The Temptations

Manhattan · Psycho Killer

You've really got a hold on me

She's alright
I don't like you
But I love you
Seems that I'm always
Thinking of you
Oh, you treat me badly
I love you madly
You really got a hold on me
You really got a hold on me, baby

I don't want you,
But I need you
Don't want to kiss you
But I need you
Oh, you do me wrong now
My love is strong now
You really got a hold on me
You really got a hold on me, baby

I love you and all I want you to do
Is just hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me
Tighter

I want to leave you
Don't want to stay here
Don't want to spend
Another day here
Oh, I want to split now
I can quit now
You really got a hold on me
You really got a hold on me, baby

I love you and all I want you to do
Is just hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me

You really got a hold on me
You really got a hold on me

Born to love you

Eddie:
Girl, as you walk by... I breathe a sigh.
And deep inside I knew it had to be.
This little girl is mine.
And for a little while I heard a strange rhapsody.
Hmmm

So lovely and so fair. (Fair)
I knew right then and there. (There)
That you were made for me.
And it wasn't hard to see.
I guess I was born to love you. (Born to love you)
Born to love you. (Born to love you)
Hmmm (Born to love you)

(Honey I, I was born to love you. Give my love to no one but you.)

David:
Here stands a man, with his future in your hands.
Don't let go. (Don't let go)
Don't let go. (Don't let go)
Baby, don't let her go. (Don't let go)
Please (Don't let go)

Eddie:
You better come on and take my hand.
'Cause I don't understand, this crazy feeling in my soul.
But I know that I would rather die, then let this feeling go.

Now girl can't you see (See)
That this was meant to be. (Be)
It's funny but it's true.
I guess I was just born to love you. (Born to love you)

David:
Darling... (Born to love you)
Darling I... (Born to love you)
I was born... (Born to love you)
Born to love only you. (Born to love you)

Why don't you believe... (Born to love you)
Believe what I tell you, baby (Born to love you)
I was born to love only you. (Born to love you)
(Born to love you)

Eddie:
Darling... (Born to love you)
I... (Born to love you)
Oh, our love is true. (Born to love you)

With these hands

With these hands, I will cling to you
I'm yours forever and a day.
With these hands, I will bring to you
A tender love as warm as May

With this heart I will sing to you
Long after stars have lost their glow
And with these hands, I'll provide for you
Should there be a stormy sea

I'll turn the tide for you
And I'll never
No, I'll never let you go....

Message from a Black Man

Melvin: Yes, my skin is black,
But that's no reason to hold me back
Eddie: Why don't you think about it,
Think about it, think about it, think about it,
Think about it...
I have wants and desires,
Just like you
So move on the side
'Cause I'm comin' through, oh!

Temptations: No matter how hard you try
You can't stop me now
Eddie and Temptations: No matter how hard you try
You can't stop me now, oooh...

Melvin: Yes, your skin is white...
Does that make you right?
Eddie: Why don't you think about it,
Think about it, think about it, think about it,
Think about it...
This is a message
A message to y'all,
Together we stand,
Divided we fall, oh!

Dennis: Black is a color
Just like white,
Tell me how can a color determine whether
You're wrong or right,
We all have our faults...
Yes we do

Eddie: So look in your mirror
Temptations: Look in the mirror
Eddie: What do you see?
Temptations: What do you see?
Eddie: Two eyes,
Temptations: Two eyes,
Eddie: A nose, and a mouth just like me, oh!

Eddie: Your eyes are open
But you refuse to see,
The laws of society
Were made for both you and me,
Because of my color,
I struggle to be free
Sticks and stones,
May break my bones
But in the end,
You're gonna' see my friend, oh!

Temptations: No matter how hard you try
You can't stop me now
(chorus repeated several times through music, or "the bridge")

(after a few minutes, above chorus is repeated
as song nears end, and then...)

Temptations: Say it loud!
No matter how hard you try
You can't stop me now

Temptations: Say it loud!
No matter how hard you try
You can't stop me now

Temptations: Say it!
No matter how hard you try
You can't stop me now

Temptations: Say it loud!
No matter how hard you try
You can't stop me now

Temptations: Say it loud!
Dennis: I'm black and I'm proud!
Temptations: No matter how hard you try
You can't stop me now

Temptations: Say it loud!
Dennis: I'm black and I'm proud!
Temptations: No matter how hard you try
You can't stop me now

(You're my) Dream come true
Ain't too proud to beg
Ball of confusion (that's what the world is today)
Born to love you
Cloud 9
Farewell my love
Girl (why you wanna make me blue)
I can't get next to you
I Want A Love I Can See
I wish it would rain
I'm Ready For Love
Isn't she pretty
I've been good to you
Just my imagination
Masterpiece
Message from a Black Man
My girl
Papa was a rollin' stone
Paradise
Psychedelic shack
Shakey ground
The further you look, the less you see
The Impossible Dream
The way you do the things you do
Treat her like a lady
With these hands
You're my everything
You've really got a hold on me
