Wondering Who

 The concluding piece to The Jacksons LP Triumph. This time around, Michael's eldest brother Jackie takes the commanding lead. Yet you can still make out Michael doing his signature ab-libs.
Written by Randy and Jackie.

Lyrics

I’ve got you wondering who
Look what you put me through
No more planning to start anew
I’ve got you wondering who

I come to you to love you once again
But you never were around
How can you say that we were more than friends
When there’s no love to be found
’Cause in my mind
I knew that you weren’t true
From time to time
Look what you put me through

I thought that you and I had seen the light
During the first time we met
Seem to be a sudden change in life
Is there a need for someone else
’Cause in my mind
I knew that you weren’t true
From time to time
Look what you put me through

Welcome to the night
(Stop holding on, start being strong)
Stayed up all night
(Stop holding on, ’cause love is gone)
Welcome to the night
(Stop holding on, start being strong)
Stayed up all night
(Baby, you’ve got to go)

I’ve got you wondering who
Look what you put me through
No more planning to start anew
I’ve got you wondering who

I went along
Thought it would be alright
Maybe it happened all too fast
Lots of torrid danger hampered me
Left me crying all the time

’Cause in my mind
I knew that you weren’t true
From time to time
Look what you put me through

Welcome to the night
(Stop holding on, start being strong)
Stayed up all night
(Stop holding on, ’cause love is gone)
Welcome to the night
(Stop holding on, start being strong)
Stayed up all night
(Stop holding on, ’cause love is gone)

(Stop holding on, start being strong)
Love is gone
(Stop holding on, ’cause love is gone)
Love is gone
(Stop holding on, start being strong)
Love is gone
(Stop holding on, start being strong)
Love is gone
(Stop holding on, ’cause love is gone)
Love is gone
(Stop holding on, start being strong)
Love is gone
(Baby, you’ve got to go)

Torture

Lyrics

It was on the street so evil,
so bad that even hell disowned it.
Every single step was trouble
for the fool who stumbled on it.
Eyes within the dark were watchin'
I felt that sudden chill of danger.
Something told me to keep on walkin'
told me I should not have gone there.

Baby, because you cut me like a knife
without your love in my life.
I'm out, I'm walkin' the night
'cause I just can't stop this feelin'.
It's torture, it's torture, it's torture.

She was up a stair to nowhere.
A room forever I'll remember.
She said as though I should have known her,
Tell me, what's your pain or pleasure?
Every little thing you find here
is simply for the thrill you're after.
Loneliness or hearts on fire.
I am here to serve all masters.

She said Reality is a knife
when there's no love in your life.
Unmerciful is the night
when you just can't stop this feelin'.
It's torture, it's torture, it's torture.

And I still can't find the meaning
of the face I keep on seeing.
Was she real or am I dreaming?
Did the sound of your name turn a wheel,
strike a flame in me?

Baby, because you cut me like a knife
without your love in my life.
I'm out, I'm walkin' the night
and I just can't stop this feeling.
It's torture, it's torture, it's torture.

She said Reality is a knife
when there's no love in your life.
Unmerciful is the night
when you just can't stop this feelin'.
It's torture, it's torture, it's torture.
