Maybe Tomorrow (1971)












Maybe Tomorrow lyrics - Jackson 5

I don't know how many stars there are
Up in the heavenly sky
I only know my Heaven is here on Earth
Each time you look into my eyes
The way you do, baby

Thank you, thank you, baby

My beautiful bird, you have flown away
I held you too tight, I can see
You're all I need to get by
No else can make me cry
The way you do, baby

You are the book that I read each day
You are the song that I sing (Gonna sing it to you)
You are the four seasons of my life
But maybe tomorrow, you'll change your mind, girl
Maybe tomorrow, you'll come back to my arms, girl
Maybe she'll come

Baby, you're all I need to get by
No one else can make me cry
The way you do, baby, 'cause

You are the book that I read each day
You are the song that I sing (Gonna sing it to you)
You are the four seasons of my life
But maybe tomorrow, you'll change your mind, girl
Maybe tomorrow, you'll come back to my arms, girl

Oh, you are the book that I read each day (Sing it, sing it, sing it, yeah)
You are the song that I sing (Sing it, sing it, sing it, yeah)
You are the four seasons of my life
But maybe tomorrow, you'll change your mind, girl
Maybe tomorrow, you'll come back to my arms, girl

You are the book that I read each day, yeah
You are the song that I sing (Gonna sing it to you)
You are the four seasons of my life
But maybe tomorrow, you'll change your mind, girl
Maybe tomorrow, you'll come back to my arms, girl
(Oh) Oh (Baby) Baby, I need you (Listen to me girl)
You are the song that I sing
You are the four seasons of my life
But maybe tomorrow, you'll change your mind, girl
Maybe tomorrow, you'll come back to my arms, girl

She's Good lyrics - Jackson 5

Man, oh, man, how glad I am
To have that pot of gold at the rainbow's end
Talking about that girl
She's good, she's good, she's good to me, yeah

Boy, oh boy, loads of joy
Every time she comes to mind, my friend
Talking about that girl
She's good, she's good, she's good to me, yeah

(She's good, she's good)
Don't you know I'm in heaven now?
And my little dream, is this really real?
I'm scared to pinch myself to find out

My, oh my, it's heard to realize
That something so groovy could be mine
Talking about that girl
She's good, she's good she's good to me, yeah

(She's good, she's good)
Don't you know that the world is mine?
And my little dream, is this really real?
I'm scared to pinch myself to find out

Man, oh man (she's good, she's good)
Boy, oh boy (she's good, she's good)
Don't you know that she's good to me
She's good, she's good, she's so good to me
(She's good, she's good)
And I love her, ooh
(She's good, she's good)
She's so good

Never Can Say Goodbye lyrics - Jackson 5

Never can say goodbye (Never can say goodbye, girl)
No, no, no, no, I
Never can say goodbye (Never can say goodbye, girl)

Even though the pain and heartache
Seems to follow me wherever I go
Though I try and try to hide my feelings
They always seem to show
Then you try to say you're leaving me
And I always have to say no
Tell me why (Tell me why)
Is it so (Is it so)

That I never can say goodbye (Never can say goodbye, girl)
No, no, no, no, I
Never can say goodbye (Never can say goodbye, girl)

Every time I think I've had enough
I start heading for the door
There's a very strange vibration
Piercing me right to the core
It says, "Turn around, you fool
You know you love her more and more."
Tell me why (Tell me why)
Is it so (Is it so)
Don't wanna let you go

I never can say goodbye, girl (Never can say goodbye, girl)
Ooh, ooh, baby (Don't wanna let you go, girl)
I never can say goodbye
No-no-no, no-no-no (No-no-no)
Ooh, oh
I never can say goodbye, girl (Never can say goodbye, girl)
Ooh-ooh (Don't wanna let you go, girl)
I never can say goodbye
No-no-no, no-no-no (No-no-no)
Ooh
Never can say goodbye (Never can say goodbye, girl)
No, no, no, no, I
Never can say goodbye (Never can say goodbye, girl)

I keep thinking that our problems
Soon are all gonna work out
But there's that same unhappy feeling
And there's that anguish, there's that doubt
It's the same old dizzy hang up
Can't do with you or without
Tell me why (Tell me why)
Is it so (Is it so)
Don't wanna let you go

I never can say goodbye, girl (Never can say goodbye, girl)
Ooh-ooh, baby (Baby)
I never can say goodbye
No-no-no, no-no-no (No-no-no)
Ooh, oh
I never can say goodbye, girl (Never can say goodbye, girl)
Ooh, oh (Hey, baby)
I never can say goodbye
No-no-no, no-no-no (No-no-no)
Ooh, ow, girl
I never can say goodbye, girl (Never can say goodbye, girl)
Ooh-ooh, baby (Hey, baby)
I never can say goodbye
No-no-no, no-no-no (No-no-no)
Ooh-ooh
I never can say goodbye, girl (Never can say goodbye, girl)
Ooh, now, ha (Hey, baby)

The Wall lyrics - Jackson 5

You hold me close to you, my baby
But somehow it doesn't feel the same
You built the wall so high between us
And you tell me that you haven't changed, oh

Tear down the wall that I can feel between us
The hidden wall that hides the real love
Tear it on down, tear the wall down
Tell me my love has got the strength to take it
Tell me what's wrong, we'll make it
Tear it on down, yeah, tear the wall down

I thought I really knew you, baby
Almost the way I know myself
But now you're acting like a stranger
And you've changed, girl, to somebody else, oh baby

Tear down the wall that I can feel between us
The hidden wall that hides the real love
Tear it on down, tear the wall down
Oh, tell me my love has got the strength to take it
Tell me what's wrong, we'll make it
Tear it on down, yeah, tear the wall down, ooh

Tear down the wall that I can feel between us
The hidden wall that hides the real love
Tear it on down, yeah, tear the wall down, oh...

Petals lyrics - Jackson 5

When my honey says she loves me so
Believe me, ya'll, it's far from status quo
A grain of salt I take with her heart
'Cause after her next breath, that girl may love me not
Oh
She tells my I'm so sweet
Sugar can't compete
Then puts me on the shelf
Crying by myself

Throwing petals, petals, tossing petals on the ground
Yesterday she picked me up just to throw me down
Those petals, petals, tell me what will it be today?
Will she walk into my arms or will she walk away?

