Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Love me with all your might, let love come naturally
Problems we may have, but everybody does
Memories we cherish are the present and what was
Hold me, baby, that's all you have to do, yeah
Kiss me, baby, and feel the love come through, now
Show me, baby, just how much you care
Oh, I need you darling, oh yeah
When I kiss your lips, I feel this warmth inside
The love I have for you, I know it just won't hide
Listen, baby, tell me are you really sure?
'Cause if I′m the one you want, I have love to last for evermore
Hold me, baby, that′s all you have to do, yeah
Kiss me, baby, and feel the love come through, now
Show me, baby, just how much you care

@pussycowgirl5767
Yes and it kind of reminds me of Marvin Gaye too
@kirtlou
Weldon's piano & Don Blackman's voice - PERFECTION A real good feel record, just genius.
@nycnycTNC
No, Don Blackman did everything song write, vocal, playing the piano too. Weldon just put his name on credit.
@lexmd221
Beautiful tune, i had the pleasure of playing this live with the genius Don Blackman who actually wrote it for Irvine. Precious memories!
@paulokeefe2557
I saw Weldon in concert in a jazz club only a few years before he was taken from us. Place was a quarter full but that didn't matter, I loved the performance. Spoke to him afterwards in a booth about his extensive career. A wonderfully warm and gracious man. We love you Weldon.

Still loving it so much in 2021. Awesome track💯😍
