't give up)
(Your ship is comin' in)

Though my ship's alone
I'll play right to the end
I'm crying outside
heaven's door
Won't you let me back in


You'll never know
What I've been through
Let your love shine in again
This time I'll shine with you

Don't Know Why I Love You

oh, sure don't baby, baby, baby... ooh, ooh
i don't know why i love you
i don't know why i love you
i don't know why i love you but i love you
always treat me like a fool
kick me when i'm down that you do
i don't know why i love you, but i love you
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
oh you'll never, you'll never stop your cheating ways
with another guy you laugh in my face
lord i know 'cause i feel disgrace
'cause i love you, oh, baby, baby, baby
i don't know why i love you
i don't know you and me, baby, oh yeah
i don't know why i love you, but i love you, baby
oh darling, darling, darling, darling ...
you throw my heart down in the dirt
oh, you make me cry
on this cold black earth, baby yeah
i never knew, i never knew how much i could hurt
'til i love you baby, baby, baby, baby, yeah
can't stop, i can't stop crying can't you see
here i'm pleading on my knees, upon my knees, yeah baby, yeah
won't you help me, help me, please,
'cause i love you, love you, love you, ohh
(you know , baby)
i don't know, we don't know, we don't know
(i don't know why i love you)
i don't know why i love you baby, baby (i don't know, i don't know)
i don't know why i love you baby, baby...

Never Had A Dream Come True

I NEVER, NEVER HAD A DREAM COME TRUE
IN MY EVERY DAYDREAM
I'M LOVED BY YOU

AND WE'RE FREE AS THE WIND, AH YEAH
AND TRUE LOVE IS NO SIN
THEREFORE MEN ARE MEN NOT MACHINES

I NEVER, NEVER HAD A DREAM COME TRUE
WITHOUT YOU THE WORLD OUT THERE
IS PAINTED SHADES OF BLUE, YEAH

SINCE OUR ROADS NEVER CROSS
I WORK JUST TO PLEASE THE BOSS
THINK I MIGHT AS WELL GET LOST IN MY DREAMS

I NEVER HAD A DREAM COME TRUE
I GUESS I'M GONNA, I'M GONNA DREAM YOU ABOUT YOU BABY
MY WHOLE LIFE THROUGH, YEAH

SEEMS MY FOLKS ARE ASHAMED, AH YEAH
SAID I AIN'T WORTH A THING LORD, LORD
BUT I'M GLAD I AM CHAINED TO MY DREAMS

La-la Means I Love You

Many guys have come to you
With a line that wasn't true
And you passed them by
Are you in the center ring
And their lines don't mean a thing
Why don't you let me try
No, I don't wear a diamond ring
I don't even know a song to sing

Chorus
All I know is la-la la-la la-la la-la la means, I love you
Oh, baby, please, now
La-la la-la la-la la-la la means, I love you

If I ever saw a girl
That I needed in this world
You are the one for me
Let me hold you in my arms
Girl, and thrill you with my charms
I'm sure you will see
The things I am sayin' are true
Listen to me

Chorus

The things I am sayin' are true
And the way I explain them to you
Yes, to you Listen to me

Chorus

I Found That Girl

Jackson Five: Oooh, Oooh-Oooh-Oooh, Oooh, Oooh-Oooh-Oooh,
Mama, oh mama, I found that girl
Mama, oh mama, I found that girl

Jermaine: Mama, blind for me now
Is a new sensation
Just like, you said it would be
With the right situation
Now love has a meaning
And I...have a goal
This feeling inside me now
May chance to be a 100 years old
Now I understand
J5: I understand
Jermaine: What it is to be a man
J5:To be a man
Jermaine: The way you explained it to me that day,
You said only the right girl
Can make me feel this way

Well mama, I think I found that girl
J5: I found that girl
Jermaine: Yeah, yeah
Mama, I think I found that girl
J5: I found that girl

Jermaine: Oooh, mama, she's that beautiful dream
That I dream each night,
She's that hurdle of....
On those wings, of their flight
She's those words left,
When there's no more to say
She's my sunshine
At the end, of a perfect day

Jermaine: All this lets me find
J5: Let's me find
Jermaine: A reason to be alive
J5: To be alive

Jermaine: That day, when you set me upon your knee,
You said only the right girl can be all these things

Jermaine: Mama, I think I found that girl
J5: I found that girl
Jermaine: Mama, I think I found that girl
J5: I found that girl

Jermaine: You said son, go on and search around,
There's a good girl, who's out there, to be found

Jermaine: And Mama, I think I found that girl
J5: I found that girl
Jermaine: Yeah, yeah mama, I think I found that girl
J5: I found that girl

Jermaine: Whoa-ho-ho, whoa-ho-ho, um-hum, hum hum
Mama, I know, I know I found that girl