She'll wake up some day and see
You're the only one she needs
Don't give up, just stick around
You'll be up instead of down

She keeps telling me she wants me near
(She keeps telling me she wants me near)
But half the time it's far from crystal clear
"Fickle-Heart" must be her middle name
("Fickle-Heart" must be her middle name)
'Cause loving her is just a guessing game
Oh
She calls up to say
Be there right away
Then leaves me sitting home
All alone and

Throwing all those petals, petals, tossing petals on the ground
Yesterday she picked me up just to throw me down
Those petals, petals, tell me what will it be today?
Will she walk into my arms or will she walk away?

She loves me (loves me, loves me)
And I feel like a king!
She loves me not (loves me not, she loves me not)
Huh! I've lost everything! Oh!

Petals, petals, tossing petals on the ground
Yesterday she picked me up just to throw me down
Yesterday I couldn't lose (yesterday I couldn't lose)
But today I sing the blues

Oh! Petals, petals, petals, petals
Ooh, ooh! Petals, petals, petals, petals
Petals, petals, petals, petals
Petals, petals, petals, petals

Petals, petals, tossing petals on the ground
Yesterday she picked me up just to throw me down
Tell me, tell me, tell me, what will it be today?

16 Candles lyrics - Jackson 5

Happy birthday
Happy birthday
I love you so

Sixteen candles
Make a lovely sight
But not as bright
As your hazel eyes

Blow out the candles baby
Make a wish come true
Blow out three wishes
That you love me too

You're only sixteen (oh girl)
But you're my teenage queen (sixteen)
But you're the prettiest and the loveliest girl
I've ever seen (I've ever seen)

Sixteen candles
In my heart will glow
Forever and ever
Oh, I love you so (I love you so)

You're only sixteen (oh girl)
But you're my teenage queen (sixteen)
But you're the prettiest and the loveliest girl
I've ever seen (I've ever seen)

Sixteen candles
In my heart will glow
Forever and ever
Oh, I love you so (I love you so)

Happy birthday
Happy birthday, baby
I love you so, oh, oh, oh, oh

Happy birthday
Happy birthday, baby
I love you so, baby, baby, baby, baby

Happy birthday
Happy birthday, baby
I love you so

(We've Got) Blue Skies lyrics - Jackson 5

We've got blue skies
We've got blue skies

It seems like only yesterday
You gave your love to me
And we made a vow that through the years
Our love would always be
Whenever doubts would fill my mind
You'd brush my fears away
Look into my eyes and hold me close
And this is what you'd say

We've got blue skies, now can't you see?
There'll never ever be another love for me

The pleasant dreams we shared
Made our love stronger with each day
And the fears that haunted me
Seemed like a million miles away
When friends we knew would come to me
With lies about your love
I'd tell them happiness and sunny skies
Are all we're thinking of (We're thinking of)
We're so in love (We're so in love)
We're thinking of (We're thinking of)

Blue skies
Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh
Blue skies
Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh

Yeah, I see you there, you're kissing him
How can this really be?
Well, I guess it's time to realize
My dreams are more to me
And as I walk off thinking
What a fool I must have been
Like an echo from my yesterday
I hear you telling him (Telling him)

We've got blue skies, now can't you see?
There'll never ever be another love for me
We've got blue skies, now can't you see?
There'll never ever be another love for me

Blue skies, we've got blue skies
(Blue skies, now can't you see?)
Blue skies, we've got those blue skies
(There'll never ever be another love for me)

Blue skies, we've got blue skies, oh baby
(Blue skies, now can't you see?)
Blue skies, we've got blue skies
(There'll never ever be another love for me)

Blue skies, we've got blue skies
(Blue skies, now can't you see?)
Blue, blue skies, blue, blue skies
(There'll never ever be another love for me)

My Little Baby lyrics - My Little Baby

All my friends keep asking what do I see in you
Through their eyes your beauty doesn't show
Ooh, all they ask is justified looking through the naked eye
But through the eyes of my love I see
The inner beauty of you

That's why you're my little baby (my little baby)
That's why you're my little baby (my little baby)
I don't want love on the skin
It's got to come from deep within
That's why you're my little baby (my little baby)
My little baby (my little baby)
My heart controls my eyes
And your love I visualize, oh yeah!

All your so-called girlfriends who compliment your clothes
Know that they're you mama's hand-me-downs
Ooh, the fashion world's turning so fast
You're still trying to catch the past
But in my world of love your style
I know will always last

That's why you're my little baby (my little baby)
That's why you're my little baby (my little baby)
I don't care what experts say
Our love is tailor-made
That's why you're my little baby (my little baby)
My my my my little baby (my little baby)
Like a brand-new ermine coat
You keep me warm as toast, little baby

You know it's true, little baby
You know it's true, babe
You know it's true, little baby
You know it's true, babe
I'm sticking with you, little baby
I'm sticking with you, girl
I'm sticking with you, little baby

Always thrill me when you touch me
Honey, you thrill me when you kiss me, little baby, yeah
Oh, sweet baby, baby
I've got to say I'm thankful that you're
My little baby (my little baby), my little baby (my little baby)
You fill me up with pride (oh yeah)
Every time you're by my side, now now now now

Oh yeah, you're my little baby (my little baby)
My little baby (my little baby), my little baby (my little baby)
I've got to say I'm thankful that you're my little baby (my little baby)
My little baby (my little baby)
Oh yeah (my little baby), baby, yeah yeah
My little baby (my little baby), my little baby (my little baby)
Ooh yeah, baby (my little baby)

It's Great To Be Here lyrics - Jackson 5

So glad, so glad, so glad, so glad
To be back in your arms
Thank you, baby; thank you, baby; thank you, baby
Back where I belong

Oh, I went out to do my thing
And I was totally rejected
I put you down for love unknown
But it wasn't what I expected
So frightened and confused
I came running back to you
I got right down on my knees
And said, "Darling, won't you please?"
I don't know why you did it
But I'm not too proud to admit it, baby

Thank you, baby; thank you, baby
Back where I belong
It's great to be here, great to be here, ooh
It's great to be here in your arms
Back where I belong, woo

Adventure grabbed my heart
And took me away from you, honey
I met all kinds of pretty girls
In every town that I passed through
But that fiery senorita
Burned me down in Mexico
And I got kisses cold as ice
From my Alaskan Eskimo
I feel guilty and ashamed
But I'm gonna say it just the same, baby

Thank you, baby; thank you, baby, yeah
Back where I belong
It's great to be here, great to be here , ooh
It's great to be here in your arms

Gotta get this señorita
She gave me I'll just si ya!
While kissing in the igloo
My Eskimo said no no!

