Greatest Love Of All Lyrics – George Benson

I believe the children are our future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be
Everybody is searching for a hero
People need someone to look up to
I never found anyone to fulfill my needs
A lonely place to be
So I learned to depend on me

[Chorus:]
I decided long ago, never to walk in anyone's shadows
If I fail, if I succeed
At least I live as I believe
No matter what they take from me
They can't take away my dignity
Because the greatest love of all
Is happening to me
I found the greatest love of all
Inside of me
The greatest love of all
Is easy to achieve
Learning to love yourself
It is the greatest love of all

I believe the children are our future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be

[Chorus]

And if by chance, that special place
That you've been dreaming of
Leads you to a lonely place
Find your strength in love

20/20 Lyrics – George Benson

When I think of all I put you through
Always taking you for granted
I never saw it from your point of view
Blinded by the double standard

You were tryin' to tell me all along
Something in the love was missing
You said "It's not too late to get it back"
But I just wasn't listening

If I knew back then what I know now
If I understood the what , when , why and how
Now it's clear to me
What I should have done
But hindsight is 20/20 vision

Now I see it in a different light
I've been losin' you in stages
Give us one more chance
I'll get it right
Girl , you're gonna see some changes

If I knew back then what I know now
If i understood the what , when , why and how
Now it's clear to me
What I should have done
But hindsight is 20/20 vision

Takin' time to catch up on some history
Tryin' to figure out what went wrong
with you and me
And it doesn't really matter
what's been before
But I know there's no future
with you walkin' out that door

Never Give Up On A Good Thing Lyrics – George Benson

Never give up on a good thing
Remember what makes you happy (Whoa, whoa)
Never give up on a good thing
If love is what you got, you've got a lot

Money's tight, he's workin' every night
It ain't easy to keep the flame alive
And when he finally comes home to ya
He's just too tired to do the things you want to

You can't help but wonder to yourself
How would it be with someone else
Just keep in mind, every storm ends in time
Love is forever, stay together

(Stay together) When you got something real
(Love forever) That you may never feel again

Never give up on a good thing
Remember what makes you happy (Whoa, whoa)
Never give up on a good thing
If love is what you got, you've got a lot

Now you're the man, you've got to understand
She don't mean to make a scene
Like you, she feels all the weight you're under
And when she breaks, is it any wonder

I know sometimes it crosses your mind
To get on out and stay hard to find
Before you try, you'd better look in her eyes
Love is forever, stay together

(Stay together) You've got something real
(Love forever) That you may never feel again
(You've got a lot)

(Stay together)
(Love forever)
You've got something real
That you may never feel again

Never give up on a good thing
Remember what makes you happy (Oh, oh)
Never give up on a good thing
If love is what you got, you've got a lot

Don't give up your good thing
Don't give it, oh, don't, oh, oh
Don't give up your good thing
Please don't, oh, don't
Don't live it up, don't give it up

Never give up on a good thing
Remember what makes you happy (Oh, oh)
Never give up on a good thing
If love is what you got, you've got a lot

Never give up on a good thing (Oh, he's all you need)
Remember what makes you happy (Whoa, whoa)
Never give up on a good thing
If love is what you got, you've got a lot

Never give up on a good thing (Oh, he's all you need)
Remember what makes you happy (Whoa, oh)
Never give up on a good thing

Turn Your Love Around Lyrics – George Benson

You've got the love
You've got the power
But you just don't understand
Girl, you've been charging by the hour
For your love

I'm tryin' to show how much I love you
Still believe in romance
You're taking way too many chances
With my love

I remember
When you used to be
The talk of the town
All you get is lonely

Turn your love around
Don't you turn me down
I can show you how
Turn your love around

Without the woman I can make it
But I need the girl to stay
Oh, don't you let the lady take it
All away
When the woman need's
A taste of yesterday
But you stay at home
All they get is lonely

Turn your love around
Don't you turn me down
I can show you how
Turn your love around

Oh, girl you know me
I'm alone until you show me
That you're still in love with me
We're gonna make it
You're gonna take it
Back where we belong

Turn your love around
Don't you turn me down
I can show you how
Turn your love around
(Turn your love around)

Turn your love around
This time the girl became a woman
Don't you turn me down
Every woman needs a man
I can show you how
I love the girl
I love the woman
Turn your love around
(Turn your love around)

Turn your love around
This time the girl became a woman
Don't you turn me down
Every woman needs a man
I can show you how
I love the girl
I love the woman
Turn your love around
(Turn your love around)

Turn your love around
This time the girl became a woman
Don't you turn me down
Every woman needs a man
I can show you how

