Oh friends, don't matter if you're
A man or a woman.
If you're in love with somebody,
These are the words that you got to learn to say.
Now listen carefully.
Here it comes...

I'll be loving you always
With a love that's true, always
When the thing you've planned
Needs my helping hand,
I will understand,
Always, always

Days may not be fair, always
Yeah but that's when I'll be there, always

Are you back in my life to stay
Or is it just for today
Oh that you're gonna need me?
If it's a thrill you're looking for
Honey, I'm flexible.
Oh, yeah.

Just be for real won't you, baby
Be for real oh, baby
You see I, I don't want to be hurt
By love again

So you see I'm not naive.
I just would like to believe
Ah what you tell me.
So don't give me the world today
And tomorrow take it away.

She stands before you naked
You can see it, you can taste it,
And she comes to you light as the breeze.
Now you can drink it or you can nurse it,
It don't matter how you worship
As long as you're
Down on your knees.

So I knelt there at the delta,
At the alpha and the omega,
At the cradle of the river and the seas.
And like a blessing come from heaven
For something like a second

Baby, Ive been waiting
Ive been waiting night and day
I didnt see the time
I waited half my life away
There were lots of invitations
And I know you sent me some
But I was waiting
For the miracle to come

I know you really loved me
But, you see, my hands were tied
I know it must have hurt you
It must have hurt your pride
To have to stand beneath my window
With your bugle and your drum
