Diana Ross Lyrics

Diana Ross (1970)

Reach Out And Touch (Somebody's Hand) lyrics - Diana Ross

Reach out and touch

Somebody's hand

Make this world a better place

If you can

Reach out and touch

Somebody's hand

Make this world a better place

If you can

(Just try)

Take a little time out of your busy day

To give encouragement

To someone who's lost the way

(Just try)

Or would I be talking to a stone

If I asked you

To share a problem that's not your own

We can change things if we start giving

Why don't you

Reach out and touch

Somebody's hand

Make this world a better place

If you can

Reach out and touch

Somebody's hand

Make this world a better place

If you can

(Just try)

If you see an old friend on the street

And he's down

Remember his shoes could fit your feet

(Just try)

Try a little kindness you'll see

It's something that comes very naturally

We can change things if we start giving

Why don't you

Reach out and touch

Why don't you (Why don't you)

Reach out and touch somebody's hand

Reach out and touch

Somebody's hand

Make this world a better place

If you can

Reach out and touch

Somebody's hand

Make this world a better place

If you can

Now That There's You lyrics - Diana Ross

Now that there's you

I can get up in the morning

Look down the lonesome road

Know that I have the strength to carry on

Now that there's you

Love abides in my soul

I have a purpose, I have a goal

I can reach out and touch the star

Yesterday it seemed so far

Now that there's you, oh you

No matter the trial

I'll get by 'coz I know there's an answer

Somewhere in your smile

Now that there's you

I can reach that mountain top

'Till I get there I won't stop

I've a new sense of pride

It makes me do things I never tried

Now that there's you oh, you

I can feel I am real

At last I taste the honey

I'm alive for the first time

And the sun shines over

Now that there's you

Hey, you

Oh oh oh oh

I see all the colours the world was supposed to be

And now a robin sings and I know there's spring

Now that there's you

Every day I seem to find a new dimension of my mind

I'm no longer a piece of clay

My heart has some buried lungs to say

Now that there's you, oh you

I can feel I am real

At last I taste the honey

I'm alive for the first time

And the sun shines over

Now that there's you

Thank you baby

I feel I am real

At last I taste the honey

I'm alive for the first time

And the sun shines over

Now that there's you

I'm real I'm real

At last I taste the honey

I'm alive for the first time

And the sun shines over

Now that there's you

La la la la la

La la la la la la la

I'm alive for the first time

And the sun shines over

Now that there's you

I'm real I'm real

At last I taste the honey

I'm alive for the first time

And the sun shines over

Now that there's you

You're All I Need To Get By lyrics - Diana Ross

When I was just a little girl

I wanted the world at my feet

Now all that's changed

'Cause I have love

And now I do can see

You're all I need to get by

Like the sweet morning dew

I took one look at you

And it was plain to see

You were my destiny

With arms open wide

I threw away my pride

I'll sacrifice for you

Dedicate my life to you

I will go, where you lead

Always there in time of need

And when you lose your will

I'll be there to push you up the hill

There's no, no looking back for us

We've got love

Sure enough

That's enough

You're all I need to get by

All, you're all I need to get by

Like an mother protects his nest

For you I'll do my best

Stand by you like a tree

Dare anybody to try to move me

Darling in you I found

Strength where I was torn down

Don't know what's in store

But together we can open any door

Just to do what's good for you

And inspire you a little higher

I know you can make a woman

Out of a soul that didn't have a goal

'Cause we, we got the right foundation

And with love and determination

You're all I want to strive for and do a little more

All, all the joys under the sun wrapped up into

You're all I need to get by

All, you're all I need to get by

These Things Will Keep Me Loving You lyrics - Diana Ross

Oh and I know these things will keep me loving you dear

Say it again

These things will keep me loving you dear

A gentle touch upon my face baby

A tender kiss and a warm embrace honey

Oh a few kind words

Spoken so sincere

And I know and I know

These things will keep me loving you dear

Give me your shoulder so I can cry on it baby

Oh give me advice that I can rely on honey

Oh say you love me every day of the year

And I know and I know

These things will keep me loving you dear

Say it again

These things will keep me loving you dear

Oh and I know these things will keep me loving you dear

Oh baby baby

Call me each night on the telephone baby

Oh send me a card when you're far from home honey

Oh hold me close to you baby every time you're near

And I know and I know

These things will keep me loving you dear

Oh, loving you dear

Ain't No Mountain High Enough lyrics - Diana Ross

If you need me, call me

No matter where you are

No matter how far

Just call my name

I'll be there in a hurry

On that you can depend and never worry

No wind, (no wind)

No rain, (no rain)

Nor winter's cold

Can stop me, babe

(Oh, babe) baby (baby)

If you're my goal

No wind, (no wind)

No rain, (no rain)

Can stop me, babe

If you wanna go

I know, I know you must follow the sun

Wherever it leads

But remember

If you should fall short of your desires

Remember life holds for you one guarantee

You'll always have me

And if you should miss my lovin

One of these old days

If you should ever miss the arms

That used to hold you so close, or the lips

That used to touch you so tenderly

Just remember what I told you

The day I set you free

Ain't no mountain high enough

Ain't no valley low enough

Ain't no river wild enough

To keep me from you

Ain't no mountain high enough

Ain't no valley low enough

(Say it again)

Ain't no river wild enough

To keep me from you

Ain't no mountain high enough

Nothing can keep me

Keep me from you

Ain't no mountain high enough

Ain't no valley low enough

(Say it again)

Ain't no river wild enough

To keep me from you

Ain't no mountain high enough

Nothing can keep me

To keep me from you

Something On My Mind lyrics - Diana Ross

Something's on my mind

It's been troubling me a long long time

Now I think it would best

If you knew

Just how much I'm in love with you

I don't think it's fair

You walk by and pretend I'm not there

Boy don't you know

What you're putting me through

And just how long I've been wanting you

I've waited patiently

For you to come to me

And I've stood in long as I can

Now I've got to know

Got to know just where I stand

And I hope you're gonna say

All this time you've been feeling the same way

And you were playing such a silly silly game

And my loving you hasn't been in vain

Baby don't you know

And I hope you're gonna say

All this time you were feeling the same way

And you were playing such a silly silly game

And my loving you hasn't been in vain

Something's on my mind

Just how much I need you baby

Ah something's on my mind

That's been troubling me a long long time

Baby baby, something's on my mind

I Wouldn't Change The Man He Is lyrics - Diana Ross

I've got a funny kind of guy

Nobody knows him

Any better than I

Says without me

He can get along

But I know that's just a man's way

Of saying he's strong

But I wouldn't change him no

Oh I wouldn't change his funny ways

'Cause he's the cause of my sunny days

And though sometimes he brings me little tears

Still love the man he is

If I do something to please him

He never gives me credit

If I think he'll bring me candy and roses

Huh, I might as well forget it

He's the kind of a man

Who likes his privacy

And when a mood hits him

I know when to let him be

But I wouldn't change him no

I wouldn't change his funny, funny ways

'Cause he's the cause of my sunny days

And though sometimes he brings me little tears

Still love the man he is

Sometimes when he hurts me so bad

I think I've got migraine in the head

All he has to do is touch me

Tears disappear

I'll forgive him in a minute

I have to pretend

There ain't much I know

He's the kind of a man

Who likes to run the show

But I wouldn't change him, no

I wouldn't change his funny ways

'Cause he's the cause of my sunny days

Though sometimes he brings me little tears

Still love the man he is

Oh I love that man

I wouldn't change his funny ways

And I wouldn't change the man he is..