On Broadway Lyrics – George Benson

They say the neon lights are bright on broadway
They say there's always magic in the air
But when you're walkin' down that street
And you ain't had enough to eat
The glitter rubs right off and you're nowhere

They say the women treat you fine on Broadway
But looking at them just gives me the blues
'Cause how ya gonna make some time
When all you got is one thin dime
And one thin dime won't even shine your shoes

They say that I won't last too long on Broadway
I'll catch a Greyhound bus for home, they all say
But they're dead wrong, I know they are
'Cause I can play this here guitar
And I won't quit till I'm a star on Broadway

I won't quit till I'm a star on Broadway

"Givin' It Up" (2006)

Mornin' Lyrics – George Benson

Mornin', Mr. Golden Gate
I should walk, but I can't wait
I can't wait to set it straight
I was shakin' but now I am
Makin' it fine
Here in my mind

My heart will soar
With love that's rare and real
My smiling face will feel every cloud
Then higher still
Beyond the blue until
I know I can
Like any man
Reach out my hand
And touch the face of God

'Scuse me if I sing
My heart has found its wings
Searchin' high and low
And now at last I know

Mornin', Mr. Radio
Mornin', little Cheerios
Mornin', sister Oriole
Did I tell you everything is fine
Woo, in my mind?

So, won't you get up, Oriole?
So, won't you get up, Cheerios?
Wake up, Mr. Radio
It's fine
Here in my mind

Singin' about mornin', little radio
Mornin', little Cheerios
Wake up, Mr. Radio
Need I tell you everything?
Right here is just doing fine

God Bless The Child Lyrics – George Benson

Them that's god shall get
Them that's not shall lose
So the bible says
And it still is news

Momma may have
Poppa may have
But God bless the child
That's got his own
That's got his own

Yeah, the strong gets more
While the weak ones fade
Empty pockets don't
Ever make the grade

Momma may have
Poppa may have
But God bless the child

That's got his own
That's got his own

Money, you've got lots of friends
Crowdin' round the door
When it's gone and
Spendin' ends
They don't come no more

Rich realations give
A crust of bread and such
You can help yourself
But don't take too much

Momma may have
Poppa may have
But God bless the child
That's got his own
That's got his own

Summer Breeze Lyrics – George Benson

See the curtains hanging in the window
In the evening on a Friday night
A little light shining through the window
Let me know everything is alright, sing this song

Summer breeze makes me feel fine
Blowin' through the jasmine in my mind
Hear me sing, summer breeze makes me feel fine
Blowin' through the jasmine in my mind

See the paper lying on the sidewalk
A little music from the house next door
So I walk on up to the doorstep
Through the screen and across the floor

Summer breeze makes me feel fine
Blowin' through the jasmine in my mind
Sing it, summer breeze makes me feel fine
Blowin' through the jasmine in my mind, yeah

When I come home from a hard day's work
And you're waitin' there not a care in the world

See the smile a waitin' in the kitchen
Food cooking and the plates for two
Feel the arms that reach out to hold me
In the evenin' when the day is through

Summer breeze makes me feel fine
Blowin' through the jasmine in my mind
Summer breeze makes me feel fine
Blowin' through the jasmine in my mind

Here we go, summer breeze makes me feel fine
Blowin' through the jasmine in my mind
Come on, summer breeze makes me feel fine
Blowin' through the jasmine in my mind

All I Am Lyrics – George Benson

Don't now the right words to say
I'm not magic
Don't hold the world in my hands
Wish I could fly to the ear like a hero
But I'm just some one who loves you
That's all I am

Wish I could take you away to a palace
Make you the Queen of a land
All the riches and gold
I don't haven't
I'm just some one who loves you
That's all I am

Love that is pure and secret
I have all you need
And with you that's everything to me
So I'm cherish the moment
I've saw you
I might not give much more than that
But if you look in my heart you'll find
That I'm some one who loves you
That's what I am

So I'm cherish the moment
I've saw you
Life might not give me more than that
But if you look in my heart you will find
That I'm some one who loves you
That's all I am

Some one who loves you
That's what I am

I'm some one who loves you
That's all I am

Ordinary People Lyrics – George Benson

Take it slow
This time we'll take it slow
Take it slow
This time we'll take it slow

Take it slow
This time we'll take it slow
Take it slow
This time we'll take it slow

Take it slow
This time we'll take it slow
Take it slow

Let It Rain Lyrics – George Benson

I can be so selfish, sad and moody
I can hear my mama talking to me
She said, 'Girl, you need to change your attitude'
I come home tired and I'm rude to you

And I've got a little problem with 'I'm sorry'
I say go to hell and in a hurry
And if that hurts, I get a little mad at you
The truth we know I'm a little jealous too

