The Temptations - You're My Everything

YouTube removed this version, i'm guessing from corporate suits pressure. Please YouTube and the suits i brought it back to COMMENT on how great this song is with no expecations of anything. Yes, I am CRITICIZING them for their actions but also am TEACHING, I hope, that music should not be censored by greed in this forum of us little people and "et al".

This song was written by Roger Penzabene as a testament to his love for his wife. After learning of her cheating he was heartbroken. He then wrote "I Wish It Would Rain' describing his pain, then finally "I Could Never Love Another" to finish the trilogy of how he felt.

Unable to handle the extreme pain and unwilling to leave his wife, he wrote the last two songs as personal statements to her, publicizing the pain she caused him. After both songs were completed and recorded, tragically Roger committed suicide.

Lyrics:

You surely must know magic girl
Cause you changed my life
It was dull and ordinary
But you make it sunny and bright

Now, I was blessed the day I found you
Gonna build my whole world around you
You're everything good girl and you're all that matters to me

When my way was dark and troubles were near
Your love provided the light so I could see girl
Just knowin your love was near when times were bad
Kept the world from closin in on me girl

I was blessed the day I found you
Gonna build my whole world around you
You're everything good girl and you're all that matters to me

Baby, you're part of every thought I think each day
Your name is in every phrase my lips sing
Every dream I dream is about you
Honey I can't live without you

Baby (baby), baby (baby), baby
You're my everything, you're my everything, yes you are
(Don't you know you're my everything)

You're the girl I sing about in every love song I sing
(You're my everything)
You're my winter baby, my summer, my fall and spring
(You're my everything)

Now I was blessed the day I found you
Gonna build my whole world around you
You're everything good girl and you're all that matters to me
You're my everything, you're my everything, yes you are
(Don't you know you're my everything)
You're my everything, you're my everything
(Don't you know you're my everything)
You're my everything, you're my everything

(When my way was dark and troubles were near, your love provided a light so I could see girl.
Just knowing your love was near, times that were there kept the world
from closin in on me girl.

This was the apex of group music and showmanship. But I got way too tired of David Ruffin trying to place himself above the group.
