I DON'T NEED ANOTHER LOVE
(Brenda Sutton / Michael B. Sutton)

Dionne Warwick & The Spinners - 1989


WARWICK:
I don't need, I don't need another lover
SOLO SPINNER:
No, I don't need, I don't need another lover, no, no, no

SOLO SPINNER:
Well, it's alright (WARWICK: Yeah, yeah)
Ummmmmm-ummmmmmmmm, yeah
Tell me how you feel, Baby
WARWICK:
I feel good about you 
I  don't need another lover, no, no, no
SOLO SPINNER:
Woo-ooo-ooo-yeahhh
Baby, just let me tell you this

BOTH:
I'm satisfied in my heart
No looking back
I knew right from the start
I was on the right track
I searched for so long
For the right one
You know that I found
No greater love under the Sun
Oh yeah, others may come
And other lovers may go
ALL:
I don't need another love to call my own
And make sweet love to me
I don't need another love to belong
You're the love I need

BOTH:
Holding out (SPINNER: Well) for the best
I did the right thing
I knew if I could only pass the test (SPINNER: You did it)
True love it would bring
Now we stand (SPINNERS: We stand) so strong
Like an oak tree
One love in a lifetime (SPINNER: Yeah)
That will do it  for me
Oh yeah, others may come
And other lovers may go
ALL:
I don't need another lover to call my own 
And make sweet love to me
I don't need another lover to belong 
You're the love I need

(Instrumental Break)

BOTH:
Woo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oooo
Don't you know that storm clouds may rise
Strong winds may blow
Others may come
But they'll just have to go
SPINNERS:
Don't need another love to call my own, no, no, no
And make sweet love to me (WARWICK: Nooooooooooooh Baby)
I don't need another lover  (SPINNER: No, no, no) to belong (WARWICK: No, no, no)
You're the love I need  (SPINNER: I believe your love)
Without you there's no real love
To keep me strong
And love me endlessly
WARWICK:
I wanna be your fire
SPINNERS: 
Let me be your lover
WARWICK: 
Through the wind and the rain, through the dark of the day
SPINNERS:
You're the love I need 
SPINNER:
I knew if I could just pass the test
SPINNERS:
I don't need another lover
To call my own
SPINNER:
We would have a love affair so much better than the rest,  Ooooh,  Baby
SPINNERS:
And make sweet love to me...................................FADE


** Although the song is titled "I Don't Need Another Love",
they repeatedly sing the word "lover" throughout.