Keep An Eye lyrics - Diana Ross

Keep an eye

On your close friend

Keep an eye

On your close friend

'Cause what you got that'll make you lose

And then turn around and step in your shoes

I say they'll turn around

And step in your shoes

I stood there numb

Watchin' my friend walk away

With my love on her arm

Oh, what she said was

"Sorry for what I had to do

But you see I love him just as much as you"

Keep an eye

On your close friend

Keep an eye

You better watch out

For your close friend

The devil's workshop is a busy place

On top of evil there's an innocent face

Oh, on top of evil he puts an innocent face

She was just like a spider

Only twice as smart

Kindness was a thread

She used to weave my world apart

There were three of us seen all over town

Now there's only two

Someone's missing guess who

Now I see how she schemed and

Worked her way in between

Planted seeds of mistrust

To make us fight unaware

Her comforting ways when I would cry

Shadowed the look of triumph in her eye

Just like a snake on the limb tree

A friend is an enemy you can see

'Cause what you got that'll make you lose

And then turn around and step in your shoes

I said they'll turn around

And step in your shoes

So you better keep an eye on your close friend

You better watch out for your close friend

Don't trust nobody

Keep an eye on your close friend

Keep an eye

Don't trust nobody

Keep an eye on your close friend

You better watch out for your close friend

She was just like a spider

Only twice as smart

Where There Was Darkness lyrics - Diana Ross

Where there was darkness

You came and now there's

An abundance of light

Nothing but sinkin' sand

Suddenly I reach out

There's your hand

What a feeling it is to know

You're in my corner

And you won't let me go

And now I know that

I won't be alone no more

I'll give you all I have

And if you teach me

I will learn to give you more

You are my anchor now

And like a ship at sea

Ooh, your love will steady me

What a feeling this is to know

You're in my corner

And you won't let me go

And now I know that

I won't be alone no more

I'm so glad

Just wanna thank you baby

What a feeling this is to know

You're in my corner

And you won't let me go

What a feeling this is to know

You're in my corner

And you won't let me go

What a feeling this is to know

You're in my corner

And you won't let me go

Thank you baby

What a feeling this is to know

You're in my corner

And you won't let me go

Can't It Wait Until Tomorrow lyrics - Diana Ross

I know you're standing there

Trying to say the words

You took so long to prepare

But I laugh, pretending I don't see

Cause I don't wanna hear

What you got to say to me

Can't it wait until tomorrow

Before you bring me the showers

Can't it wait until tomorrow

Give me 24 more hours

I 've seen it coming for quite sometime now

Don't you know I've tried to stop it

In every way I know how

And I know it's hard for you

As it is for me

So listen to my heart

Begging desperately

Can't it wait until tomorrow

Before you bring me the showers

Oh wait until tomorrow

Give me 24 more hours

Baby please give me 24 more hours

Can't it wait until tomorrow

Before you bring me the showers

Can't it wait until tomorrow

Give me 24 more hours

Can't it wait until tomorrow

Before you bring me the showers

Oh wait until tomorrow

Give me 24 more hours

Dark Side Of The World lyrics - Diana Ross

Don't leave me, don't leave me here

On the dark side of the world

My days are darker than your nights

Since I lost you babe

I'm like an ember

Fading out of sight

One more tear and I know I'll disappear

Bring back the sunshine

That you took away

Cause I need ya

And I want ya

Just don't think I'm gonna make it without your love

Don't you know

Such a loneliness I've never known

Since I lost you babe

I'm like a woman who once knew splendour

Now all her wealth and riches

They are gone

Bring back the sunshine

That you took away

Cause I need ya

And I want ya

And I just don't think I'm gonna make it without your love

Bring back the sunshine that you took away

Now my future lies in back of me

Since I lost you babe

I walk this lonely road to eternity

Just despair and emptiness everywhere

Bring back the sunshine

That you took away

Cause I need ya

And I want ya

I just don't think I'm gonna make it without your love

Don't leave me, don't leave me here

On the dark side of the world

Oh don't you leave me here

On the dark side of the world

Cause I need ya

Ooh you know I want ya

Right here on the dark side of the world

Cream Of The Crop (1969) - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Someday We'll Be Together lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Someday we'll be together

Say, say, say it again

Someday we'll be together

Oh, yeah, oh yeah

You're far away

From me my love

And just as sure my, my baby

As there are stars above

I wanna say, I wanna say, I wanna say

Someday we'll be together

Yes we will, yes we will

Say, someday (some sweet day) we'll be together

I know, I know, I know, I know

My love is yours, baby

Oh, right from the stars

You, you, you posses my soul now honey

And I know, I know you own my heart

And I wanna say:

