Lyrics

Have I told you
Lately that I love you
If I didn't, darlin'
You see, I'm so sorry
Didn't I reach out
And hold you
In these lovin' arms
Well, if I didn't, oh baby
Well, I'm so sorry
When I realized that you need love too
Gonna spend my life makin' love to you
Got to be a lover
Have mercy
Forgot to be a lover, babe. (have mercy)
Forgot to be a lover. (have mercy)
Forgot to be a lover
Make it on through to you somehow. (have mercy, baby)
Got to be a lover, babe (forgot to be a lover)
Woo! woo!
Well, did I ask you
Yes would you come and share
Oh, share
Oh, the burden and the task
That's at love's command
Didn't I say
All those lovin' special things
That you long to hear
To show how much I care
Well, when I realize
That you need love too
Gonna spend my life
Makin' love to you
Forgot to be a lover
Have mercy
Well, well, I worked all day
Hard as I can
Worked all night, didn't make me a man
(Forgot to be a lover)
Have mercy, oo
When I realized
That you need love too
Gonna spend my life
Makin' love to you. (forgot to be a lover)
Got to be a lover, babe
Oo, mercy (have mercy)
Have mercy, baby. (have mercy, baby)
I'm gonna make it on through
To you somehow
So have mercy. (have mercy. have mercy, baby)
Have I told you
Yes, lately that I love you
If I didn't, oh baby
Yes, I'm so sorry
Ah, but you know I really love you, baby. (love you baby)
I really love you baby (love you baby)
I really need you baby (need you baby)
I really want you baby (want you baby)
When I realized
That you need love too
I'm gonna spend my life
Makin' love
Makin' love
Makin' love to you
Well, I worked all day
As hard as I can
Worked all night
It didn't make me a man, babe
(Forgot to be a lover) (have mercy)
Oo, have mercy baby (have mercy)
Have mercy baby (have mercy)
Oo, have mercy baby (have mercy baby)
Oo, make it on through
Well, when I realized that you need love too
I'm gonna spend my life
Gotta spend my life makin' love to you
(Got, got to be a lover, have mercy, forgot to be a lover)
