I Love You (Call Me)
Diana Ross · Everything Is Everything [1970]
I love you, I love you
I love you too
Baby will you call me
The moment you get there
I love you, I love you
And I love you too
Baby will you call me
The moment you get there
My tears, my dearest of all, darling
I know, I know, I know
I know we've got to part
Baby, baby, baby, it really doesn't hurt me that bad
Because you're taking me with you and
I'm keeping you right here in my arms
It's all because I love you
Call me, call me the hour
Call me the minute, the second you get there
I love you too
Baby will you call me
The moment you get there
I love you, I love you
And I love you too
Baby will you call me
The moment you get there
My tears, my dearest of all, darling
I know, I know, I know
I know we've got to part
Baby, baby, baby, it really doesn't hurt me that bad
Because you're taking me with you and
I'm keeping you right here in my arms
It's all because I love you
Call me, call me the hour
Call me the minute, the second you get there
