- You Will KnowVer letra 5:00
[X]Lonely one of young so brokenheartedletra de You Will Know
Traveling down the rigid road of life
Using pharmaceutical extractions
To find the paradise
Finds the high but comes down feeling lower
Gets down on their knees and starts to pray
Looking up to heaven for the answer
They hear a voice that says
You will know
Troubled heart you'll know
Problems have solutions
Trust and I will show
You will know
Troubled heart you'll know
Every life has reason
For I made it so
Single parent trying to raise their children
But they would much rather not alone
Reaches out to find that special someone
To make their house a home
Finds someone but no one is the right one
Gets down on their knees and starts to pray
Looking up to heaven for the answer
They hear a voice that says
You will know
Lonely heart you'll know
Problems have solutions
Trust and I will show
You will know
Lonely heart you'll know
Every life has reason
For I made it so

On the corner of Main and Dog-Meat-Bite
Friday midnights would not be right
Without Redd's hot party and a nasty fight
But I'll be in your corner
I'll be in your corner, if they do
I'll be in your corner
I'll be in your corner, if they do
You can't renege cause it's going to be alive
Fine women, lots of liquor and stuff for your mind
Now where we're going they don't like your kind
But they'll cool out when you tell them you're a friend of mine
'Cause I'll be in your corner
I'll be in your corner, if they do
I'll be in your corner
I'll be in your corner, if they do
You can't tell your pa and mama
Where we're going going till after we've been there
'Cause that might make their poor heads worry
And worrying can cause grey hair
And one thing might lead to another
And if there'e any trouble they'll blame it on me
I think we just might have two to go
The pretty looking over here from the middle of the floor
We'll make a b-line to Hotel La Sin
Where you'll do the talking to get us in
And I'll be in your corner
I'll be in your corner, if they do
We shoulda been long gone 'cause this place is hot
'Cause in the corner there are two brothers that are undercover cops
If they stop us for questionning mum is the word
'Cause a question not answered is an answer not heard
And I'll be in your corner
I'll be in your corner, if they do
I'll be in your corner
I'll be in your corner, if they do
You can't tell your pa and mama
Where we're going going till after we've been there
'Cause that might make their poor heads worry
And worrying can cause grey hair
And one thing might lead to another
And if there's any trouble they'll blame it on me

Músicos invitados: Stevie Wonder (Vocals), Stevie Wonder (Other [Heartbeat]), Stevie Wonder (Percussion [Natural Percussion])[X]Honey, sweetletra de With Each Beat of My Heart
I've got something to say to you in privacy
Something I'd like for you to hear
And only your ears alone
Secretly, I've been admiring you intensely
So much so I'd like to settle down with you
And make a home
You are my first breath
My first smile
And my morning cup of tea
Yours is the love
That I pray for
Before I go to sleep
From the time I saw your face
I knew no other could erase
My loving you with each beat of my heart
Until the day I heard you speak
I didn't know that sound was sweet
Me hearing you in each beat of my heart
There's a time when playing ends
And the serious begins
Like the love that I felt from the start
With each beat of my heart
Honey, sweet
I soared into a heaven's galaxy
So hypnotized was I
From seeing all the magic in your eyes
So I bring
To you what's been a lifetime fantasy
Of being with the only one who can
Create my paradise
You are my first breath
My first smile
And my morning cup of tea
Yours is the love
That I pray for
Before I go to sleep
From the time I saw your face
I knew no other could erase
My loving you with each beat of my heart
Until the day I heard you speak
I didn't know that sound was sweet
Me hearing you in each beat of my heart
There's a time when playing ends
And the serious begins
Like the love that I felt from the start
With each beat of my heart
There's a time when playing ends
And the serious begins
Like the love that I felt from the start
With each beat of my heart - One of a KindVer letra 5:10

Existing from day to day
Feeling love would never
Come our way
Watching lover share their bliss
Sadly wishing only if
Believing that we had to live
Life like this
But Like a bolt of lightning
As when two stormy clouds collide
We made a joyful happening
To our lives
Now we're as happy as can be
Me loving you and you loving me
Two hearts intertwined
Which makes us one of a kind
Feeling the charge of a love evermore
Knowing that love is enough to live for
It feels so fine
Sharing love one of a kind
One of a kind now baby
Your love and mine, such ecstasy
One of kind sweet darling
The only way love is meant to be
United love so fine
Living in love one of a kind
It feels nothing but fine
Sharing our love one of kind
-Harmonica Solo-
If we had a second chance
At living a second time
We'd change everything but our love
In our lives
'Cause like a big disaster
Lost in a never-ending night
We light a light of magic
Now we're as happy as can be
Me loving you and you loving me
Two hearts intertwined
Which makes us one of a kind
Feeling the charge of a love evermore
Knowing that love is enough to live for
It feels so fine
Sharing love one of a kind
One of a kind, now baby
Your love and mind, such ecstasy
One of a kind, sweet darling
The only way love is meant to be

