What have you done to me
I can't eat, I cannot sleep
And I'm not the same anymore
I don't know what to do
All of me wants all of you
Do I stand alone at the shore?
Now once I coud turn away
From everything I feel today
But, now I want to walk
through your door
(chorus)
But I've got to know - oh
Body and soul
That you've got no doubt
inside and out
We are whole - oh
Body and soul
Don't leave me out in the cold
Just love me body and soul
-do you hear me baby-
I've wasted too much time
Livin' for what wasn't mine
Then came the day I found you
And now I want nothing less
I've found a love that is truly blessed
I wanna make dreams come true
(chorus)
But I've got to know - oh
Body and soul
that you've got no doubt,
inside and out
We are whole - oh
Body and soul
Don't leave me out in the cold,
Just love me body and soul
(bridge)
Every day is getting better,
The more I trust I feel
stronger, stronger
Every kiss brings me closer,
It feels good to love you
inside
(ad lib)
is there any doubt
in your mind?
oh babe,
love me baby
love me
Just love me,
body, baby and soul,
Just love me....
Body... and.....soul
