Betty Wright - Passion & Compassion Lyrics

PASSION AND COMPASSION


I lay in one man's arms
and I felt he needed me
In his mind I was his everything
Everything he wanted me to be
I went through the motions
He made love wholeheartedly
He asked those dangerous words again
Baby do you love me?
I said yes I love you
But I'm not in love with you
It hurts you when I'm honest
But to my heart I must be true


CHORUS
Passion and Compassion
Passion and Compassion
Are miles and miles
And worlds and worlds apart
(Repeat 2X)
I dreamed I was in another's arms
and I knew I wanted him
The chances of us being together
were between none and slim
He touched me in some places
that I've never been touched before
We made love wholeheartedly
Till we just couldn't no more
I said yes! I love you
and yes! I'm in love with you
This is passion, not compassion
Doin what my heart says do.

CHORUS (Repeat 2X)

I said yes! I love you
and yes! I'm in love with you
This is passion, not compassion
Doin what my heart says do.

The most any woman can do is listen to her heart
(repeat 2X)
