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
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

Everyday my joys are like a waterfall
Little things you do like a simple call
And my night is something like a miracle

Strings Of Love Lyrics – George Benson
She signs her name on my guitar
Spanish kisses on my heart
We dance flamenco in the dark
On my strings of love
Thru the night i cried her name
To the pounding of the ring
Swept the way in passions flame
On my strings of love
(Hmm...)
Tender out the way she hunts my mind
She was only mine one night in time
Chasing after the dreams she've left behind
No one compares to how she shines
Though she's gone without a trace
I'm seeing visions of her face
Kisses by the fire place
We're on my strings of love
(Hmm...)
Tender out the way she hunts my mind
She was only mine one night in time
Chasing after the dreams she've left behind
No one compares to how she shines
She signs her name on my guitar
Spanish kisses on my heart
We dance flamenco in the dark
We're on my strings of love
On my strings of love
We're on my strings of love
We're on my strings of love
Spanish kisses on my heart
We dance flamenco in the dark
On my strings of love
Thru the night i cried her name
To the pounding of the ring
Swept the way in passions flame
On my strings of love
(Hmm...)
Tender out the way she hunts my mind
She was only mine one night in time
Chasing after the dreams she've left behind
No one compares to how she shines
Though she's gone without a trace
I'm seeing visions of her face
Kisses by the fire place
We're on my strings of love
(Hmm...)
Tender out the way she hunts my mind
She was only mine one night in time
Chasing after the dreams she've left behind
No one compares to how she shines
She signs her name on my guitar
Spanish kisses on my heart
We dance flamenco in the dark
We're on my strings of love
On my strings of love
We're on my strings of love
We're on my strings of love
Cell Phone Lyrics – George Benson
If u ever lost someone you know where I'm coming from, (check it)
Papa never missed a day of work in his life he had to hold it down for his kids and his wife,
He taught us love and wrong from right true respect for life,
I was in the shop when they told me the news holding back tears trying to say it wasn't true,
U were my strength my shining light a hero dressed in blue.
[Chorus:]
Tell god that I'm trying to keep my head up to the sky,
Strong like a solider but he never said goodbye,
Operator can i get an open line,
I just want to know
[Chorus 2:]
Can a cell phone reach to heaven,
You were always my best friend and I'm dying to hear your voice again.
Can a cell phone reach to heaven,
I pray to god above I'll dial a perfect seven can my cell phone reach to....
If you ever lost someone you know where I'm coming from, (holler)
His clothes were old but he always kept them pressed every time he blew he'd buy mama a new dress,
When friends were broke no need to ask he would always give his last,
True defination of a family man when I would strike out he was my biggest fan,
He said a man must loose to win go out and try again.
[Chorus]
[Chorus 2]
If you ever lost someone you know where I'm coming from (sing it)
If you ever lost someone you know where I'm coming from,
On the whispers of the rising sun,
That distant voice will come once again, once again, once again, once again.
If you ever lost someone you know where I'm coming from,
On the whispers of the rising sun,
That distant voice will come once again, once again, once again, once again.
Can a cell phone reach to heaven, (cell phone, oohh, reach to heaven ya'll)
You were always my best friend and I'm dying to hear your voice again. (I gotta hear your voice,)
Can a cell phone reach to heaven, (oh yeah)
I pray to god above I'll dial a perfect seven
And my cell phone reaches, (can my cell phone reach to heaven)

Stairway To Love Lyrics – George Benson
You were the owner of a broken heart.
You didn't know that I was falling in love from afar
Every morning, wiping tears from your eyes
You never dreamed someone was watching and heard every cry
What are the odds of a fool finding in love
It's a one in a million shot in the dark
Just when I thought there's no need holdin' on..
You wrapped me in your arms and took me on a stairway to love..
And that's where you'll find true emotion, dear
Deeper than the deepest ocean,
High up where jealous fools can't break us
We're on a stairway to love..stairway to love.
