girl i can't believe my ears
are you really telling me goodbye
see you're taking away
my reason for living
and you won't even tell me why
before you walk out the door
there's something i want you to know

that i could never ever love another
after loving you
ooohoo
no other love will i share
cause none can compare
after loving you

it was only yesterday
your words are still fresh in my mind
baby you said
long as the rivers flow
each day you'd love me more
now you wanna leave me behind
Listen baby
I don't know what it's gonna take to make you stay
I just know i've got to find a way

cause i could never never never ever love another
after loving you
ooohoo
no other will i share
cause none, none can compare
after loving you

so baby please stay beside me
I need your sweet love to guide me
Oh baby baby baby baby baby baby
( i could never love another)
oooohhhh after loving you
( i could never love another after loving you)

baby baby baby it was only only only only yesterday
your words are still fresh in my mind
i remember you said
long as the rivers flow
each day you'd love me more
now you wanna leave, leave me behind listen baby
I don't know what it's gonna take to make you stay
i just know i've got to find a way

I could never, never never never ever love another after loving you
ooohooo
no other love will i share 'cause none, none can compare after loving you
ooooooh baby, on my bended knees i'm beggin you to stay here with me

Ooooooh
Baby baby baby baby
I could never never ever never ever love another
after loving you
ooohoooo
no other love will I share cause none can compare
after loving you.

All my hopes and dreams are forgotten now
All the apples in my barrel are rotten now
Standing on a mountain of misery
Loneliness is my only company
Oh, when are gonna come cindy
When will you be homeward bound
I'm in need of you and the love of you Cindy

I thought we were birds of a feather now
And we would always be together now
And where ever i would go you would follow me
A life of love with you was my destiny
Oh, when you gonna come come home cindy
When will you be homeward bound
there's an empty space
since you left this place


Cindy, my cindy
Come back cindy comeback
Cindy you have made a great mistake
But mistakes were sometimes made to save
Cindy love is made of give and take
Let a move be made for love's sake
Come on home Cant you see
I was made for you,
you were made for me!

People tell me I'm not the same now
I only half respond to my name now
But no one knows it better than me myself baby
Without your love I can never be myself
Ohhhhhh, when you gonna come home cindyCindy, my cindy

. . .


sunshine blue skies please go away
my girl has found another
and gone away
with her went my future my life is filled with gloom
so day after day I stay locked up in my room
I know to you it might sound strange
but I wish it would rain (i wish it would rain)
ohh yeah yeah yeah

cuz so badly I wanna go outside (such a lovely day)
but everyone knows that a man ain't supposted to cry
I gotta cry cuz cryin eases the pain
people this hurt I feel inside
words could never explain I just wish it would rain
oh let it rain rain rain rain rain ohhhh baby let it rain

Day in day out my tear stained face
is pressed against the window panes
My eyes search the sky desperatly for rain
Cuz rain drops would hide my tear drops
and no one would ever know that I'm cryin cryin
when i go outside
to the world i outside my tears i refuse to explain
i just wish it would rain

. . .


please return your love to me girl/ forgive me for the wrong i've done/ and oh baby

i cry myself to sleep at night
for fear of another holdin you tight and oh baby/ oh baby
i miss you more with each passin day/
every night on my knees i pray oh

please return your love to me girl/
forgive me for the wrong i've done/
without your love im just no good/
i am just a lonely one

im sorry for the wrong i've done
now i know how it feels to lose that special someone
and oh baby/ i need you more than words can say/ without your love i can pass another day

chorus

i want you to know as long as there's/ a heaven above/
you'll be my one and only love/
and oh baby/ i cant control this growin' need
girl come and see about me

chorus

Once a wiseman said to me. This advice I give you free. A woman is made of fantasy so fan the flame. Always keep her hopes up high. Make her laugh don't make her cry and don't let her love die, so fan the flame.

A woman needs love and affection and little things mean alot (little things mean alot). And when she has an emotional baby. That's why you got to fan the flame to keep it burning hot.

Make her feel she ten feet tall, even though she short and small. so fan the falme. Her love is your reality let her go and you will see just how lonely life can be. So fan the falme.

A woman needs love and praising so give her them each day. Tell her you love her, its added protection. That's why you got to fan the falme to keep it burning hot.

Once a wiseman said to me. This advice I give you free. A woman is made of fantsy so fan the flame.

Alright...hmm...alright...hooo

A rose is a beautiful flower.
To me the prettiest in the world.
And that goes double, double for a girl cause she's like no other flower in the world.
Remember, they're not perfect you see. So you got to take the bitter with the sweet.
And remember fellas: he who picks a rose must accept the thorns it bears. (yeah, yeah, yeah).
Talking about the goood and the bad in a woman.

