commodores - nightshift

Marvin, he was a friend of mine
And he could sing a song
His heart in every line
Marvin sang of the joy and pain
He opened up our minds
And i still can hear him say
Aw talk to me so you can see
What's going on
Say you will sing your songs
Forevermore (evermore)

Gonna be some sweet sounds
Coming down on the nightshift
I bet you're singing proud
Oh i bet you'll pull a crowd
Gonna be a long night
It's gonna be all right
On the nightshift
Oh you found another home
I know you're not alone
On the nightshift

We'll be there
At your side
Oh say you will sing
Your songs forevermore (evermore)

Oh i bet you'll pull a crowd
Gonna be a long night

commodores - angels we have heard on high

Angels we have on heard high
Sweetly singing ore the plains
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains

Gloria, in excelsis Deo
Gloria, in excelsis Deo

Come to Bethlehem and see
Christ whose birth the angels sing
Come adore on bended knee
Christ the Lord the newborn King

Gloria, in excelsis Deo
Gloria, in excelsis Deo

See Him in a manger laid
Whom the choirs of angels praise;
Mary, Joseph, lend your aid
While our hearts in love we raise

Gloria, in excelsis Deo
Gloria, in excelsis Deo

Gloria, in excelsis Deo

commodores - still

Lady
Morning's just a moment away
And I'm without you once again
You laughed at me
You said you never needed me
I wonder if you need me now

We played the games that people play
We made our mistakes along the way
Somehow I know deep in my heart
You needed me
'Cause I needed you so desperately
We were too blind to see
But then most of all
I do love you
Still

Those memories
Time I'm sure we'll never forget
Those feelings we can't put at side
For what we had
Sometimes I try to understand
But it's so heavy on my mind

So many dreams that flew away
So many words we didn't say
Two people lost in a storm
Where did we go?
Where'd we go?

We lost what we both had found
You know we let each other down
But then most of all
I do love you
Still

We played the games that people play
We made our mistakes along the way
Somehow I know deep in my heart
You needed me
'Cause I needed you so desperately!
We were too blind to see
But then most of all
I do love you
Still

commodores - lady

Lady - you bring me up when Im down,
Maybe youre gonna change my life around.

You came to me when I was lonely and no one cared.
You made me see that I was only just runnin scared.
I saw your face and somethin told me you were the one.
You smiled at me and now I see: My lifes begun.

Lady - you brought me in from out the rain,
Maybe me life will never be the same.

Once I was filled with desperation - a solitary man
You gave me hope and inspiration like only true love can.
Now I believe in what youre sayin - Im ten feet tall.
This love dont need no explainin - weve got it all.

Lady - you bring me up when Im down, ...
Lady - you bring me up when Im down, ...
Lady - you bring me up when Im down, ...

commodores - stuck on you

Stuck on you
(I've) Got this feeling down deep in my soul that I just can't lose
Gess I'm on my way
Needed a friend
And the way I feel now I guess I'll be with you till the end
Guess I'm on my way
I'm glad you stay!

Stuck on you
Been a fool to long I guess it's time for me to come on home
Guess I'm on my way
So hard to see
That a woman like you could wait around for a man like me
Guess I'm on my way
I'm glad you stay

I'm leaving on that midnight train tomorrow
And I know just where I'm goin
Packed up my troubles and I thrown them all away
Cause this time little darling
I'm coming home to stay

Stuck on you
I've got this feelin' down deep in my soul that I just can't lose
Guess I'm on my way
Needed a friend
And the way I feel now I guess I'll be with you 'till the end
Guess I'm on my way
Mighty glad you stayed

Sail On

Sail on down the line, 'bout
A half a mile or so, and
I don't really wanna know
Where you're goin'
Maybe once or twice, you see
Time after time I tried, I tried to
Hold on to what we got, but
Now you're goin'

And I don't mind
'Bout the things you're gonna say Lord
I gave all my money, and my time
I know, I know it's ashame
But I'm giving you back your name

