Ben, the two of us need look no more
We both found what we were looking for
With a friend to call my own
I'll never be alone
And you, my friend, will see
You've got a friend in me
(you've got a friend in me)
Ben, you're always running here and there
wewe feel you're not wanted anywhere
If wewe ever look behind
And don't like what wewe find
There's something wewe should know
You've got a place to go
(you've got a place to go)
I used to say "I" and "me"
Now it's "us", now it's "we"
I used to say "I" and "me"
Now it's "us", now it's "we"
Ben, most people would turn wewe away
I don't listen to a word they say
They don't see wewe as I do
I wish they would try to
I'm sure they'd think again
If they had a friend like Ben
(a friend) Like Ben
(like Ben) Like Ben
Lyrics: Ben, Michael Jackson [end]
I'd like to be yours
Tomorrow
So I'm giving wewe some time
To think it over today
But wewe can't take my blues away
No matter what wewe say, hey

But wewe try to be
Hard to resist

I don't knowwhat's going to happen to you, baby
But I do know that I upendo you
wewe walk around this town with your head all up in the sky
And I do know that I want you
Let's dance, let's shout
Shake your body down to the ground
Shake your body down to the ground
wewe tease me with your loving to play hard to get
'Cause wewe do know that I upendo it
wewe walk around this town with your head all up in the sky
And wewe do know that I want you
Let's dance, let's shout
Shake your body down to the ground
Shake your body down to the ground
Shake your body down to the ground
Shake your body down to the ground
wewe are the spark that lit the moto inside of me
And wewe know that I upendo it
I need to do just something to get closer to your soul
And wewe do know that I want to
Let's dance, let's shout
Let's dance, let's shout
But I do know that I upendo you
wewe walk around this town with your head all up in the sky
And I do know that I want you

And wewe know that I upendo it
I need to do just something to get closer to your soul
And wewe do know that I want to
Let's dance, let's shout
Let's dance, let's shout
Looking in my mirror
Took me kwa surprise
I can't help but see you
Running often through my mind
Helpless like a baby
Sensual disguise
I can't help but upendo you
It gets better all the time
I can't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it even if I could
I can't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it, no
I can't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it even if I could
I can't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it, no
upendo to run my fingers
Softly while wewe sigh
upendo came and possessed you
Bringing sparkles to your evey
Like a trip to heaven
Heaven is the prize
I'm so glad I found you
You're an Angel in disguise
I van't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it even if I could
I can't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it, no
Took me kwa surprise
I can't help but see you
Running often through my mind
Helpless like a baby
Sensual disguise
I can't help but upendo you
It gets better all the time
I can't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it even if I could
I can't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it, no
I can't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it even if I could
I can't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it, no
upendo to run my fingers
Softly while wewe sigh
upendo came and possessed you
Bringing sparkles to your evey
Like a trip to heaven
Heaven is the prize
I'm so glad I found you
You're an Angel in disguise
I van't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it even if I could
I can't help it if I wanted to
I wouldn't help it, no

She's out of my life
She's out of my life
And I don't know whether to laugh au cry
I don't know whether to live au die
And it cuts like a knife
She's out of my life
It's out of my hands
It's out of my hands
To think for two years she was here
And I took her for granted I was so cavalier
Now the way that it stands
She's out of my hands
So I've learned that love's not possession
And I've learned that upendo won't wait
Now I've learned that upendo needs expression
But I learned too late
She's out of my life
She's out of my life
Damned indecision and cursed pride
Kept my upendo for her locked deep inside
And it cuts like a knife
She's out of my life
She's out of my life
And I don't know whether to laugh au cry
I don't know whether to live au die
And it cuts like a knife
She's out of my life
It's out of my hands
It's out of my hands
To think for two years she was here
And I took her for granted I was so cavalier
Now the way that it stands
She's out of my hands
So I've learned that love's not possession
And I've learned that upendo won't wait
Now I've learned that upendo needs expression
But I learned too late
She's out of my life
She's out of my life
Damned indecision and cursed pride
Kept my upendo for her locked deep inside
And it cuts like a knife
She's out of my life
