Barry White - Can't Get Enough (1974) - 05. Oh Love, Well We Finally Made It

Track 5 - Oh Love, Well We Finally Made It

Lyrics:

Hey, you know I don't, I don't really give a damn
If it would have took forever
I would have waited baby
And waited,
And waited,
And waited...

I, Oh yea, um, baby love

I knew that everthing will be alright
It had to work out sweet, my love at night
Ah, the two of us in love together
Henceforth, now and forever
We've only just begun to feel the fire grow
Our light of love will burn and let the people know
That we intend to make it, when trouble comes, we'll shake it
My love for you can no one take it, oh lord, I just got to say it

Oh love, well we finally made it, my, oh, my
Ah, you don't know how long I've waited
Ooh, my love, well, we finally made it
My, oh, my, girl you don't know
How long I've waited.

Ooh love, ah, my love, my, my
My love, my, my
Ooh love,
What would I do without you?

Nothing in this world could stop us know
We're going to make it, yeah, someway, somehow
So easy, close to you and me
Let's keep our love happy and free
Free from all the hurt and pain, oh, I gotta say it again

Ooh love, well, we finally made it, girl, my, oh, my
Ah, you don't know how long I've waited
Ooh love, well, we finally made it
Girl, my, oh, my, ah, you don't know
Girl, you don't know how long I've waited.

Oh love, well we finally made it, my, oh, my
Ah, you don't know how long I've waited
Ooh, my love, well, we finally made it
My, oh, my, girl you don't know
How long I've waited.

Ooh love, my, oh, my
Ooh love, my, oh, my
Ooh love, my, oh, my

@musiclover59 - This turned out to be the only song that was recorded by both Love Unlimited and Barry White.

[wmbrown6]

Smoke consisted of Jackie Lee (a.k.a "Earl" of Bob & Earl) and Tracey Andrews; this was their only known record. The B-side, "Love Let's Be Happy Now," was produced by Bob Relf (the other half of the Bob & Earl duo); amazingly, both sides were arranged by White and Gene Page, though only the "Oh Love" side was produced by White.

This was actually the third recording of this tune. First was by Smoke (Mo-Soul 1971, 1971); the second, using the same instrumental backing track, by Love Unlimited (single 20th Century TC-2025 and on album "Under the Influence of Love Unlimited, T-414, 1973); and then this, which was done all anew. From what I could tell, this was also recorded at the same time as the recording of the vocal version of "Love's Theme" by Love Unlimited as on their "In Heat" LP (T-443).

GREAT SONG!!!! This is one of those songs that the lyrics & music really touch your heart & soul and begs the question does true love really exist?
