Lyrics marvin gaye distant lover

Distant lover, lover.
(Lover, lover, lover, lover)
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh.

Say you love me.)
Misery.

As I reminisce, oh baby, through our joyful summer together,
The promises we made, all the daily letters.
(Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh.)
Then all of a sudden, everything seems to explode. Oh.
(Say you love me. Just say you think of me.
Ahhhhhhh.
(Oooh.) Oh baby, don't go.
Please come back, baby.

Something I wanna say, (Lover, lover, lover, lover)
When you left, you took all of me with you.
Now all I want from you, baby,
Do you wanna...Do you wanna hear me scream please.
Please, please, oh please, baby.
Come back home, girl.
Oh baby.

Please, oh please baby
Come back home, girl
Oh baby, come back, oh, oh

Marvin Gaye Lyrics

Distant lover, lover
So many miles away
Heaven knows that I long for you

Every night, every night
And sometimes I yearn
Through the day

Distant lover
You should think about me
And say a prayer for me

Please, please baby
Think about me sometimes
Think about me here
Here in misery, misery

As I reminisce, oh baby
Through our joyful summer together
The promises we made
All the daily letters

Then, all of a sudden
Everything seemed to explode
Now, I gaze out my window
Sugar, down a lonesome road

Distant lover
Sugar, how can you treat my heart
So mean and cruel?
Sugar, sugar

That every moment when I spent with you
I treasure it like it was
A precious jewel, oh baby
Lord have mercy

Oh baby, don't go
Please, come back baby
Somethin' I wanna say
When you left you took all of me with you

My Lord I wonder
Do you wanna hear me scream, plead
And please, please, oh please baby
Come back and hold me, girl
Baby please, please

Marvin Gaye - Distant Lover Lyrics

You know, when you're in love and your lover leaves you
And you've got nobody, the lonely hours over here
Sittin' home and thinkin', you say

Distant lover, darlin', ooh hoo hoo
So many miles away, ooh please
Oh please, baby, think about me
Hey, in misery

Oh say, baby, as I reminisce about your life
That we shared together
The promises we made, baby
Of the day you left, child

Then all of a sudden, if it may seem to explode
Now I gaze out my window, sugar, down a lonesome road, ooh

Distant lover, ooh, sugar
How can you treat my heart so mean and cruel
Didn't you know, sugar, that I dream
Of what I spent with you

I treasure it like it was a precious jewel, oh baby
Lord have mercy

Oh baby, don't go
Please come back, baby
Ooo, something I wanna say
When you left to go away

No 'ther do I want, do you wanna have me plead and scream
Please!

The words deliver the agony of missing the person one loves the most, recalling the past joy, and begging for the loved one to come back, thus, underscoring the value of the couple's togetherness. Say you love me. Oooh, oooh, oooh, lover.
(Lover, lover, lover, lover)
You should think about me and say a prayer for me.
Please, please baby, think about me sometimes.
Think a about me in misery.

Say you love me.