Someday we'll be together

Some sweet day we'll be together

Yes we will, yes we will

Someday (tell everybody) we'll be together

Yes we will, yes we will

Long time ago

My, my sweet thing

I made a big mistake, honey

I said, I said goodbye

Oh, oh baby

Ever, ever, ever since that day

Now, now all I wanna do is cry, cry

Hey, hey, hey

I long for you every night

Just to kiss your sweet, sweet lips

Hold you ever, ever so tight

And I wanna say

Someday we'll be together

Can't You See It's Me lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

I know where you've been

As surely as you stand there

You're seeing her again

Don't say you haven't been there

It's in your eyes

There's no misunderstanding

I've seen that look before

The last time you left me stranded

Oh no my love,

Don't go my love

You know I how try to satisfy

You can't deny that I've been good to you

Can't you see

It's me who loves you babe

Can't you see

It's me who needs you babe

I'm the one you can always depend on

I'm the one who's always here

Does she give you something

That I just don't possess

Are my kisses not as sweet

Is she better than my best

I can't fight the shadow

Of some girl I never see

But her love is no greater

Than the love for you and me

Oh no my love

Don't go my love

Why can't I make you understand

I've got all the love you need

Can't you see

It's me who loves you babe

Can't you see

It's me who needs you babe

I'm the one

You can always depend on

I'm the one

Who's always here

Can't you see it's me

Oh baby

Can't you see it's me

Open up your eyes

Can't you see it's me

Oh baby

Can't you see me

You must be blind if you can't see

How much I love you babe

You must be blind if you can't see

How much I need you babe

Open up your eyes

Can't you see me

Oh baby

Can't you see

Can't you see me

You Gave Me Love lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

When I was down

And life was filled with emptiness

You gave me love

A tender love to take the loneliness away

Oh, happy days

That lifted darkness from my eyes

And made me see

The dawn of happiness arrive and bring to me

A special love

Just your touch

I feel such joy and ecstasy

Life is gay

Instead of pity and sympathy

You gave me love

Wonderful love

Sweet, sweet love

Like a child

I was helpless and alone

And so I cried

But you came and held me close

And dried my eyes

I'm satisfied

I feel content to know the

Heavens made you mine

'Cause here on earth

I never thought that I could find

Such a tender love

Like a toy

I just sat there on the shelf

Till the day that you came

To take me for yourself

And gave me love

Wonderful love

Thank you darling

Thank you honey

You gave me love

Bless the name

That I took with no regrets

For the years have come and gone

It's just like when first we've met

You gave me love

Wonderful love

Sweet, sweet love

I bless the day you came my way

You gave me love

Thank you baby

Bless you honey

Sweet baby

Wonderful love

Tender love

I'm satisfied yeah

Hey Jude lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Hey Jude

Don't make it bad

Take a sad song and make it better

Remember to let him into your heart

And you can start to make it better

Hey Jude

Don't be afraid

You were made to go out and get him

The minute you let him under your skin

Then you begin to make it better

Anytime you feel the pain

Hey Jude, refrain

Don't carry the world on your shoulder

Well, you know that it's a fool

Who plays it cool

By making his world a little colder

Hey Jude

Don't let me down

You have found him

Now go out and get him

Remember to let him in to your heart

Then you can start to make it better

Let him out

Let him in

Hey Jude, begin

You're waiting for someone to perform

Don't you know it's just you

Hey Jude, you too

The movement you need is on your shoulder

Hey Jude

Don't let me down

Take a sad, sad song and make it better

Remember, let him under your skin

Then you begin to make it better

The Young Folks lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Here they come

Looking so alive

They're here for business

But it's all none of your jive

Brighter tomorrows are in their eyes

You'd better make way for the young folks

Oh, yeah yeah yeah yeah

They say yes and you say no

They ask you why and you close the door

My old friend I thought you knew by now

You can't do that to the young folks

Oh, no no no no

You might not like it but I've got to tell you

Gotta tell you

You'd better make way for the young folks

Oh, yeah yeah yeah yeah

They're marching with signs

They're standing in lines (yeah)

Protesting your right to turn out the light

In their lives

Here's the deal

Accept it if you will

They're coming on strong

It's their time to live

My old friend I thought you knew by now

You gotta make way for the young folks

Oh, yeah yeah yeah yeah

You may not like it but I've got to tell you

Gotta tell you

Woh

You'd better make way

You gotta make way

You'd better make way

For the young folks

(oh yeah)

You may not like it but I've got to tell you

Gotta tell you

Woh

You'd better make way

You gotta make way

You'd better make way

For the young's folks

(oh, oh yeah)

Shadows Of Society lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Rich man and poor, beggar and thief

Searching in the darkness

For a light to show the way

Each seeking his identity

Protect me from my brother please

They pray

Afraid and so alone

Tell me where have all the loving people gone

They're lying here with you and me

Buried in the shadows of society

Young mothers' faces filled with shame

It's not enough to give her baby life, they say

Each child must have a proper name

Or they'll never be allowed to see the light of day

Wrong, right or wrong

Tell me where has understanding gone

Where have all the loving people gone

Where has understanding gone

Here they are with you and me

Buried in the shadows of society

Once someone said

'Let there be light'

What good is light

If we've forgotten how to see

It's gone

The light is gone

Where is the light of love

To lead us on

As I rush through the shadows

Seeking me

May the torch of love

Light my way

Where have all the loving people gone

Where has understanding gone

Once someone said

'Let there be light'

What good is light

If we've forgotten how to see

It's gone

The light is gone

Where is the light of love

To lead us on

As I rush through the shadows

Seeking me

May the torch of love

Light my way

Loving You Is Better Than Ever lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Lovin' you, baby

Is better than ever

The stronger the thought

Of you that never ceases

The longer our loving

The more it increases

But 'you' is where my everlasting peace is

Keep me here

Hold me close, hold me near

I said

I wanna see you

The sooner, the better

I want all your time I can beg steal or borrow

Today only makes me anticipate tomorrow

You are the ship of love

And I'm the cargo

Set your sail

And though it storms

We'll never fail

Lovin' you is better than ever

You and I have been blessed

With love that's better than best

Love that withstood the test of time

You know that I'm proud that I can say

Seems like day by day

Lovin' you baby

Is better than ever

Lovin' you baby

Is better than ever

When It's To The Top (Still I Won't Stop Giving You Love) lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

I'm gonna take your empty heart

And fill it with love until it's higher and higher

And when it's to the top still I won't stop, I won't stop

Giving you love (giving you love)

Oh, baby when it's to the top still I won't stop, I won't stop

Giving you love (giving you love, giving you love, giving you love).

Ooh, love brought you to me

You were in search of your destiny

A hurt deep in your empty heart

Walking along, your life torn apart

Reaching out, so full of doubt

Hoping someone would show the way.

So here's my hand

I'm searching too so I understand

You need someone to come and be the one

To take all your hurt away

So let me start to fill your heart

With all of the love you need

And when it's to the top still I won't stop, I won't stop

Giving you love (giving you love)

Hey baby, and when it's to the top still I won't stop, I won't stop

Giving you love (giving you love, giving you love, giving you love).

Oh can't you feel it growing

Knowing it's going right to the top.

Oh, strong and true

Will be the love that I'll share with you

Rising so high up to the sky

Standing so tall it'll never fall

Soon you'll feel a love so real

Rush into your empty heart.

So walk with me

To the land of love eternally

There love will grow and we will know

We'll be in love forever more

Soon I'll show how love will grow

Inside of your empty heart

And when it's to the top still I won't stop, I won't stop

Giving you love (giving you love)

Darling, darling when it's to the top

Still I won't stop, I won? stop giving you love

Giving you love (giving you love, giving you love).

Till Johnny Comes lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Stay with me, baby

Till Johnny comes

He'll come one day, I know it

But he's having fun

He's out painting the world scarlet red

And he's left me alone to be blue

One day he'll come to take me away

From this love I've been sharing with you

Stay with me, baby

Please, stay

Till Johnny comes

Stay with me, baby

And hold me near

Just the way Johnny used to hold me

When he was here

'Cause when last he was here, we were kissing

And I thrilled to the way he spoke my name

When he thinks of the true love he's been missing

He'll be coming back to stake his claim

Stay with me, baby

Please, stay

Till Johnny comes

Since Johnny's been gone

You have dried all of the tears I have cried

Won't you stay here by my side

Till Johnny shows

And I'll tell Johnny he's come too late

Just how long did he think I would wait

And then stay with me forever

Won't you stay with me forever

After Johnny goes

Stay with me, baby

Forever and ever and ever and ever

Stay with me, baby

Blowin' In The Wind lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

How many roads

Must a man walk down

Before they call him a man?

How many seas

Must a white dove sail

Before she can sleep in the sand?

