Answer
Dear Jessica,

That would be ONLY YOU by the COMMODORES from their 1983 album COMMODORES 13, their first album without their acknowledged leader, LIONEL RICHIE. The song went to No. 54 in Billboard's Hot 100 Charts on November 19, 1983. Here's its lyrics:

ONLY YOU / COMMODORES

When was the last time I said
I love you
I find it hard to say
But I do

When was the last time I said
I need you
I've kept it to myself
Much too long
(It's been too long, it's been too long)

In all my life
I've never known anyone like you
I love you, I love you
Only you

I've been in love before
I didn't think I could love anymore
But there you were with love
In your heart for me

I can feel it when we kiss
I can tell when we touch
That the magic of love
Was meant for you and me
(For you and me, for you and me)

In all my life
I've never had a love so true
I love you, I love you
Only you (Only you)

I know it when we touch

Oh, I know if I had the power
To make this song come true
It would be for me
To build my life with only you

Maraming salamat po!!

I can answer just about everything from the 80`s, rock, pop, trivias, artist infos, Billboard chart positions, albums, etc. But songs that became hit in the Philippines and OPM songs are my expertise. I grew on 80`s music and still listening to 80`s music as it is the best era in music history for me. My friends call me the walking encyclopedia of 80`s music. I got books & collections of CDs, all from the 80`s.

Experience

Let's just say music is my life and my source is a lifetime of knowledge about 80's music and then some.
