I love you so much, can't count all the ways
I'd die for you girl, and all they can say is
"He's not your kind"
They never get tired of puttin' me down
And I never know when I come around
What I'm gonna find
Don't let them make up your mind
Don't you know
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Please come take my hand
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Soon you'll need a man
I've been misunderstood for all of my life
But what they're sayin', girl, just cuts like a knife
"The boy's no good"
Well, I finally found what I've been looking for
But if they get the chance, they'll end it for sure
Sure they would
Baby, I've done all I could
Now it's up to you
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Please come take my hand
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Soon you'll need a man
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Please come take my hand
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Soon, but soon you'll need a man

Had to go, had to know all
There was out there.
Now I'm back, I know that, girl
It's all right here.
Girl I took
The long way home, it's true,
The long way home to you, yeah
And I just want to say,
I'm home to stay.
Ran a lot
Don't know what I
Thought I would find.
Town to town, all I found
Was you on my mind
Girl I took
The long way home, it's true,
The long way home to you, yeah
And I just want to say,
LyricsI'm home to stay.
(instrumental-piano)
Girl I took
The long way home, it's true,
The long way home to you, yeah
And I just want to say,
I'm home to stay.
Stay,
I'm home to stay
Been a long way, long way home
Long way home, long way home

Red, red wine
Go to my head
Make me forget that I
Still need her so
Red, red wine
It's up to you
All I can do, I've done
But memories won't go
No, memories won't go
I'd have sworn that with time
Thoughts of you would leave my head
I was wrong, and I find
Just one thing makes me forget
Red, red wine
Stay close to me
Don't let me be alone
It's tearing apart
My blue, blue heart
Lyrics
I'd have sworn that with time
Thoughts of you would leave my head
I was wrong, and I find
Just one thing makes me forget
Red, red wine
Stay close to me
Don't let me be alone
It's tearing apart
My blue, blue heart

Loved her so
Then one day
She said she loved someone else instead
I'm goin' out of my head
'Cause over and over
I just hear the last words she said:
You'll forget
You'll forget that you loved me
And you'll stop thinkin' of me
You'll forget what you feel right now
But how?
There she stood,
The hands that once set me burning,
They were as cold as clay
And as she looked away
She said in the strangest voice the words
I never thought she'd say:
You'll forget,
LyricsYou'll forget that you loved me
And you'll stop thinkin' of me
You'll forget what you feel right now
But how?
You know when you needed me
I was right there by your side.
But now you don't need me no more,
it's a fast goodbye, don't you cry
You'll forget,
You'll forget that you loved me
And you'll stop thinkin' of me
You'll forget
What you feel right now, but how?
You'll forget
You'll forget that you loved me
And you'll stop thinkin' of me
You'll forget what you feel right now
But how?

I don't have a lot, but with me that's fine
Whatever I got, well, I know it's mine
I don't go around with the local crowd
I don't dig what's in so I guess I'm out
I'm saying these things
So you know me, baby
So, you understand what I'm all about
The boat that I row won't cross no ocean
The boat that I row won't get me there soon
But I got the love and if you got the notion
The boat that I row's big enough for two
Just me and you
There ain't a man alive
Can tell me what to say
I choose my own side and I like it that way
I don't worry about all the things that I'm not
There's only one thing that I want I ain't got
You know that I'm talkin' about you, baby
But you better know before you come along
The boat that I row won't cross no ocean
The boat that I row won't get me there soon
But I got the love and if you got the notion
The boat that I row's big enough for two
Just me and you
(instrumental)
I'm saying these things
So you know me, baby
Do you understand what I'm all about
The boat that I row won't cross no ocean
The boat that I row won't get me there soon
But I got the love and if you got the notion
The boat that I row's big enough for two
Just me and you
The boat that I row won't cross no ocean
The boat that I row won't get me there soon
But I got the love and if you got the notion
The boat that I row's big enough for two

Oh, the girls out of sight, yeah
Says she loves me yes, yes she does
Oh, gonna show me tonight, yeah

