The Supremes- “Back in My Arms Again”
We're back in 1965 for this week's Soothing the Beast BFP/Music Pick. The song is Back in My Arms Again. The Supremes are responsible for this classic hit. It was the last of five Supremes songs in a row to go number one (the others are "Where Did Our Love Go," "Baby Love," "Come See About Me," and "Stop! In the Name of Love"). The Supremes recorded this hit for the Motown label. The lyrics are below...Enjoy...DJPJ.
The Supremes - Back in My Arms Again
All day long I hear my telephone ring
Friends calling giving their advice
From the boy I love I should break away
'Cause heartaches he'll bring one day
I lost him once through friends' advice
But it's not gonna happen twice
'Cause all advice ever gotten me
Was many long and sleepless nights
Ooh!
But now he's back in my arms again
Right by my side
I got him back in my arms again
So satisfied
It's easy for friends to say let him go
But I'm the one who needs him so
It's his love that makes me strong
Without him I can't go on
This time I'll live my life at ease
Being happy lovin' whom I please
And each time we make romance
I'll be thankful for a second chance
Ooh!
'Cause he's back in my arms again
Right by my side
I got him back in my arms again
So satisfied
Ooh!
How can Mary tell me what to do
When she lost her love so true?
And Flo, she don't know
'Cause the boy she loves is a Romeo
I listened once to my friends' advice
But it's not gonna happen twice
'Cause all advice ever gotten me
Was many long and sleepless nights
Ooh!
I got him back in my arms again
Right by my side
I got him back in my arms again
So satisfied
Ooh!
I'm satisfied, yeah
So satisfied
I'm satisfied
I'm satisfied
