You Send Me // Sam Cooke // cover by Lady Rose
We absolutely love Sam Cooke, his music was there at the very beginning of our journey together as the Lady Rose Duo and will continue to be a huge influence on us both.
Whilst "You Send Me" is a song written and originally recorded by the legendary Soul artist Sam Cooke and released as a single in 1957.

Soul singer #rodstewart who cited Sam Cooke as a major influence released "You Send Me" as part of a medley with "Bring It On Home to Me" and charted it on the UK Singles Chart at No. 7.
I just hope #ladyrose #coversong #yousendme has done #samcooke justice.

Lyrics.
Darling you send me
I know you send me
Darling you send me
Honest you do, honest you do
Honest you do, whoa
You thrill me
I know you, you, you thrill me
Darling you, you, you, you thrill me
Honest you do
At first I thought it was infatuation
But wooh, it's lasted so long
Now I find myself wanting
To marry you and take you home, woah
You, you, you, you send me
I know you send me
I know you send me
Honest you do
Whoa, whenever I'm with you
I know, I know, I know when I'm near you
Mmm hmm, mmm hmm, honest you do, honest you do
Whoa, I know
I know, I know, I know, when you hold me
Whoa, whenever you kiss me
Mmm hmm, mmm hmm, honest you do
At first I thought it was infatuation
But wooh, it's lasted so long
Now I find myself wanting
To marry you and take you home
I know, I know, I know, you send me
I know you send me
Whoa, you you you you send me
Honest you do
