We’ll Be Satisfied Lyrics
[Verse 1: Marvin Gaye, Tammi Terrell, Both]
Ooh, when I can give you the stars in the sky
And all of the things your heart desires
When I can place the world at your feet
And satisfy your every need
And when I can cry and not be sad
But cry because you made me glad
When I can smile and make you know
Without my saying a word, I love you so
You'll be forever mine, and I'll be satisfied
Oh baby (Oh baby), satisfied
[Verse 2: Marvin Gaye, Tammi Terrell, Both]
Oh, when you can give to me a song
That my heart can sing all day long
When you can set my soul on fire
And make me your one and only desire
And whеn I can prove to you that I care
That I'm worthy of your love to sharе
When I can say to myself
That you love me and nobody else
Everything will be fine, I'll be satisfied
Oh baby (Oh darling), oh
Oh baby (Oh baby)
[Verse 3: Marvin Gaye, Tammi Terrell, Both]
When I have done my very best
To fill your life with happiness
Our two hearts will beat as one
We'll only part when life is done
And when I can take you in my arms
And kiss your pretty lips from dusk 'til dawn
Heaven will know that I won't let you go
And you'll be mine now and forevermore
I'll be right by your side, I'll be satisfied
Ooh, when I can give you the stars in the sky
And all of the things your heart desires
When I can place the world at your feet
And satisfy your every need
And when I can cry and not be sad
But cry because you made me glad
When I can smile and make you know
Without my saying a word, I love you so
You'll be forever mine, and I'll be satisfied
Oh baby (Oh baby), satisfied
[Verse 2: Marvin Gaye, Tammi Terrell, Both]
Oh, when you can give to me a song
That my heart can sing all day long
When you can set my soul on fire
And make me your one and only desire
And whеn I can prove to you that I care
That I'm worthy of your love to sharе
When I can say to myself
That you love me and nobody else
Everything will be fine, I'll be satisfied
Oh baby (Oh darling), oh
Oh baby (Oh baby)
[Verse 3: Marvin Gaye, Tammi Terrell, Both]
When I have done my very best
To fill your life with happiness
Our two hearts will beat as one
We'll only part when life is done
And when I can take you in my arms
And kiss your pretty lips from dusk 'til dawn
Heaven will know that I won't let you go
And you'll be mine now and forevermore
I'll be right by your side, I'll be satisfied
[Outro: Marvin Gaye, Tammi Terrell, Both]

I, I, I (Gotta, gotta have it)
I, I, I (Gotta, gotta have it)
Oh baby (Oh darling)
Satisfied, uh-huh (I gotta, gotta have it)
I want you, baby (All of your love now)
All of my life (Ooh baby)
I want more (Satisfaction)
I, I, I (Gotta, gotta have it)
I, I, I (Gotta, gotta have it)
