THAT'S WHY (I LOVE YOU SO)

Jackie Wilson

(Gordy/Carlo/Gordy)

As transcribed from "The Very Best of Jackie Wilson"



(Ahh-ahh!)

(Ahh-ahh!)



The way you make me feel like I belong

The way you make me right when I am wrong

The way you sacrifice just for me

Just how lucky can a poor man be?



That is why...

(That's why I love you so)

That is why...

(That's why I love you so)

Don't you know, baby...

(That's why I love you so)



Yeah, yeah, yeah, I want the world to know.

The way you rub my back when I'm in pain.

The way you soothe me so I won't complain

And when you kiss me with your ruby red lips.

It thrills me so, I turn a back-over flip.



That is why...

(That's why I love you so)

Don't you know, baby...

(That's why I love you so)

That is why...

(That's why I love you so)



Yeah, yeah, yeah, I want the world to know.

If Shakespeare thought that Juliet

Really loved Romeo from the time they met,

He would blow his top if he could see

Just how you've been lovin' me.



The way you rub my back when I'm in pain

The way you soothe me so I won't complain

And when you kiss me with your ruby red lips.

It thrills me so, I turn a back-over flip.



That is why...

(That's why I love you so)

That is why...

(That's why I love you so)

C'mon now, baby...

(That's why I love you so)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I want to take it easy, baby...

(That's why I love you so)

Take it easy, honey...

(That's why I love you so)

Don't you know now...

(That's why I love you so)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I want the... one more time, now...

(That's why I love you so)

C'mon, c'mon, baby...

(That's why I love you so)