And how many times

Must the cannonballs fly

Before they're ever banned?

The answer, my friend

Is blowin' in the wind

The answer is blowin' in the wind

How many years

Must a mountain exist

Before it is washed to the sea?

And how many years

Can some people exist

Before they're allowed to be free?

How many times

Can a man turn his head

And pretend that he just doesn't see?

The answer, my friend

Is blowin' in the wind

The answer is blowin' in the wind

How many times

Must a man look up

Before he can see the sky?

How many ears

Must one man have

Before he can hear people cry?

And how many deaths

Will it takes 'till he knows

That too many people have died?

The answer, my friend

Is blowin' in the wind

The answer is blowin' in the wind

The answer, my friend

Is blowin' in the wind

The answer is blowin' in the wind

The Beginning Of The End lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Tender words of love

That once came easy

Now seems strained and insincere

Could this be the beginning

The beginning of the end

You don't tell me that you love me

And your kisses seem untrue

Could this be the beginning

The beginning of the end

My heart oh, my love

My everything has always

Been just for you

Now I pray every day

Each and every day

This coldness I find is only in my mind

Now you swear

You still love me

I longer feel you need me near

Could this be the beginning

I believe it's the beginning of the end

The beginning

The beginning of the end

Let The Sunshine In (1969) - Diana Ross & The Supremes

The Composer lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

You may not how

To make words rhyme

Carry a tune or a clap on time now

You may have no knowledge of musical things

But deep down inside of me

You have created a melody

You're the composer of the song

That my heart sings

You may not what

Quarter notes are

Or what I mean by Four to the Bar now

Such musical terms may be Greek to your ears

But deep down inside of me

You have created a melody

You're the composer of the song

That my heart hears

Now it's a tender song

It's like a rhapsody, a symphony

This song I find in this heart of mine

And it's begging you

Let nothing keep us apart

Oh, my darling

'Cause you put a song in my heart

Now this song that I find in my heart for you

Every lyric and line

I swear it's true

The number one song on my personal chart

Deep down inside of me

You have created a melody

You're the composer of the song

That's in my heart

Deep down inside of me

You have created a symphony

You're the composer

You put a song in my heart

You're the composer

You put a song in my heart

You're the composer

You put a song in my heart

Everyday People lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supreme

Sometimes I'm right and I can be wrong

My own beliefs are in my song

The butcher, the thinker, the drummer and then

Makes no difference what group I'm in

I am everyday people, yeah

There is a blue one, who can't accept the green one

For living with a fat one, trying to be a skinny one

And different strokes for different folks

And so on and so on and scooby dooby doo

We got to live together

I am no better and neither are you

We are the same whatever we do

You love me, you hate me you load me and then

You can't figure out what bag I'm in

I am everyday people, yeah

There is a long hair, who doesn't like the short hair

For being such a rich one, that will not help the poor one

Different strokes for different folks

And so on and so on and scooby dooby doo

We got to live together

There is a yellow one, who doesn't like the black one

Who won't accept the red one, who won't accept the white one

Different strokes for different folks

And so on and so on and scooby dooby doo

I am everyday people

'Cause there is a blue one, who can't accept the green one

For living with the fat one, trying to be a skinny one

There is a long hair, who doesn't like the short hair

For being such a rich one, that doesn't help the poor one

I am everyday people

'Cause there is a yellow one, who don't accept the black one

Who won't accept the red one, who won't accept the white one

I am everyday people

No Matter What Sign You Are lyrics - Diana Ross

Capricorn, Scorpio, Taurus, Gemini, Virgo, Cancer,

Pisces, Leo, Libra, Aries, Aquarius, Sagittarius

The moon shines bright above

But the charts declare

It's not my night for love

Ah, deep in my heart

I feel a good vibrations saying

"You and me, babe, would make a good combination"

There's no need in looking to the skies

Can't you see the stars shine in my eyes

I love you, boy, I really love you, boy

No matter what sign you are

You're gonna be mine you are

Can't let astrology chart our destiny

No matter what sign you are

You're gonna be mine you are

The beat of the heart, my love

Is stronger than the charts, my love

Your water sign just lit my fire

You fill me with such desire

I love you, boy, I really love you, boy

No matter what sign you are

You're gonna be mine you are

Can't let astrology chart our destiny

No matter what sign you are

You're gonna be mine you are

I need you beside me, love

Only you can guide my love

Capricorn, Scorpio, Taurus, Gemini, Virgo,

Cancer, Pisces, Leo, Libra, Aries

I don't care about your rising sign

All I know is when your lips touch mine

You move me, boy, you really move me, boy

No matter what sign you are

You're gonna be mine you are

Yes, you are

Hold me, boy

No matter what sign you are

You're gonna be mine you are

Hey Western Union Man lyrics - Diana Ross

Oh, Western Union man

Send a telegram to my baby

Send a telegram, send a telegram, oh

Send a telegram to my baby

This is all I want you to say.

(I want you to)

Tell her that I'm all alone

I tried to call her on the phone

Tell her I'm in misery

Think she's avoiding me

If a telegram won't do

Send a box of candy too

Maybe some flowers

Tell her that I miss her for hours and hours

Send a telegram, send a telegram, oh

Send a telegram, oh, to my baby

Do you hear what I say?

Oh, Western Union man, send a telegram!

Oh, send a telegram to my baby

Western Union man, send a telegram!

Send a telegram, send a telegram, oh

Send a telegram, man, to my baby

This is what I want you to do:

Listen, tell'er

Have you got a boy you can send

This is what I want him to do

Put him on his bike right away

See if he can get a message through

Maybe tomorrow, mail it right away

Want the girl to know that I miss her

Something like yesterday

Send a telegram, send a telegram, oh

Send a telegram, man! To my baby.

Western Union man, send a telegram

Send a telegram to my baby

Western Union man, send a telegram, oh

Send a telegram, send a telegram, send it

Send a telegram, oh, to my baby

Do you hear what I say?

Hey Western Union man, send a telegram, oh

Send a telegram to my baby

Western Union man, send a telegram

Send it, man, send it to my baby (send it, send it)

To my baby, send it right away.

Western Union man, send a telegram

Oh, send a telegram to my baby

Western Union man, hey, send a telegram.

What Becomes Of The Broken Hearted lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

As I walk this land of broken dreams

I have visions of many things

But happiness is just an illusion

Filled with sadness and confusion

What becomes of the broken-hearted

Who had love that's now departed?

I know I've got to find

Some kind of peace of mind

Maybe,

The fruits of love grow all around

But for me they come a tumblin' down

Everyday heartaches grow a little stronger

I can't stand this pain much longer

I walk in shadows, searching for light

Cold and alone, no comfort in sight

Hoping and prayin' for someone to care

Always movin' and goin' nowhere

What becomes of the broken-hearted

Who had love that's now departed?

I know I've got to find

Some kind of peace of mind

Help me, please

I'm searching though I don't succeed

for someones love

There's a growing need

all is lost, there's no place for beginning

All that's left is an unhappy ending

Now what becomes of the broken-hearted

Who had love that's now departed?

