BABY I'LL GIVE IT TO YOU
(lyrics by Lana Bogan; music by James Seals, 1973 or 1974)
From the album SUDAN VILLAGE (1976).
You say you wanna know what you gotta do,
To make me forget what you put me through.
So you want a chance to prove, lovin' me is everything to you.
Chorus: Baby, I'll give it to you. Baby, I'll give it to you.
No one can make me feel like you do.
Baby, I'll give it to you.
I just want you to know, I know I done you wrong.
When I wasn't here the nights were so long.
And I wanted you so, but oh,
Now I'm back again and I'm beggin' you please.
(chorus)
You gotta hold me closer than you did before.
And always be there so I'll know for sure.
I really, really love you and I'm here to stay.
But I promise you tomorrow's gonna be a better day.
Well, that's all we gotta do then baby I'll know.
I'll be lovin' you, and we can start over.
(chorus)

PUT YOUR LOVE IN MY HANDS
(lyrics by Lana Bogan; music by Walter Heath, 1975)
From the album SUDAN VILLAGE (1976).
Look around your life. Are you satisfied with what you are?
Don't you think that you'd be happier with me? Look inside yourself.
Won't you take a searching moment to see,
If you might be much better off with me?
Put your love in my hands. Put your love in my hands.
Don't put off all the plans that I have made for you and me.
Put your love in my hands. Just put your love in my hands.
Unless you try it you can't know how good it will be.
Look today on the face. Forget the time they left you alone.
And take a love that you can call your own.
Put your love in my hands. Put your love in my hands.
With just a little pain and a little grief, what more can you need?
Put your love in my hands. Just put your love in my hands.
And I promise you'll be happier and better off with me, better off with me.
Put your love in my hands. Just put your love in my hands.
With just a little pain and a little grief, what more can you need?
Put your love in my hands. Just put your love in my hands.
And I promise you'll be happier. Put your love, love put your love in my hands.