Well, if tears like rain have magic powers
Here they come again, them midnight showers

Let it rain tonight, purify like holy water
When I pray tonight, gonna say how much I want her
Start it again
[Incomprehensible]
And take it way back when

Do you remember those sweet talks early morning?
Looking and I turn into the dawning
If this works I'll thank the Lord with gratitude
I tell you I'd do all I got to do

But if tears like rain have magic powers
Here they come again, them midnight showers

Let it rain tonight, purify like holy water
Gonna pray tonight, gonna say how much I want her
Start it again, baby baby ooh I wanna start again
Take it way back when, well, well, yeah, yeah, come on

Let it rain, water wait I'm walkin'
Wash me up and wash me down
Gonna be good for me, oh let it rain
No more turning, no more tossing
Just like Christmas in the morning for you and me

Let it rain tonight, purify like holy water
When I pray tonight, gonna say how much I want her
Start it again
Take it way back when

Let it rain, tell water to wait I'm walkin'
Wash me up and wash me down, be good for me
Let it rain, no more turning and tossing
Just like Christmas in the morning for you and me

Let it rain tonight, purify like holy water
When I pray tonight

Givin' It Up For Love Lyrics – George Benson

Give, give, givin' it up
This is my story
And over the story
Givin' it up for love

This is my story
I gave it up to love
Let me tell you how

I could have been an architect
I could have been a doctor
Been a good police detective
Looking for a robber

??
Could put up a real good fight
I got good chance but I'm givin' it up for love

I could have been an architect
I could have been a doctor
Been a good police detective
Looking for a robber

Through solo Shanghai
I'm born to make Lee a loner
Could put up a real good fight
I got good chance but I'm givin' it up for love

I gave it up
Givin' it up to love
I gave up everything
My everything gone

I gave it up
Yes, I'm givin' it up to love
I gave up everything

What would you do, do for love?
Wounded in cruel sacrifices and blood
Darling don't stress, no, darling don't go
I'll be an angel as long as we keep on singin' this song

I could have been an architect
I could have been a doctor
Been a good police detective
Looking for a robber

Through solo Shanghai
I'm born to make Lee a loner
Could've put up a real good fight
I got good chance but I'm givin' it up for love

I could have been an astronaut
Or a half-past lawyer
Or an
??
Just find
??

They wrote in the
??
Could've put up a real good fight
I got good chance but I'm givin' it up for love

I gave it up
Givin' it up to love
I gave up everything
My everything gone

I gave it up
Yes, givin' it up to love
I gave up everything

What you'd do for love, love?
Would you give it up?
What you'd do for love, love?
Would you give it up?

Baby, I'm in love with you
What am I supposed to do
Anything that I can do
Givin' all my love to you
Baby, I'm in love with you
Anyone will see that I'm gone

Baby, I'm in love with you
What am I supposed to do
Anything that I can do
Givin' all my love to you
Baby, I'm in love with you
Anyone will see that I'm gone

Baby, I'm in love with you
What am I supposed to do
Anything that I can do
Givin' all my love to you
Baby, I'm in love with you
Anyone will see that I'm gone

Every Time You Go Away Lyrics – George Benson

Hey, if we can solve any problem
Why do we lose so many tears?
Oh, so you go again
When the leading man appears

Always the same thing
Can't you see we got everything
Going on and on and on

Every time you go away
You take a piece of me with you
Every time you go away
You take a piece of me with you

Go on and go free, yeah
Maybe you're too close to see
I can feel your body move
It doesn't mean that much to me

I can't go on saying the same thing
Just can't you see we got everything
Baby, even though you know

Every time you go away
You take a piece of me with you
Every time you go away
You take a piece of me with you

I can't go on saying the same thing
'Cause baby can't you see we got everything
Going on and on and on

Every time you go away
You take a piece of me with you
Every time you go away
You take a piece of me with you

Every time you go away
You take a piece of me with you
Every time you go away
Take away best of me, come on take away the rest of me

Every time you go away
You take a piece of me with you
Every time you go away
Take away best of me, come on take away the rest of me

Every time you go away

Bring It On Home To Me Lyrics – George Benson

If you ever change your mind
About leavin', leavin' me behind
Oh yeah, bring it to me, bring your sweet lovin'
Bring it on home to me, yeah, yeah, yeah

I know I laughed when you left
But now I know I've only hurt myself
Oh, now bring it to me, bring your sweet lovin'

Till I'm buried, buried in my grave
Oh, honey bring it to me, bring your sweet lovin'

But you stayed out day and night
I'll forgive you darlin', but you better bring it on home
