The Motown Anthology

0

[Intro]
(Ba-ba-ba bow, ba-ba-ba bow
Ooh, ooh)
[Verse 1]
Love means caring
Love means sharing
Trusting and understanding
[Pre-Chorus]
Being able to laugh (Do-doo do)
Being able to cry (Do-doo do)
Never ever (Do-doo do)
Having to lie
Being true (Do-doo do)
And wanting to
Live together in harmony
That's what love means to me
[Chorus]
You’re the light that guides my way
When darkness comes along
The strength you give to me each day
And more, I need to carry on
[Interlude]
I reach out to you, and you held my hands
Smiled, and brought love into my world
[Verse 2]
You've proven your love for me
Waitеd patiently
Supported me in еvery way you could
[Pre-Chorus]
Whenever I depressed (Do-doo do)
Not feeling right (Do-doo do)
You always (Do-doo do)
Understood
You're so good for me (Do-doo do)
You’re the one I see
Whenever I need to be
With someone who understands me
[Chorus]
You're the light (Do-doo do)
That guides my way (Do-doo do)
The strength you give (Do-doo do)
To me each day
And I hope I need (Do-doo do)
To carry on
When darkness comes, hold on
[Bridge]
Tonight, tonight, I'll be your guiding light
Every day
Your light
I'll be your guiding light, oh baby
Ooh baby, light
[Outro]
I'll be your guiding light, every day, always
Your light, your light, I'll be your guiding light
I need each day
I need to carry on
I need you, I love you, ooh
You're the light (You're the light, my light, my light)
That guides my way, ooh baby
You’re the light (You’re the light, my light, my light)
I need each day
I need to carry on
Need you, I love you, ooh
You're the light (I’ll be your guiding light) (You're the light, my light, my light)
That guides my way, ooh baby
You're the light (I'll be your guiding light) (You’re the light, my light, my light)
I need each day
I need to carry on
I need you, I love you, ooh
You're the light (I'll be your guiding light) (You're the light, my light, my light)
That guides my way