I know I've got to find

Some kind of peace of mind

I'll be searching everywhere

Just to find someone to care

I'll be looking everyday

I know I've got to find a way

Nothing's gonna stop me now

I'll find a way somehow

I'll be searching everywhere

I'm Living In Shame lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Mama was cookin' bread

She wore a dirty raggedy scarf around her head

Always had her stockings low

Rolled to her feet just didn't know

She wore a sloppy dress

Oh no matter how she tried she always looked a mess

Out of the pot she ate

Never used a fork or a dinner plate

I was always so afraid that

The uptown friends would see her

Afraid one day when I was grown

That I would be her

In college town away from here

A new identity I found

That I was born elite

With maids and servants at my feet

I must have been insane

I lied and said mama died on a weekend trip to Spain

She never got out of the house

Never even boarded a train

Married a guy, was living high

I didn't want him to know her

she had a grandson two years old

That I never even showed her

I'm living in shame

Mama, I miss you

I know you're not to blame

Mama, I miss you

Got a telegram

Mama passed away while making home made jam

before she died she cried to see me by her side

She always did her best

Ah cooked and cleaned and always in the same old dress

Working hard, down on her knees

Always trying to please

Mama, mama, mama can you hear me

I'm living in shame

Mama, I miss you

I know you've done your best

Mama, I miss you

Won't you forgive me mama

For all the wrong I've done

I know you've done your best

Oh I know you've done the very best you could

Mama I thought you understood

Working hard, down on your knees

Aquarius / Let The Sunshine In lyrics - Diana Ross

Let The Music Play lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Let the music play

Just a little longer

Let me hold him in my arms

A little longer

Make the music play

Just a little slower

Let me hear his tender sighs

A little longer

Make the music play

Keep this magic going

Keep those trumpets blowing

All through the night

Don't ever skip a beat for

He may slip away

And if we were parted

I'd be broken hearted

Till he's in my arms to stay

Please let the music play

Make the music play

Just a little slower

Till he's in my arms to stay

Please let the music play

Let the music play

Keep this magic going

Keep those trumpets blowing

All through the night

Don't ever skip a beat for

He may slip away

And if we were parted

I'd be broken hearted

Till he's in my arms to stay

Please let the music play

Let the music play

Just a little longer

Let the music play

Just a little longer

Let the music play

Just a little longer

Let the music play

With A Child's Heart lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

With a child's heart

Go face the worries of the day

With a child's heart

Turn each problem into play

No need to worry

No need to fear

Just being alive

Makes it all so very clear

That's with a child's heart

Nothing can ever get you down

With a child's heart

You've got no reason to frown

Love, love is welcome

As a sunny, sunny day

No grownup thoughts

To lead our hearts astray

Take life easy

Easy like a child

So gay and care free

Yeah

Love, love is welcome

As a sunny, sunny day

The whole world smiles with you

As you go your own merry way

'Cause with a child's heart

Nothing can ever get you down

With a child's heart

We've got no reason to frown

Discover Me (And You'll Discover Love) lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Oh babe, ooo babe

Hidden here behind four walls, a new night passes by

I'm just a soul deprived of love, I've yet to reason why

I've got so much to give someone, so many dreams to share

And a promise of a faithful love if someone would only care.

Discover me and you'll discover happiness

Discover me and you'll discover love, sweet love.

The day begins and disappears, I go my lonely way

Oh, thinking that tomorrow's gonna be my lucky day

An unrequired love can be a hurting thing, it's true

But I can bear a hurting thing

Baby, until you discover me and you'll discover happiness

Discover me and you?l discover love, sweet love.

Could it be I'm placing all my values much too high

Saving all my loving for that very special guy

And I yell out for that someone who belongs to me alone

An unforeseen lover

Discover me and you'll discover happiness

Discover me if you need loving

Discover me, babe, oh baby, if you need loving

Discover me, discover me, discover me babe

Oh babe if you need loving discover me

Discover me oh babe.

Will This Be The Day lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Good morning world

How will today greet me

A single girl who needs a man

To love sweetly

A man to wrap his loving arms around me

Let me know that he's glad he's found me

I'll be his joy

Come on heart

Let's search for the boy

He's out there waiting somewhere

Tell me will this be the day

He'll come my way

You know, I comb my hair

While I run my bath

And I wonder where

Will he cross my path

Will I see him at the corner bus stop

The art museum or the market where I shop

He'll catch my eye

Come on heart

Let's go find the guy

He's out there waiting somewhere

Tell me will this be the day

Love will say

Now is the time

Here is the place

This is the hand

Here is the face

This is the man

Who set the pace

Your heart is beating

By and by and by

I know my day will dawn

That day when I will know before it's gone

Hey, what it means to have found that someone

Who can make up two hearts become one

Love can be found

Come on heart

Let's go look around

He's out there waiting somewhere

Tell me will this be the day

He'll come my way

Tell me that this is the day

I hope and pray

That this will be the day

He'll come my way

I'm So Glad I Got Somebody (Like You Around) lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

It's times like this, love

When my heart is filled with heavenly bliss

And you've given me a tender kiss

I begin to realize I'm so thankful that you're mine

'Cause I'm glad, so glad

Glad, glad I got somebody like you around

My heart grows fonder, baby, of you each and every day

Can't you hear it's singing praises, baby

To you in its own sweet way

Let you know sure I'm glad I got you

I don't think I could make it without you

'Cause I'm glad, so glad

Glad, glad I got somebody like you around

Glad, glad, glad, glad I got you

You better believe I'm having the time of my life

I'd be so proud if you'd ask me to be your wife

I hope and pray that it might be real soon

Like early in the morning or right this afternoon

'Cause I'm glad, so glad

I'm glad, glad I got somebody like you around

I remember all the tears, love

You washed away through childhood years

You were always very near, love

When I needed somebody, when I needed somebody

When I needed somebody like you around

When I needed somebody, when I needed somebody

When I needed somebody like you around

'Cause I'm glad, glad I got you

I'm glad, glad, glad, glad I got you.

