Lyrics:

Daydreaming and I'm thinking of you

Daydreaming and I'm thinking of you

Daydreaming and I'm thinking of you

Daydreaming and I'm thinking of you

Look at my mind floating away

He's the kind of guy that would say

Hey, baby let's get away

Let's go some place, huh

Where I don't care

He's the kind of guy that you give your everything

And trust your heart, share all of your love

Till death do you part

I want to be what he wants

When he wants it and whenever he needs it

And when he's lonesome and feeling love starved

I'll be there to feed it

I'm loving' him a little bit more each day

Turns me right on when I hear him say

Hey, baby, let's get away

Let's go somewhere far

Baby can we

Where, I don't care

Hey baby let's get away

Let's go somewhere far

Baby can we

Where, I don't care

I want to be what he wants when he wants it

And whenever he needs it

And when he's lonesome and feeling love starved

I'll be there to feed it

Loving him a little bit more each day

It turns me right on when I hear him say

Hey, baby, let's get away

Let's go somewhere far

Baby can we

Where, I don't care

Hey baby let's get away

Let's go somewhere far

Baby can we

Where, I don't care

Hey, baby, let's get away

Let's go somewhere far

Baby can we

Where, I don't care

Hey baby let's get away

Let's go somewhere far

Baby can we

Where, I don't care

Daydreaming and I'm thinking of you

Daydreaming and I'm thinking of you

Daydreaming and I'm thinking of you

Daydreaming and I'm thinking of you

Look at my mind floating away

Day... dreaming

Day... dreaming

*******************

An icon of 20th and 21st century music, the voice of the civil rights movement, and the undisputed Queen of Soul—there is only one Aretha Franklin. In her incredible six-decade career, Aretha evolved from teenage gospel star to reigning pop and R&B diva, recording classics like “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman,” “Chain Of Fools”, “Think” (lyrics by Aretha Franklin), definitive versions of the songs “Respect” and “I Say a Little Prayer”, and global hits like “Freeway Of Love,” “I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me)”, and “A Rose Is Still A Rose.”

Altogether, 112 of her singles reached the charts, with 20 No. 1 R&B singles, the most ever by a female artist. She won 18 Grammy Awards (including the first eight trophies for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance) and, out of recognition for her for indelible contribution to American music and culture, received both the Presidential Medal Of Freedom and a Pulitzer Prize.