A rose remains so pretty if you treat it with loving care (yeah yeah yeah)
And that goes double double for a girl
Treat her right and her love she'll truly share
But you've got to take the bitter with the sweet and return the lowly moments of despair.
And remember fellas he who picks a rose must accept the thorns that's there...yeah yeah yeah yeah

Talking 'bout the good and bad in a woman...

I tell ya, tell ya...that a rose remains the same if you handle it with care (yeah yeah yeah)
And now that goes double double for a girl;
Treat her right and she'll stand besides you anywhere
I know sometimes they get carried away, say some things they don't mean to say.
Just remember fellas: he who picks a rose must accept the thorns it bears...yeah

Talking bout the good and bad in a woman
(He who picks a rose must accept the thorns it bears)

Gotta remember when you choose your lover
(He who picks a rose must accept the thorns it bears)

The day you take one, you've got to take the other
(He who picks a rose must accept the thorns it bears)

Why Did You Leave Me Darling

[No lyrics]

. . .


I'm sending you red roses and violets.
(Violets of...) blue, girl.
The roses mean I love you.
The violets mean I'll always be true, girl. (Be true, girl)

Because I really love you.
And I truly, truly believe, yes I do.
Inspite of the way you acting, that you love me too.
Come on and say it dear.

Hmm, you try, to keep me away, girl.
Just to prove you don't really care.
But I believe you feel the same way I do.
And this torture just ain't fair. (No, this torture just ain't fair)

I'm sending you a bracelet.
In grave in gold that, "I love you" girl. (Love you, girl)
And I'll send my heart if I could, to prove I'll always be true, girl.

Because I really love you.
And I truly, truly believe, yes I do.
Inspite of the way you acting, that you love me too.
Come on and say it dear.
Oh, say it dear.

[Instrumental]

I hope you'd understand.
That the red roses and violets of blue, girl, (Hope you'd understand)
And that bright shining bracelet, help me, baby, say 'I love you'. (I love you. Love you)

And I really love you.
And I truly, truly believe, yes I do. (Yes, I do)
I believe that you love me.
So baby, come on and say it.

A-Say it. (I truly believe, yes I do, yes I do, yes I do)
I truly, truly believe. (I truly believe, yes I do, yes I do, yes I do)
(I truly believe, yes I do, yes I do, yes I do)

This Is My Beloved

[No lyrics]

. . .


There's a train leaving here tomorrow. (Leaving here)
And I'll be a free, free man once again. (A free man)

I'm so glad I served my time, I'm gonna meet the girl that I left behind.
And when I see her, I'm gonna give her all the love I've got.
Ooo, when I see her, I'm gonna give her, little girl, all the love I've got.

There were times, there were times when each day seems like a year.
But the sweet things she said in her letters, made the times disappear, oh yeah.
She said, No one's arms will I let hold me 'cause in your arms is where I want to be.

So when I see her, I'm gonna give her, little girl, all the love I've got.
Ooo, when I see her... (I'm gonna give her all) all the love I've got.

Ooo, baby, baby, baby, I miss you so. Ugh!
Hmmm (Aw)

Countless nights I stared out my window at the moonlight, yes I did now.
Thinking about the way I used to hold her tight, oh yeah.
I must've been out of my mind to do the wrong I did and leave her behind.

So when I see her, I'm gonna give her all the love I've got.
Woo, when I see her, I'm gonna give her, little girl, all the love I've got.
Believe me when I tell ya
When I see her, I'm gonna give her all the love I've got.

. . .


life lands a crushing blow
and once again a heart is broken
and as history repeats it's self
these few words are sadly spoken

I've passed this way before.
i've felt this pain before
a hurt that took so long to end
has found my poor heart again

as i watch love walkin' away
it brings back old memories
a familiar pain still feels the same
once again heartache has found me
a dark cloud covered my heart ooh
when she told me goodbye
now there's nothing left but emptiness
and the tears that fill my cryin' eyes

i've pass this way before
i've felt this pain before
a hurt that took so long to end
has found my poor heart again

no matter how strong a man is
without a love he walks in the dark baby
if love deserts him it would surly hurt him
'cause his weakness is his heart
a lonely journey now stands before me
the endless pain has started
but this time i know the way
walkin' alone and broken hearted because

I've pass this way before
i've felt this pain before
A hurt that took so long to end
has found my poor heart again.

. . .


NO MAN CAN LOVE HER LIKE I DO!

Ah, he can buy her diamonds, he can buy her pearls,
He can send her on a trip, all around this world.
He can buy her anything her little heart desires
But he don't know how to set that little girl's soul on fire

Even though he drives a big fine Cadillac car,
And he keeps her dressed up (ah!) like a movie star.
Anything she asks of him, his money can buy
But when it comes down to love, she gives me a try!

No man can love her like I do…

Tell the truth, no man can love her like I do,
No man can love her like I do…
Even though I don't have one thin dime,
Everytime I call her, you know she's right on time.

No man can love her like I do…

Ain't no man in this land who can love her like I do!
No man can love her like I do!
