love has finally come at last

Bobby Womack

Love has finally come at last
And I'm never gonna give it back
OOh, no, no, no, no
Love has finally come at last
And I'm never gonna give it back
OOh, no, no, no, no, no

Just like an old cliché, one that simply says
You can't miss what you never had
I thought that love was just a feeling that I'd give to her
And in return, she'd give it back
But it's more than a friendly sensation
Oh, I had to be tripping out on the girls
Body vibration, but I knew. Oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah

Love has finally come at last
And I'm never gonna give it back
OOh, no, no, no, no
I'm so glad I can stand here today and say
I'm so glad about it
Love has finally come at last (OOh, baby.)
And I'm never gonna give it back
OOh, no, no, no, no, no
Listen to me now

Just like a tender young virgin in her first love affair
I doubt if she'd ever do it again
Would she even care
But as time pressed on
OOh, ooh, the girl caught on
Nothing more she'd do with the boy
She seemed to want it, want it, want it. (Want it, want it)
OOh
But there's one side of love I'd never, never, never known, baby
Until you came along
I can, I can tell the world

(Love has finally come at last) Oh, I can tell it. I can tell it
(And I'm never gonna give it back.)
Oh, never, never, never. (OOh, no, no, no, no.)
Say it again
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Love has finally come at last
And I'm never gonna give it back
I'm gonna keep it, yes I am. (OOh, no, no, no, no, no.)

Break it down to me easy
'Cause everybody needs some kind of love in their life
Some kind of shape, form or fashion
Some kind of shape, form or fashion
Oh, and just like the flowers need the rain
And they need, they need love to grow
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I got you, baby. (Oh, I got you baby.)
That's all you'll ever need
Oh no. OOh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Chased away the blues in my life
(Oh, you made my day so bright.)
You got a way of making everything alright

(Saxophone solo)

OOh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Somebody understand me now

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh. (Love has finally come at last)
I'm so glad. (And I'm never gonna give it back.)
OOh, no, no, no, no
When something good happens to you
You just wanna let everybody know
(Love has finally come at last) Let everybody know
(And I'm never gonna give it back.)
Seems like it took so long, took so long
(OOh, no, no, no, no, no.)
But now you're here. (Love has finally come at last)
Now you're here. (And I'm never gonna give it back.)
Yeah, and I'm so glad. (OOh, no, no, no, no.)
Everybody sing the song (Love has finally come at last)
(And I'm never gonna give it back.)
If you can understand where I'm coming from
(OOh, no, no, no, no, no.)
Where I'm from. (Love has finally come at last)
Where I'm from. (And I'm never gonna give it back.)