Yeah, baby
So glad, so glad, so glad, so glad, so glad
To be back in your arms
It's great to be here, great to be here
It's great to be here in your arms
Back where I belong
Baby, baby, baby, baby, ow!
It's great to be here, great to be here, ooh
It's great to be here in your arms, yeah
Back where I belong
It's great to be here, great to be here
It's great to be here in your arms
Back where I belong
Baby, baby, baby, baby, yeah
It's great to be here, great to be here
It's great to be here in your arms
Back where I belong
I'm so glad
It's great to be here, great to be here, ooh ooh
It's great to be here in your arms
Back where I belong

Honey Chile lyrics - Jackson 5

(originally by Martha Reeves & the Vandellas)

It was there on my grandma's farm
Where the grapes grew high on the vine
Yeah, that's where we first met little girl

But you ain't gonna amount to nothing
'Cause you ain't gonna work for nothing
Without you I ain't good for nothing, honey chile
Oh honey chile, you're sure about to drive me wild

And I love you so, can't let go now honey chile
Oh, sugar chile, I'd walk me a country mile
Just to be with you if that were true but honey chile

You don't act like a lady
'Cause you've been courting Davie
Its reputation shady oh honey chile
Hey you even went out with Callie
That night across the alley
Oh, I've been keeping tally honey chile

You're like grapes upon the vine
That went in granny's wine
'Cause like that home-made wine so sweet
You're sure enough driving me out of my mind now

Your friends with every playboy
Using me for a play toy
You ruined my pride and joy now honey chile

Oh honey chile, sure about to drive me wild
And I love you so, can't let go now honey chile
Oh, sugar chile, I'd walk me a country mile
Just to be with you if that were true of honey chile

Why don't you put on your shoes little girl
Then I can kiss you
Oh listen here now

One day I'm gonna get stronger
And I won't need you no longer
This feeling will be gone oh honey chile

Hey, I can't take disgracing
That ain't the way grandma raised me
You're gonna hurt me crazy honey chile

Hey, sugar chile, I'd walk me a country mile
Just to be with you if that were true of honey chile
Hey honey chile, sure about to drive me wild
And I love you so, can't let go now honey chile

I Will Find A Way lyrics - Jackson 5

One little kiss
Led to another and another and another
Then, ooh, I wanted you
And now I feel those good vibrations
Deep inside my soul
Telling me that you're my goal

But if I'm stepping out of line
If my words don't seem to rhyme
It's because I'm falling head over heels in love with you
Darling, please don't turn away
Open your heart and let me stay
And I will find a way

Oh, trying to get to you
Is like trying to get a little cat down from the top of a tree
You're scared of me
But believe my ladder to love
Is strong and it will never break
Your little heart will be safe

But if I'm stepping out of line
If my words don't seem to rhyme
It's because I'm falling head over heels in love with you
Darling, please don't be afraid
Open your heart and let me stay
And I will find a way

But if I'm stepping out of line
If my words don't seem to rhyme
It's because I'm falling head over heels in love with you
Darling, please don't be afraid
Open your heart and let me stay
And I will find a way

But if I'm stepping out of line
If my words don't seem to rhyme
It's because I'm falling head over heels in love with you
Darling, please don't be afraid
Open your heart and let me stay
And I will find a way into your heart, girl

Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas lyrics - Jackson 5

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on
Our troubles will be out of sight

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the Yuletide gay
From now on
Our troubles will be miles away

Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more

Through the years we all will be together
If the fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now

A merry, a merry, a merry little Christmas

And from now on
Our troubles will be miles away

Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more

Through the years we all will be together
If the fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now

A merry little Christmas now
A merry little Christmas now
A merry little Christmas now
And have yourself a merry

A merry little Christmas now

Santa Claus Is Comin' To Town lyrics - Jackson 5

Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town

You'd better watch out
You'd better not cry
You'd better not pout
I'm telling you why

Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town

He's making a list
And checking it twice
Gonna find out who's naughty and nice

Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town

He sees you when you're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows if you've been bad or good
So, be good for goodness sake

Oh, you'd better watch out
You'd better not cry
Better not pout
I'm telling you why

Oh! Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town

Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town

Little tin horns
And little toy drums
Rooty-toot-toot
And rump-a-tum-tum
Curly-haired dolls
That tootle and coo
Elephants, boats and kiddie cars too

Oh! Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town

One more time now...

Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town

The Christmas Song lyrics - Jackson 5

Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to... you

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos (Everybody knows)

Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight

They know that Santa's on his way
He's bringing lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is on the spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly

And so, I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Though it has been said many times, many ways
(Merry Christmas) Merry Christmas
(Merry Christmas) Merry Christmas
(Merry Christmas to... to you)

Merry Christmas (Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas to you)
To you (Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas to you)
And you too
(Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way, oh)
Oh, Merry Christmas...to you
(Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas to you)
(Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas to you)
Merry Christmas (Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way...)

Up On The Housetop lyrics - Jackson 5

Here comes Santa Claus
Here comes Santa Claus
Here he comes, here he comes

Here comes Santa Claus
Here comes Santa Claus
Here he comes, here he comes

Up on the housetop, reindeer pause
Out jumps good old Santa Claus
Down through the chimney with lots of toys
All for everyone's Christmas joys

Tito had just one desire
That he gets a new guitar
But he wants a guarantee
That it won't play out of key

Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with old St. Nick

(I said) Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with old St. Nick

Here comes Santa Claus
Here comes Santa Claus
Here he comes, here he comes

Here comes Santa Claus
Here comes Santa Claus
Here he comes, here he comes

Jackie's almost six-feet tall
But no hot shot at basketball
Bring him a basket three-feet tall
Maybe he'll play like a pro

Marlon wears his shoes so thin
He's gone through his socks again
He's always dancing as you know
(So bring me some shoes with lots of sole)

Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with old St. Nick

(I said) Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with old St. Nick

Patter patter pitter patter
Pitter patter patter
Pitter patter pitter patter
Pitter patter patter

Oh, Dasher, Dancer, Prancer and Vixen
Come on, Comet, Cupid, Donner and Blixen
To the top of the porch, to the top of the wall
Now dash away, dash away, dash away all!