Love Child (1968) - (as Diana Ross & The Supremes)

Love Child lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Tenement slum

You think that I don't feel love

But what I feel for you is real love

In other's eyes I see reflected

A hurt, scorned, rejected

Love child, never meant to be

Love child, born in poverty

Love child, never meant to be

Love child, take a look at me

I started my life in an old, cold run down tenement slum

My father left, he never even married mom

I shared the guilt my mama knew

So afraid that others knew I had no name

This love we're contemplating

Is worth the pain of waiting

We'll only end up hating

The child we maybe creating

Love child, never meant to be

Love child, (scorned by) society

Love child, always second best

Love child, different from the rest

Mm, baby (hold on, hold on, just a little bit)

I started school, in a worn, torn dress that somebody threw out

I knew the way it felt, to always live in doubt

To be without the simple things

So afraid my friends would see the guilt in me

Don't think that I don't need you

Don't think I don't wanna please you

No child of mine 'll be bearing

The name of shame I've been wearing

Love child, love child, never quite as good

Afraid, ashamed, misunderstood

But I'll always love you

I'll always love you

Keep An Eye lyrics - Diana Ross

Keep an eye

On your close friend

Keep an eye

On your close friend

'Cause what you got that'll make you lose

And then turn around and step in your shoes

I say they'll turn around

And step in your shoes

I stood there numb

Watchin' my friend walk away

With my love on her arm

Oh, what she said was

"Sorry for what I had to do

But you see I love him just as much as you"

Keep an eye

On your close friend

Keep an eye

You better watch out

For your close friend

The devil's workshop is a busy place

On top of evil there's an innocent face

Oh, on top of evil he puts an innocent face

She was just like a spider

Only twice as smart

Kindness was a thread

She used to weave my world apart

There were three of us seen all over town

Now there's only two

Someone's missing guess who

Now I see how she schemed and

Worked her way in between

Planted seeds of mistrust

To make us fight unaware

Her comforting ways when I would cry

Shadowed the look of triumph in her eye

Just like a snake on the limb tree

A friend is an enemy you can see

'Cause what you got that'll make you lose

And then turn around and step in your shoes

I said they'll turn around

And step in your shoes

So you better keep an eye on your close friend

You better watch out for your close friend

Don't trust nobody

Keep an eye on your close friend

Keep an eye

Don't trust nobody

Keep an eye on your close friend

You better watch out for your close friend

She was just like a spider

Only twice as smart

How Long Has That Evening Train Been Gone lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

How long has that evening train been gone

I wanna know

How long has that evening train been gone

I have a babe that was standing at the station

Waiting for a train

I ran to the door with my heart in my hand

(Heart in my hand)

And all my future plans

I've gotta catch him if I can

Is that express Mr. Station man

I woke up this mornin'

With a smile on my face

Feelin' that the world

The world was a beautiful place

How long has that evening train been gone

I want to know

How long has that evening train been gone

On a scrap of paper was the

Train arriving information

His room was empty and his closet's bare

And not a single shirt was hangin' there

How could the guy just up and leave me

What did I do that was so displeasing

Only yesterday he helped me type

He told me everything

Everything's gonna be alright

Oh, he said he loved me and he cried

Oh yeah, he said he loved me and he cried

Oh, yes he did now

There must be an explanation

Come on and move out the station

Can't you see that he's taking my world

And making me a sad sad girl

That's why I can't let go

That's why I gotta know

How long has that evening train been gone

I wanna know how long

Has the train been gone

Oh yeah, has that evening train been gone

Right now

Can't wait a minute longer

How long has that evening train been gone

Right now

Does Your Mama Know About Me lyrics - Diana Ross

(originally by Bobby Taylor & The Vancouvers)

Does your mama know about me

Does she know just what I am

Will she turn her back on me

Or accept me as I am

And what about your dad

Did you think of what he'll say

Will he be understanding

Or does he think the usual way

Maybe I shouldn't worry

But I've been through this before

And I'd like to get things straight

Before I'm knocking on your door

Does your mama know about me

Does she know just what I am

If she says forget about me

Do you think you'll understand

And what about your friends

Do you care what people say

Will you accept the burdens

I know will surely come your way

Maybe I shouldn't worry

But I've been through this before

And I'd like to get things straight

Before I'm knocking on your door

Does your mama know about me

Does she know just what I am

Will she turn her back on me

Or accept me as I am

Oh, we've got to stand tall

Tumble or crawl

We've got to be strong

For a love that's so right

Can't be wrong

And everyday I see it grow

I don't wanna let it go

That's why I gotta know

Does your mama know about me

Does she know just what I am

Does your mama know about me

Does she know just what I am

Does your mama know about me

Does she know just what I am

Honey Bee (Keep On Stinging Me) lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Honey bee keep on stingin' me

When I first saw you standin' there

Temptation filled your smile

I had to hold on to my heart

But you were so persistent

You wore down my resistance, now

Honey bee you're such a part of me

Honey bee you stung the heart of me

Honey bee keep on stingin' me

Mmm

You started a fever burnin' deep inside of me

Since you stung me with your sweet love

My whole life is rearranged

My heart looks like love has changed

Honey bee you're such a part of me

Honey bee you stung the heart of me

Honey bee keep on stingin' me

Into my life like a breath of spring

Came your love like the sunshine

To stop the rain

Dried all my tears

Darlin' I've been blessed

With your honey sweet love

And I must confess

Our love's dear

Ooh baby

Honey bee keep on stingin' me

This taste of honey you're givin' me

Has sweetened all my bitterness

And finally pushed my fears aside

In return I'll send in your direction

All my sweet lovin' affection

Honey bee you're such a part of me

Honey bee you stung the heart of me

Honey bee keep on stingin' me

Honey bee you're such a part of me

Honey bee keep on stingin' me

Honey bee you stung the heart of me

Some Things You Never Get Used To lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Some things you never get used to

It's the same routine of getting up every morning

And putting on a smile

But underneath there's another person

Who can't find a reason to make living worthwhile

Ah, another day to get through

Without the love that once was mine

Sometimes I think my heartaches come to an end

And then something brings them all back again

Like wanting you and like having you

I'll never get used to

I've gotten used to not listing

For familiar sounds you used to make

Now I'm trying to get out of the habit

Of calling your name first thing when I awake

Look here !

It's like a child's first step

I have to learn to walk all, all over again

'Cause you were always there if I should fall

And now there's nobody else that I can call

It's like wanting you and not having you

I'll never get used to

Lost in a cloud

I think I caught a glimpse of you

Blindly I rush to touch your hand, huh!

To discover it's my mind

Playing tricks on me again

Tricks on me again

Some things you never get used to

Sometimes I think my heartaches come to an end

And then something brings them all back again

Like wanting you and like having you

I'll never get used to

It's wanting you and like having you

I'll never get used to

Look here !

