Silver threads and golden needles Cannot mend this heart of mine And I dare not drown my sorrows In the warm glow of your mind You can't buy my love with money 'Cause I ain't never was that kind I don't want your lonely mansion With a tear in every room

Give me a reason 'cause I got nothing to gain Feeling complacent I cannot be contained I'm so lost and lonely now So what are we doing now? Take me away Set me on fire There's no other way Feelings you see Are so hard to believe

Can you love me again? I need to know now, know now Rising up to you! There's nothing I can’t do! Do this again, oh no! Know I’ve done wrong, left your heart torn Is that what devils do? Took you so long, where only fools gone I shook the angel in you!

You've got me in your hand, why can't you understand. I love you honey, for more than words can say. Please, let me sit down beside you. I've got something to tell you, you should know. I just couldn't wait for not another day. I love you, for more than

My substitute for love The face of you Should I wait for you I traded fame for love Without a second thought It all became a silly a game Some things cannot be bought I got exactly what I asked for Wanted it so badly

I've been missing you for so many days I keep wanting you, Lord, in so many ways I can't get you off of my mind But true love is so hard to find I want yet another day Ooh, I need another day Darling, let me have another more day And I can be anything

Punches for you Love can beat us black and blue But darling, I'll take the punches for you I'm trying to start again Ooh, after all this time, got nothing to lose Ooh, after all this time, see nothing but you You might say, I'm wasted on you But when you

Sister big stuff You're never gonna get my love You're never gonna make me cry Who do you think you are? Not because yo' wear All those fancy clothes Drive around a big fine car Oh yes, you do now Do you think I can't afford

We may not always be the best of lovers But if you leave it to me I think I can see We'll always be the best of friends The best of friends And one day when I am old and on the porch With knittings around my knees you hear me say Excuse me please, but

Don't you hear me crying Tell me that you're trying Or is our love a lie Love is blind You came along and captured me Now I'm a prisoner of your eyes Trapped in time I cannot leave you I'm just a prisoner of your eyes
