To Be A Lover
Have I told you lately that I love you
If I didn't, darling, 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 making love to you
Forgot to be a lover, have mercy
Forgot to be a lover (have mercy)
Forgot to be a lover (have mercy)
Forgot to be a lover (have mercy, baby)
Make it on through to you somehow
Forgot to be a lover, babe (forgot to be a lover)
Woo! Yeah!
Ha! Woo-hoo
Yeah, well, did I ask you, yes, would you come and share
Oh, share, all the burden and the task that's a loves 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 making love to you
Forgot to be a lover, have mercy
Well, well, I worked all day as 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 making love to you
(Forgot to be a lover) forgot to be a lover, babe
Ooh, have mercy, babe (have mercy)
Have mercy, baby (have mercy, baby)
I'm gonna make it on through to you somehow
So have mercy (have mercy)
Forgot to be a lover (have mercy, baby)

Ah, but you know I really love you, baby (love you, baby)
