Lyrics: You were my wife My life, my hopes and dreams For you to understand what this means I shall explain I stood all the jealousy All the bitchin', too Yes, I'd forget it all Once in bed with you Oh darlin' How did we end up like this? Oh baby, let me reminisce And when we Ooh, we stop the hands of time You set my soul on fire My one desire was to love you And think of you with pride And keep you satisfied Oh baby, oh baby We could not bear the mental strain Leave you, I never meant to Now you see how much you hurt me But, if you ever need me I'll be by your side Though the many happy times we had Can really never outweigh the bad Oh, I never loved nobody Like I love you, baby Now it's time for us to say farewell Farewell, my darlin' Maybe we'll meet down the line (Ooh baby) It's too late for you and me It's too late for you and I Much too late for you to cry It's too late for you and me Much too late for you and I It's too late for you and me Much too late for you to cry, baby Oh, we tried God knows we tried Now it's too late To live and learn Oh, it's too late, baby It's too late for you and me Much too late for you to cry Oh It's much too late Oh, well All we can do, is we can both try to be happy #MarvinGaye #JustToKeepYouSatisfied