Did you read Santa Claus my list?
All the girls you're waiting to kiss?
Mike, that list was only a joke
Too late, Jermaine, he's bringing you mistletoe

But you just want toys and stuff
Yeah, but that's not even half enough
What I want means more than fun
What's that? Love and peace for everyone

Up on the house top reindeer stand
Waiting for that dear old man
Up to the chimney with gifts to spare
And lots of Christmas joy to share

Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Up out through the chimney with old St. Nick

Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Up through the chimney with old St. Nick

Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Up through the chimney with old St. Nick

Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Up through the chimney with old St. Nick

Frosty The Snowman lyrics - Jackson 5

Frosty the snowman was a jolly happy soul
With a corncob pipe and a button nose
And two eyes made out of coal

Frosty the snowman is a fairy tale they say
He was made of snow but the children
Know how he came to life one day

There must have been some magic in that
Old silk hat they found
For when they placed it on his head
He began to dance around

Frosty the snowman
Was alive as he could be
And the children say he could laugh
And play just the same as you and me

Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Look at Frosty go
Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Over the hills of snow

Frosty the snowman knew
The sun was hot that day
So he said
"Let's run and
We'll have some fun
Now before I melt away."
Down to the village
With a broomstick in his hand
Running here and there all
Around the square saying
"Catch me if you can."
He led them down the streets of town
Right to the traffic cop
And he only paused a moment when
He heard him holler "Stop!"
For Frosty the snow man
Had to hurry on his way
But he waved goodbye saying
"Don't you cry
I'll be back again some day."

Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Look at Frosty go
Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Over the hills of snow

The Little Drummer Boy lyrics - Jackson 5

"Come," they told me. Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum

I played my best for him, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
Rum-pum-pum-pum, rum-pum-pum-pum

Then he smiled at me, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
Me and my drum (Me and my drum)

Rum-pum-pum-pum, rum-pum-pum-pum
Rum-pum-pum-pum (Rum-pum-pum-pum)

Rum-pum-pum-pum, rum-pum-pum-pum
Rum-pum-pum-pum (Rum-pum-pum-pum)

Rum-pum-pum-pum, rum-pum-pum-pum
Rum-pum-pum-pum (Rum-pum-pum-pum)

Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer lyrics - Jackson 5

You know Dasher and Dancer, Prancer and Vixen
Comet and Cupid, Donner and Blitzen
But do you recall
The most famous reindeer of all?

Hey, Rudolph
Whoa, Rudolph

Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer
Had a very shiny nose
And if you ever saw it
You would even say it glowed

All of the other reindeer
Used to laugh and call him names
They never let poor Rudolph
Join in any reindeer games

Oh, then one foggy Christmas Eve
Santa came to say (hey, Rudolph)
Rudolph, with your nose so bright
Won't you guide my sleigh tonight?

Then how the reindeer loved him
As they shouted out with glee
Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer
You'll go down in history
You'll go down in history
Hey, Rudolph

Hey, Rudolph
Whoa, Rudolph

Red-Nosed Reindeer

Christmas Won't Be The Same This Year lyrics - Jackson 5

Merry Christmas, everybody
Yeah. Merry Christmas, everybody. Big deal
Hey, man. What's wrong with you Jermaine?
Yeah, that's no kind of attitude
This only happens once a year
Hey, fellas, don't bug him
He and his girl just broke up. So, get off his back
Can't you see there's tears in his eyes?
Yeah, he's crying. Look he's crying
Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry

Christmas won't be the same this year
Without her loving arms holding you so near
Christmas won't be the same this year
(No, it won't now, darling. No, no)
Without her loving arms holding you so near

I see the lights
But they don't shine for me
I see the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
Our house decorated
My friends are celebrating

Christmas won't be the same this year
(No, no, no)
Without her loving arms holding you so near
(It won't be the same this year)
Christmas won't be the same this year
(The things we used to do, my darling)
Without her loving arms holding you so near
(It's all over)

The neighborhood kids
Are having so much fun
Counting off the days
'Til Santa Claus comes
And I see the mistletoe
Hanging from my door
I wish I could kiss you again
Like I did before

Christmas won't be the same this year
(No, no, oh, oh)
Without her loving arms holding you so near
(Yeah, yeah)

So go on, girl
And have your fun
Don't spoil your time
Thinking about me
This time next year
My darling dear
Hopefully
You'll be having dinner with me

Christmas won't be the same this year
(No, no)
Without her loving arms holding you so near
(No, no, it won't. It won't be the same without you, darling)
Christmas won't be the same this year
Without her loving arms holding you so near
(No, no, no, no. It won't. It won't be the same)

Give Love On Christmas Day lyrics - Jackson 5

People making lists, buying special gifts
Taking time to be kind to one and all
It's that time of year when good friends are near
And you wish you could give more than just presents from a store

Why don't you give love on Christmas Day? (on Christmas Day)
Even the man who has everything
Would be so happy if you would bring
Him love on Christmas Day (on Christmas Day)
No greater gift is there than love

People you don't know smile and nod hello
Everywhere there's an air of Christmas joy
It's that once of year when the world's sincere
And you'd like to find a way to show the things that words can't say

Why don't you give love on Christmas Day? (on Christmas Day)
The man on the street and the couple upstairs
All need to know there's someone who cares
Give love on Christmas Day (on Christmas Day)
No greater gift is there than love

What the world needs is love
Yes, the world needs more love

Why don't you give love on Christmas Day? (on Christmas Day)
Every little child on Santa's knee
Has room for your love underneath his tree
Give love on Christmas Day (on Christmas Day)
No greater gift is there than love

What the world needs is love
Yes, the world needs more love
Give love on, give love on Christmas Day
(On Christmas Day)

Someday At Christmas lyrics - Jackson 5

Someday at Christmas, men won't be boys
Playing with bombs like kids play with toys
One warm December our hearts will see
A world where men are free, ooh

Someday at Christmas, there'll be no wars
When we have learned what Christmas is for
When we have found what life's really worth
There'll be peace on earth

Someday all our dreams will come to be
Someday in a world where men are free
Maybe not in time for you and me
But someday at Christmas time

Someday at Christmas, we'll see a land
With no hungry children, no empty hand
One happy morning people will share
A world where people care, whoa-oh

Someday at Christmas, there'll be no tears
When all men are equal and none have fears
One shining moment, one prayer away
From our world today, whoa-oh

Someday all our dreams will come to be
Someday in a world where people are free
Maybe not in time for you and me
But someday at Christmas time

Someday at Christmas, man will not fail
Hate will be gone and love will prevail
Someday a new world that we can start
With hope in every heart, whoa-oh

Someday at Christmas, hmm, hmm, hmm
Someday at Christmas, hmm, hmm
Hmm, hmm
But someday at Christmas time
Someday at Christmas time

I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus lyrics - Jackson 5

Merry Christmas and a happy new year
This is Michael Jackson and The Jackson 5 wishing a happy holiday to all mountain fans

Wow! Mommy's kissing Santa Claus!

