Bring It Back Home Again

(album: We're Movin' Up - 1989)

Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do
Uh-huh

You're the love of my life
Girl, you're my woman, you're my wife
You are the mother of my children
Baby, you were everything I ever needed
How could I have been so blind
You're all I wanted
And you've been there all the time
I hunger for the warmth of your embrace
Lost from the world
Since my love has been misplaced

I wanna bring it back home again
To my first lady and to my best friend
When I'm with any other woman
I'm alone in the dark
You're the keeper to my soul
Girl, you're the queen of my heart

Just a matter of trust, mm-hmm
I traded my loyalty for lust
While your commitment to our love ran so deep
My only allegiance went to every girl I'd meet
Out of touch and in distress
Now that I'm faced with a life of emptiness
I beg for your forgiveness everyday
And hope to God you can hear me when I pray

I wanna bring it back home again
To my first lady and to my best friend
When I'm with any other woman
I'm alone in the dark
You're the keeper to my soul
Girl, you're the queen of my heart

And I can't make it
Through another sleepless night
Can't fake it
You were more than just my lover
You were my guiding light
And without your sweet loving
Love's nowhere in sight

I wanna bring it back home again
To my first lady and to my best friend
When I'm with any other woman
I'm alone in the dark
You're the keeper to my soul
Girl, you're the queen of my heart

I wanna bring it, bring it, bring it
Bring it, bring it, bring it, bring it
Bring it back home again to my first lady
And, ooh, alone in the dark
You're the keeper to my soul
Girl, you're the queen of my heart

Please take me back, girl
Please take me back, baby
Please take me back, girl
Please take me back, baby
Please take me, ooh, baby
You're the keeper to my soul
Hey, hey

I wanna bring it, bring it, bring it
Bring it, bring it back to you
I wanna bring it, bring it, bring it
Bring it back home, baby, yeah...
