To Be a Lover
Have I told you lately that I love you
If I didn't, darlin' you see, I'm so sorry
Didn't I reach out and hold you in these lovin' arms
Well, if I didn't, oh baby, well, I'm so sorry
When I realized that you need love too
Gonna spend my life makin' love to you
Got to be a lover
Have mercy
Forgot to be a lover, babe. (have mercy)
Forgot to be a lover, (have mercy)
Forgot to be a lover
Make it on through to you somehow, (have mercy, baby)
Got to be a lover, babe, (forgot to be a lover)
Woo! Woo!
Well, did I ask you
Yes, would you come and share
Oh, share
Oh, the burden and the task
That's at love's command
Didn't I say all those lovin' special things
That you long to hear
To show how much I care
Well, when I realize that you need love too
Gonna spend my life makin' love to you
Forgot to be a lover
Have mercy
Well, well I worked all day, hard as I can
Worked all night, didn't make me a man
(Forgot to be a lover)
Have mercy, ooh
When I realized that you need love too
Gonna spend my life makin' love to you (forgot to be a lover)
Got to be a lover, babe
Ooh, mercy (have mercy)
Have mercy, baby (have mercy, baby)