I saw mommy kissing Santa Claus (kissing, kissing, Santa Claus)
Underneath the mistletoe last night
She didn't see me creep
Down the stairs to have a peep
She thought that I was tucked up
In my bedroom, fast asleep

Then I saw mommy tickle, tickle (tickle, tickle, Santa Claus)
Underneath his beard so snowy white
Oh, what a laugh it would have been
If daddy had only seen
Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night

He saw mommy kissing (kissing, kissing, Santa Claus)
I did! I really did see mommy kissing Santa Claus
And I'm gonna tell my dad

Then I saw mommy tickle (tickle, tickle, Santa Claus)
Underneath his beard so snowy white
Oh, what a laugh it would have been
If daddy had only seen
Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night

Oh, what a laugh it would have been
If daddy had only seen
Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night

I did! I did! I really did see mommy kissing Santa Claus
You gotta believe me! You just gotta believe me!
Come on, fellas, believe me!
You just gotta believe me! (I told you, I told you)

Little Christmas Tree lyrics - Jackson 5

I watch the snowflakes fall
Against my window pane
And wonder if you
Are watching snowflakes too
I take a walk downtown
To where you used to meet me
There's joy everywhere
But all that's waiting there is

Just a little Christmas tree
Looking sort of sad and lonely just like me
No one seems to care (no one seems to care)
They just went away and left it standing there
All alone on Christmas Eve

I hear the Christmas bells
(bum bum bum bum bum)
The happy people singing
The songs of good cheer that only bring me tears
I sadly close my eyes
And say a little prayer
You'll be waiting there for me
I look but all I see is

Just a little Christmas tree
Looking sort of sad and lonely just like me
No one seems to care (no one seems to care)
They just went away and left it standing there
All alone on Christmas Eve

This is the season of love
(This is the season of love)
But I'm as sad as I can be
(I'm as sad as can be)
Why did you have to leave me
(Why did you have to leave me)
(Why did you have to leave me)

Just a little Christmas tree
Looking sort of sad and lonely just like me
No one seems to care (no one seems to care)
They just went away and left it standing there
All alone on Christmas Eve

Third Album (1970)












I'll Be There lyrics - Jackson 5

You and I must make a pact
We must bring salvation back
Where there is love, I'll be there (I'll be there)
I'll reach out my hand to you
I'll have faith in all you do
Just call my name and I'll be there (I'll be there)

And oh, I'll be there to comfort you
Build my world of dreams around you, I'm so glad that I found you
I'll be there with a love that's strong
I'll be your strength, I'll keep holding on
(Holding on, holding on, holding on) Yes, I will. Yes, I will

Let me fill your heart with joy and laughter
Togetherness, girl, is all I'm after

With an unselfish love that respects you
Just call my name and I'll be there (I'll be there)

And oh, I'll be there to comfort you
Build my world of dreams around you, I'm so glad that I found you
I'll be there with a love that's strong

If you should ever find someone new
I know he better be good to you
'Cause if he doesn't, I'll be there (I'll be there)

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Oh How Happy lyrics - Jackson 5

(originally by The Shades of Blue)

Oh how happy you have made me
Oh how happy you have made me

I have kissed your lips a thousand times
And more times than I can count
I have called you mine
You have stood by me in my darkest hour, see

Oh how happy you have made me
Oh how happy you have made me
Oh how happy you have made me
Oh how happy you have made me

In our years together
We had stormy weather
But our love has been so strong
But somehow we carry on, seeing

Oh how happy you have made me
Oh how happy you have made me
Oh how happy you have made me
Oh how happy you have made me

You brought joy to my empty life, yeah
And all that's wrong, you made it right
My love (my love), I love (my love)
I love, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Oh how happy you have made me
Oh how happy you have made me
Oh how happy (Oh how happy)
Oh how happy (Oh how happy)

(You have made me) You have made
(Girl, you make me happy) You have made me
(Oh how happy) You have made me
(Girl, you make me happy...)

Bridge Over The Troubled Water lyrics - Jackson 5

(originally by Simon & Garfunkel)

When you're weary
Feeling small
When tears are in your eyes
I'll dry them all
I'm on your side

Woh, when times get rough
And friends just can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down

(When you're down and out)
(When you're on the street)
(When evening falls so hard)
(I will comfort you)
Ooh, I'll take your part

Oh, and darkness comes
And pain is all around
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down

(I will lay me down)
(I will lay me down)
Sail on silver, girl
Sail on by

Your time has come to shine
All your dreams along the way, yeah
See how they shine
Oh, if you need a friend

I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind

(I will ease your mind)
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
(Like a bridge over troubled water)
I will be by your side
I will be by your side

Can I See You In The Morning lyrics - Jackson 5

Can I see you (Can I see you)
In the morning (In the morning)
Can I see you (Can I see you)
In the morning (In the morning)

Can I see you in the morning
Like I see you late tonight
Come and hold me
Come and hold me

Come and make me feel alright
In the morning
Can I see you in the morning?

Can I see you in the morning
Must I get down on my knees?
Come and take me
Come and take me
Do with me just what you please
Just a short walk in the sunshine
In the open side by side (In the morning)
Chance to hold you
Chance to hold you
Chance to hold my head up high
In the morning

They say you're too old for me
But I know you said that you'll wait for me, wait for me, oh

Can I, see you, in the morning sun, shining bright?
I wanna see you
I wanna see you
Can I, see you, in the morning sun, shining bright? (In the morning)
Can I see you?
Can I see you?

(Can I see you) In the morning
Can I see you (Can I see you)
In the morning (In the morning)
In the morning (In the morning)
Can I see you (Can I see you)
In the morning (In the morning)
Can I see you (Can I see you)
In the morning (In the morning)
Can I see you (In the morning)

Goin' Back To Indiana lyrics - Jackson 5

I'm going back to Indiana
Back to where I started from
Going back to Indiana
Indiana, here I come!

I spread my wings for greener pastures
I still ain't found what I was after
I've got the blues and that is why I sing
I just wanna do my thing, yeah!

I'm going back to Indiana

I saw a lot of movie stars with diamond rings
But I ain't got my baby and I'm feeling wrong
That's why I gotta sing my song, yeah

I'm going back to Indiana
Indiana, here I come
I'm going back to Indiana
'Cause that is where my baby's from
Yeah

I still got Indiana soul in me!

Oh, yeah!