A little candlelight, a fire for two,
A glass of chardonnay bring out the lover in you
So dancing through the night makes a picture so right
Two silhouettes framed as one in the moonlight
What are the odds of a fool finding in love
It's a one in a million shot in the dark
Just when I thought there's no need holdin on..
You wrapped me in your arms and took me on a stairway to love..
And that's where you'll find true emotion, dear
Deeper than the deepest ocean,
High up where jealous fools can't break us
We're on a stairway to love..stairway to love.
Are you ready?
We can fly away right now to Tahiti
Pack your bags. Whatever you want,
You can have, here on the stairway to love..
It's where you'll find true emotion, dear
Deeper than the deepest ocean,
High up where jealous fools can't break us
We're on a stairway to love..stairway to love.
You didn't know that I was falling in love from afar
Every morning, wiping tears from your eyes
You never dreamed someone was watching and heard every cry
What are the odds of a fool finding in love
It's a one in a million shot in the dark
Just when I thought there's no need holdin' on..
You wrapped me in your arms and took me on a stairway to love..
And that's where you'll find true emotion, dear
Deeper than the deepest ocean,
High up where jealous fools can't break us
We're on a stairway to love..stairway to love.
A little candlelight, a fire for two,
A glass of chardonnay bring out the lover in you
So dancing through the night makes a picture so right
Two silhouettes framed as one in the moonlight
What are the odds of a fool finding in love
It's a one in a million shot in the dark
Just when I thought there's no need holdin on..
You wrapped me in your arms and took me on a stairway to love..
And that's where you'll find true emotion, dear
Deeper than the deepest ocean,
High up where jealous fools can't break us
We're on a stairway to love..stairway to love.
Are you ready?
We can fly away right now to Tahiti
Pack your bags. Whatever you want,
You can have, here on the stairway to love..
It's where you'll find true emotion, dear
Deeper than the deepest ocean,
High up where jealous fools can't break us
We're on a stairway to love..stairway to love.

Masquerade Is Over Lyrics – George Benson
My blue horizon is turning grey
And my dreams are drifting away
Your eyes don't shine like they used to shine
And the thrill is gone when your lips meet mine
I'm afraid the masquerade is over
And so is love, and so is love
Your words don't mean what they used to mean
They were once inspired, now they're just routine
I'm afraid the masquerade is over
And so is love, and so is love
I guess I'll have to play Pagliacci
And get myself a clown's disguise
And learn to laugh like Pagliacci
With tears in my eyes
You look the same, you're a lot the same
But my heart says "no, no, you're not the same"
I'm afraid the masquerade is over
And so is love, and so is love
[Instrumental interlude]
I guess I'll have to play Pagliacci
And get myself a clown's disguise
And learn to laugh like Pagliacci
With tears in my eyes
You look the same, you're a lot the same
But my heart says "No, no, you're not the same"
I'm afraid the masquerade is over
And so is love, and so is love
And my dreams are drifting away
Your eyes don't shine like they used to shine
And the thrill is gone when your lips meet mine
I'm afraid the masquerade is over
And so is love, and so is love
Your words don't mean what they used to mean
They were once inspired, now they're just routine
I'm afraid the masquerade is over
And so is love, and so is love
I guess I'll have to play Pagliacci
And get myself a clown's disguise
And learn to laugh like Pagliacci
With tears in my eyes
You look the same, you're a lot the same
But my heart says "no, no, you're not the same"
I'm afraid the masquerade is over
And so is love, and so is love
[Instrumental interlude]
I guess I'll have to play Pagliacci
And get myself a clown's disguise
And learn to laugh like Pagliacci
With tears in my eyes
You look the same, you're a lot the same
But my heart says "No, no, you're not the same"
I'm afraid the masquerade is over
And so is love, and so is love
Witchcraft Lyrics – George Benson
Those fingers in my hair that sly come hither stare
That strips my conscience bare, it's witchcraft
And I've got no defense for it, the heat is too intense for it
What good would common sense for it do?
