Awards & Special Performances > The 3rd Annual VH1 Honors

It is morning in a Manhattan disco, and Michael Jackson — who owns perhaps the most scrutinized face in America — is smiling warily for a roomful of strangers. Jackson has come to New York for two weeks of near–continuous hubbub, which will include three sold–out concerts at Madison Square Garden and highly anticipated appearances on the thirtieth annual Grammy Awards program (his first televisie performance since the 1983 Motown 25 show) and at a benefit avondeten, diner for the United Negro College Fund. This morning, though, he is performing the one chore that he reportedly dreads most —...

Chorus
Tell the angels no, I don't wanna leave my baby alone
I don't want nobody else to hold u
That's a chance I'll take
Baby I'll stay, Heaven can wait
No, if the angels took me from this earth
I would tell them bring me back to her
It's a chance I'll take, maybe I'll stay
Heaven can wait
You're beautiful

Each moment spent with u is simply wonderful
This love I have for u girl it's incredible
And I don't know what I'd do, if I can't be with u
The world could not go on so every night I pray
If the Lord should come for me before I wake
I wouldn't wanna go if I can't see your face, can't...

Another dag has gone
I'm still all alone
How could this be
You're not here with me
You never zei goodbye
Someone tell me why
Did u have to go
And leave my world so cold

Everyday I sit and ask myself
How did love slip away
Something whispers in my ear and says
That u are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay

But u are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart
But u are not alone

'Lone, 'lone
Why, 'lone

Just the other night
I thought I heard u cry
Asking me to come
And hold u in my arms
I can hear your prayers
Your burdens I will bear...

I don't need no dreams when
I'm door your side
Every moment takes me to
paradise
Darlin', let me hold you
Warm u in my arms and melt
your fears away
Show u all the magic that a
perfect love can make
I need u night and day

So baby, be mine (baby, you
gotta be mine)
And girl I'll give u all I got
to give
So baby, be my girl (all the
time)
And we can share this ecstasy
As long as we believe in love

I won't give u reason to
change your mind
(I guess it's still u thrill me,
baby, be mine)
You are all the future that I
desire
Girl, I need to hold you
Share my feelings in the heat of
love's embrace
Show u all the...
