the temptations - just my imagination

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh ohhhhhhhh ooohhhhhhhhh.
Each day through my window I watch her as she passes by,
I say to myself you're such a lucky guy,
To have a girl like her,
Is truly a dream come true,
Out of all the fellas in the world,
She belongs to me.

But it was just my imagination
Running away with me,
It was just my imagination
Running away with me.

ohh,ho,ho,hooooo

(Soon) soon we'll be married,
And raise a family, (oh yeah)
A cosy little home out in the country,
With 2 children, maybe 3.
I tell you I can give you all who has it all
This couldn't be a dream for too real it all seems.

But it was just my imagination,once again
Running away with me,
Tell you It was just my imagination
Running away with me.

Every night on my knees I pray,
Dear Lord, hear my plead,
Don't ever let another take her love from me,
Or I will surely die,
Her Love is heavenly
When her arms enfold me,
I hear a tender rhapsody,
But in reality
She doesn't even notice me

Just my imagination once again,
Running away with me, ohhhh,
Tell me It was just my imagination
Running away with me.

the temptations - beauty is only skin deep

So in love, sad as could be
'Cause a pretty face got the best of me.
Suddenly, you came into my life
And gave it meaning and pure delight.
Now, good looks, I've learned to do without.
'Cause now I know it's love that really counts.

'Cause I know that...
(Beauty's only skin deep, yeah, yeah, yeah.)
I know that...
Beauty's only skin deep, yes indeed.

Now you speak your words warm and sincere.
And let's me know that your love is near.
A pretty face you may not possess
But what I like about you is your tenderness.
A pretty face maybe some guys taste
But I'll take lovin' in it's place.

'Cause I know that...
(Beauty's only skin deep, yeah, yeah, yeah.)
And you know that...
Beauty's only skin deep, oh baby, oh yeah.
(Oh yeah, Oh yeah)

(Beauty's only skin deep, yeah, yeah, yeah.)
Ooo
(Beauty's only skin deep, oh yeah.)
Yes it is.

My friends ask, what do I see in you
But it goes deeper than the eye can view.
You have a pleasin' personality
And that's an ever lovin' rare quality.
Now show me a girl, a girl that's fine
And I'll choose the one with true lovin' every time.

I know that...
(Beauty's only skin deep, yeah, yeah, yeah)
And I believe that...
Beau- know that beauty's only skin deep.

So if you're lookin' for a lover. (Oh yeah)
Don't judge a book by it's cover. (Oh yeah)
She may be fine on the outside (Oh yeah)
But so untrue on the inside. (Oh yeah)
Ooo

the temptations - papa was a rolling stone

It was the third of September; that day I'll always remember,
'cause that was the day that my daddy died.
I never got a chance to see him;
never heard nothin' but bad things about him.
Mama I'm depending on you to tell me the truth.
(Spoken)
Mama just looked at him and said, "Son,
(Sung)
Papa was a rollin' stone.
Wherever he laid his hat was his home.
And when his died,
All he left us was alone."
Verse 2
Hey, mama, I heard Papa call himself a jack of all trades.
Tell me, is that what sent Papa to an early grave?
Folks say Papa would beg, borrow or steal to pay his bills.
Hey, Mama, folks say Papa was never much on thinkin';
Spend most of his time chasin' women and drinkin'!
Mama, I'm depending on you to tell me the truth.
(Spoken)
Mama just hung her head and said, "Son,
(To Chorus)

the temptations - night and day

Like the beat, beat, beat, Of the tom-tom; When the jungle shadows fall, Like the tick, tick, tock Of the stately clock, As it stands against the wall, Like the drip, drip, drip, Of the raindrops, When the summer show'r is through; So a voice within me Keeps repeating, You, you, you -- Night and day You are the one, Only you Beneath the moon And under the sun. Whether near to me or far, It's no
matter, Darling, where you are I think of you Night and
day. Day and night Why is it so, That this longing for you
follows Where-ever I go? In the roaring traffic's boom, In the silence of my lonely room, I think of you, Night and day. Night and day Under the hide of me There's an Oh, such a hungry yearning, Burning inside of me. And its torment won't be through Til you let me spend my life Making love to you, Day and night, Night and day
