I'm not sure, could this be it?

Your Love Keeps Liftin Me Higher - Bette Midler

Mm, your love is lifting me higher

than I ever been lifted before.

Ooh, baby, keep it up, sweet baby.

Quench my desire,

and I'll be at your side forever more.

'Cause your love is liftin' me higher and higher.

Your love keeps liftin' me, oh, higher, higher.

Now once I was down-hearted,

and disappointment was my closest friend.

But then you came,

and he soon departed.

And you know I never seen,

I haven't seen his face again!

Your love is liftin' me

higher, higher, higher, higher.

Your love is liftin' me

higher, higher, higher and higher.

Your love keeps liftin' me,

keeps on liftin' me.

Your love keeps liftin' me

higher, higher.

Your love keeps liftin' me,

keeps on liftin' me.

Your love keeps liftin' me

higher, higher.

So glad I finally found you, babe.

You're the best for these old arms.

With those sweet, sweet lovin' arms around me,

I tell you I don't need,

I don't need,

I-oh-I don't need no disguise, no!

Your love is liftin' me,

keeps on liftin' me.

Your love keeps liftin' me

higher, higher.

Your love keeps liftin' me,

keeps on liftin' me.

Your love keeps liftin' me

higher, higher.

Your love is liftin' me,

whoa, higher, higher, higher, higher,

higher, higher, higher, higher.

Gettin' higher, gettin' higher,

gettin' higher, gettin' higher.

You lift me, you take me

higher and higher.

Higher, higher, higher, higher!

Keeps on liftin' me.

Keeps on liftin' me.

Keeps on liftin' me.

Keeps on liftin' me.

Higher, higher, oh, higher, higher,

higher, higher, higher, higher,

higher, higher, higher,

higher and higher

I think Sara nailed it, but menamc did say "male" voice, so I wonder if you are thinking of the Higher And Higher version by Jackie Wilson (incidently it was Written by Carl Smith, Gary Jackson and Raynard Miner)

This version is on the soundtrack for Disney's The Kid - 2000, one of my very favorite films, it's GREAT!!

Thanks everyone for your help...but that's not the song....I wish it was...This has been driving me crazy for DAYS =:P!!! Anyway, I'll post it another time worded another way....

"Till I get to your lovin arms, your lovin arms, your lovin arms, your sweet, sweet lovin arms..."

(Repeat)

It is a male singer, and there aren't that many instruments in the song...It is a very slow song. Someone said that the first lyrics of the song are:

"Left her this morning and most of last night...."

I don't know...I can't remember!!!

Anyway, thanks again to those of you who posted me back. Anymore help from anyone else would be GREAT!!! :coolio:

I'm gonna take a long shot and guess C Note's song Wait Till I Get Home. If this isn't the song then maybe the lyrics will help you remember more. My gut tells me this isn't the one but I tried. :P

Wait till I get home to that sweet, sweet lovin'

Gonna get your love, gonna get it, just wait till I get home

Wait till I get home to that sweet, sweet lovin'

Your gonna get you love, gonna get it.

Girl I want to shower you with my love, yeah baby just wait till I get home.

Once I get you in my arms, you'll never get enough.

I need your huggin' and your kissin', baby you are the one I've been missing.

Ohh, When I get home I'm gonna do you good, treat you like a real man should.

When I get home.

Wait till I get home to that sweet, sweet lovin'

Gonna get your love, gonna get it, just wait till I get home

Wait till I get home to that sweet, sweet lovin'

Your gonna get you love, gonna get it. (Bring it on home daddy)

Anything you want baby I will do for you you you

(anything you want baby) just wait till I get home.

When it's time for makin' love

We'll rock the whole night through

All I want to do.(that's right)

Baby, I need your love and affection, yeah

Get things movin' in the right direction, Huh-oh.

Six O'clock Time to make love.

Nine O'clock take a lil breather, I just can't wait.

Damn I can't wait to see her. When I get home.

Wait till I get home to that sweet, sweet lovin' ooh baby. gonna get it,

Soon as I get home.

Wait till I get home to that sweet, sweet lovin'

I give good love, gonna get it.

Wait till I get home.

Wait till I get home, gonna love you all night long

And you'll never be alone.

Just wait till I get home, Wait till I get home.

Wait till I get home, gonna love you all night long

Gonna move your body, gonna move your body,

Gonna feel it all night long. yeah-ooh

Just wait till I get home, gonna get your love

There's no one above you

Still not the right one!! But I really appreicate all of your feedback. It's a slow rock song, if that helps any. It was played on light rock stations in the early/late 90s. Male singer. Kinda like Bruce Springsteen. Again, thanks for your help!! :thumbsup:

Left her this morning and most of last night

I've been taking tally on the last years of my life.

I've been pretty righteous, but God only knows

A couple of calls were not even close

But at least my own discresion is sweeter than most

Ah those loving arms.....

Those sweet, sweet, loving arms

I count the "bird count the girl (sorry, I don't know what he's saying here)"

I used to stumble back when I was younger

And I'm still stumbling now it's a lot more fun

And I'm falling, I'm falling

Feel to close to the sun

To get to your loving arms, your loving arms

Your loving arms your sweet, sweet, loving arms

To get to your

chorus:

loving arms, your loving arms

Your loving arms your sweet, sweet, loving arms

verse2

Empty pockets, motel beds

Airline tickets worth better left unsaid

Strange kisses (I don't know the next few words)

What I'm missing were sure now known

Everyday another mountain

Another mountain to climb

To get to your

(chorus)

Bridge:

And the world could be perfect

Even if we are not

If everything is forgiven

Even if not forgot

And when the morning comes a breakin'

And I call out your name

My heart will be running

Oh running to get to your

(chorus and repeat)

Artist: Darden Smith

Album: Little Victories

Year: 1993

I was searching for the same exact song for over a year and decided to look it up this past Tuesday on the computer @ Borders, and came across Darden Smith, so I went to iTunes to purchase the song, and yep, it was it! I hope this helps you a lot.

I stand corrected. Here are the correct lyrics:

Half of this morning and most of last night

I've been taking tally on the last years of my life

I've been pretty righteous, but God only knows

A couple of calls were not even close

At least my indiscretions were sweeter than most

Oh, those loving arms

those sweet, sweet, loving arms

Count the bad, count the good

And all I wouldn't change even if I could

I used to stumble back when I was young

And I'm still stumbling but now it's a lot more fun

And I'm falling, I'm falling, I flew too close to the sun

To get to your

Chorus:

Loving arms, your loving arms, your loving arms, your sweet, sweet loving arms

To get to your loving arms, your loving arms, your loving arms, your sweet, sweet loving arms

Empty pockets, motel beds

Airline tickets, words better left unsaid

Strange kisses get the ghost

And what I miss is what she'll never know

Everyday another mountain, another mountain to climb

to get to your...

(chorus)

And the world could be perfect

Even if we are not

If everything is forgiven

Even if not forgot

And when the morning comes breaking

And I call out your name

My heart will be running, oh running to get to your

(chorus, and repeat)

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I posted this years ago and was never able to find out the name/artist, until today! I happened to Google it again, you guys are the best! Thank you! I told my boyfriend that all I wanted for Christmas was the name of the song - of course he is too lazy to do this for me but I am so glad I checked again!

MERRY CHRISTMAS :rockon: :happybanana:
