Please Send Me Someone to Love - Ruth Brown

Heaven please send to all mankind

Understanding and peace of mind

But, if it’s not asking too much

Please send me someone to love

Show all the world how to get along

Peace will enter when hate is gone

But, if it’s not asking too much

Please send me someone to love

I lay awake night and ponder world troubles

My answer is always the same

That unless men put an end to all of this

Hate will put the world in a flame, (oh) what a shame

Just because I’m in misery

I’m not begging for no sympathy

But if it’s not asking too much

Just send me someone to love

Heaven please send to all mankind

Understanding and peace of mind

But if it’s not asking too much

Please send me someone to love

Learn to love me or leave me, either one you wanna do

Learn to love me or leave me, either one you wanna do

Because strange things are happenin'

Babe, an' somethin' might happen to you

If you know you don’t love me, why don’t you let me be?

If you know you don’t love me, why don’t you let me be?

Because it’s better to be without you, then to live on in misery

Hey

Midnight find me cryin', daylight find me cryin', too

Midnight find me cryin', daylight find me cryin', too

You better change your ways pretty baby or somethin' might happen to you
