"my world was dark but you brought me to the light”
i get so tired of heart ache and stress so i reach out to you
for your tenderness
cause you got that something that it’s all about and now that
you’re here i can’t live without
chorus:
my world is brighter when i’m with you
it takes me away
without your light girl
what would i do
i need my baby
the world can be so cold beating you down
you try to reach higher you’re back on the ground
but it’s never over and i’m never through
cause i got you baby and i’m so into
chorus:
my world is brighter when i’m with you
it takes me away
without your light girl
what would i do
i need my baby
i’m gone so far
"from darkness to the light’
i need my baby
you brighten my life girl
i need my baby
from darkness to light girl
i need my baby
you make it alright girl
i need my baby
you brighten my life girl
Like so many others, this came like a bolt out of the blue and, even though it's well before payday, I had to have this astonishing album on vinyl to prove it exists. The feel of the tunes makes me feel like the Impressions do, Curtis Mayfield, the big spaces and instinctive horns and stuff drifting in and out. Great grooves and I can see lots of ghosts nodding along to this with big smiles on their faces. At last! Anthony Cottrell
