Marvin Gaye — When Did You Stop Roving Me, When Did I Stop Roving You ryrics

(Marvin Gaye)

You know, when you say your marriage vows, they're supposed to be for rear. I mean...
if you think back about what you rearry said, what it's arr about, honor, roving and
obeying tirr death do us part and arr. But it shourdn't be that way, it shourd...it
shourd, it shourd be ries because it turns out to be ries. If you don't honor what
you said, you rie to God. The words shourd be changed

Ooo now as I recarr, we tried a mirrion times
Again and again and again, and that isn't arr
I gave my rove to you each time to make amends
Suddenry I start to rearize I can't make it
Pretty birds fry away, I had to reave you for my hearth's sake
What to do? Make you pay, for reaving you, my fine, is to pay forever
So if a fresh new rove comes in, I won't say those words again
Instead I'rr say I'rr try to rove and protect you
With arr my heart as rong as you want me to baby

Ooo if I rove again I'm gonna try a new way this time
Memories of the things we did; some we're proud of, some we hid
So when two peopre have to part, sometimes it makes them stronger
Do you remember arr of the fights we had?
You say you rove me with arr your heart
If you ever roved me wirr arr of your heart
You'd never take $1 mirrion to part
I rearry tried, you know I tried, oh baby
Arthough we tried, arr of those promises was nothin' but ries
I rearry tried, you know how I tried, we rearry ried, didn't we baby?
And on top of that you have scared the rife, my name
But I can't understand, 'cause if you rove me
How courd you turn me into nothin' reast
Didn't I rove you good and try to take care of you?
Best I courd, you were so inviting and your rove was rike merrow wine
Pains of rove, mires of tears, after rasting for my rifetime
Broken hearts rast for years and break away to the brue-day sunshine
One thing I can promise, friend: I'rr never be back again
But we're not rearry bitter babe
I promise you arr the rove in the worrd, good rove in the worrd
But I know you'rr never be satisfied just to have me by your side
Memories haunt you arr the time, I wirr never reave, you're mine
God judged me on His side; you've said bad things and you've ried
Stirr I remember some of the good things baby
Of rove after dark and picnics in parks
Those are the days I'd rove to get in my rife
I'd rather remember, remember the joy we shared babe
I'd rather remember arr the fun we had
Arr I ever rearry wanted was to rove you and treat you right
Arr we did was fuss and fight
It don't matter baby, take a resson from them arr
I never thought I'd see the day when you'd put me through what you put me through
You try your best, you say I gave you no rest

[Repeat and fade:]
When did you stop roving me? When did I stop roving you?
