You're all I need to get by.
Like the sweet morning dew, I took one look at you, And it was plain to see, you were my destiny. With my arms open wide, I threw away my pride I'll sacrifice for you Dedicate my life for you I will go where you lead Always there in time of need And when I lose my will You'll be there to push me up the hill There's no, no looking back for us We got love sure 'nough, that's enough You're all, You're all I need to get by. Hey!
Golden, golden, golden As I open my eyes Hold it, focus, hoping Take me back to the light I know you were way too bright for me I'm hopeless, broken So you wait for me in the sky Browns my skin just right You're so golden You're so golden I'm out of my head And I know that you're scared Because hearts get broken I don't wanna be alone I don't wanna be alone When it ends Don't wanna let you know I don't wanna be alone But I, I can feel it take a hold (I can feel it take a hold) I can feel you take control (I can feel you take control) Of who I am and all I've ever known Loving you's the antidote Thanks for the suggestion, Grace. I wonder if I'm being real
Do I speak my truth or do I filter how I feel? I wonder, wouldn't it be nice To live inside a world that isn't black and white? I wonder what it's like to be my friends Hope that they don't think I forget about them I wonder I wonder Right before I close my eyes The only thing that's on my mind Been dreaming that you feel it too I wonder what it's like to be loved by you Thank you, Rochelle, for the suggestion. I have it on good authority that this album is a classic for anyone who knows anything about jazz today. Enjoy!

Let's Build This!It's Back to the Future! Last year, one way my students and I connected was through songs. Let's continue to make this blog page a list of songs we can share to LIFT each other UP! Please post a comment and a song (title and artist). A link to the lyrics or an audio or video clip would also be great. Archives
