All About the Music

Sam Cooke.
Okay, I know he's a heartthrob. But he has passed several years ago and left us a legacy of great songs, like "Twisting The Night Away",  "Only Sixteen",  "Bring It On Home To Me",  "Summertime",  "Chain Gang", and many more. For this Valentine's season we've selected his one song that mostly celebrates this event. Believe me, his voice is just as smooth as his looks. Enjoy.
Cupid

Cupid, draw back your bow
And let your arrow go
Straight to my lover's heart for me, for me 
Cupid, please hear my cry
And let your arrow fly
Straight to my lover's heart for me

Now, I don't mean to bother you
But I'm in distress
There's a danger of me losing all of my happiness
For I love a girl who doesn't know I exist
And this you can fix

So Cupid, draw back your bow
And let your arrow go
Straight to my lover's heart for me, nobody but me
Cupid please hear my cry
And let your arrow fly
Straight to my lover's heart for me

Now, Cupid, if your arrow make her love strong for me
I promise I will love her until eternity
I know between the two of us your heart you can steal
Help me if you will

So Cupid, draw back your bow
And let your arrow go
Straight to my lover's heart for me
Cupid please hear my cry 
And let your arrow fly
Straight to my lover's heart for me

Now, Cupid
Don't you hear me calling you?
I need you
Cupid, help me, I need you
Cupid don't fail me 'cause I need you.
