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
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
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
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

When the moon is in the seventh house And Jupiter aligns with Mars Then peace will guide the planets And love will steer the stars This is the dawning of the age of Aquarius Age of Aquarius Aquarius Aquarius Harmony and understanding Sympathy and trust abounding No more lies and no derisions Golden living dreams of visions Mystic crystal revelation And the mind's true liberation Aquarius Aquarius Let the sunshine Let the sunshine in The sunshine in Let the sunshine Let the sunshine in The sunshine in Let the sunshine Let the sunshine in The sunshine in

Let The Music Play lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Let the music play
Just a little longer
Just a little longer
Let me hold him in my arms
A little longer

Make the music play
Just a little slower
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
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
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)
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
I'll always love you
I'll always love you
I'll always love you
I'll always love you

Keep An Eye lyrics - Diana Ross

Keep an eye
Keep an eye
Keep an eye
On your close friend

Keep an eye
Keep an eye
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
Keep an eye
On your close friend

Keep an eye
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
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
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
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

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
I'll set you free
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
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
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)
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.

Sadie, Sadie lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Sadie, Sadie married lady
See what's on my hand
There's nothing quite as touching
As a simple wedding band

Oh how that marriage license works
On chamber maids and hotel clerks
The honeymoon was such delight
That we got married that same night

I'm Sadie, Sadie married lady
Still in bed at noon
Cracking my brain deciding
Between orange juice and prune

He says nothing is too good for me
And who am I not to agree
I'm Sadie, Sadie married lady
That's me

Sadie, Sadie married lady
Meet a mortgagee,
The owner of a ice-box
With a ten year guarantee
Oh, sit me in the softest seat

Quick a cushion for my feet
Do for me buy for me
Lift me carry me
Finally got a guy to marry me

Do my nails, read up on the sales
All day the records play
Then he comes home I tell him
Oh, what a day I had today

I swear I'll do my wifely job
Just sit at home become a slob
I'm Sadie, Sadie married lady
I'm Sadie, Sadie married lady
I'm Sadie, Sadie married lady that's me

That's who?
That's you!
That's me
I'm Sadie, Sadie married lady that's me

I'm The Greatest Star lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Hey, can we have your autograph?
My autograph?
I'm nobody
But wait a minute

I've got 36 expressions
Sweet as pie to tough as leather
And that's six expressions more
Than all the Barrymores put together
Only six?

Instead of kicking me
I don't think they give me a lift
I think it's a plot
'Cause they're scared that I got
Such a gift, I'm miffed

'Cause I'm the greatest star
I am by far, but nobody knows it
Wait, they're gonna hear a voice
A silver flute
They'll cheer each toot
When I expose it

Can't you see the look at me
That I'm a natural Camille?
As Camille I just feel
I have so much to offer
I know I'll be divine because
I'm a natural cougher

Some ain't got it, not a lump
She a great big clump of talent
Laugh, they'll bend in half

Did I tell the story about the traveling salesman?
A thousand laughs
Stick around for 'em folks
A thousand faces, I reiterate
When you're gifted
Then you're gifted

These are facts, I have no axe to grind
Hey, what are they blind
In all of the world so far
I'm the greatest star

Who is the pip with pizazz?
Who is all ginger and jazz?
Who is as glamorous as?

Who's an American beauty rose
With that American beauty nose
And ten American beauty toes

Eyes on the target and wham
One shot, one gun shot and bam
Hey, world, here I am!

I'm the greatest star
I am by far
But nobody knows it
That's why I was born
I'll blow my horn
'Till somebody hears it

I'll light up like a light
Right up like a light
I'll flicker and flare up
All the world's gonna stare up
Looking down
You'll never see me
Try the sky
'Cause that'll be me

I can make 'em cry
I can make 'em sigh
Someday they'll clamor
For my dram-er

Have you guessed yet
Who's the best yet
If you ain't I'll tell you one more time
You bet yer last dime
In all the world so far
She's the greatest, greatest

Funny, life is far from sunny
When the laugh is over
And the jokes on you
Well, a girl's gotta have a sense of humor
That's one things you really needs for sure
When you're a funny girl
The fellow said "A funny girl"
Funny, how it ain't so funny girl

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

Reflections (1968) - (as Diana Ross & The Supremes)




















Reflections lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Through the mirror of my mind
Time after time
I see reflections of you and me

Reflections of
The way life used to be
Reflections of
The love you took from me

Oh, I'm all alone now
No love to shield me
Trapped in a world
That's a distorted reality

Hapiness you took from me
And left me alone
With only memories

Through the mirror of my mind
Through these tears that I'm crying
Reflects a hurt I can't control
'Cause although you're gone
I keep holding on
To the happy times
Oh, when you were mine

As I peer through the window
Of lost time
Looking over my yesterdays
And all the love I gave all in vain
(All the love) All the love
That I've waisted
(All the tears) All the tears
That I've taisted
All in vain

Through the hollow of my tears
I see a dream that's lost
From the hurt
That you have caused

Everywhere I turn
Seems like everything I see
Reflects the love that used to be

In you I put
All my faith and trust
Right before my eyes
My world has turned to dust

After all the nights
I sat alone and wept
Just a handful of promisses
Are all that's left of loving you

Reflections of
The way life used to be
Reflections of
The love you took from me

In you I put
All my faith and trust
Right before my eyes
My world has turned to dust...

I'm Gonna Make It (I Will Wait For You) lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

I'm gonna make it, I will wait for you
I'm gonna make it, I will wait for you.

When you went away
There's nothing I could say
But now I feel the hurt's coming over me
Wishing you were here, thinking ?out you, dear
Every night and day the way it used to be
Although it's been so long since you were by my side
I'll keep holding on and won? let this love die.

I'm gonna make it, I will wait for you
I'm gonna make it, I will wait for you.

Every girl has a dream of happiness
But all I dream of you's your sweet caress
I just can't tell you how I miss you so
But all my love I won't let go, oh.

I'm gonna make it, I will wait for you
I'm gonna make it, I will wait for you.

Everywhere I go the tears begin to flow
Cause I pass by every place we used to meet
And when I'm home alone
My friends call me on the phone
They all say that you will not return to me
I know you're gone without me
Although I don't know where
I know you're thinking bout me, I feel it in the air.

I'm trying not to let another take your place
Even though the loneliness is on my face
You can't let someone take what they don't own
Baby, I'm yours, so please come home.

I'm gonna make it, I will wait for you
I'm gonna make it, I will wait for you.

Forever Came Today lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Suddenly, my world stood still.
My life was then fulfilled
As you gently touched my hand
I knew that we had layed a plan
For everlasting love
That I've been forever dreaming of

Darling
Ooh, my darling
Make me yours
Let your kiss touch my face
And tell me love has led me
Into this place, to your warm embrace
And our happiness

Thanks to you, my search has ended
And I want the world to se
How gently love has shined on me
With everlasting love
That I've been forever dreaming of

I Can't Make It Alone lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

The best years of my life I placed into your hands
Now suddenly you've made, you've made a change of plans
That world we built for two does not include me now
That world of pleasant dream is but a nightmare now.

On life's bridge we ran so gaily hand in hand
But it's all over now, that bridge is all burned down
Your love was all I could depend upon
Who can I turn to now, now that you?e gone.

I can't make it alone
I need your love to call my own
I can't run, I can't hide from this love that's inside
All that I long to do is spend my life loving you
Every minute, every hour, always.

The joyful things that we used to do
That kept me right on, right on loving you
Oh, playing funny, childish games
Like running barefoot in the rain.

It was a special dream, a dream that I could feel
But now you?e gone, life's so unreal
Your love is truly the only love I've known
What am I to do now that you're gone.

I can't make it alone
I need your love to call my own
I can't run, I can't hide from this love that's inside
All that I long to do is spend my life loving you
Every minute, every hour, every day.

Days have come and gone but they never find you here
Nights are twice as long, oh, without you, dear
After many, many faithful years
How could you cause me so many tears?

I can't make it alone
I need your arms around me
I can't make it alone
I need your arms around me
I can't make it alone
Just can't make it alone.

In And Out Of Love lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Keep falling in and out of love
In search for what I'm dreaming of
I long to find a love I'm sure about
That certain kind of love that moves all doubts

Keep falling in and out of love
Still searchin' for that special one
To whom I can give my love completely
And feel a lasting love so sweetly

Just when I feel sure love's here to stay
It seems to suddenly just fade away
Can't seem to find that everlasting love
That this heart of mine needs so much of

Keep falling in and out of love
Can't seem to find the lasting kind
It seems I can't find the joy I need
Love always somehow all goes wrong for me

Keep falling in and out of love
Keep falling in and out of love
I keep reaching out for tenderness
Touching a hand that holds emptiness

I'm looking for a love that lingers on
Long after that first kiss is gone
That kind of love that keeps burning bright
Long after we've said goodnight

Keep falling in and out of love
In search for what I'm dreaming of
Keep falling in and out of love...

Bah-Bah-Bah lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Bah-bah-bah-bah-bah-bah
Bah-bah-bah-bah-bah, bah-bah-bah-bah-bah
Bah-bah-bah-bah-bah-bah
Bah-bah-bah-bah-bah, bah-bah-bah-bah-bah.

You don't hold me in your arms the way you did
When you were so much in love with me
I recall the time when you were all mine
And I didn't have to share your love with anyone.

And when I feel I wanna be with you
And I can't right then, it almost drives me insane
'cause you're the only one who can easy my mind
'cause you're the reason of all of my hurt and all of my pain.

When I guess my world was made believe
'cause I thought I can have your love all to myself
And there's nothing I can do 'cause you're gonna do
What you wanna do anyhow, anyway.

But loving you is blinding me so
I still hold on to every hope and every dream
While deep inside I feel the tide is about to turn
And you won't find me hanging around you anymore.

But keep this in mind for the end of time
You're gonna want me more than I want you now
Ooo, it's gonna be a shame, hate to see you that way
I know how it feels 'cause I'm on that cloud today.

Bah-bah-bah-bah-bah-bah
Bah-bah-bah-bah-bah, bah-bah-bah-bah-bah
Bah-bah-bah-bah-bah-bah
Bah-bah-bah-bah-bah, bah-bah-bah-bah-bah.

What The World Needs Now Is Love lyrics - Diana Ross

What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
No not just for some but for everyone

Lord we don't need another mountain
There are mountains and hillsides
Enough to climb
There are oceans and rivers
Enough to cross, enough to last
'Till the end of time

What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
No not just for some but for everyone

Lord we don't need another meadow
There are corn fields and wheat fields
Enough to grow
There are sun beams and moon beams
Enough to shine
Oh listen Lord if you want to know

What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
No not just for some but for everyone

What the world needs now is love, sweet love
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
What the world needs now...

Up, Up And Away lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Would you like to ride
In my beautiful balloon?
Would you like to glide
In my beautiful balloon?
We could flow among the stars
Together you and I
For we can fly
For we can fly

Up and away
In my beautiful
My beautiful balloon

The world's a nicer place
In my beautiful balloon
It wears a nicer face
In my beautiful balloon
We can sing a song
And sail along the silversky
For we can fly
For we can fly

Up and away
In my beautiful
My beautiful balloon

Suspended under a twilight canopy
We'll search the sky for a star to guide us
If by some chance you find yourself loving me
We'll find a cloud to hide us
Keep the moon beside us

Love is waiting there
In my beautiful balloon
Way up in the air
In ly beautiful balloon
If you'll hold my hand
We'll chase your dream across the sky
For we can fly
For we can fly

Up and away
In my beautiful
My beautiful balloon

Up, up and away
Up, up and away
Up, up and away
Up, up and away
Up, up and away

Love (Makes Me Do Foolish Things) lyrics - Diana Ross & The Supremes

Love, love, love makes me do foolish things
Sitting on by the phone, a phone that never rings
Hoping to hear you say you love me still
Knowing you never will.

Love, love, love has made a fool of me
Got me doing things, things that shouldn't be
Listening for the sound of your knock on my door
Knowing that sweet sound would be no more.

Funny how precious memories linger on
So long after you?e gone
Oooh, precious memories that all makes me cry
But I keep holding on, oh why should I?

All because love, love, love has made a fool of me
Speak your name softly each night
While holding your picture tight
When you took my heart, you took my soul
And it's far beyond control.

Funny how precious memories linger on
So long, long after you're gone
Oh, precious memories that all makes me cry
But I keep holding on, oh why should I?

All because love, love, love makes me do these things
Love, love, love, love has made a fool of me
Love, love, love makes me do foolish things.
