Distant Lover

Ooh-hoo
Hey, hey, hey

Distant lover, lover (lover, lover, lover)
Ooh-hoo (Ooh-hoo) so many miles away
Ooh-hoo, heaven knows, heaven knows that I long for you
Every night, every night
And sometimes again through the day

Ooh, distant lover, ooh, hoo-hoo, lover (lover, lover, lover)
You should think about me
Say a prayer for me
Mmm please, please baby
Think about me sometime
Think about me here, here in misery
Misery

As I reminisce, oh baby, through our joyful summer together
The promises we made
Of a daily letter
Then, all of the sudden
Everything seemed to explode, blow
Now I gaze out my window
Sugar, down that lonesome road

Distant lover (lover, lover, lover)
Sugar, how can you treat my heart
So mean and cruel
Didn't you know, sugar
That every moment that I spent with you
I, I treasured it like it was a precious jewel
Say you love me, say you love me, say you love me
Lord have mercy

If ever there was anyone who was music to my ears
It was Marvin Gaye
And I'd just like to thank all who made it possible
For me to bring you this tribute
I love you Marvin, I sure do

Oh baby, oh baby
I know you know, know you know
Please oh, come back, baby (Come back, baby)
Oh, somethin' I wanna say
When you left
You took all of me with you

My lord I wonder
Do you wanna hear me scream and pleading
Please, please
Oh, please baby
Oh baby
I want you to just come back baby
Come back baby, come back baby
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Distant lover (You got me crying girl, you got me crying, baby)
How, how, how, can you treat my heart
So mean, so cruel when you know I do love you
I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do
Oh, mmm

They say that absence makes the heart grow fonder
But I can't take it any longer, ahh, haaa
Come back, baby (Come back, baby)
Come back, baby
I'll treat you better than better
Sweeter than sweeter

I'll be good to you, baby
Whatever mistakes is in the past
I got lovin' that will last, oh yeah, come back baby
Mmm, mmm, mmm
Oh, I can't take it, baby
I'm so sorry, baby
Hear me playing baby, On my knees please, please

Distant lover

I, I, I, I, I need you baby
Oh, oh, my own
I'll make it better this time, baby
Give me one more chance
You know I need another chance now, baby
I ain't too proud to beg
Don't you hear me begging, baby

Mmm, mmm
Hey
Ooh, ooh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Distant lover
