    Lyrics
    Let me be the one
    You give your love to
    Let me be the one
    You give your love to
    I hear your records on the radio
    I see you talking on the late, late show
    Every girl wants to be your friend
    Don't you know you're always on my mind
    Oh, how I've missed you since you hit the big time
    Oh, I'm hurting... I just can't pretend
    We used to be together
    Makin' dreams
    Makin' plans
    But you left that world behind
    Now I'm askin' you... won't you
    Let me be the one
    (Let me be)
    You give your love to
    (The love you need, baby)
    Let me be the one
    (Let me be)
    You give your love to
    (The one that turns your lovin' on)
    I see the sadness in your eyes
    Don't you get lonely baby, sometimes
    Lonely for the love that we had
    I'll be waiting when the day comes
    When you need somebody won't you let me be the one
    Come to me
    Put yourself in my hands
    We used to be together
    Makin' dreams
    Makin' plans
    But you left that world behind
    Now I'm askin' you... won't you
    Let me be the one
    (Let me be)
    You give your love to
    (The one you need, baby)
    Let me be the one
    (Let me be)
    You give your love to
    (The one that turns your lovin' on)

    How bad does it feel that you have to return to 30 years ago to feel a
    sense of refreshing wholesome music. This group was so good! You didn't
    worry your kids were being corrupted by bad influence with this
    wonderful group... I miss them.

    FIVE STAR just fully proves you can't judge a book by its cover. By looking at them, I thought they were just a group of friends. Nope. They're siblings from the UK!! Stedman is eldest. Doris is 2nd. Lorraine is 3rd. Deniece is 4th and Delroy is the youngest. Their vocals and dance moves are far and away awesome!

    They are such an unappreciated group and highly influential (certainly the first album). They along with Hot Chocolate and Imagination as well as other numerous British soul acts around that period changed the RnB scene forever. Its a shame they took a different direction in their career later on for their second and third album rather than keeping with soul music that first brought them fame not just here but in America.
