Natalie Cole - Your Lonely Heart Lyrics

Natalie Cole - Your Lonely Heart Video

(Written by Natalie Cole)
 
Here you are right by my side
 
Words cannot express how I feel
 
Being this close to you
 
Heaven seems much nearer in your eyes
 
I wish that I could touch your lonely heart
 
I can see your face and I start to trembling all inside
 
Don't know why but it's true
 
We're so close and yet so far away
 
Wish that I could touch your lonely heart
 
Open up and let my light inside
 
I just wanna be your friend
 
Let's forget about the tears we've cried
 
Darling I just wanna love you
 
Wish that I could touch your lonely heart
 
Open up and let my light inside
 
I just wanna be your friend
 
Let's forget about our foolish pride
 
Darling I just wanna love you
 
Wish that I could touch your lonely heart
 
Hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo
 
Here we are together now
 
Wanting you but don't know how
 
Knowing I care for you
 
Even if we have to start all over again
 
Wish that I could touch your lonely heart
 
Open up and let my light inside
 
I just wanna be your friend
 
Let's forget about the tears we've cried
 
Darling I just wanna love you
 
Wish that I could touch your lonely heart
 
Open up and let my light inside
 
I just wanna be your friend
 
Let's forget about our foolish pride
 
Darling I just wanna love you
 
Wish that I could touch your lonely heart
 
Open up and let my light inside
 
I just wanna be your friend
 
Let's forget about the tears we've cried
 
Darling I just wanna love you
 
Wish that I could touch your lonely heart
 
(Open up and let my light inside) Oh----
 
(I just wanna be your friend) I just wanna be your friend
 
(Let's forget about the tears we cried)
 
Ooh, hoo my darling I just wanna love you
 
Wish that I could touch your lonely heart
 
(Open up and let my light inside) Open up, let my light inside
 
(I just wanna be your friend) I just wanna be your friend
 
(Let's forget about our foolish pride) Ooh, hoo my darling I just wanna love you
 
Wish that I could touch your lonely heart...

And tenderly, oh, yeah, from sunrise to sunset
 
All through the day, I've been waiting for your return

Natalie Cole - Good To Be Back Lyrics

Natalie Cole - Good To Be Back Video

Written by Pam Reswick/Steve Werfel
 
Background Vocals: Natalie Cole
 
Let me look at you, just look at you
 
You're a sight for sore eyes, yes you are
 
If you knew how many nights I spent holding you so tight
 
Then I'd wake up and we're still apart
 
Now you're really near and I'm really here
 
And I can wrap my arms around you, yes I can
 
This is just like I remember, no I think its even better
 
Maybe even more than I can stand
 
Baby, its good to be back, so good to be back
 
Baby, its good to be back in your arms again
 
Baby, its good to be back, so good to be back
 
Honey, its good to be back with you, oh yeah
 
Well its not the first time we've been apart
 
But as far as I'm concerned its the last
 
I don't care what we have to do to stay together from now on
 
But those days away from you are past
 
'Cause when I go through the day and I haven't seen your face
 
Seems like nothing that I do feels right
 
You're the one I wanna see when I wake up every day
 
You're the one I wanna kiss goodnight
 
Baby, its good to be back, so good to be back
 
Baby, its good to be back in your arms again (ooh)
 
Baby, its good to be back, so good to be back
 
Honey, its good to be back with you
 
So good, so good, so good, so good, so good with you, baby
 
So good with you
 
Why don't you start me up with just one kiss
 
That's just one of the things I've missed
 
You better kiss me once again 'til it finally settles in
 
Well, I think I could get used to this
 
Baby, its good to be back, so good, so good to be back, real good
 
Baby, its good to be back in your arms again, I just got to say it
 
Good to be back, so good to be back
 
Honey, its good to be back with you
 
Baby, its good to be back, feels mighty good to be back
 
Baby, its good to be back with you
 
Baby, its good to be back, so good, so good to be back
 
Aw honey, honey its good to be back with you
 
And its so good to be back, aw sing it girls
 
Yeah, good to be back, I like the way you sang
 
Baby, its good to be back in you're arms again
 
Sang, sang, sang, sang
 
And it's so good to be back...

