Got To Have You Back Lyrics By The Isley Brothers

    got to have you back i need you
    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 i face 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 can hardly tell when i’m the man
    pride made a fool of me
    now i’m drowning in misery misery is drowning me

    and i’ve got to have you back i need you
    between the night and day oh heaven speed you
    cos i need you girl
    i’ve been told it’s a loneliness
    oh dark is the emptiness
    since you’ve been gone in me
    oh gone is the lover 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 all around
    and i’ve got to have you back

    got to have you back
    got to have you back
    got to have you back
    got to have you back

    i see a closing door

    got to have you back i’m drowning in misery
    got to have you back my pride made a fool of me
    got to have you back my whole world is falling down
    got to have you back without your sweet love around

    got to have you back
