Lyrics Isaac Hayes

Isaac Hayes

Wherever You Are

I thought that I wanted to be free

And the street life was the thing for me

But I was wrong

I shouldn't have let you get away

I've seen too many lonely days

Since you've been gone

I miss you, baby

My life is coming apart

I need to be with you

Wherever you are

A different carol every night

Music, wine and soft lights

Don't help at all

'Cause when I'm about to get it on

My mind drifts to the telephone

Hoping you call

I need you baby

Stop this pain in my heart

I need to be with you

Wherever you are

You never know how deep love grows till you lose it

And you never, never, never realize

It's true for you until it's gone

You, only you can restore my piece of mind

I would truly smile again

Until you come back home

Sometimes I can hear you call my name

I must be going insane, my mind playing truth for me

Your loving arms is a therapy

That I need to get back my sanity

Oh I need you, baby

You got to stop this pain in my heart

I need to be with you

Wherever you are

I love you

Wherever you are

I need you

Wherever you are

Come to me, baby

Stop this playing in my heart

I need you

Wherever you are

I miss you

Wherever you are

Come back baby, come on back

Stop this playing in my heart

Nothing can take a place of you

I love you

Wherever you are