'Cause it's witchcraft, wicked witchcraft
And although, I know, it's strictly taboo
When you arouse the need in me
My heart says yes indeed in me
Proceed with what your leading me to
It's such an ancient pitch but one I wouldn't switch
'Cause there's no nicer witch than you
'Cause it's witchcraft, that crazy witchcraft
And although, I know, it's strictly taboo
When you arouse the need in me
My heart says yes indeed in me
Proceed with what your leading me to
It's such an ancient pitch but one I wouldn't switch
'Cause there's no nicer witch than you
That strips my conscience bare, it's witchcraft
And I've got no defense for it, the heat is too intense for it
What good would common sense for it do?
'Cause it's witchcraft, wicked witchcraft
And although, I know, it's strictly taboo
When you arouse the need in me
My heart says yes indeed in me
Proceed with what your leading me to
It's such an ancient pitch but one I wouldn't switch
'Cause there's no nicer witch than you
'Cause it's witchcraft, that crazy witchcraft
And although, I know, it's strictly taboo
When you arouse the need in me
My heart says yes indeed in me
Proceed with what your leading me to
It's such an ancient pitch but one I wouldn't switch
'Cause there's no nicer witch than you
Li'l Darlin' Lyrics – George Benson
Don't need no palace paved with gold
Don't need more cash than banks can hold
When I get to feelin' a feelin'
For something there ain't too much of
My sweet lil darlin' gives me her love
Don't catch me chasin' round at night
I'm not impressed by glamour sights
Lil darlin' may not be as pretty
As some other gals you can see
But my lil darlin' only loves me
Don't need more cash than banks can hold
When I get to feelin' a feelin'
For something there ain't too much of
My sweet lil darlin' gives me her love
Don't catch me chasin' round at night
I'm not impressed by glamour sights
Lil darlin' may not be as pretty
As some other gals you can see
But my lil darlin' only loves me
All The Things You Are Lyrics – George Benson
You are the promised kiss of springtime
That makes the lonely winter seem long
You are the breathless hush of evening
That trembles on the brink of a lovely song
You are the angel glow that lights a star
The dearest things I know are what you are
Someday my happy arms will hold you
And someday I'll know that moment divine
When all the things you are, are mine
That makes the lonely winter seem long
You are the breathless hush of evening
That trembles on the brink of a lovely song
You are the angel glow that lights a star
The dearest things I know are what you are
Someday my happy arms will hold you
And someday I'll know that moment divine
When all the things you are, are mine
Invitation Lyrics – George Benson
You and your smile
Hold a strange invitation
Somehow it seems
We've shared our dreams
But where?
Time after time
In a room full of strangers
Out of the blue
Suddenly you are there
Wherever I go
You're the glow of temptation
Glancing my way
In the gray of the dawn
And always your eyes
Smile that strange invitation
When you are gone
Where oh, where have you gone?
How long must I stay
In a world of illusion?
Be where you are
So near yet so far apart
Hoping you'll say
With a warm invitation
Where have you been?
Darling, come in into my heart
Wherever I go
You're the glow of temptation
Glancing my way
In the gray of the dawn
And always your eyes
Smile that strange invitation
When you are gone
Where oh, where have you gone?
How long must I stay
In a world of illusion?
Be where you are
So near yet so far apart
Hoping you'll say
With a warm invitation
Where have you been?
Darling, come in into my heart
Hold a strange invitation
Somehow it seems
We've shared our dreams
But where?
Time after time
In a room full of strangers
Out of the blue
Suddenly you are there
Wherever I go
You're the glow of temptation
Glancing my way
In the gray of the dawn
And always your eyes
Smile that strange invitation
When you are gone
Where oh, where have you gone?
How long must I stay
In a world of illusion?
Be where you are
So near yet so far apart
Hoping you'll say
With a warm invitation
Where have you been?
Darling, come in into my heart
Wherever I go
You're the glow of temptation
Glancing my way
In the gray of the dawn
And always your eyes
Smile that strange invitation
When you are gone
Where oh, where have you gone?
How long must I stay
In a world of illusion?
Be where you are
So near yet so far apart
Hoping you'll say
With a warm invitation
Where have you been?
Darling, come in into my heart
