ANITA BAKER lyrics - Soul Inspiration

(Terry Britten & Graham Lyle)



If I lost you now

It would take my heart from me

I can't imagine life without you

The love of you, baby



Lately I confess

I've been short on tenderness

Too much time on work, I guess

Not enough on you



Now if I forgot to tell you I love you

I really got no excuse, no excuse



Because you're beautiful, my one desire

You're my soul's inspiration

And if I didn't say it, well I do now

You're my sweet inspiration - baby, baby



If I'm feelin' low

I've only got myself to blame

'cause I can always share the load

When I'm near you - uh, huh



You can rescue me, baby

You bring out the best in me

I'm the girl I want to be

When I'm near you, huh



I may need reminding to say I love you

But heaven know that I do, yes I do



Because you're beautiful, my one desire

You're my soul's inspiration

And if I didn't say it, well I do now

You're my sweet inspiration - baby, baby



From the day I met you, baby

Yes, I knew instinctively

Whatever our future

Together we were gonna be, baby



Huh, my baby

Nothin', nothin's sweeter to me than you, baby

You, baby

Yes sir I love you, baby



Hey-now, I love you baby

Hey, ahh yahh
