Supremes - I Can't Make It Alone lyrics

rate me

Brian Holland-Lamont Dozier-Edward Holland, Jr.<br />

<br />

The best years of my life I placed into your hands<br />

Now suddenly you've made, you've made a change of plans<br />

That world we built for two does not include me now<br />

That world of pleasant dream is but a nightmare now.<br />

<br />

On life's bridge we ran so gaily hand in hand<br />

But it's all over now, that bridge is all burned down<br />

Your love was all I could depend upon<br />

Who can I turn to now, now that you抮e gone.<br />

<br />

I can't make it alone<br />

I need your love to call my own<br />

I can't run, I can't hide from this love that's inside<br />

All that I long to do is spend my life loving you<br />

Every minute, every hour, always.<br />

<br />

The joyful things that we used to do<br />

That kept me right on, right on loving you<br />

Oh, playing funny, childish games<br />

Like running barefoot in the rain.<br />

<br />

It was a special dream, a dream that I could feel<br />

But now you抳e gone, life's so unreal<br />

Your love is truly the only love I've known<br />

What am I to do now that you're gone.<br />

<br />

I can't make it alone<br />

I need your love to call my own<br />

I can't run, I can't hide from this love that's inside<br />

All that I long to do is spend my life loving you<br />

Every minute, every hour, every day.<br />

<br />

Days have come and gone but they never find you here<br />

Nights are twice as long, oh, without you, dear<br />

After many, many faithful years<br />

How could you cause me so many tears?<br />

<br />

I can't make it alone<br />

I need your arms around me<br />

I can't make it alone<br />

I need your arms around me<br />

I can't make it alone<br />

Just can't make it alone.
