Love Fell On Me Lyrics

Artist : MARVIN GAYE
Album : Take Two
(with Kim Weston)

[MG:] I used to go my way all by myself, me, my shadow & I
Happy-go-lucky, nobody else but me, my shadow & I
One day out of the clear blue skies
I dared to look in your eyes
So tenderly, that's how love fell on me, yes indeed

[KW:] I used to laugh at all my friends
Gettin' ready for Valentines Day
Givin' candy & kisses & friendship rings
"Sweets for the sweet," they say
One day when the sun was warm
I couldn't help but take you in my arms
So tenderly, that's how love fell on me

[MG:] Listen, Kim: it didn't hit me like a ton of bricks
But I felt it just the same
[KW:] Marvin, love came creepin' right into my heart
When you whispered my name
So sweet & tender, I had to surrender
I knew I had really been hit
[BOTH:] So tenderly, that's how love fell on me
So tenderly, that's how love fell on me

[MG:] I couldn't help myself at all
[KW:] You know, you came along & I had to fall
[repeat & fade]
[BOTH:] So tenderly, that's how love fell on me
