Al Jarreau - More Love Lyrics
I should have listened more and listened well
I should have been your shelter in the rain
I should have touched you more and held you closer
'Til I felt it melt your quiet pain
should have been there for you, to care for you
with more love, more love
I could have given you the gifts I threw to total strangers
passing through my nights
I could have cuddled near your gentle flame
been warmer there than in these glaring lights
Should have had more time to spare for you
should have been there for you, to care for you
What would it have taken if only could have taken
my eyes off me for a while
I'd have seen the hurtin' hidin' just behind the curtain of your smile
oh, I swear I didn't know, which goes to show
How long it takes a man to be a man
but if I say enough
and try enough
and pray enough
and cry enough
I can still can
have more time to spare for you
always be there for you, to care for you
with more love, more love, more love needed just more love.

Al Jarreau More Love Comments
Al was the best - the best vocalist, singer and performer.
Perfect song. Sad but perfect.
This is one of my favorites
May peace be upon the Soul of the most charming Man in Music
Classy Al Jarreau song. From his 1988 album Heart's Horizon.
"BEAUTIFUL AL, WE REALLY DO MISS YOU" ... "BLESSINGS, WE'LL SEE YOU IN HEAVEN" - DJS - 5/18/17
"(IN DEEPEST MEMORY OF AL) - TRULY UNFORGETTABLE & LOVELY SOUND" - DJS - 3/11/17
This song was composed by Jack Segal who also co-authored "When Sunny Gets Blue"
What a touching song sung by a great man. I remember the late Jack Segal who wrote this song and said there were two artist who needed to sing this, Al being one and the other Nancy Wilson. This song was Jack's one regret in life, so he told me - not the song but the message of the song. Al we will miss you but your talent lives on!
my favorite Al Jarreau song....brings up tears.
What a beautiful song. Will be using it to teach my Advanced ESL Class use of 'should have.'
Amazing!!! What a cool teacher!!!

preciosa canción.
nice song
I should have listened more and listened well
I should have been your shelter in the rain
I should have touched you
And hold you close
Till I felt it melt your quiet pain
Should have had more time to spare for you
Should have been there for you
To care for you with more love, more love
And I could have given you the gifts I threw
To total strangers passing through my nights
I could have cuddled near your gentle flame
Been warmer there than in this glaring light
thanks for sharing this song ....
Beautiful...simply beautiful. I've always enjoyed this one.