I thought love was only true in fairy tales
Meant for someone else but not for me
Paper houses made to stand with paper nails
That's all I thought that love could ever be
What's the use in trying
All you get is pain
When I needed sunshine
I got rain
Then I saw her face
Now I'm a believer
Not a trace
Of doubt in your mind
I'm in love
And I'm a believer
I couldn't leave her if I tried
Not if I tried
Thought that love
Was more or less a givin' thing
Seems the more I gave the less I got
Like a flower that grows,
Love's like a living thing
Living things don't like to be forgot
Love was out to get me
That's the way it seemed
Disappointment haunted all my dreams
Then I saw her face
I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
I'm in love
I'm a believer
I'm a believer
I'm in love
I'm a believer
I'm in love
Yeah I'm a believer

Young child with dreams
Dream every dream on your own
When children play
Seems like you end up alone
Papa says he'd love to be with you
If he had the time
So you turn to the only friend you can find
There in your mind
Shilo when I was young
I used to call your name
When no one else would come
Shilo you always came
And we'd play
Young girl with fire
Something said she understood
I wanted to fly
She made me feel like I could
Held my hand and I let her take me
Blind as a child
All I saw was the way that she made me smile
She made me smile
Shilo when I was young
I used to call your name
When no one else would come
Shilo you always came
And you'd stay
Had a dream and it filled me with wonder
She had other plans
Got to go and I know that you'll understand
I understand
Shilo when I was young
I used to call your name
When no one else would come
Shilo you always came
Come today
Shilo....Shilo....

Mama she always told me it would happen
But she never said
That it would happen like this
Papa said,
"Some little girl'll catch you nappin'
Some little girl will get to you with her kiss"
You got to me
You brought me to may knees
Never thought I'd say please, girl
You got to my soul
You got control you got to me,
You got to be mine
Used to slip
Though every girl's hand like water
There never was one
Who could ever tie me down
Straight ahead and steady as Gibraltar
'Til you brought me tumblin' to the ground
LyricsYou got to me
You brought me to may knees
Never thought I'd say please, girl
You got to my soul
You got control, you got to me,
You got to be mine
You got to me
You brought me to may knees
Never thought I'd say please, girl
You got to my soul
You got control, you got to me,
You got to be mine
You got to me girl
All right come on now
Say you got to me
. . .

Melinda was mine
'Til the time
That I found her
Holding Jim
And lovin' Him
Then Sue came along
Loved me strong
That's what I thought
Well me and Sue
That died, too
Don't know that I will
But until I can find me
A girl who'll stay
And won't play games behind me
I'll be what I am
A solitary man
Solitary man
I've had it to here
Bein' where
Love's a small word
Part-time thing
Paper ring
I know it's been done
Havin' one
Girl who loves you
Right or wrong
Weak or strong
Don't know that I will
But until I can find me
A girl who'll stay
And won't play games behind me
I'll be what I am
A solitary man
Solitary man
Don't know that I will
But until I can find me
A girl who'll stay
And won't play games behind me
I'll be what I am
A solitary man
Solitary man
Solitary man

Daytime turns me off,
And I don't mean maybe
Nine to five
Ain't takin' me where I'm bound
When it's done,
I run out to see my baby
We got groovin'
When the sun goes down
I thank the Lord for the night time
To forget the day
A day of up, uptight time
Baby, chase it away
I get relaxation, it's a time to groove
I thank the Lord for the night time
I thank the Lord for you
I'll talk about plans now
Baby, I got plenty
Nothing ever seems to turn out
The way it should
LyricsTalk about money, girl,
I ain't got any
Seems like just one time
I'm feeling good
I thank the Lord for the night time
To forget the day
A day of up, uptight time
Baby, chase it away
I get relaxation, it's a time to groove
I thank the Lord for the night time
I thank the Lord for you
Seems like just one time
I'm feeling good
I thank the Lord for the night time
To forget the day
A day of up, uptight time
Baby, chase it away
I get relaxation, it's a time to groove
I thank the Lord for the night time
I thank the Lord for you
Thank the Lord for the night time
Thank the Lord for you