Guess I'll be on my way
I won't be back to say
I guess I'll move along
I'm looking for a good time (time)

Sail on down the line, ain't it
Funny how the time can go, all my
Friends say they told me so, but it
It doesn't matter
It was plain to see that a
Small town girl like me, just
Wasn't your cup of tea, I was
Wishful thinkin'

I gave you my heart
And I tried to make you happy
And you gave me nothing in return
You know it ain't so hard to say
Would you please just go away, hey hey

I've thrown away the blues
I'm tired of being used
I want everyone to know
I'm looking for a good time
Good time

Sail on (sail on), honey (honey, hey)
Good times have never felt so good
Sail on (sail on, oh), honey (honey, honey, honey)
Good times have never felt so good (never never never never)
Sail on (never never never), sugar (so good)
Good times have never felt so good
Sail on (ohh oh), honey (honey)
Good times never felt so good (oh oh)

commodores - thank you

I?ve been thinking lately
?bout the time you spend with me
and I?ve been wondering
if you really knew

Everybody needs someone
To help them through the maze
Did you realize my someone?s you?

I?ve been down and out and you?ve been there
I?ve been less than kind sometimes I know
I don?t have to see your face to know you care
And you?ve been a friend to me

Thank you, for being mine forever, girl
For being by my side
You know I love you
And need you too... Thank you

Sometimes when it?s late at night
And everything is cold
I think about you and I feel warm inside
Maybe I?ve neglected you
And so it's time you told
You have helped me make it through my life

Let me say the words that you should hear
Let me say them till I made it clear
You?re my lady
I believed that love is more than just a kiss
And you have shown me this

Thank you, for being mine forever, girl
For being by my side
You know I love you
And need you too... Thank you

Let me say the words that you should hear
And let me say them till I made it clear
I believed that love is more than just a kiss
And you have shown me this

Thank you, for being here with me
I wanna thank you
For being by my side
You know I love you
And need you too... Thank you ( 4X )

commodores - united in love

It isn't always easy
We've been through a few hard times
But when we stick together
There's no mountain we can't climb

With all that we've been through
And everything we've done
Nothing comes between us ? we stand as one

United in love ? there's nothing we can't rise above
United in love ? whatever happens to us
United in love ? we'll always be
United in love ? so united

And if you reach your hand out
But your dreams just seem too far
Stand upon my shoulders
And you can touch that star

The road that we are on
May lead into the night
But we will walk together into the light

United in love ? there's nothing we can't rise above
United in love ? whatever happens to us
United in love ? we'll always be
United in love ? so united

As sure as day follows night
No matter who is wrong or right
No matter what we do or say
We always come away

United in love ? there's nothing we can't rise above
United in love ? whatever happens to us
United in love ? we'll always be
United in love ? so united

And if we stand by each other
Always respect one another
There's nothin' we can't do, no
There's nothin' we, we won't get through
No, no, no, no, we're so united

commodores - o come all ye faithful

O come, all ye faithful, joyful and triumphant,
Come ye, O come ye, to Bethlehem.
Come and behold Him, born the King of angels;

Refrain

O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him,
Christ the Lord.

True God of true God, Light from Light Eternal,
Lo, he shuns not the Virgin's womb;
Son of the Father, begotten, not created;

Refrain

Sing, choirs of angels, sing in exultation;
Sing, all ye citizens of heaven above!
Glory to God, all glory in the highest;

Refrain

See how the shepherds, summoned to His cradle,
Leaving their flocks, draw nigh to gaze;
We too will thither bend our joyful footsteps;

Refrain

Child, for us sinners poor and in the manger,
We would embrace Thee, with love and awe;
Who would not love Thee, loving us so dearly?

Refrain

Yea, Lord, we greet Thee, born this happy morning;
Jesus, to Thee be glory given;
Word of the Father, now in flesh appearing.

Refrain
