Marvin Gaye Sexual Healing Lyrics:
(Get up, get up, get up, get up.)

And baby, I can't hold it much longer.

- Ain't No Mountain High Enough
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
Ain't nothing like the real thing
I got your picture hanging on my wall
But it can't seem to come to me
When I call your name
I realized it's just a picture in a frame
- Ain't No Mountain High Enought
Listen Baby
Ain't no mountain high.
Ain't no valley low.
Ain't no river wide enough baby.
If you need me, call me
No matter where you are
- Ain't No...
Listen, baby
Ain't no mountain high
Ain't no vally low
Ain't no river wide enough, baby
If you need me, call me
No matter where you are
No matter how far (don't worry baby)
- All The Way
When somebody loves you
It's no good unless she loves you all the way
Happy to be near you when you need
Someone to cheer you all the way
Taller than the tallest tree is
That's how it's got to be
And deeper than the deep blue sea is
- All The Way 'Round
If you want to do it? Let's get it on
But how you going to act this time around
Before we take it off down to the skin
Let's get an understanding
Girl you didn't understand my philosophy
You did not understand
You just ran away from me
Oh I miss you baby
- Always
Everything went wrong,
And the whole day long
I'd feel so blue.
For the longest while
I'd forget to smile,
Then I met you.
Now that my blue days have passed,
Now that I've found you at last
- Anger
Up and down my back, my spine, in my brain
It injures me, babe....
Anger, can make you old, yes it can
I said anger, can make you sick, children... oh Jesus
Anger destroys your soul
Rage, there's no room for rage in there
There's no room for rage in here
- Anna's Song
This is Anna's song
Im making love all night long,
Take a bath in milk, and lay on your satin sheets
Laughing smiling,(oh oh)
Lay a while in,(oh oh)
Chocolate mint,candy sweets
(living across the way)cross the way
- Baby Baby Come Home
Who's gonna have to do the fixing when
He breaks your heart?
He's got you thinking you'll never part
But one day you'll find you're all alone
Who's gonna kiss you and hold you?
And tell you how much he cares?
Open wide his arms and say
"Baby, baby, come home"
- Come Get to This
Marvin Gaye}
Girl, you've been gone away a real long time

Come here, sugar, and get to this

Dear heart
Wish you were here to warm this night

- Distant Lover
You know, when you're in love and your lover leaves you

- Every Now And Then
Darling, why did I agree to ever let you go?
And why did I promise I'd never
Try to see you no more?

To take your place
Instead I find memories of you
So hard to erase
- Fanny
Only you, long as I may live, Fanny
Fanny, Fanny you, long as I may live, Fanny

- Gonna Give Her All The Love I've Got
There's a train leaving here tomorrow
And I'll be a free man once again
I'm so glad I served my time
I'm gonna meet the girl that I left behind
And when I see her, I'm gonna give her all the love I've got
When I see her, I'm gonna give her all the love I've got
There were times when each day seemed like a year
- Gonna Keep On Tryin' Till I Win Your Love
Like the birds in the trees, my heart sings a rhapsody of love for you.
Girl, you won my heart the very first time I layed eyes on you.
I know your love belongs to someone else.
But girl, I got to have you for myself.
So, I'm gonna keep on trying, just keep on trying till I win your love, woo.
Gonna keep on trying, just keep on trying till I win your love, woo.
- Got To Give It Up
I used to got out to parties
And stand around
'Cause I was too nervous
To really get down
And my body yearned to be free
I got up on the floor and found
Somebody to choose me
- Got to Give It Up SOUL
I used to go out to parties
and stand around
'cause I was too nervous
to really get down
but my body yearned to be free
I got up on the floor and thought

No more standin' there beside the walls
- Here, My Dear
I guess I'd have to say this album is

Although perhaps you may not be happy,
this is what you want,
so I conceded.
I hope it makes you happy.
There's a lot of truth in it, babe.

Every place that you wanted me to
Since I believe in dreams and fantasies and things

One day of praying and six nights of fun
The odds against going to heaven, six-to-one
You walk on the wild side
The Devil is waiting

- When Did You Stop Loving Me, When Did I Stop Loving You
You know, when you say your marriage vows, they're supposed to be for real. I mean...
if you think back about what you really said, what it's all about, honor, loving and
obeying till death do us part and all. But it shouldn't be that way, it should...it
should, it should be lies because it turns out to be lies. If you don't honor what
you said, you lie to God. The words should be changed
Ooo now as I recall, we tried a million times
Again and again and again, and that isn't all
- Wherever I Lay My Hat
By the look in your eye I can tell you're gonna cry.
Is it over me?
If it is, save your tears
For I'm not worth it, you see.
For I'm the type of boy who is always on the roam,
Wherever I lay my hat that's my home,
I'm telling you that's my home.
You had romance, did you break it by chance over me?
- Why Did I Choose You
Why did I choose you?
What did I see in you?
I saw the heart you hide so well
I saw a quiet girl, who had a gentle way,
and it caught me in its glowing spell
Why did I want you?
What could you offer me?
- Yesterday
Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh, I believe in yesterday.
Suddenly, I'm not half to man I used to be,
There's a shadow hanging over me.
Oh, yesterday came suddenly.
- You
WHOOO You, you I see in my mirror in the mornin'
Instead of seein' me
I see you, I see your face
And inside me is a growing need for your embrace
In the light of day, though our faces meet
Someone there might see so we never speak
Till the dark of night, while the moon is new
When we whisper words of love in our secret rendezvous
- You Can Leave, But It's Going To Cost You
I remember like it was yesterday
We were over Gwen's
And we was trying one more time to make amends
Oh yes we was
Suddenly it occured to me it did not matter
Whether I was mad at her
Or she was mad at me
Naw, babe

Miracles right before my eyes

You are so wonderful
That being near you is all I'm living for
You show me more kindness in little ways
Than I've ever known in all my days
Tell me we'll stay together
Let me love you forever
'Cause you're a wonderful one
