Ladies Love Lyrics: Throwbacks

It's time for my first Ladies Love Lyrics of 2013. I am in love with Songza. It has ended my love affair with Pandora for now. I have a station called "The Definitive Soul Collection." It is e-very-thing to me. It plays all of my favorite old school and new school hits. That is where I came up with today's pick. I was an uber Karyn White fan. "Superwoman" was her biggest hit. So, let's reminisce a bit.



"Early in the morning I put breakfast at your table.
And make sure that your coffee has its sugar and cream.
Your eggs are over easy, your toast done lightly.
All that's missing is your morning kiss that use to greet me.

Now you say the juice is sour It used to be so sweet.
And I can't help but to wonder If you're talking 'bout me.
We don't talk the way we used to talk.
It's hurting so deep I've got my pride, I will not cry.
But it's making me weak.

Chorus:
I'm not your superwoman.
I'm not the kind of girl that you can let down.
And think that everything's okay.
Boy, I am only human.
This girl needs more than occasional hugs.
As a token of love from you to me, ooh, baby

I fought my way through the rush hour.
Trying to make it home just for you.
I want to make sure that your dinner will be waiting for you.
But when you get there you just tell me
You're not hungry at all.
You said you'd rather read the paper.
And you don't want to talk.

You'd like to think I'm just crazy
When I say that you've changed.
I'm convinced I know the problem
You don't love me the same
You're just going through the motions
And you're not being fair

I've got my pride, I will not cry.
Still I can't help but care

Chorus:
I'm not your superwoman.
I'm not the kind of girl that you can let down.
And think that everything's okay.
Boy, I am only human.
This girl needs more than occasional hugs
As a token of love from you to me... "

My second throwback pick comes from Joss Stone. I have always loved her voice. The song is "Spoiled." I have loved it for years. And, again, I heard it on Songza one night when I couldn't sleep. My Ultimate R&B Collection station is basically golden. I can never go wrong with it. I wonder where Joss is. Get intot he video and lyrics below.



"I kinda thought that I'd be better off by myself
I've never been so wrong before
You made it impossible for me to ever
Love somebody else
And now I don't know what I left you for

See I thought that I could replace you
He can't love me the way you do
'Till now I never knew
Baby

[Chorus:]
I'm spoiled
By your love boy
No matter how I try to change my mind
What's the point it's just a waste of time
I'm spoiled by your touch boy
The love you give is just too hard to fight
Don't want to live without you in my life
I'm spoiled

I tried to tell myself that I'd be over you in a week or two
But baby that was 'bout a year ago
I've never seen the word love so personified as I do with you
And that is why I just can't let go, oh no..."
