Eddie Kendricks - Can I Lyrics






Can I have a talk with you? (Hmm, yeah)
Can I make a dream come true?
And can, whoa, can I be in love with you? (Here's why I need to know)
'Cause I would if I could (Let your mind relax, lay your head on my heart)

Can I set your soul on fire? Oh, baby
And can I, can I, can I, can I be your one desire?
Ooh (Can I), can I, can I be in love with you?
I would if I could (Whoa-oh)

Maybe you are lonely and just haven't realized
That I'm lonely too and will bring happiness to you
Yes, I would
Can I (Can I), can I (Can I), can I (Can I), can I (Can I)
Can I (Can I), can I (Can I)

See me
Feel me
Touch me
Woo, baby

(Alright)
Yeah
(Alright)
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah

See me
Feel me
Touch me
Woo, ooh, baby

Yeah
Girl, it's you that sends my a whole world a-spinin'
(You better make a till)
That's why I'm steadily givin', yeah , yeah

Oh, baby (Can I)

Ooh, oh, baby
Baby, yeah
Mmm-hmm
Hoo-ooh, ooh, ooh, baby

Oh, yeah
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh
Oh, yeah
Yeah (Can I)
Ooh, ooh
(Baby)

(Lay your head on my heart)
(Just let me talk to ya) Yeah, hmm
(For once in my life, tomorrow came today)
(So don't, please don't let it slip, slip away)

    Did Eddie know what he did to the World with this "SONG"!

    B.... T....

    I often wonder if Eddie knew just how much people really loved him. Women thought/think he was sexy as hell! Otis said women would go crazy and fall out all over floor when Eddie took the mic to song a solo part. So, I guess he did have somewhat of an idea. Gone to soon! Sweet Eddie 😘💕
