You Can Depend on Me lyrics

Though you say we're through I'll always love you
You know you can depend on me
If you need a friend, I'm yours until the end
You know you can count on me

I wish you success and loads of happiness
But I must confess, I'll be lonely, I'll be lonely, I'll be lonely
If someone you've met has made you forget
You know you can count on me

Hey dig it, baby you got all me
Oh, anytime you're feelin' low an' love's got you moanin' low
You're sittin' with your bottle lookin' out the window
Pretty baby listen to me

I wanna tell you how I feel about you baby
How you got a way of sendin' me a reelin' from the top a' to the bottom
If I gotta naggy hokey way of feelin' poke me, poke me once again
We could do right, cookin' up a little rhythm

Move it jus' right and I'll show ya what you missed
Give it up, give it up, give up your love to me
An' I'll motivate, an' motivate, an' motivate, an' motivate, an' motivate
Along an' drive your blues away

Oh pretty baby I can dig what you been sayin'
What you been puttin' down makes my heart go aroun'
It's sweet music to my ear
But my dear I feel my heart's been broken all the time

I just can't stop from thinkin of the past, hurt from the last
It can hurt you for a long long time
But you sweet talkin' man, you move me with your jive
Lord, you make me feel like I'm alive again

The moment that I look into your eyes, so brown
Sweetheart I can't believe that the love bug's bit me
Can I believe it, can I believe it, can I believe it?
It's really really really really true love!

Baby I am talkin' to ya
Don't you know I'm really gonna be true to ya
Take me now, you know that I can't resist when you're talkin'
Ooo wee ooo wee ooo ooo wee ooo wee
I'm as crazy as a monkey in a tree

Shashay down where we can be alone
When the timin' and the moon is bright
Baby divine, I'm feelin' so fine
A little lovin' hasn't come along in a long long time
It's love so fine, it's divine, one more time!

Baby divine, I'm feelin' so fine
A little lovin' hasn't come along in a long long time
So divine, love so fine, one more time!