Itchin' to come outside
Messin' with your conscience
In a way your face can't hide
Oh things are gettin' real funky
Down at the old corral
And it's not the skunks that are stinkin'
It's the stinkin' lies you tell
[Bridge]
What did your mama tell you about lies
She said it wasn't polite to tell a white one
What did your daddy tell you about lies
He said one white lie turns into a black one
So, it's gettin' ready to blow
It's gettin' ready to show
Somebody shot off at the mouth and
We're getting ready to know
It's gettin' ready to drop
It's gettin' ready to shock
Somebody done turned up the heater
An' a it's gettin' ready to pop
Crevices in your pantry
Now what do we have in here
Havin' a day time nightmare
Has always been your biggest fear
Oh things are gettin' real crucial
Up the old wazoo
Yet you cry, why am I the victim?
When the culprit's y-o-u
[Bridge]
What did your mama tell you about lies
She said it wasn't polite to tell a white one
What did your daddy tell you about lies
He said one white lie turns into a black one
So, it's gettin' ready to blow
It's gettin' ready to show
Somebody shot off at the mouth and
We're gettin' ready to know
It's gettin' ready to drop
It's gettin' ready to shock
Somebody done turning the heater
An' a it's gettin' ready to pop
It's gettin' ready to seep
You're gettin' ready to freak
Somebody done picked up the talk box
And gettin' ready to speak
It's gettin' ready to jive
It's gettin' ready to gel
Somebody done gone let the lid off
And it's gettin' ready to smell
They're gettin' ready to deal
You're gettin' ready to ill
Somebody done just dropped the big dime
And they're gettin' ready to squeal
It's gettin' ready to turn
We're gettin' ready to learn
Somebody done fired up the brimstone
And you're gettin' ready to burn
It's gettin' ready to shake
You're gettin' ready to ache
Somebody done snitched to the news crew
And it's gettin' ready to break
You're gettin' ready to lie
They're gettin' ready to spy
Somebody' s been put on the hot seat
And you're gettin' ready to fry - Get ItVer letra 4:31

Is putting her love on the shelf
Cause she don't want
To be hurt by nobody else
She's taken her heart
And put it away under lock and key
But it's high time
Miss Lady Girl sets her heart free and gives her love to me
[MJ] ... Some think that diamond rings, fancy cars
Will make a big impression
But I know that all she needs is my tender
Love and affection
Cause she still says
That no one's gonna get it
No one's gonna get it, oh no
But someone's gotta get it
And I feel that I will be the one who will
[SW] ... No one's gonna get it
No one's gonna get it, oh no
But someone's gotta get it
And I know that I will be the one who will
[MJ] ... Gonna get it, her love
[SW] ... Gonna get it, her kisses
[MJ] ... Gonna get it, her heart
[BOTH] ... Gonna get it, get it
[MJ] ... Miss Lady Girl
Has buried her feelings deep inside
Cause she don't want
To be taken for another ride
She's sick and tired
of being on that lonely merry-go-round
She just don't know
That the ultimate love
Of her life is about to be found
[SW] ... They think that ready cash, flashy clothes
Will fill her life with laughter
But I've got the very thing that she needs
True love forever after
Then no more will she say
That no one's gonna get it
No one's gonna get it, oh no
But someone's gotta get it
And I feel that I will be the one who will
[MJ] ... No one's gonna got it
No one's gonna get It, oh no
But someone's gonna get it
And I know that I will be the one who will
Gonna get it, her love
Gonna get it, her kisses
Gonna get it, her heart
Gonna get it, gonna get it, [etc.] - Galaxy ParadiseVer letra 3:52
Músicos invitados: Steve Wise (Backing Vocals)[X]You are so unpredictableletra de Galaxy Paradise
When I am not
You are so irresistible
That I can't stop
You say my name
And start walking on heaven
What flying saucer did you come here on
What extraterrestrial planet are you from
You're much more than life
You are from galaxy paradise
What flying saucer did you come here on
What will they say when they find that you're gone
Say you'll stay in my life
Queen from galaxy paradise
You are so unforgettable
When I will not
Our love's far more than sensual
And twice as hot
You touch my hand
And I know that we'll love forever
What flying saucer did you come here on
What extraterrestrial planet are you from
You're much more than life
You are from galaxy paradise
What flying saucer did you come here on
What will they say when they find that you're gone
Say you'll stay in my life

Flowin' freely through infinity
Free to be sure of
What I am and who I need not be
Free from all worries
Worries prey on oneself's troubled mind
Freer than the clock's hands
Tickin' way the times
Freer than the meaning of free that man defines
Life running through me
Till I feel my father God has called
Me having nothin'
But possessing riches more than all
And I'm free
To be nowhere
But in every place I need to be
Freer than a sunbeam
Shinning through my soul
Free from feelin' heat or knowing bitter cold
Free from conceiving the beginning
For that's the infinite start
I'm gone - gone but still living
Life goes on without a beating heart
Free like a vision
That the mind of only you can see
Freer than a raindrop
Falling from the sky
Freer than a smile in a baby's sleepin' eyes
I'm free like a river
Flowin' freely to infinity
I'm free to be sure of what
I am and who I need not be
I'm much freer - like the meaning of the word free that
crazy man defines
Free - free like the vision that
The mind of only you are ever gonna see
Free like the river my life
Goes on and on through infinity - Come Let Me Make Your Love Come DownVer letra 5:20
[X]There's a girl in my life about 4'10"letra de Come Let Me Make Your Love Come Down
She's the one who brings me morning joy
And brings me joy when my day ends
She says my life will never have no problems
That her love cannot fix
And she proves her worth true
Every time she goes into her love bag of tricks
She's got everything I want
Everything I need
And if she ain't got it
She knows how to find the remedy
And she tells me
Come let me make your love come down
[Repeat 7 times]
She says you'll never worry in your life
As long as you come and let me
Make your love come down
I call her Miss Satisfaction
Cause she keeps me satisfied
She gets my automatic smile
When she whispers Steveland, I love you, I love you,
I love you
Such a lovely world is my life
Since that girl has come inside
And everyday that I live
I'm gonna do my best to keep her satisfied
Our love will never have no problem
That the both of us can't fix
Cause like glue to a stamp
Like gum on a shoe
She and I are going to stick
She's got everything I want
Everything I need
And if she ain't got it
She knows how to find the remedy
And she tells me
Come let me make your love come down
