Hi Berry,
|
This is Diane, this is Mary, Florence
|
And on behalf of everyone at Motown
|
We also wish to extend our congratulations
|
|
We couldn't get along without you
|
Just couldn't feel the song without you
|
Without your hand to guide our way
|
We'd all be lost somewhere in yesterday
|
We need your strength
|
We need your courage too
|
We need your constant faith to see us through
|
|
We couldn't get along without you
|
Just couldn't feel the song without you
|
You gave us hope when all our hope was gone
|
With wise and patient hands you kept hangin' on
|
When things were dark, You brought us shining light
|
Words cannot express the way we feel tonight
|
|
Berry, on behalf of the people at home
|
And the people all over this country
|
To whom you are a shining example
|
Our deepest congratulations
|
And of course our deepest love
|
We need you now more than before
|
Success is one thing, but you taught us much more
|
|
We couldn't get along without you
|
Just couldn't feel the song without you
|
The world should know the man inside
|
Who worked with courage and a deep sense of pride
|
Your strong and guiding hand has shown us the way
|
From those who love you most we just want to say
|
|
We couldn't get along without you
|
Just couldn't feel the song without you...
|
