I Love You More Than You'll Ever Know (Live at the Bitter End, New York City, 1971)

I Love You More Than You'll Ever Know (Live at the Bitter End, New York City, 1971) - Donny Hathaway

If I ever leave you

You can say I told you so

And if I ever hurt you

You know I hurt myself as well

Is that any way for a man to carry on

Do you think I want my loved one gone

Said

I love you more than you'll ever know

More than you'll ever know

When I wasn't making too much money

You know where my paycheck went

I brought it home to you baby

And I never spent one red cent

Is that any way for a man to carry on

Do you think I want my loved one gone

Said

I love you more than you'll ever know

More than you'll ever know

Now listen to this

I'm not trying to be

Just any kind of man no I ain't

I'm just trying to be somebody

You can love trust and understand

I know I know that I can be

A part of you that no one else could see

Yeah

But I gotta hear you say

I got to hear you say

It's alright

I'm only flesh and blood

But I could be anything that you demand

I could be King of everything

Or just a tiny grain of sand

Is that anyway for a man to carry on

Do you think that I want my loved one gone

Said I love you more than you'll ever know

I said "I love you

I love you I love you

I don't want nobody else

I don't need nobody else

I just want you baby when i said

That's the reason why

I love you i say i want you i need you yeah
