Eddie Kendricks - Intimate Friends Lyrics






(Yeah yeah-ee-eah-ee-eeah
Whoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

An endless love, I've found in you
Warm and inspiring, in everything you do

Two joined together, to give from within
To share a love as, intimate friends

Intimate friends (so glad to be yours)
Intimate friends (whoo-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Intimate friends (sharing hours)
Intimate friends (and I know)

(And I want you to know)
Your love, takes me higher
My life, you inspire
Fill me with love and desire
Your love, takes me higher

Our love shines brigther, than the morning sun
Two hearts together becoming as one
You're a part of me - that never dies
Love undivided, 'cause we see eye to eye
'Cause we're...

Intimate friends (so glad to be yours)
Intimate friends (whoo-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Intimate friends (sharing ours)
Intimate friends (and I know)

Your love, takes me higher (baby baby)
My life, you inspire
Fill me with love and desire
Your love, takes me higher

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

So glad to be yours
Intimate friends
Intimate friends

Yeah, you're so warm
Brighter than the morning son
You and I will become as one

Your love takes me higher (higher) higher (higher)
My life you inspire

Intimate friends

Intimate friends (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Intimate friends (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Intimate friends (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

Just to be your (intimate friend)
Intimate friend

    An original Temptations. Eddie was unparalleled on this song. He should have went Platinum. What a voice. and remarkable man.

  24. E.... T....

    Good to know love has so much to do with being an intimate friend, to go higher into a love relationship the intimacy come through intercourse of two minds becoming one, therefore assuring both parties a sense of security to explore each other on a deeper and physical experience! LOVE!

  25. M.... ....

    Ima play this for that someone special 1 day.

  26. L.... A....

    Didn't know about this song, until I looked for other songs that sounded like "Unbreakable". Probably was a little too young to listen to songs like this in the '70s.

  27. p.... p....

    This my shit

  28. L.... P....

    Miss Eryka Badu sampled this

    Shit Eddie killed this! How many times has it been sampled? Intimate Friends.......”An endless love , I found in you...”
    Now this how you ask for da draws with no strings attached! Them Temptations know they had some killers back then. Kendricks, Ruffin, then Dennis Edwards later! Youngsta better do their homework and “ketchup mustards”.

    Truth! ours is the music they copy and use. We were the originals, all music comes mostly from our Gen. Music today is not original just sampled to death. It's cool, but only if it's done well :D
