cxv. WONDER, Stevie (1950- )
from Fulfillingness' First Finale.
Usually, Stevie is upbeat and happy or delivering a sermon ... here, he seems to be breaking up with a lover.
The music is so mellow and smooth, but the message is insistent:
There ain't no reason for us sittin' down
To try to talk our problems out
'Cause we know the truth
It ain't no use. Each other we must do without
There ain't no reason tryin' to force a smile
When pain is really in its place
'Cause we know the truth
It ain't no use
Let's part before we lose love's trace
Wow oh oh ooh
(Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye)
Wo, oh, oh, oh (bye, bye, bye, bye, bye)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
As I look back I'm really tryin' to see
Just what it was that made us spark
'Cause the fire's out
It leaves no doubt
The flame's not burning in our hearts
We still are young and both of us have time
To find our winter love in spring
Yes we know the truth
It ain't no use
We're not each other's ev'rything
Wow oh oh ooh
(Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye)
Wo, oh, oh, oh (bye, bye, bye, bye, bye)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Wow oh oh ooh
(Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye)
Wo, oh, oh, oh (bye, bye, bye, bye, bye)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Why we say goodbye (bye, bye, bye, bye, bye)
The thrill is gone babe, yeah, yeah, yeah (bye, bye, bye, bye, bye)
I tried my best to make it work
But it seems that we can't get it together, together, yeah
We've got to run in the world
(Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye)
Wow oh, oh, oh, bye
(Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye)
Seems that we just don't want to do it
I guess we ran out of fluid
Ah yeah, yeah, yeah, wonderful baby, baby, baby (bye, bye, bye, bye, bye)
Don't go, take me baby, don't go baby (bye, bye, bye, bye, bye)
Ain't no use
'Cause we've run out of juice
So long baby
Bye-bye baby
