The Feeling We Once Had

The Feeling We Once Had - The Wiz

Put your arms around me child

Like when you bumped your shin

Then you'll know I love you now

As I loved you then

Though you maybe trying sometimes

And I'll need you

And you're not there

I may get mad

And turn away

But Lord knows I still care

But you cannot ask for more

Than can come from me

I am different than you are

And one day you'll see

So if I lose my patience with you

And I suddenly start to scream

It's only because

I just want you to be

Everything I see in my dreams

And I'd like to know that it's there

The feelin' we through that

When you know that you

You can come running to me

Whenever times are bad

Don't lose the feeling we wans have

Don't lose the feeling we wans have

Though you're growing older now

And I'm watching you grow

I know

I make you sad sometimes

And see your feelings show

But one day

I'll look around

Oooo and you will be grown

You'll be out in the world

Such a pretty little girl

Child don't you be out there on your own

Oh and I've got to know that it's there

The feelin' feelin' we once had

When you know that you can

Come running to me

If ever times are bad

Child I just

Got to know that it's there

The feelin' feelin' we once had

When you know that you

You can come running to me

Whenever times are bad

Got when I'm get to no

Got to no
