    What's unbelievable is that this song was not a hit, nor the album it came from! This is a masterpiece and the album it came from and I've been saying so since the day it was released!

    Was blessed to attend an Al Jarreau concert in Houston’s Arena Theater. After the show, Al was gracious enough to sign a few vinyl albums, including this LP-L is for Lovers,, and pose for a picture with our group. I love him, this song and album. I will always treasure these mementos from that night. G is for Genius. R.I.P.

    Lyrics.
    Everyday you're walkin' by
    And I can see, how you shine
    But here I am alone with nothin' but a dream
    That you are mine
    Just exactly what I'll do
    I don't know, baby
    But I gotta find a way to reach you
    Tell me what I gotta do
    To get to your house
    Tell me where I gotta go
    To be with you
    Tell me what I gotta say
    To speak to your heart
    Tell me what I need
    To know tonight
    So everything will be alright (alright)
    Every night I wonder
    Just how it would feel
    Close to you
    I imagine that this fantasy is real
    You love me too
    I got to get from here to there
    Here and now, baby
    Open up your arms and let me love you
    Tell me what I gotta do
    To get to your house
    Tell me where I gotta go
    To be with you
    Tell me what I gotta say
    To speak to your heart
    Tell me what I need
    To know tonight
    So everything will be alright (ooh-ooh)
    I got to get from here to there
    Here and now, baby
    Open up your arms and let me love you
    Tell me what I gotta do
    To get to your house
    Tell me where I gotta go
    To be with you
    Tell me what I gotta say
    To speak to your heart
    Tell me what I need
    To know tonight
    Tell me what I gotta do
    What I gotta do to get to your house
    Tell me what I gotta give
    To be with you
    Tell me what I gotta give
    To get to your heart
    Tell me what I gotta give
    To be with you
    Tell me what I gotta give
    What I gotta say, I gotta go
    What I gotta do, gotta give