Like wanting you and like having you

I'll never get used to

He's My Sunny Boy lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Oooh...Sunny boy

Now let me tell you how much good

You've done me boy

'Cause when I'm feeling alone

You give me plenty joy

Into each lives some rain must fall

But with you here

There's no rain at all

Sunny boy

Looks good in everything

From silk to corduroy

To see him I'd walk from Idaho to Illinois

(Or anywhere)

Do anything to be with him

My sunshine when the world is dim

It's sunny boy, sunny boy

My pride and joy

Sunny boy

You made my life so sweet

It's just like honey, boy

And I love you so much till it ain't funny boy

My cloudy days have been declouded

Since you're here so keep on shining

Sunny boy, sunny boy

My pride and joy

Hey, sunny boy

My honey boy

Now only your sweet lovin' can give me joy

I'm trying to tell the world

That you're my sunny boy

You've Been So Wonderful To Me lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

I believe in everything you do

My heart and soul goes out to you

This world was made for boys like you

You never made me cry

You never told me a lie

You've been wonderful to me

Ooh, so wonderful to me

Oh, yes you have

Wonderful, wonderful

You're wonderful and kind

You're forever gently on my mind

Even in my sleep I have wonderful dreams

You're always there speaking softly it seems

Telling me how much I mean to you

Oh, darling you're my dream come true

You're wonderful to me

So wonderful to me

Oh, yes you are

Some day I'll find the words to say

To let you know how much I appreciate

Your being true and loving me the way you do

There's a smile upon my heart

Knowing you'll never say you'll part

You've been so wonderful to me

So wonderful to me

Oh, yes you have

Wonderful

Wonderful to me

Wonderful

Oh, yes you have

Wonderful

You've been so wonderful

Wonderful

Oh, yes you have

(Don't Break These) Chains Of Love lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Please don't ever break these chains of love

You've wrapped around me

'Cause I've been so happy darling

Ever since the day you've bound me

So tighter, pull 'em tighter

Till I feel love's sweet pain

'Cause these chains of love

Keep me from going insane

Love, oh love sweet love

Comes but once in a lifetime

The only love I need is yours

And oh, darling, I hope you need mine

So tighter, pull 'em tighter

Till I feel love's sweet pain

'Cause these chains of love

Keep me from going insane

I felt so sure I could resist you

My mistake was the first time I kissed you

Now I'm caught in a web of my own making

My heart's full of love and it's yours for the taking

Ooh, take it, baby don't break it

Just like a thief in the night

You stole my heart away

But now that you stolen it darling

I've only got one thing to say

Tighter, pull 'em tighter

Till I feel love's sweet pain

'Cause these chains of love

Keep me from going insane

These chains of love

Tighter, tighter, tighter these chains

Chains of love

Baby, baby, baby these chains

Chains of love

Lock 'em up, lock 'em up, lock 'em up

Chains

You Ain't Livin' Till You're Lovin' lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

You think you're so wayout

And you get all the action

But still you can't find no satisfaction

You specialize in playing the field

But now that the game

Has lost its appeal

Baby, try me

I'll make you see

You ain't livin' until you're lovin', babe

You ain't livin' until you're lovin', baby

Ooh, until you fall, you ain't livin' at all

At all

You like to kiss and run

And think that's where it is

'Cause somebody told you

Love was heartache and tears

You won't take a chance

On nobody else

You think you can make it

All by yourself

Baby, try me

And I'll make you see

You ain't livin' until you're lovin', babe

You ain't livin' until you're lovin', baby

Ooh, until you fall, you ain't livin' at all

At all

To be in love

I know it's not your ambition

So before you go

Think about my proposition

You may conquer the world

And be king of your throne

But you still ain't nobody, babe

When you're sittin' all alone

You ain't livin' until you're lovin', babe

You ain't livin' until you're lovin', baby

Ooh, until you fall, you ain't livin' at all

At all

You ain't livin' until you're lovin', babe

You ain't livin' until you're lovin', baby

You ain't livin'

Ooh, try me

You ain't livin'

Ooh, I'll make you see

You ain't livin'

Oh, yeah how sweet

You ain't livin'

I'll Set You Free lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Oh, baby life could be something wonderful

Wonderful

You keep me satisfied

I need you by my side

But you wanna leave today

Don't throw it all away

The tender love we knew

The tender love so true

The happiness we shared

Just knowin' someone cared

You're gonna need me

Like you needed me before

Need me, baby

Come back and close the door

Can't cool all my emotion

Can't cool all my devotion

Life could be something wonderful

I'll set you free

Something wonderful

I'll set you free

In your sweet caress

It's better than livin' a life of loneliness

Ooh I'm givin' you all I had to give

Each day made me proud to live

You took the best of me

If you don't want the rest of me

I'll set you free

Fine fine

I'll set you free

Fine fine

I don't want nobody who don't want me, ooh

You're gonna miss the love I've been givin'

You're gonna miss the life you've been livin'

You're gonna need me I know it

You're gonna want me

But I'll set you free, I'll set you free

Ooh, I'll set you free, I'll set you free

You don't care about me

Ooh, life could be something wonderful

Something wonderful

Here's a sweet caress

It's better than livin' a life of loneliness

You're gonna be lonely boy

Ooh I'm givin' you all I had to give

Each day made me proud to live

You took the best of me

If you don't want the rest of me

I'll set you free

Don't want nobody who don't want me

Yeah, you're gonna be lonely

You're gonna miss the love I've been givin'

You're gonna miss the life you've been livin'

You're gonna want me, baby I know it

You're gonna want me, but I'll set you free

I could be, oh baby, I could be

Oh baby, I could be

Anything I wanna be

As long as I know you're here with me

Can't Shake It Loose lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

I'm into something

I can't shake it loose

I'm into something

I can't shake it loose

Stay away from him

Are the words I did not heed

Oh no, no, no

He's not just the one

He's an absolute need

Oh yeah yeah

I ignored the warnin'

That his kisses is a habit formin'

And ooh, I have no excuse

I'm into something

I can't shake it loose

I'm into something

I can't shake it loose

So good is his love

I can't do without, oh no

His sweet tender kiss has got me strung out

Oh yeah yeah, yeah yeah

But I love him in such a way

I'll never gonna try to get away

And oh, it just ain't no use

I'm into something

I can't shake it loose

I'm into something

I can't shake it loose

Yeah

But I love him in such a way

I'll never try to get away

And ooh, it just ain't no use

I'm into something

I can't shake it loose

I'm into something

I can't shake it loose

So good is his love

So sweet is his kiss

I just can't shake loose

Diana Ross & The Supremes Sing And Perform "Funny Girl" (1968)

Funny Girl lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Funny, did you hear that? Funny!

Yeah, the guy said

"Honey, you're a funny girl"

That's me

I just keep them in stitches

Doubled in half

Though I may be all wrong for the guy

I'm good for a laugh

I guess it's not funny

'Cause life is far from sunny

When the laugh is over

And the joke's on you

A girl ought to have a sense of humor

That's one thing she really needs for sure

When you're a funny girl

The fellow said "A funny girl"

Funny, how it ain't so funny

Funny girl

Funny

Did you hear that?

The guy said I was funny

We'll wait 'till the laugh's over

And the joke's on you

That's me

I just keep them in stitches

Doubled in half

And though I may be all wrong for the guy

I'm good for a laugh

I may be all wrong for the guy

I'm good for a laugh

I guess it's not funny

'Cause life is far from sunny

When the laugh is over

And the joke's on you

A girl ought to have a sense of humor

That's one thing she really need for sure

When you're a funny girl

The fellow said "A funny girl"

Funny, how it ain't so funny

Funny girl

If A Girl Isn't Pretty lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

If a girl isn't pretty, really pretty

Like a Miss Atlantic City.

If a girl isn't pretty like a Miss Atlantic City

All she gets in life is pity and a pat

Any nose with deviation

Is a crime against the nation

Throw her into jail or maybe drown the cat.

