Ronnie Dyson - I Think I'll Tell Her

Each of us has a story to tell about our favorite songs. A good friend of mine shared a story that goes with this song which he said he will never forget...

One day, he was browsing some records and cds in a record store when he overheard a woman talking to the store clerk asking for a certain song. She began to sing part of the lyrics which, fortunately, my friend knows. He approached the counter and told them that the title of the song was "I Think I'll Tell Her" by Ronnie Dyson. The woman was so ecstatic that she kissed him all over his cheeks. My friend was startled but was also as happy not only because he was able to help the woman but also of the kisses he received from her ... hahaha.

This song is about a married man who fell in love with another woman.

Each night it seems I

Toss and turn till morning's light

Thinking about you

Lord's so hard sometimes it hurts

Got to find the courage deep within myself

To tell her I'm in love with someone else

I 'll hurt her I know

But we've got to live for ourselves

I think I'll tell her

I think I'll tell her

I think I'll tell her

What's on my mind, my mind

Strange how love changes

When I married her  I swore

I could not be tempted

By another woman's lure

'bout a year ago we met

You touched my hand

Lord above you know it wasn't planned 

We fell in love now the one I love will be hurt

I think I'll tell her

I think I'll tell her

I think I'll tell her

What's on my mind, my mind

'bout a year ago we met

You touched my hand

Lord above you know it wasn't planned 

We fell in love now the one I love will be hurt

I think I'll tell her

I think I'll tell her

I think I'll tell her

What's on my mind, my mind ...

The Moody Blues - Nights In White Satin

Nights in white satin, never reaching the end,

Letters I've written, never meaning to send.

Beauty I'd always missed with these eyes before.

Just what the truth is, I can't say anymore.

'Cos I love you, yes I love you, oh how I love you.

Gazing at people, some hand in hand,

Just what I'm going through they can't understand.

Some try to tell me, thoughts they cannot defend,

Just what you want to be, you will be in the end.

And I love you, yes I love you,

Oh how I love you, oh how I love you.

Nights in white satin, never reaching the end,

Letters I've written, never meaning to send.

Beauty I've always missed, with these eyes before.

Just what the truth is, I can't say anymore.

'Cos I love you, yes I love you,

Oh how I love you, oh how I love you.

'Cos I love you, yes I love you,

Oh how I love you, oh how I love you.

Breath deep

The gathering gloom

Watch lights fade

From every room

Bedsitter people

Look back and lament

Another day's useless

Energy spent

Impassioned lovers

Wrestle as one

Lonely man cries for love

And has none

New mother picks up

And suckles her son

Senior citizens

Wish they were young

Cold hearted orb

That rules the night

Removes the colours

From our sight

Red is gray and

Yellow white

But we decide

Which is right

And

Which is an Illusion
