Labour of Love II lyrics

Where were you on our wedding day
I got the bad news that you went away
Where were you little girl I say
Where were you on our wedding day
Give me back my ring
I ain't gonna let you keep a thing
Where were you when I said I do
Everybody laughing at my fine new suit
Now were where you on our wedding day
Give me back my ring.
I ain't gonna let you keep a thing

You got a smile so bright
You know you could have been a candle
I'm holding you so tight
You know you could have been a handle
The way you swept me off my feet
You know you could've been a broom
And baby you smell so sweet
You know you could've been some perfume
[Chorus:]
Well you could of been anything that you wanted to
I can tell
The way you do the things you do
As pretty as you are

I'm gonna wear you to the ball tonight
Put on your best dress tonight
Did you hear what the man said baby
Well be your best 'cause this
gonna be a musical test
So come to school, and I take up the musical rule
Give me soul brothers and give me soul sisters
Come To I and maybe you can make it if you try
So be wise and be changing, put on your best
Because I got your musical key

I get my kicks from watching people
Running too and fro
And if you ask them where they're going
Half of the don't know
They're the ones who think I'm crazy
But they don't realize
That I'm just groovin', groovin'
Grooving out on life
I'm just groovin' ooh groovin'
groovin' till I die
I see a river flowing by me
Heading for the sea
I get a feeling deep inside me
It's so good to be free

I can't believe that it's real
The way that you make me feel
A burning deep down inside
A love that I cannot hide
I know it's you and me babe
That makes the world go round
Ah keeping you in love with me baby
Laying all my troubles down
[Chorus:]
Here I am babe, come and take me
Here I am babe, wont ya come and take me
Take me by the hand, ooh show me
Here I am babe, oooooaaah

Tears from my eyes keep on falling
cause you are leaving, leaving with another
Things that we've done together
I'll always remember though you're with another, baby.
Tears from my eyes keep on falling
cause you are leaving, leaving with another
Things that we've done together
I'll always remember though you're with another, baby.
I've done everything one man can do, girl

I know, and you know it true that
this love is really really true and
I know, and you know it true that
this love is really really true and
I want tell your friends, no other kinda way
There's one thing you should know, you are just another girl
Just another girl, that's what you are
You are just another girl, bigger eyes but you are not that small

It must have broke your poor little heartWhen we were together
Those were the happiest time in all my life
Now were separated I don't know what I will do
'Cause I can't ever love another
No matter how hard I try
'Cause I know. It's impossible,
Where ever you may be
I hope you'll hear my song
Then maybe you'll realise
My love that you were wrong
'Cause I can't ever love another

Baby be true and I'll give my love to you,
I need you baby.
Treat me right and I'll love you day and night,
I mean it baby.
When you're down I'll be around,
To guide you baby.
When you're free just call on me, baby.
I'll give my heart to you, now babe.
I'll do what you ask me too, now babe.
I mean it baby.
I'm gonna treat you, treat you right
I'm gonna love you day and night

I've got to find sweet cherry
She's gone away from home
I've got to find sweet cherry
She's left me all alone
Cherry, Cherry,
Don't go and leave me alone
Don't go and leave me alone
My thoughts are always with you
The emptiness leaves me blue
If you should ever desert me
Then life deserts me too
Cherry, Cherry,
Don't go and leave me alone
Don't go and leave me alone

Where were you on our wedding day
I got the bad news that you went away
Where were you little girl I say
Where were you on our wedding day
Give me back my ring
I ain't gonna let you keep a thing
Where were you when I said I do
Everybody laughing at my fine new suit
Now were where you on our wedding day
Give me back my ring.
I ain't gonna let you keep a thing

It must have broke your poor little heartWhen we were together
Those were the happiest time in all my life
Now were separated I don't know what I will do
'Cause I can't ever love another
No matter how hard I try
'Cause I know. It's impossible,
Where ever you may be
I hope you'll hear my song
Then maybe you'll realise
My love that you were wrong
'Cause I can't ever love another

Stick by me and I'll stick by you
Stick by me and I'll stick by you
My life here on earth would be useless can't you see
If I didn't have you to stick by me
I love you darling and that's no lie
Stick by me and I'll stick by you
When you cry I cry too
Stick by me and I'll stick by you
Friends may try to hurt us
Scandalise our name
But no one (no-one) can tear us apart
You have a place in my heart

I know, and you know it true that
this love is really really true and
I know, and you know it true that
this love is really really true and
I want tell your friends, no other kinda way
There's one thing you should know, you are just another girl
Just another girl, that's what you are
You are just another girl, bigger eyes but you are not that small

It must have broke your poor little heart
When the boys used to say,
you looked better in the dark.
But now they'd give all they learnt in school
To be somewhere in the dark with you
The teacher would ask the questions
And you, would always raise your hand
But somehow you never got your turn
And my eyes would fill with water, inside I'd burn
Homely girl, you used to be so lonely

Stick by me and I'll stick by you
Stick by me and I'll stick by you
My life here on earth would be useless can't you see
If I didn't have you to stick by me
I love you darling and that's no lie
Stick by me and I'll stick by you
When you cry I cry too
Stick by me and I'll stick by you
Friends may try to hurt us
Scandalise our name
But no one (no-one) can tear us apart
You have a place in my heart

The night seems to fade,
But the moonlight lingers on
There are wonders for everyone
The stars shine so bright,
But they're fading after dawn
There is magic in Kingston Town
Oh Kingston Town,
The place I long to be
If I had the whole world
I would give it away
Just to see, the girls at play
Ooh, ooh, ooh
And when I am king,
surely I would need a queen
And a palace and everything, yeah

It must have broke your poor little heart
When the boys used to say,
you looked better in the dark.
But now they'd give all they learnt in school
To be somewhere in the dark with you
The teacher would ask the questions
And you, would always raise your hand
But somehow you never got your turn
And my eyes would fill with water, inside I'd burn
Homely girl, you used to be so lonely

I've got to find sweet cherry
She's gone away from home
I've got to find sweet cherry
She's left me all alone
Cherry, Cherry,
Don't go and leave me alone
Don't go and leave me alone
My thoughts are always with you
The emptiness leaves me blue
If you should ever desert me
Then life deserts me too
Cherry, Cherry,
Don't go and leave me alone
Don't go and leave me alone
