Love for five long years
Since you were with me
Chain of love
Oh oh have rebel

For five long years
I thought you were my man
But I found out
I'm just a link in your chain

Oh, chain chain chain, chain chain chain
chain chain chain, chain chain chain
Chain of fools

You got me where you want me
I ain't nothing but your fool
You treated me mean yeah
Oh you treated me cruel

Every chain
Has got a weak link
I might be weak child
But I'll give you strength

Chain chain chain
Chain chain chain
Chain chain chain yeah
Chain of fools

You told me to leave you alone
My father said come on home
My doctor said take it easy
Oh but your lovin' is much too strong
I'm added to you

CHORUS
Chain chain chain
Chain chain chain
Chain chain chai-iai-iai-iai yeah
Chain of fools

One of these mornings
That chain is gonna break
But up until then
I'm gonna take all I can take

Oh oh oh yeah
Chain chain chain
Chain chain chain
Chain chain chai-iai-iai-iai yeah
Chain of fools

Why you wanna
Why you wanna
Why you wanna

. . .



Me and Mrs. Jones
We got a thing goin' on
We both know that it's wrong
But it's much too strong
To let it go now

We meet every day at the same cafe
Six-thirty I know I know she'll be there
Holding hands, making all kinds of plans
While the juke box plays our favorite songs

Me and Mrs. Mrs. Jones, Mrs Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones
We got a thing goin' on
We both know that it's wrong
But it's much too strong
To let it go now

We gotta be extra careful
That do we don't build our hopes up too high
Cause she's got her own obligations
And so, and so do I

Me and Mrs. Mrs. Jones, Mrs Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones
We got a thing goin' on
We both know that it's wrong
But it's much too strong
To let it go now

Well, it's time for us to be leaving
It hurts so much, it hurts so much down inside
Now she'll go her way snd I'll go mine
Tomorrow we'll meet
At the same place, the same time

Me and Mrs. Mrs. Jones, Mrs Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones
We got a thing goin' on, yes we do
We gotta be extra careful
We can't afford to build our hopes up too high
I wanna meet
At the same place, the same time
And we're gonna hold hands as we used to
I'm gonna talk it all loud
Ohh yes we will
We know, they know and you know I know that it was wrong
But baby I'll make it strong
Oh yes I will

. . .



Ooh, I bet you're wonderin' how I knew
Bout' your plans to make me blue
Some other girl ya knew before
Between the two of us girls you know I love you more
It took me by surprise I must say
When I found out yesterday
Don't you know that I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Oh, I heard it through the grapevine
Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey (I heard it through the grapevine, how much longer would you be
mine baby.)

Ohh I know a girl ain't supposed to cry
But these tears I can't hold inside
Losin' you would end my life you see
'cause you mean that much to me
You could've told me yourself
That you loved 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, (I heard it through the grapevine, how much longer would you be
mine baby.)

People say believe half of what you see
Son, and none of what you hear.
But I can't help but be confused
If it's true, please tell me dear
Do you plan to let me go
For the other girl you loved before?
You know I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Oh, I heard it through the grapevine
Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey, (I heard it through the grapevine, how much longer would you be
mine baby.)

I can't hide it
I can't fight it
Cause you mean that much to me
You know that I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Oh, I heard it through the grapevine
Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey, (I heard it through the grapevine, how much longer would you be

. . .



If you don't know me by now
You will never never never know me

All the things that we've been through
You should understand me like I understand you
Now baby I know the difference between right and wrong
I ain't gonna do nothing to upset our happy home
Oh don't get so excited when I come home a little late at night
'Cause we only act like children
when we argue fuss and fight

If you don't know me by now (If you don't know me by now)
You will never never never know me
If you don't know me by now (If you don't know me by now)
You will never never never know me

See, we've all got our own funny moods
I've got mine, boy you've got yours too
Just trust in me like I trust in you
As long as we've been together it should be so easy to do
Just get yourself together or we might as well say goodbye
What good is a love affair
If we can't see eye to eye, oh

If you don't know me by now
You will never never never know me
If you don't know me by now (I'm the only you've ever need)
You will never never never know me

If you don't know me by now
You will never never know me
(You better believe me, I'm telling you right now)


. . .



It's sad to think we're not gonna make it
And it's gotten to the point where we can't fake it
For some ungodly reason, we just won't let it die
I guess neither one of us wants to be the first to say goodbye

I keep on wondering what I'm gonna do without you
And I guess you must be wondering the same thing too
So we go on, go on together, living a lie
Cause neither one of us wants to be the first to say goodbye

Everytime I find the nerve
Everytime I find the nerve to say I'm leaving
Oh the memories, Oh the memories get in the way
Lord knows it's only me, he knows it's only me
That I'm cheating
When it comes to saying goodbye, that's just a simple word that I cannot just
say

There can be no way, there can be no way this can have a happy ending
So we go on lying and pretending
And convincing ourselves to give it just one more try
Cause neither one of us wants to be the first to say
Neither one of us wants to be the first to say
Neither one of us wants to be the first to say

. . .



My love
I'll never find the words, my love
To tell you how I feel, my love
Mere words could not explain
Precious love
You held my life within your hands
Created everything I am
Taught me how to live again

Only you
Cared when I needed a friend
Believed in me through thick and thin
This song is for you
Filled with gratitude and love

God bless you
You make me feel brand new
For God blessed me with you
You make me feel brand new
I sing this song 'cause you
Make me feel brand new

My love
Whenever I was insecure
You filled me up and made me sure
You gave my pride back to me
Precious friend
With you I'll always have a friend
You're someone who I can depend
To walk a path that sometimes bends

Without you
My life has no meaning or rhyme
Like notes to a song out of time
How can I repay
You for having faith in me

God bless you
You make me feel brand new
For God blessed me with you
You make me feel brand new
I sing this song 'cause you

. . .



