Just To Keep You Satisfied

Marvin Gaye

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

Oh darlin'

How did we end up like this?

Oh baby let me reminisce

(Ooh baby) And when we

Ooh, we stop 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 yor side

Though the many happy times we had

Can really never outweigh the bad

Oh, I never loved nobody

Like I love you, baby

Now it's time for us to say farewell

Farewell my darlin'

Maybe we'll meet down the line

(Ooh baby) 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

Oh, we tried

God knows we tried

Now it's too late

To live and learn

Oh, it's too late, baby

It's too late for you and me

Much too late for you to cry

Oh

It's much too late



Talking:



Oh, well

All we can do is we can both try to be happy
