美國影歌天后［芭芭拉．史翠珊］──軟式搖滾──［Sweet Inspiration ／Where You Lead＊甜蜜靈感／你往何方］

I need your sweet inspiration

I need you here on my mind

Every hour of the day

Without your sweet inspiration

The lonely hours of the night

Just dont go my way

Wanting you the way I do

I only want to be with you

And I would go to the ends of the earth

Cause darling, to me thats what youre worth

Where you lead, I will follow

Anywhere you tell me to

If you need, need me to be with you

I will follow where you lead

If youre out on the road

Feelin lonely and oh so cold

All you gotta do is call my name

And Ill be there on the next train

Where you lead I will follow

Anywhere you tell me to

If you need, need me to be with you

I will follow where you lead

Id always wanted a real home

With flowers on the windowsill

But if you want to leave in New York City

Honey, you know I will

Yes I will

Yes I will

I never thought I could get satisfaction

From just one man

If anyone can keep me happy

Oh, youre the one who can

Im gonna follow where you lead me

Im gonna follow where you lead me

I need your sweet inspiration

I need you here on my mind

Every hour of the day

Without your sweet inspiration

The lonely hours of the night

Just dont go my way

Oh, a woman in love needs sweet inspiration

And honey thats all I ask, you know

Thats all I ask from you

I gotta have your sweet inspiration

You know there just aint no tellin

What a satisfied woman might do

The way you call me baby, baby (such a sweet inspiration)

The way you call me darlin, darlin (sets my heart a skating)

And if Im out in the rain, baby (and in a bad situation)

You know I just look back in my mind

And there I find your sweet, sweet inspiration

Inspiration, oh what a power

And a bucket of power every hour of the day

I need your sweet inspiration

To go on livin, to keep on givin this way

Wanting you the way I do (sweet, sweet)

Only want to be with you (sweet, sweet)

Gonna follow where you lead (sweet, sweet)

Baby youre just what I need

Your sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet inspiration

And honey thats all I ask, you know

Thats all I ask from you

I gotta have your sweet inspiration

You know there just aint no telling

What a satisfied woman can do

You are my sweet inspiration
