The Supremes - I Can't Make It Alone lyrics

rate me

Brian Holland-Lamont Dozier-Edward Holland, Jr.

The best years of my life I placed into your hands

Now suddenly you've made, you've made a change of plans

That world we built for two does not include me now

That world of pleasant dream is but a nightmare now.

On life's bridge we ran so gaily hand in hand

But it's all over now, that bridge is all burned down

Your love was all I could depend upon

Who can I turn to now, now that you抮e gone.

I can't make it alone

I need your love to call my own

I can't run, I can't hide from this love that's inside

All that I long to do is spend my life loving you

Every minute, every hour, always.

The joyful things that we used to do

That kept me right on, right on loving you

Oh, playing funny, childish games

Like running barefoot in the rain.

It was a special dream, a dream that I could feel

But now you抳e gone, life's so unreal

Your love is truly the only love I've known

What am I to do now that you're gone.

I can't make it alone

I need your love to call my own

I can't run, I can't hide from this love that's inside

All that I long to do is spend my life loving you

Every minute, every hour, every day.

Days have come and gone but they never find you here

Nights are twice as long, oh, without you, dear

After many, many faithful years

How could you cause me so many tears?

I can't make it alone

I need your arms around me

I can't make it alone

I need your arms around me

I can't make it alone

Just can't make it alone.
