This is one of my favorite songs of all time… I`m addicted to it…
Gravity Is working against me And gravity Wants to bring me down
Whoa I'll never know What makes this man With all the love That his heart can stand Dream of ways To throw it all away
Whoa Gravity Is working against me And gravity Wants to bring me down
Oh twice as much Ain’t twice as good And can't sustain Like one half could It's wanting more It's gonna send me to my knees
instrumental
Oh twice as much Ain’t twice as good And can't sustain Like one half could It's wanting more It's gonna send me to my knees
Oh gravity Stay the hell away from me Oh gravity Has taken better men than me Now how can that be?
Just keep me where the light is Just keep me where the light is Just keep me where the light is C’mon keep me where the light is C’mon keep me where the light is C’mon keep me where keep me where the light is
Once, a few years back, my ex-sis-in-law (yeah that`s right, my bro used to be married to her)asked me to sing at her wedding (yeah, that`s right, they got divorced and she was getting re-married) to sing at her wedding. I sang at her first wedding (YES, her wedding to my brother, jeez you have a lot of questions) and so she thought it might be special if I sang at her second as well (Yay for me!). The first time I was like 17, and I sang "Evergreen" by Barbra Streisand... "Two lives that shine as one Morning glory and midnight sun Time we`ve learned to sail above Time wont change the meaning of one love Ageless and ever evergreen"
So, this time I was like 25, and I wanted to do something more soulful. I felt my style and taste had changed and she had no requests. So, I thought for a long time... and I came up with "A Song for You" by Donny Hathaway....
"love you in a place where there's no space or time I love you for in my life you are a friend of mine And when my life is over Remember when we were together We were alone and I was singing this song for you"
That song has stayed with me ever since. I think of it often and sing it when I`m in the car, shower, backyard... LOL... I still love that song. Oh God, it`s just amazing.
I used to think that I wasn't fine enough And I used to think that I wasn't wild enough But I won't waste my time tryin' to figure, out why you playing games, whats this all about And I can't believe, Your hurting me I met your girl, what a difference What you see in her You aint see in me But I guess it was all just make-believe
[Chorus]
Oh, Love never knew what I was missing but I knew once we started kissin' I found...... Love never knew what I was missin' but I knew once we start kissin' I found.....
[Verse 2]
Now you're gone, what am I gonna do I'm so oo empty my heart, my soul can't go on Go on baby without you.... My rainy days fade away when you, come around please tell me baby why you go so far away Why you go...
[Chorus]
Love...... never knew what I was missing but I knew once we started kissin' I found...... Love never knew what I was missin' but I knew once we start kissin' I found.....
I found you yeaaahhhh oooooo
Now you're gone, what am I gonna do I'm so oo empty my heart, my soul can't go on Go on baby without you.... Rainy days fade away when you come around say your here to stay With me boy I don't want you to leave me I need you.........
