"Lord You Made Us Human" lyrics
"Lord You Made Us Human"
Lord, you made us human
Why should I complain
You gave me a heart, you gave me a soul
And you tried to give me a brain
Lord, you made us human
What a trick to play
On this lovely world of ours
Why do you want to treat us this way
I'm just one of the millions
Helping to destroy
Wonders by the billions
You gave to us to enjoy
Lord, you made us human
So I must confess
I'd like to think that all mankind
Is better than the rest
But we're self-forgiving
We're unlike bees or bird
We are sinning for a living
Lord help, please help your human herd
Lord, you made us human
What a thing to be
Couldn't you have made instead an angel
Out of me?

Natalie Cole - "Our Love Is Here To Stay" It's very clear
Our love is here to stay
Not for a year
But ever and a day
The radio, and the telephone
And the movies that we know
May just be passing fancies

But, oh, my...
Judy Garland - "Come Rain Or Come Shine" I'm gonna love you
Like nobody's loved you
Come rain or come shine
High as a mountain deep as a river
Come rain or come shine
I guess when you met me
It was just one of those things
But don't ever...