I'm going back to Indiana
Indiana, here I come
I'm going back to Indiana
'Cause that's where my baby's from

That's where is she is, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Yeah)
Hoo hoo

We kiss for thrills, then you draw the line
Oh baby (Oh baby)
'Cause your mama told you that love ain't right
But don't you know good loving is the spice of life

Won't you give my love a whirl

Reach In lyrics - Jackson 5

Can't find no rhyme to it all
But still we keep on trying
The why and where of it all
Inside you the answer is lying

Reach in (reach in)
Find that tree of wisdom
Reach in (reach in)
Find out why you're livin'
Reach in (reach in)
Pull away that shade of sin
And let love shine in...
And let love shine in...
Shine, shine, shine, shine...

Don't take the easy way out
Believe there is a Maker
Don't be a body of doubt
In whom does live a faker

Reach in (reach in)
Find that tree of wisdom
Reach in (reach in)
Find out why you're livin'
Reach in (reach in)
Pull away that shade of sin
And let love shine in...
And let love shine in...

A soul without love
Is a soul without meaning
And the Lord up above
He'll destroy every being

Reach in...ooh, reach in...ooh yeah, tell 'em, baby

Reach in (reach in)
Find that tree of wisdom
Reach in (reach in)
Find out why you're livin'
Reach in (reach in)
Reach in, oh oh, why don't you, why don't you, why don't you
Why don't you reach in, into your soul, oh

The Love I Saw In You Was Just A Mirage lyrics - Jackson 5

(originally by Smokey Robinson)

There you were beautiful
The promise of love was written on your face
You led me on with untrue kisses
You held me captured in your false embrace

Quicker than I could bat an eye
Seems you were telling me goodbye
Just a minute ago your love was here
All of a sudden it seemed to disappear
Sweetness was only heartache's camouflage
The love I saw in you was just a mirage

You promised that happiness we'll ever share
But all I have are memories of love that was never there

We used to meet in romantic places
You gave the illusion that your love was real
Now all that's left are lipstick traces
From the kisses you only pretended to feel

And now our meeting you avoid
And so my world you have destroyed
Just a minute ago your love was here
All of a sudden it seemed to disappear
The way you wrecked my life was like sabotage
The love I saw in you was just a mirage

You brought me up just to throw me down
You love me and my dreams shattered all on your ground

You only filled me with despair
By showing love that wasn't there
Just like the desert shows a thirsty man
A green oasis where there's only sand
You lured me into something I should have dodged
The love I saw in you was just a mirage

To you I gave true love from deep within
You made me hungry for your love
When it was not deeper than your skin

Just like the desert shows a thirsty man
A green oasis where there's only sand
You lured me into, into something I should have dodged
The love I saw in you was just a mirage

Darling Dear lyrics - Jackson 5

The game of love is such a beautiful game
If you've got time, little girl, I'd like to explain
All the do's and don'ts, all the "will"s and "won't"s

So lend an ear, darlin' dear
(Sweet darlin' dear)

Do be sincere, and true love will appear
Don't be shy, or love will pass you by
If you will, my heart you may steal
If you don't, the game of love you lose alone

(Darlin' dear)

Do be sincere, and true love will appear
Don't be shy, or love will pass you by
If you will, my heart you may steal
If you don't, the game of love you lose alone

(First)
First I'll place my arms, so gently around you
(Then)
Then whisper "Darlin', I'm so glad I found you"
Then your lips unwind, a simple touch wouldn't mind
A kiss will stay, darlin' dear
(Sweet darlin')
Darlin', darlin' dear, yeah
(Sweet darlin' dear)
Darlin' dear
(Sweet darlin' dear)
Darlin' dear

ABC (1970)












The Love You Save lyrics - Jackson 5

Stop! Na, na, na! You'd better save it
Stop, stop, stop, you'd better save it

When we played tag in grade school
You wanted to be it
But chasing boys was just a fad
You crossed your heart you'd quit

When we grew up, you traded
Your promise for my ring
Now, just like back to grade school
You're doing the same old thing

Stop! The love you save may be your own
Darling, take it slow
Or someday, you'll be all alone
You'd better stop! The love you save may be your own
Darling, look both ways before you cross me
You're headed for a danger zone

I'm the one who loves you
I'm the one you need
Those other guys will put you down
As soon as they succeed

They'll ruin your reputation
They'll label you a flirt
The way they talk about you
They'll turn your name to dirt
Oh

Isaac said he kissed you
Beneath the apple tree
When Benji held your hand he felt
Electricity

When Alexander called you
He said he rang your chime
Christopher discovered
You're way ahead of your time

Stop! The love you save may be your own
Darling, take it slow
Or someday, you'll be all alone
You'd better stop! The love you save may be your own
Darling, look both ways before you cross me
You're headed for a danger zone

Slow down
Slow down
Slow down
Slow down

S is for "Save it"
T is for "Take it slow"
O is for "Oh, no!"
P is for "Please, please, don't go!"

The love you save may be your own
Some day, you may be all alone
Stop it
Save it, girl
Baby! Ooh

You'd better stop! The love you save may be your own
Please, please
Or someday, someday, baby, you'll be all alone

I'm the one who loves you
I'm the one you need
Those other guys will put you down as soon as they succeed

Stop! The love you save may be your own, baby
You'd better stop it, stop it, stop it, girl
Or someday, you'll be all alone

The way they talk about you
They'll turn your name, turn your name to dirt
Stop! The love you save may be your own!
Don't you know? Don't you know?
Someday, baby, you'll be all alone

Wait a while
Those other guys will put you down as soon as they succeed

One More Chance lyrics - Jackson 5

Mm, hmm, yeah, yeah
Yeah

Everybody loves the star
When he's on the top
But no-one ever comes around
When he starts to drop

But you were someone special
You stuck through thick and thin
But I was much too busy trying to shine
To let your love shine in

Let you slip away
I must have been insane
Stop in the name of love
Don't make me live my life in vain

Give me one more chance
That's all I ask of you
Just one more chance
I'll make it up to you
Just one more chance
That's all I ask of you
I'll build you a world for two
I'll make it up to you

Now since I'm all alone (Since I'm all alone)
I'm talking to myself (Talking to myself)
I know you're out there somewhere
Having fun with someone else (Fun)

But a distant voice of hope
Echo from within, saying
(Don't give up)
(Your ship is coming in)

Though my chips are low
I'll play right to the end
I'm crying outside Heaven's door
Won't you let me back in?

