you think i'd leave your side baby
you know me better than that
you think i'd leave you down when you're down on your knees
i wouldn't do that
i'll tell you you're right when you want
and if only you could see into me
ha ah ah ah ah ah

oh when you're cold
i'll be there
hold you tight to me

when you're on the outside baby and you can`t get in
i will show you you're so much better than you know
when you're lost and you're alone and you cant get back again
i will find you darling and i will bring you home

and if you want to cry
i am here to dry your eyes
and in no time
you'll be fine

you think i'd leave your side baby
you know me better than that
you think id leave you down when you're down on your knees
i wouldn't do that
i'll tell you you're right when you want
and if only you could see into me
ha ah ah ah ah ah

oh when you're cold
i'll be there
hold you tight to me
when you're low
i'll be there
by your side baby

oh when you're cold
i'll be there
hold you tight to me
oh when you're low
i'll be there
by your side baby

Thanks for the welcome, and sorry I put this here instead of in Words of Love (that's where I thought I was putting it).

Sade has been around for many years, her most famous work has been songs like Smooth Operator, Your Love is King, Sweetest Taboo and more, she is mostly considered R&B, I like to think of her as more Jazz or Smooth Jazz - Easy Listening - very romantic music.

Her latest CD is called Lovers Rock and just came out within the last year and a half or so. Most of the songs on there have to do with love, the feeling of being in love.

She is the perfect music to sit and snuggle with your loved one, a nicely chilled bottle of wine (Orvietto Classico White is my personal fav), two wine glasses and a fireplace crackling in the background - and just let Sade set the mood, the rest is magic.

My favourites from Lovers Rock have to be "By Your Side" the lyrics I posted earlier, "Flow", "All About Our Love", "Lovers Rock" and "It's Only Love That Gets You Through"

More lyrics to come in another post. Here's a link to buy Lovers Rock from Amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000051VWW/qid=1013491190/sr=8 -2/ref=sr_8_67_2/002-8855600-2307255

it’s all about our love
so shall it be forever
never ending

after all this time
after all is said and done

we have seen some
suffering baby
it has not always been perfect

after all this time
after all is said and done

darling we know it
whatever may come
we can get through it
as if it’s just begun
oh it’s just begun

it’s all about our love
so shall it be forever
never ending
darling we know it

after all this time
after all is said and done

after all this time
after all is said and done

I am in the wilderness
you are in the music in the man's car next to me
somewhere in my sadness
I know I won't fall apart
completely

when I need to be rescued
and I need a place to swim
I have a rock to cling to
in the storm
when no-one can hear
me calling
I have you I can sing to

and in all this
and in all my life

you are the lovers rock
the rock that I cling to
you're the one
the one I swim to in a storm
like a lovers rock

when I need to be rescued
you're there
when I need a place to swim to
in the storm
I think of you
and in all my life
and in all my life

you are the lovers rock
the rock that I cling to
you're the one
the one I swim to in a storm
like a lovers rock

girl you are rich
even with nothing
you know tenderness
comes from pain
it's amazing how you love
and love is kind
and love can give
and get no gain

it's down a rugged road
you've come
though you had every reason you didn't come undone
somehow you made it to
the other side
you didn't suffer in vain

you forgive those who have trespassed against you
and you know tenderness comes from pain
it's amazing how you love
and love is kind
and love can give
and love needs
no gain

it's down a rugged road
you've come
though you had every reason you didn't come undone
somehow you made it to
the other side
you didn't suffer in vain

you didn't suffer in vain
you know it's only love
that gets you through
only love love
only love that gets
you through
