You ever want something
That you know you shouldn't have
The more you know you shouldn't have it
The more you want it
And then one day you get it
It's so good too

But it's just like my girl when she's around me
I just feel so good, so good
But right now, I just feel cold
So cold right down to my bones
'Cause ooh...

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
It's not warm when she's away
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And she's always gone too long
Anytime she goes away

I wonder this time where she's gone
I wonder if she's gone to stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime she goes away

Oh yeah

I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, know, know, know, know
I know, I know
Hey I ought to leave
Hey I ought to leave her alone
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Only darkness everyday yeah
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime she goes away

I Wanna Be Where You Are

Can it be I stayed away too long?
Did I leave your mind when I was gone?
It's not my thing trying get back
But this time let me tell you where I'm at

You don't have to worry cause I'm comin'
Back to where I should have always stayed
And now I've heard the maybe to your story
And it's enough, love, for me stay

Can it be I stayed away too long?
Did I leave your mind when I was gone?
It's not my thing trying get back
But this time let me tell you where I'm at

Chorus:
I wanna, wanna be where you are, oh oh
Anywhere you are, oh oh
I wanna wanna be where you are, oh oh
Everywhere you are, oh oh

There's so many things we haven't tried
I could love you better than I used to
And give you all the love I have inside

[Instrumental]

Chorus:

Girl, Don't Take Your Love From Me

Foolish of me, I couldn't see the forest for that trees
You've been so true, I've been so cruel to you
Oh, girl please don't leave me
If you stay I'll find a way to erase the past
Baby don't leave me
Girl don't take your love from me
Oh girl

What can I say to make you stay?
Baby, don't leave me
'Cause you've been so kind
It blows my mind to know
Oh, girl, I reaaly hurt you

Tell me girl, it's not too late
And you'll give me a chance
To make it up to you
Pour te faire changer d'avis
Didn't take your love from me
Girl don't take your love

Girl, if you take your love away from me
I'm gonna be in misery
You know that's it's true that I lean upon
How will I make up for what is gone?
Of all the little things I wanted to say
Or really wanted to do, girl
This time, ooh

Oh girl, I really mean it
So tell me girl, it's not too late
And you'll give me a chance
To make it up to you
Don't take your love from me
Don't take your love
Don't take your love

Don't leave me girl
Don't take your love from me
Baby don't take your love from me
Don't take your love from me

In Our Small Way

Chorus:
Maybe you and I can't do great things
We may not change the world in one day
But we still can change some things today...
In our small way

Empty words are not enough
Where there's hurt we'll be a crush
When there's thirst we'll fill each other's cup
Because we care we love enough to share

Chorus:
Maybe you and I can't do great things
We may not change the world in one day
But we still can change some things today...
In our small way

In despair we'll be the hope
And the prayer that frees the soul
We'll be there to share each lonely road
Because we love, I know
We care enough

Chorus:
Maybe you and I can't do great things
We may not change the world in one day
But we still can change some things today...
In our small way

Just a little time is all it takes
What a difference just a smile can make, you'll see
Love is all we need

Chorus:
Maybe you and I can't do great things
We may not change the world in one day
But we still can change some things today...
In our small way

Got To Be There

Got to be there
(Got to be there)
Be there... in the morning
When she says "hello" to the world

Got to be there
(Got to be there)
Got to... be there,
Bring her good time
And show her that's she's my girl

Oooh... what a feeling I'll be
(...What a feeling I'll be)
The moments I know she loves me...
Cause when I look in her eyes,
I realize...
I need her sharing the world beside... me

So I've got to be there
(Got to be there)
Be there... in the morning
And welcome to my world

And show her that she's my girl
When she says "hello".... world
(Got to be there)
I need her sharing the world beside... me

That's why I've... got to be there
(Got to be there)
Got to... be there
When love begins
And that's everywhere she goes

I've got to be there so she knows
That when she's with me, she's home...
(Oooh...she's home-ooo he she's home)

Got to be there
Got to be... there
(Got to be there...)
Got to be... there
(Got to be there...)
Got to be... there
(Got to be there...)
Got to be... there
(Got to be there...)
Got to be... there
(Got to be there...)

Love Is Here And Now You're Gone

Love is here and
Oh, my darling, now you're gone
Love is here and
Oh, my darling, now, now you're gone

You persuaded me to love you
And I did
But instead of tenderness
I found heartache instead
Into your arms I felt
So unaware of the loneliness
That was waiting there

You close the door to your heart
And you turned the key, locked your love away from me

Love is here and
Oh, my darling, now you're gone

You made me love you
And oh, my darling, now you're gone
You said loving you
Would make life beautiful
With each passing day
But as soon as love
Came into my heart
You turned and you walked, just walked away

You stripped me of my dreams
You gave me faith, then took my hope
Look at me now

Look at me
See what loving you has done to me
Look at my face
See how cryin' has left it's trace

After you made me all your own
Then you left me all alone
You made your words sound so sweet
Knowing that your love I couldn't keep

My heart cries out for your touch
But you're not there
And the lonely cry fades in the air

Love is here and
Oh, my darling, now you're gone
Love is here and
Oh, my darling, now, now you're gone

You made me love you
Oh, my darling
Now you're gone
You made me love you
Oh, my darling
Now you're gone

You've Got A Friend

When you're down and troubled
And you need some lovin care
And nothing, no nothing is going right
Just close your eyes and think of me
And soon I'll be there
To brighten up yeah
Even your darkest night

Chorus:
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running, yeah yeah
To see you again

Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there yes I will

You've got a friend...

When the sky above you
Grows dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind
Yeah.. it begins to blow

Here's what you do baby
Keep your head together, together baby
And call my name out loud
And soon you'll hear me knockin'
Knockin' at your door
Yes I will, Yes I will

Chorus:
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running, yeah yeah
To see you again

Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there yes I will
Aint it good to know that you've got a friend
People can be so cold...
They'll hurt you, yeah, and desert you
And take your soul if you let them
But don't let them
No no no don't let them
Hmmm Mmmm

Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there yes I will