Give me one more chance
That's all I ask of you
Just one more chance
I'll make it up to you
Oh, one more chance
That's all I ask of you
I'll build you a world for two
I'll make it up to you

You'll never know
What I've been through
Let your love shine in again
This time I'll shine with you

Oh, one more chance
That's all I ask of you
Just one more chance
I'll make it up to you
Oh, one more chance
That's all I ask of you
I'll build a world for two
I'll make it up to you

Oh, one more chance
That's all I ask of you
Just one more chance
I'll make it up to you
Oh, one more chance
That's all I ask of you
I'll build a world for two
I'll make it up to you

Oh, one more chance
That's all I ask of you
I'll make it up to you
I'll build a world for two
Oh

ABC lyrics - Jackson 5

A buh-buh buh buh
A buh-buh buh buh

You went to school to learn, girl
Things you never, never knew before
Like "I before E, except after C"
And why two plus two makes four
Now, now, now, I'm gonna teach you (Teach you, teach you)
All about love, yeah! (All about love!)
Sit yourself down, take a seat
All you gotta do is repeat after me

A, B, C
Easy as 1, 2, 3
Or simple as Do-Re-Mi
A, B, C, 1, 2, 3, baby, you and me, girl!
A, B, C
Easy as 1, 2, 3
Or simple as Do-Re-Mi
A, B, C, 1, 2, 3, baby, you and me, girl!

Come on, let me love you just a little bit!
Come on, let me love you just a little bit!
I'ma gonna teach how to sing it out!
Come on, come on, come on
Let me show you what it's all about!

Reading, writing, 'rithmetic
Are the branches of the learning tree
But without the roots of love every day, girl
Your education ain't complete
T-t-t-teachers gonna show you (Show you, show you)
How to get an "A"! (Nyah nyah nyah nyah!)
Spell me, you (You add the two)
Listen to me, baby, that's all you gotta do!

Oh, A, B, C
It's easy as 1, 2, 3
Or simple as Do-Re-Mi
A, B, C, 1, 2, 3, baby, you and me, girl!

A, B, C, it's easy, it's like counting up to three
Sing a simple melody
That's how easy love can be
Now, that's how easy love can be
Sing a simple melody
1, 2, 3, you and me (Yeah)

Sit down, girl!
I think I love you!
No!
Get up, girl!
Show me what you can do!
Shake it, shake it, baby, come on now!
Shake it, shake it, baby, ooh-ooh!
Shake it, shake it, baby, huh!
1, 2, 3, baby, ooh-ooh
A, B, C, baby, nah nah!
Do-Re-Mi, baby, huh!
That's how easy love can be

A, B, C, it's easy, it's like counting up to three
Sing a simple melody
That's how easy love can be

I'm-a gonna teach you how to sing it out!
Come on, come on, come on
Let me show you what it's all about!
A, B, C, it's easy, it's like counting up to three
Sing a simple melody
That's how easy love can be
I'ma gonna teach you how to sing it out, sing it out, sing it out! (Oh! Oh! Oh, baby!)
A, B, C, it's easy, it's like counting up to three
Sing a simple melody
That's how easy...

2-4-6-8 lyrics - Jackson 5

2-4-6-8, who do you appreciate
Please say that boy it's me
2,4,6,8, who do you appreciate
I'm the one who wants to be your baby
2-4-6-8, who do you appreciate

Get up early to see you in the morning but you just past me by
If I were Jack Horner sitting in the corner with you I'd share my pie
I past your homeroom wishing you were my own room
Every time I looked inside
I sit here hoping someday you'll notice the look here in my eyes

2-4-6-8, who do you appreciate
Please be my pride and joy
2-4-6-8, who do you appreciate
I wanna be your lover boy

I maybe a little fella but my hearts as big as Texas
I have all the love a man can give and maybe a little bit extra
Ooh be my girl
The best time of day for me is at recess
That's when you talked to me
I think I'm the boy you like the best
I want more than a friend to be

He wanna be your fella just trying to tell ya but you pay him no mind
He's no price charmer still he keeps trying girl you're so unkind
I can love you really really love you, I can tell at just a glance
I can please you really really please you girl give me half a chance

Come 'Round Here I'm The One You Need lyrics - Jackson 5

(originally by The Miracles)

Now you say every time you need some affection
The one you love goes in another direction
You just sit back in a daze, reminiscing
'Cause you know some other lips he's been kissing

Now when you need the love he'll never show you
Come around here
And when you need some loving arms to hold you
Come around here

Now, I may not be the one you want
(Honey, honey)
But I know I'm the one you need
(Honey, honey)
Say now, I may not be the one you want
(Honey, honey)
But I know I'm the one you need
(Honey, honey)

Your life stands still
The minute he goes
You count the hours
Just hoping he shows

Girl, can't you see while you're longing for his touch
(Honey, honey)
That I'm the one who loves you so much
(Honey, honey)
And while you're longing for his embrace
(Honey, honey)
You're all lonely with the tears on your face
(Honey, honey)

Now when you feel the need to cry to someone
Cry to me
And when you feel the need to lean on someone
Lean on me

Now, I may not be the one you want
(Honey, honey)
Oh, but I'm sure 'nough the one you need
(Honey, honey)
Oh, I may not be the one you want
(Honey, honey)
But I'm sure 'nough the one you need
(Honey, honey)

Now the days, the days, the days you sit alone by yourself
He's out fooling around with somebody else
Leaving you alone here with nothing to do
He's just waiting 'til he has time for you

Now, when the loneliness get hard to bear, girl
Come around here
And when you need a little tender love and care, girl
Come around here

Now, I may not be the one you want
(Honey, honey)
Ooh, but I'm sure 'nough the one you need
(Honey, honey)
Oh yeah, I may not be the one you want
(Honey, honey)
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby!
(Honey, honey)

I may not be the one you want
(Honey, honey)
But, I'm sure 'nough the one you need...

Don't Know Why I Love You lyrics - Jackson 5

(originally by Stevie Wonder)

Oh, sure 'nough, baby, baby, baby... ooh, ooh

I don't know why I love you
I don't know why I love you
I don't know why I love you but I love you

Always treat me like a fool
Kick me when I'm down that's your rule
I don't know why I love you, but I love you
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Oh you'll never, you'll never stop your cheating ways
With another guy you laughed in my face
Lord how long must I be disgraced
'Cause I love you, oh, baby, baby, baby

I don't know why I love you
I don't know you and me, baby, oh yeah
I don't know why I love you, but I love you, baby
Oh darling, darling, darling, darling ...

