Marvin Gaye - More Than a Heart Can Stand

Ooh it's more than a heart can stand
It's more than a heart can stand, yes it is

Oh my days were dark as night
But the sunshine of your love
Baby, baby, brought light to me
I was lost, oh hopeless though
But like a blessing from above
You gave new life to me
Ooh now you say you're leaving
You say you're taking my sunshine away
Oh I can see the loneliness closing in on me

Ooh and it's more than a heart can stand
It's more than a heart can stand, yes it is
Losing you is more than a heart
Can stand, yes it is, yes it is
More than a heart can stand, yes it is

If I thought that crying
Would change your mind ooh baby
Don't you know I'd cry a million tears
If I thought that lying would persuade
You not to leave me
Ooh baby, oh I'd lie for a million years
Can't we talk it over, can't we make amends
Please don't lock me up in loneliness again

Ooh it's more than a heart can stand
Oh it's more than a heart can stand
Yes it is losing you is more than a heart
Can stand, yes it is, yes it is
More than a heart can stand, yes it is

Oh now that you've brought
Me out of loneliness oh please, baby please
Don't take my happiness
You know that I love you
No matter what you do
But what would I do without you?

It's more than a heart can stand
Oh it's more than a heart can stand
Yes it is losing you is more than a heart
Can stand, yes it is, yes it is
It's more than a heart can stand, yes it is
