'Cause I Love You Songtext
von Lenny Williams

Girl, you know I, I, I love you
No matter what you do
And I hope you understand me
Every word I say is true
′Cause I love you (ooh, ooh, ooh love you)

Baby, I'm thinkin′ of you
Tryin' to be more of a man for you
And I don't have much of a chance
But we′re gonna see it through
′Cause I love you (because I love you)

Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Some men need lots of women
For their passions to fill
But I want only you, girl
If this isn't, if this isn′t, if this isn't God′s will
'Cause I, ′cause I love you


I, I love you, baby
With all my heart and soul
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

I love you
I need you
I want you
I need you

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, your love makes me grow stronger
It keeps me goin' on, oh baby

I'm glad I found you
I just love to be around you, oh baby
You′ve been so good to me, oh baby
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, hmm, hmm, hmm

You know, one time things got so bad
Until I had to go to one of my friends and talk to him
And I told him, I said, "You know, I′m having problems with the woman that I love
It seems that I call her on the phone and I, I just can't get her to answer
And then I went to her house and I saw her car parked in the driveway
I knocked on the door but still my knocks went unanswered
And then I went home and I, I watched television, until television went off


And then I played my records until I just didn′t want to hear them anymore
And finally I went to bed but I found myself waking up a few hours later
And the tears were running down my face"
And my friend told me, he said, "Lenny, you just ought to forget about her"
But I told my friend, I said, "You know, maybe you've never been in love
Like I′ve been in love and maybe you've never felt the things that I′ve felt"
But this is what I told my friend, I said, "You know, sometimes

You get lonely
You get lonely
You get lonely
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh"

And I cry, I cry
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
And the tears would fill up
In the wells, in the wells of my eyes are buried
And then it got so bad, it got so bad

'Til one time I thought I'd roll myself up in a big old ball and die
And then I met you, darling
And you smiled at me
Oh, oh, it was such a pretty smile, yes, it was
And you reached out your hand
You helped me (you helped me)
You helped me (you helped me)
You helped me

Oh, I′m glad, baby
I′m glad, baby
Oh, oh, oh, baby
Oh, oh, oh
I won't ever leave you, baby
I won′t ever grieve you, baby
I'm gon′ love you
Oh, oh, oh, baby, I'm glad, I′m glad baby
Oh, oh, yeah baby, oh, oh, oh

I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you
I love ya, I love ya, I love you
