Marvin Gaye - Just to Keep You Satisfied lyrics

rate me

You were my wife, my life, my hopes and dreams

For you to understand what this means, I shall explain

I stood all the jealousy, all the bitchin' too

Yes, I'd forget it all once in bed with you

Ooo darling how could we end up like this?

Oh baby let me reminisce

Oh and when we, woo, stopped the hands of time

You set my soul on fire, my one desire

Was to love you and think of you with pride

And keep you satisfied, oh baby oh baby

We could not bear the mental strain

Leave you, I never meant to

Now you see how much you hurt me

But if you ever need me, I'll be by your side

Though the many happy times we had

Can never really outweigh the bad

Oh I'll never love nobody like I loved you baby

It's time for us to say farewell, farewell my darlin'

Maybe we'll meet down the line

It's too late for you and me, it's too late for you and I

Much too late for you to cry

It's too late for you and me, much too late for you and I

It's too late for you and me, much too late for you to cry baby

Ah we tried, God knows we tried

Now it's too late to live and love and ah it's too late baby

It's too late for you and me, much too late for you to cry

Oh oh ohhh it's much too late

Well, all we can do is, we can both try to be happy
