We Owe It To Ourselves by Jerry Butler Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's been said, so let it be
I want you, and you want me
Together we can find a place
Some poets have called it ecstasy
This moment is filled with such emotion
Hey, it's got its rocket like a ship
Sailing on the ocean
[Pre-Chorus]
And baby, if you still got the notion
Then why don't we let it be...
[Chorus]
'Cause we owe it to ourselves
Why can't we fall in love
I can see you and me, makin' love...
Oh baby, my my, ooh lady...
[Verse 2]
The little things you do kindle my desire
You got me burnin' up, so come attend this firе
This moment's filled with such emotion
It's got its rockеt like a ship
Sailing on the ocean
[Pre-Chorus]
And oh, if you still got the notion
Then why don't we, he-he-he-hey...
[Chorus]
'Cause we owe it to ourselves
Why can't we fall in love
I can see you and me, makin' love
Makin' love...
[Bridge]
Oh, that look in your eye
Sho-nuff says you feel it too
I really do believe you do
Something deep inside me cries
Out from needing you, ooh...
[Outro]
We owe it to ourselves
Why can't we fall in love
I can see you and me, makin' love
Ooh, we owe it to ourselves
Why can't we fall in love
I can see you and me, makin' love
We owe it to ourselves
Why can't we fall in love
I can see you and me...
It's been said, so let it be
I want you, and you want me
Together we can find a place
Some poets have called it ecstasy
This moment is filled with such emotion
Hey, it's got its rocket like a ship
Sailing on the ocean
[Pre-Chorus]
And baby, if you still got the notion
Then why don't we let it be...
[Chorus]
'Cause we owe it to ourselves
Why can't we fall in love
I can see you and me, makin' love...
Oh baby, my my, ooh lady...
[Verse 2]
The little things you do kindle my desire
You got me burnin' up, so come attend this firе
This moment's filled with such emotion
It's got its rockеt like a ship
Sailing on the ocean
[Pre-Chorus]
And oh, if you still got the notion
Then why don't we, he-he-he-hey...
[Chorus]
'Cause we owe it to ourselves
Why can't we fall in love
I can see you and me, makin' love
Makin' love...
[Bridge]
Oh, that look in your eye
Sho-nuff says you feel it too
I really do believe you do
Something deep inside me cries
Out from needing you, ooh...
[Outro]
We owe it to ourselves
Why can't we fall in love
I can see you and me, makin' love
Ooh, we owe it to ourselves
Why can't we fall in love
I can see you and me, makin' love
We owe it to ourselves
Why can't we fall in love
I can see you and me...