Natalie Cole - I'm Catching Hell Lyrics

Natalie Cole - I'm Catching Hell Video

Tonight, I, I just want to talk to the ladies, oh fellows your cool but girls
 
If you've got a good man, you'd better keep him,
 
Oh I know you're saying right now, what does she know
 
Who is she to tell me about my situation, well, I don't know your situation
 
But whatever it is, you should try to stay together
 
You know that big argument that you had the other night, remember
 
Well, today its not nothing, just don't let him leave you honey
 
Cause then you'll find out that it wasn't those real big things you loved about
Him
 
It was the real small things, go on and laugh but its true
 
You know, things that you've seen a thousand times around the house
 
But never paid any attention to, like helping with the groceries
 
And helping in the yard and painting and repairing and huh, paying the bills
 
But you know now, all I have is memories and regrets
 
I could have given our love a chance to grow but no
 
I had to challenge it and be heard (oh), let me tell you something
 
That female liberation stuff, I don't know, sometimes I don't think its worth it
 
And I'm really feeling, feeling kind of bad yaul, I'm catching hell living here
Alone
 
Hmm, I never realized, oh Lord, that you mean so much to me
 
I'm catching hell living here alone, I want you to come back baby
 
Come back cause here's where you belong, oh yeah
 
If I could replay, if I could replay that whole scene again, oh well
 
You know that I would never, never say it again, that our love, our love is at
Its end
 
And oh, you know that I would kind of ease on back, yes I would
 
And let confusion pass on by, I took a fools'way out, oh yeah
 
Without one good reason why, I'm catching hell, catching hell
 
Lord I'm living, living, living here alone, Alone, lone, I didn't believe it
Could be
 
You know all the pressure on me, all the time, oh, I'm catching hell, well, well
 
Living here alone, lone, lone, lone, lone, lone, lone, to tell you the truth
 
To tell you the truth I'm going out of my mind---, yeah, oh do you hear me
Tonight
 
I don't have too (this is my story) much more to say except
 
Somebody (hey, this is my song) told me that if you've got something
 
That's good to you And you don't use it (sad, sad) you might lose it (sad, song)
 
(Song, so sad) So girls hold on to your good thing (Oh), (you gotta hold on a
Little bit now)
 
And don't let go, oh---do you hear me tonight, It's so sad living alone
 
Living alone (Hmm), hold on to your good thing, hold on, (well, well) oh yeah
 
Yeah, yeah, yeah---oh, oh, oh, Lordy, Lordy do you know what its like
 
Catching hell, (somebody turn up the microphone, oh---), Oh, no, no, no, no,
No, no

Natalie Cole - Snowfall On The Sahara Lyrics

Natalie Cole - Snowfall On The Sahara Video

Your love, like wine. Tasting sweeter to me every day
Your kiss, devine. And it melts the cold inside away
All of my life, I've been waiting for a love like this
And now, that you're here romance is just a second away.
It's gonna stay
 
'Til the snow falls on the Sahara, 'Til the sun freezes over, 'Til the
Mojave red turns into blue
'Til my lungs get tired of breathing, and my heart stops it's beating,
Then I'll stop loving you.
 
And in the dark, when there's no one calling out your name.
Well I'll hold you so tight, and I'll whisper to you once again, and again
 
'Til the snow falls on the Sahara, 'Til the sun freezes over,
'Til the Mojave red turns into blue.
When the music's no longer playing and the faithless start praying,
I'll stop loving you.
 
When the snow falls on the Sahara (uh huh), 'Til the sun freezes over,
'Til the Mojave red turns into blue (That's a long Time) When my lungs
Get tired of breathing (oh) and my heart stops it's beating
 
I'll stop loving you.
I don't want to waste a single heartbeat
And sometimes my words get in the way
But I hear your love just fine. Just Fine
And it's gonna take a long time
 
'Til the snow falls on the Sahara, 'Til the sun freezes over
'Til the Mojave red turns into blue (That's a long time)
When the music's no longer playing, and the faithless start praying
I'll stop loving you, oh. uh huh uh huh (When the snow falls on the
Sahara, and the sun freezes over, when the Mojave red turns into blue)
I'll be loving you, baby. (When my lungs get tired of breathing and my
Heart stops it's beating) I'll stop loving you.
