I Am Love Pt I-II
Jackson 5 · Other Songs - Jackson 5
As you go from day to day
The hands of love will catch you
When you fall along the way
My arms will hold and be with you
Your whole life through
('Cause I am love)
And I'm in love with you
I find myself in wonder
Of why I've been misued
When love brings understanding
How can it be confused
(War and poverty wasn't meant to be)
Hate is driving me away
('Cause I am love)
And I'd love to stay
(Come back lover, come back, this is where you belong)
(Come back lover, come back, this is where you belong)
(Come back lover, come back, this is where you belong)
(Come back lover, come back, this is where you belong)
Come back lover, come back, this is where you belong, oh yeah
Come on back, oh yeah, please this is where you belong, hey, hey
(I am love)
(Sprinkle myself around you)
(I am love)
(Shower my warmth upon you)
I'm the answer to the question
My key unlocks your heart
I'm your friend and your lover
Your sister and your brother
Let me in your mind (Let's get together)
You're running out of time (Let's get together)
Your wish is my command (Let's get together)
People take my hand (Let's get together)
(Love, love, love)
(Love, love, love)
(Let's get together, let's get together)
(I am love)
(Sprinkle myself around you)
(I am love)
(Shower my warmth around you)