Sittin' in the mornin' sun
I'll be sittin' when the evenin' come
Watching the ships roll in
Then I watch 'em roll away again, yeah

I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time

I left my home in Georgia
Headed for the Frisco bay
'Cause I've had nothing to live for
And look like nothin's gonna come my way

Now I'm just gonna sit on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
Ooo, I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time

Look like nothing's gonna change
Everything still remains the same
And I can't do what ten people tell me to do
So I guess I'll remain the same, yes

I'm sittin' here resting my bones
And this loneliness won't leave me alone
It's two thousand miles I roamed
Just to make this dock my home

Now, I'm just gonna sit on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time


. . .



L.A. proved too much for the man,
He couldn't make it
So he's leavin' the life he's come to know,
He said he's goin', said he's goin' back to find
Ooh, what's left of his world,
The world he left behind
Not so long ago.
He's leaving,
On that midnight train to Georgia,
Said he's goin' back to find
To a simpler place and time.
Oh yes he is
And I'll be with him
On that midnight train to Georgia,
I'd rather live in his world
Than live without him in mine.
He kept dreamin'
That someday he'd be a star.
But he sure found out the hard way
That dreams don't always come true.
Oh yes he did
So he pawned all his hopes
And he even sold his old car
Bought a one way ticket back
To the life he once knew,
Oh yes he did,
He said he would
He's leavin
On that midnight train to Georgia,
He said he's goin' back to find
To a simpler place and time.'
Oh yes he is
And I'll be with him
On that midnight train to Georgia,
I'd rather live in his world
Than live without him in mine.
Go, gonna board, gonna board,
Gonna board the midnight train.
Gotta go, gonna board
Gonna board
Gonna board the midnight train

I've got sunshine on a cloudy day.
When it's cold outside I've got the month of May.
Well I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl, my girl)
Talkin' 'bout my girl (my girl).
I've got so much honey the bees envy me.
I've got a sweeter song than the birds in the trees.
I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl, my girl)
Talkin' 'bout my girl (my girl).
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Ooooh.
I don't need no money, fortune, or fame. No no
I've got all the riches baby one man can claim.
Well I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl, my girl)
Talkin' 'bout my girl (my girl).
I've got sunshine on a cloudy day
with my girl.
I've even got the month of May

. . .



Though you don't call anymore
I sit and wait in vain
I guess I'll rap on your door
Tap on your window pane
I wanna tell you, baby
Changes I've been going through, missing you, missing you
'til you come back to me that's what I'm gonna do

Why did you have to decide
You had to set me free?
I'm gonna swallow my pride
Beg you to please, baby please see me
I'm gonna walk by myself
Just to prove that my love is true, all for you baby
'til you come back to me that's what I'm gonna do

Living for you, my dear
Is like living in a world of constant fear
Hear my plea
I've gotta make you see that our love is dying

Although your phone you ignore
Somehow I must, somehow I must explain
I'll have to rap on your door, tap on your window pane
I'm gonna camp by your steps
until I get through to you
I've gotta change your view
'til you come back to me that's what I'm gonna do
'til you come back to me that's what I'm gonna do

I'll have to rap on your door, tap on your window pane

. . .



There's a spark of magic in your eyes
Candyland appears each time you smile
Never thought that fairy tales came true
But they come true when I'm near you
You're a genie in disguise
Full of wonder and surprise

Betcha by golly, wow
You're the one that I've been waiting for forever
And ever will my love for you keep growin' strong
Keep growin' strong

If I could I'd catch a falling star
To shine on you so I'll know where you are
Order rainbows in your favorite shade
To show I love you, I'm thinking of you
Write your name across the sky
Anything you ask I'll try

Betcha by golly, wow
You're the one that I've been waiting for forever
And ever will my love for you keep growin' strong
Keep growin' strong

Betcha by golly, wow
You're the one that I've been waiting for forever (You're the only one for me
baby)
And ever will my love for you keep growin' strong
Keep growin' strong

Betcha by golly, wow
You're the one that I've been waiting for forever

. . .



Today I saw somebody
Who looked just like you
She walked like you do
I thought it was you

As she turned the corner
I called out your name
I felt so ashamed
When it wasn't you,
Wasn't you

You are everything, and everything is you
You are everything, and everything is you
You are everything, and everything is you
You are everything, and everything is you

How can I forget
When each face that I see
Brings back memories
Of being with you

I just can't go on living life as I do
Comparing each girl to you
Knowing they just won't do
They're not you

You are everything, and everything is you
You are everything, and everything is you
You are everything, and everything is you
You are everything, and everything is you
You are everything, and everything is you
No one in the world, love you like I do

. . .


Listen, baby
Ain't no mountain high
Ain't no valley low
Ain't no river wide enough, baby

If you need me, call me
No matter where you are
No matter how far
Don't worry, baby
Just call out my name
I'll be there in a hurry
You don't have to worry

'Cause baby,
There ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough
Ain't no river wide enough
To keep me from getting to you

Remember the day
I set you free
I told you
You could always count on me darling
And from that day on I made a vow
I'll be there when you want me
Some way,some how

'Cause baby,
There ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough
Ain't no river wide enough
To keep me from getting to you baby

Oh no darling
No wind, no rain
Nor winter's cold
Can stop me, babe
If you're ever in trouble
I'll be there on the double
Just sing for me, oh baby

My love is alive
Way down in my heart
Although we are miles apart
If you ever need a helping hand
I'll be there on the double
As fast as I can

'Cause baby,
There ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough
Ain't no river wide enough
To keep me from getting to you
