Soul Provider

CHORUS:
How can we be lovers if we can't be friends
How can we start over when the fighting never ends
Baby, how can we make love if we can't make amends
Tell me how we can be lovers if we can't be,
can't be friends
Look at us now, look at us baby
Still tryin' to work it out
Never get it right
We must be fools, we must be crazy
Whoa, whoa, when there's no
communication
Whao, Whoa, it's a no win situation
CHORUS:
We lie awake, this wall between us
We're just not talking, we got so much to say
Let's break these chains, our love can free us
Whoa, Whoa, ain't it time we started tryin'
Whoa, whoa, gotta stop this love from dying
CHORUS:
Baby, love is tough but we can take it
Baby, times are rough but we can make it
We can work it out
CHORUS:

Baby, we've been in and out of love so many times
We keep reaching the end of the line
And giving up on each other
And darling, I don't think we can survive one
more good-bye
Can't cry one more tear or lie one more lie
We got one last chance to make it
But that's all we need if we just take it
CHORUS
Baby, we gotta stand up for love
Gotta hold on
'Cause I know what we got is worth
fighting for
And I know for sure, right or wrong
This is where we belong
Baby, this time we gotta stand up for love
Stand together
Can't settle for less than forever
I know there's nothing we can't rise above
If we just stand up for love
Baby, after everything we put each other
through
And no matter what damage we do
We still need one another
And sometimes when I hold you in my arms
somehow I see
As bad as we've been that's how good we can be
But we can't just say we want it
Gotta lay all our tomorrows on it
CHORUS
For all the dues we've paid
The magic we two have made
For all we've meant to one another
Once and for all we've gotta stand up
for each other
Baby, we gotta stand up for love
Gotta hold on
'Cause we know what we got is worth
fighting for
And we know for sure, right or wrong
Baby, this time we gotta stand up for love
Now or never
Can't settle for less than forever
I know there's nothing we can't rise above
If we just stand up for love

I've been down, i've been weak
And i've lost enough sleep over you
It's gonna take me some time
But i've made up my mind
I'll get through

I'm gonna learn to carry on now
'cause i'm determined to be strong now
Don't worry, don't worry
It's gonna be alright
Don't worry, don't worry
It's not the end of my life


Chorus
It's only my heart, breakin' inside me
It's only love, that's all it is
I won't beg, i won't plead
Won't get down on my knees for you
It's only my heart, it's only my heart


I'm not missing your touch
I don't hurt half as much as before
If i call you i swear
It don't mean that i care anymore
Just keep your love 'cause i don't need it
Wish i could make myself believe it
Don't worry, don't worry
Don't you be concerned
Don't worry, don't worry
It's not the end of my world


Chorus

So now you're back
So you've had your fun
And now you're comin' 'round again
Sure baby I should let you in
So you can let me down again
Well it doesn't really matter what
you say or do
You can tell me that you love me
But I know it ain't true
CHORUS
Cuz you wouldn't know love
If it knocked down your door
You wouldn't know it now
You never knew it before
If it fell in your hands from the
heavens above
You wouldn't know love
No, you wouldn't know love
You say you've changed
Say you've done me wrong
But you won't do it anymore
No darlin' I don't have to tell you
Where I heard that line before
Baby you'd say anything to get back
into my heart
But when it comes to lovin', you don't
even know where to start
CHORUS
Did you think I'd believe anything
that you'd say
Let you come back to me
Baby there's just no way
Baby I've had enough
You wouldn't know love
CHORUS

You're knockin' on my door
Say ya want me back again
Say ya wanna try once more
But a broken heart don't mend
Wasn't all that long ago
You swore that we were through
Don't know what you want from me
Don't know what I need from you
First you feel the pain
Then you start to cry
When someone breaks your heart
Just makes you wanna die
Ya feel you can't go on
Can't face another day
Until the hurt is gone
Love cuts you deep that way
I remember I gave my heart completely
I remember the lesson that you taught me
CHORUS
Love cuts deep, baby, love cuts deep
And it leaves a scar
Right across your heart
First you feel the pain
Then you start to cry
When someone breaks your heart
Love cuts you deep inside
I used to call your name
But you were never there
And now you came to me
Expecting me to care
I remember the words you once said to me
Like a knife, those words just cut right through me
CHORUS
You give your heart to somebody
You give your soul to someone
You love somebody, you love somebody
And they're gone, gone, gone
You gave your heart to somebody
You gave your soul to someone
You loved somebody, you loved somebody
And they're gone, gone
Somebody finally taught you
CHORUS

I could hardly believe it
When I heard the news today
I had to come and get it straight from you
They said you were leavin'
Someone's swept your heart away
From the look upon your face, I see it's true
So tell me all about it, tell me 'bout the
plans you're makin'
Then tell me one thing more before I go


CHORUS
Tell me how am I suppose to live without you
Now that I've been lovin' you so long
How am I suppose to live without you
How am I suppose to carry on
When all that I've been livin' for is gone


I didn't come here for cryin'
Didn't come here to break down
It's just a dream of mine is coming to an end
And how can I blame you
When I build my world around
The hope that one day we'd be so much
more than friends
And I don't wanna know the price I'm
gonna pay for dreaming
When even now it's more than I can take


CHORUS


BRIDGE
And I don't wanna face the price I'm
gonna pay for dreaming
Now that your dream has come true


CHORUS
