[Lyric] Got to Have You Back Alternate Version (The Isley Brothers)

[Intro]
(Got to have you back) I need you
(Got to have you back)

[Verse 1]
A jealous lie hurt my foolish pride
Made me break your heart
Now our love has died
I see a closing door - a door never more
A door of jealousy between your love and me
Now life's a storm of tears
You took the sunshine from my face
Now I'm just another man
Who walks the undestined way
Without your guiding hand
I'm a poor example of a man
Pride made a fool of me
Now I'm drowning in my misery
Misery is drowning me

[Chorus]
(Got to have you back) I need you
(Got to have you back)
(Got to have you back)
Pray night and day for heaven to see you
(Got to have you back)
[Verse 2]
Oh, cold is a lonelinеss
Dark is the emptiness
Sincе you've been gone in me
Gone is the love I need
Pride destroyed the love we knew
But not my need for you
Without your love around
My whole world is falling down
Falling down, falling down, hey

[Outro]
(Got to have you back)
Gotta, gotta get you, love
(Got to have you back)
Gotta have you back
(Got to have you back)
Girl, I need your love
(Got to have you back)
Come on back to me
And take my heart up out this misery, ah
(Got to have you back)
Gotta, gotta, gotta get your love
(Got to have you back)
Oh, got to have you back
(Got to have you back)
Gotta, gotta, gotta
(Got to have you back)
