I Can't Be Loved Lyrics

Chaka Khan I Can't Be Loved

I've been thinking 'bout you, my baby
And I wonder where you are tonight
I'm tryin' to live without you, it's crazy
'Cause no one else can light my fire

More than a few
Have been willing to do just what I wanted
But as hard as they try
It just ain't right, oh baby

I can't be loved
By anyone but you, oh baby, baby
It's not enough
There ain't no substitute for you

I can't be loved
By anyone but you
I just can't live without your love

My emotions, baby, are showing
No one seems to understand
This commotion, darlin', keeps growing
I'm afraid it's getting out of hand

Putting aside
All the pain and the pride
And I still want you
But I need you tonight, certainly

I can't be loved
By anyone but you, oh pretty baby
It's not enough
There ain't no substitute for you, oh baby

I can't be loved
Anyone but you
Ain't no substitute for you
It's not enough
No one else will do

It ain't no lie
There ain't no substitute for you

I can't be loved
Can't be loved

Can't be loved
There ain't no chance for new romance
Can't be loved
It ain't, just ain't love with someone else
It just ain't

Putting aside
All the pain and the pride
And I still want you
And I need you tonight

I can't be loved
By nobody else but you
I can't be loved
No one but you
There ain't no substitute for you, baby
'Cos I love you boy

I can't be loved
By nobody, nobody, nobody else but you
It's not enough
Can't be loved, it can't be loved, can't be loved

I can't be loved
It's not enough
I can't be loved
It's not enough
I can't be loved