You throw my heart down in the dirt
Oh, you make me crawl
On this cold black earth, baby, yeah
I never knew, I never knew how much I could hurt
'Til I love you, baby, baby, baby, baby, yeah

Can't stop, I can't stop crying can't you see
Here I'm pleading on my knees
Upon my knees, yeah, baby, yeah
Won't you help me, help me please
'Cause I love you, love you, love you, oh
(Sure 'nough, baby)

I don't know, we don't know, we don't know nothing about it
(I don't know why I love you... Oh! Oh!)
I don't know why I love you, baby, baby
(I don't know, I don't know)
I don't know why I love you, baby, baby... don't know why though

Never Had A Dream Come True lyrics - Jackson 5

(originally by Stevie Wonder)

I never, never had a dream come true
In my every daydream
I'm loved by you

And we're free as the wind, ah yeah
And true love is no sin
Therefore men are men, not machines

I never, never had a dream come true
Without you, the world out there
Is painted shades of blue, yeah

Since our roads never cross
I work just to please the boss
Think I might as well get lost in my dreams

I never had a dream come true
I guess I'm gonna, I'm gonna dream you about you, baby
My whole life through, yeah

Seems my folks are ashamed, ah yeah
Said I ain't worth a thing, Lord, Lord
But I'm glad I am chained to my dreams

True Love Can Be Beautiful lyrics - Jackson 5

True love can be beautiful

Searching
Been looking everywhere
Soon I'll find you, girl
I know I'm getting closer now
Can't wait to hold you, girl

The day I find you, girl, you'll love me

Hey, girl
When you're in my arms you'll want to keep for me
I'm sure
‘cause my love's that strong you'll be too weak to leave me

The day I find you, girl, you'll love me

Each day I try harder
With faith and confidence
I know I'll get you

True love can be beautiful but it takes time
True love can be beautiful but it takes time

So close
I can still feel your heartbeat but you're not here
But my searching is all over now that you're growing near

Today I finally found you, girl, and you love me

You're here in my arms
Where you'll stay today
Always...
Always...

True love can be beautiful but it takes time
True love can be beautiful but it takes time

Today I found you, girl
You love me

True love can be beautiful but it takes time
True love can be beautiful but it takes time

La-La Means I Love You lyrics - Jackson 5

(originally by The Delfonics)

Many guys have come to you
With a line that wasn't true
And you passed them by
Are you in the center ring
And their lines don't mean a thing
Why don't you let me try
No, I don't wear a diamond ring
I don't even know a song to sing

All I know is la-la la-la la-la la-la la means I love you
Oh, baby, please, now
La-la la-la la-la la-la la means I love you

If I ever saw a girl
That I needed in this world
You are the one for me
Let me hold you in my arms
Girl, and thrill you with my charms
I'm sure you will see
The things I am sayin' are true
And the way I explain them to you
Listen to me

La-la la-la la-la la-la la means I love you
Oh, baby please now
La-la la-la la-la la-la la means I love you
Oh, yeah, yeah

The things I am sayin' are true
And the way I explain them to you
Yes, to you
Listen to me
La-la la-la la-la la-la la means I love you

Oh, you got to understand now
La-la la-la la-la la-la la means I love you
Oh, come on and take my hand now
La-la la-la la-la la-la la means I love you
Come on, and be my only one now

I'll Bet You lyrics - Jackson 5

(originally by Funkadelic)

Ice cream cone on a red hot stove will melt, and I'll bet ya
A drowning man's very first word is help, and I'll bet ya
If you bet on a horse and the horse don't win, you lose, and I'll bet ya
If you try, to sit on air, you're gonna fall, and I'll bet ya

If you want a winning hand
If you want a perfect man
That you never lose my love
I'm gonna win, and I'll bet ya
That you never lose my love
I'm gonna win, and I'll bet ya

Take a car, without fuel, it ain't gonna move, and I'll bet ya
A carpenter can't build his house without any tools, and I'll bet ya
If your shoes are too small, they hurt your feet, and I'll bet ya
And you can't know what's goin' on, if you're asleep, oh I'll bet ya

If you want a winning hand
If you want a perfect man
That you never lose my love
I'm gonna win, and I'll bet ya
That you never lose my love
I know I'm gonna win, and I'll bet ya

Ooh, (ooh)
Argh, argh

I'll bet you never lose my love
I'm gonna win, and I'll bet ya
That you never lose my love
I know I'm gonna win, and I'll bet ya

I Found That Girl lyrics - Jackson 5

Ooh ooh
Mama, oh mama, I found that girl
Mama, oh mama, I found that girl

Mama, life for me now is a new sensation
Just like you said it would be with the right situation
Now love has a meaning and I have a goal
This feeling inside me now makes yester-me a hundred years old

Now I understand (I understand)
What is it to be a man (To be a man)
The way you explained it to me that day
You said only the right girl can make me feel this way, well

Mama, I think I found that girl (I found that girl)
Yeah, mama, I think I found that girl (I found that girl)

Ooh, mama, she's that beautiful dream that I dream each night
She's that bird of love, on whose wings I've been flying
She's those words left when there's no more to say
She's my sunshine at the end of a perfect day

All this lets me find (Lets me find)
A reason to be alive (To be alive)
The day when you sat me upon your knee
You said only the right girl could be all these things

Mama, I think I found that girl (I found that girl)
Yeah, mama, I think I found that girl (I found that girl)

You said, "Son, go on and search around
There's a good girl who's out there to be found."

And mama, I think I found that girl (I found that girl)
Yeah, mama, I think I found that girl (I found that girl)

Ooh
(Mama, oh, mama)
Whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh
(I found that girl)
Mm mm hmm
(Mama, oh, mama)
Mama, I know, I know I found that girl
(I found that girl)

The Young Folks lyrics - Jackson 5

(originally by The Supremes)

You better make a way for the young folks
Here we come and we're so alive
We're here for business buddy and don't want no jive
Brighter tomorrows are in our eyes

You better make a way for the young folks
Yeah yeah yeah yeah!

We say yes and you say no
We ask you why and you close the door

My old friend, I thought you knew by now, yeah
You can't do that to the young folks, oh
No no no no!
You might no like it, but I've got to tell you
I've got to tell you, oh yeah
You better make way for the young folks
Ooh, yeah

We're marching with signs
We're standing in lines, yeah, yeah
Protesting your rights
To turn out the lights in our lives
Here's the deal, accept it if you will
We're coming on strong, yeah
It's our turn to build

My old friend, I thought you knew by now, yeah
You gotta make a way for the young folks
Ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You may not like it, but I've got to tell you
I've got to tell you, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
You better make a way, you better make a way
You gotta make a way for the young folks, yeah, yeah
Oh, oh, yeah, yeah, ooh
You may not like it but I've got to tell you
I've got to tell you, na na na na
