David Ruffin - Essential Collection

I Let Love Slip Away

Huh uh uh uh uh...
Ooh huh baby...
I let love slip away.
Now all that I can say,
is here's a toast to a better day.
And a love that will come and stay
and keep me happy.
Love Oh Love Oh Love wherever you are.
I'll come on you near and afar.
Hurry love, as soon as you can.
Oh honey in the shape I'm in,
and make me happy.
Love Oh Love Oh Love Oh Love Oh Love.
Be as sweet and as caring as a dove.
Pleeeeeeease
Fly down, fly down from up above.
Take my hand, honey now, promise your love,
and I'll hold you tight.
With all of my might.
Now I sit back to wait
Oh hoo hooo hooo woo
I pray you don't make me too late.
Hurry love, hurry love as soon as you can honey,
and help me in the shape I'm in.
And make me happy.
Hurry loooooove.
Hurry love and in the shape I'm in.
Hurry love and make me happy.
Huuury love and keep me happy, yeah.
Hoooo oooooh ooooh oooh.