She must shine in every detail

Like a ring you buy in retail

With a mounting that can knock the public flat

If a girl isn't pretty like a Miss Atlantic City

There's just nothing more to say: that's that

(That's that).

If a girl isn't pretty like a Miss Atlantic City

She should dump the stage and try another route

Any guy that spends a quarter

For a seat just feels he ought-a

See a figure that his wife can't substitute.

Men with faces that can cause ya

To have a temporary nausea

Will demand a raving beauty and nothing less

When a girl's incidentals

Are no bigger than two lentils

Well, to me that doesn't spell success.

(No, no, no, no, no, no

If a girl isn't pretty, if a girl isn't pretty).

If a girl ain't perfection

She can take a pop election

Every girl must be a dazzler and a beaut'

Never mind the girl's equipment

If it ain't the right assortment

Even though she loves her mother

And she's nice to her brother

If her hair ain't too bright curly

Better go to China, girlie

Or to hell on a fast express.

If a girl isn't pretty like a Miss Atlantic City

That oblivion is hard, a drag.

I Am Woman lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

I am woman, you are man

I am smaller so you can be taller than

I am softer to the touch

It's a feeling I like feeling very much

You are someone whom I admire

Still our friendship leaves something to be desired

Does it take more explanation than this?

I am woman you are man

Let's kiss

I am woman, you are man

I am gentle so you can be barbarian

I'm all pleats and pins and rouge

Mostly sham but ma'am

I love the subterfuge

I'm am fiction I hope you are fact

Contradiction's what makes it a perfect act

Does it take more explanation than this?

I am woman you are man

Let's kiss

The Music That Makes Me Dance lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

To me, to me love is no go

Till fiddle and oboe start weeping, and wailing

That's my failing

He may be all wrong for me

But his is the only song for me

I know he's around when the sky and the ground start in ringing

I know he is near

By the thunder I hear in advance

His words, his words alone

Are the words that can start my heart singing

'Cause his is the only music that makes me dance

He'll sleep and he'll rise

In the light of two eyes that adore him

And bore him it might

But he won't leave my sight for a glance

In every way, every day

I need less of myself and more him, more him

'Cause his is the only music that makes me dance

In every way, every day

I need less of myself and more him, more him

'Cause his is the only music that makes me dance

His is the only music that makes me dance

Don't Rain On My Parade lyrics - Diana Ross

Don't tell me not to fly

I've simply got to

If someone takes a spill

It's me and not you

Don't bring around the cloud to rain on my parade

Don't tell me not to leave

Just sit and putter

Life's candy and the sun's a ball of butter

Who told you you're allowed to rain on my parade

I'll march my band out

I'll beat my drum

And if I'm fanned out

Your turn at bat, sir

At least I didn't fake it, hat, sir

I guess I didn't make it

But whether I'm the rose of sheer perfection

A freckle on the nose of life's complexion

A Cinderella or a shine apple of an eye

I gotta fly once

I gotta try once

Only can die once, right, sir?

Ooh, life is juicy

Juicy and you see

I gotta have my bite, sir

Get ready for me love

'Cause I'm a "comer"

I simply gotta march

My heart's a drummer

Don't bring around the cloud to rain on my parade

Yes, sir

No, sir

I'm gonna live and live now

Get what I want, I know how

All that the law will allow

One roll for the whole shebang

One throw that bell will go clang

Though I'm alone I'm a gang

Eye on the target and wham

One shot, one gun shot and bam

Hey, world, here I am...

Get ready for me life, 'cause I'm a "comer"

I simply gotta march, my heart's a drummer

Nobody, no, nobody, is gonna rain on my parade!

People lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

People

People who need people

Are the luckiest people in the world

We're children needing other children

And yet, letting our grown up pride

Hide all the need inside

Acting more like children than children

People

God's children

Were born to be free

To love

All people have a dream

For peace, for security

Let the world fall in love again

Please, please, let our lies not be in vain

Lovers are very special people

They're the luckiest people in the world

With one person

One very special person

A feeling deep in your soul says

You were half, now you're whole

No more hunger and thirst

But first be a person who needs people

People who need people

Are the luckiest people in the world

Cornet Man lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Wah-wah-wah?

Is that all you can say?

The lady ain't been born

Can take the place of a horn

With the cornet man

A goin' where there's blowin'

Trav'lin' cornet man.

Just anytime they call him

He leaves his wife and kiddies

Sittin' with their tongues out

To play for peanuts in some dive

And blow his lungs out.

He'll hop a choo-choo

On a moment's notice

To play some dates

With Billy Bates or Ragtime Otis.

The lady ain't see the light

Can give a home a fair fight

With a cornet man

A rootin', shootin'

Ever-tootin' Dapper Dan

Who carries in his satchel

A powder-blue Norfolk suit

A silver plated wah-wah mute.

There is drinkin' and gamblin', each one a curse

But I'm up against a devil that's worse

Yeah, a horn's my thorn

He's a trav'lin' cornet man.

(He's gotta go out on the road

He's got some dates with Billy Bates

He gave his notice to Ragtime Otis

He's gotta go, back on the road.)

The lady ain't see the light

Can give a horn a fair fight

With that cornet man

A rootin', shootin'

Ever-tootin' Dapper Dan

Who carries in his satchel

A powder-blue Norfolk suit

Silver plated wah-wah mute.

There is drinkin', gamblin', each one a curse

But I'm up against a devil that's worse

Yeah, a horn's my thorn

He's a trav'lin' cornet man.

Say it again!

A powder-blue Norfolk suit

Silver plated wah-wah mute

Shy on height, he's short on weight

But he's the only guy

Can make my coffee percolate

Dapper Dan, my cornet player man.

His Love Makes Me Beautiful lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

I am the beautiful reflection of my love's affection

A walking illustration of his adoration

His love makes you beautiful,

So beautiful, so beautiful

I ask my looking glass

What is it makes me so exquisite?

The answer to my query comes back:

"Dearie, his love makes you beautiful,

So beautiful, so beautiful

And woman loved is woman glorified!"

I'll make a beautiful, beautiful,

Beautiful, beautiful bride!

Oh, his love makes me beautiful,

So beautiful, so beautiful

I ask my looking glass

What is it makes me so exquisite?

The answer to my query comes back:

"Dearie, his love makes you beautiful

So beautiful (beautiful)

And woman loved is woman glorified!"

I'll make a beautiful, beautiful,

Beautiful, beautiful bride!

Oh, woman loved is glorified

I'm gonna make a beautiful bride.

[Spoken]

-Gee, ain't she got some beautiful, beautiful skinny legs? Got a beautiful face

And hair-Hair?

-I mean my wig, it? pretty.

-Oh, oh-And know why? Cause it makes me feel beautiful. "Mirror, mirror on the

Wall, who? the fairest of them all?" Me.

-What?

-I know it. Cause I'm beautiful.

-Well, maybe she is beautiful, cause she thinks she is.

-Really, beautiful.

I'll make a beautiful, beautiful

Beautiful, beautiful bride.
