Dedicated to the One I Love - LYRICS

While I'm far away from you my baby
I know it's hard for you my baby
Because it's hard for me my baby
And the darkest hour is just before dawn
Each night before you go to bed my baby
Whisper a little prayer for me my baby
And tell all the stars above
This is dedicated to the one I love
(Love can never be exactly like we want it to be)
I could be satisfied knowing you love me
(And there's one thing I want you to do)
(Especially for me)
And it's something that everybody needs
While I'm far away from you my baby
Whisper a little prayer for me my baby
Because it's hard for me my baby
And the darkest hour is just before dawn
If there's one thing I want you to do especially for me
Then it's something that everybody needs
Each night before you go to bed my baby
Whisper a little prayer for me my baby
And tell all the stars above
This is dedicated to the one I love
This is dedicated (to the one I love)
This is dedicated to the one I love
This is dedicated (to the one I love)
This is dedicated
This is dedicated

Dedicated To The One I Love - Walk off the Earth (The Mamas & the Papas)

Walk off the Earth

[hedianalif]

i love how they still put portrait of Beard Guy in the back 🖤

[walkofftheearth]

Thanks for watching y'all. Fun fact...although a lot of people know The Momas and The Papas version released in 1969. This was actually a cover for them. It was first released in 1957 by The 5 Royales and the again in 1961 by The Shirelles. And now in 2022 by Walk off the Earth 😜

[arpeg]

Bravo ! Genial! Grandes recuerdos de mi juventud !

[pollymiller]

Oh my heart. I wish i could hug you all. I have cancer, and it spread...i JUST FOUND your band.

I was a musician too. I'm buying ALL YOUR MUSIC NOW

THANK YOU FOR HELPING A LADY, A STRANGER🙏🤗

[treasurehog]

There's something special about a ballad that's all strings. No percussion, no brass, nada. Just strings and harmony. BEAUTIFUL.

[vahhoichonghaokip]

I'm getting Christmas vibe here😌❣️

[ChuckEWeiss-fkvr]

I’ve always loved the vocal arrangement at the end of this song. I think yours even tops the Mamas and the Papas.

[DashingPartyCrasher]

As a kid I listened over and over through oversized headphones, to this and other Mamas and Papas hits. They inspired my lifelong love of music and singing. This version really captures the original's swelling energy and exuberance. 👏👏

[reneekennedy]

The Mamas and The Papas would be so honoured

[MeMyFriendsandPie]

It's been almost 4 years, and I can finally reconnect with such an amazing group again. The talent, and preformance has always been there. But when Mike Taylor (Beard Guy) passed away. It was one of the first deaths in a musical group that truely rocked me to my core. Devastated for months, I inadvertently lost track in following the group and to this day I have passing thoughts of Beard Guy. Rest in peace you legend.

Love you so much WOTF. You gave my fiancé and I passion in playing music with each other. Stellar composition as usual! ❤️

[frankcullen]

Originally recorded by the 5 Royales in 1957 and The Shirelles in 1960 ... long before the Mama's and the Papas. This is an extraordinary version. Excellent harmony.

[jerrysky]

I sure hope this group knows how awesome they are at their craft. Nobody comes close to their skill at tributing so many artists and songs.

[andrzejflaga]

Thanks for Your song, I will present it to the one I love. Happy Valentine's Day!

[conserve_climber]

😢 oh my; I hadn’t noticed the portrait…thank you for making mention of it. Glad “and” sad…❤️ my fave moments of the band. That said; I love this performance of the song. Amazing.

[Reemyreem]

I just want the beard guy to know that we all miss him so much and walk off the earth will never be the same without him so just pray pray❤❤❤ pray for the beard guy 🙏

[justky]

The last time I saw this group, they were all sharing one guitar and singing about somebody we used to know. It's been so long that I'm not even sure how many of these guys were even a part of it back then, but I'm glad to see the group still making music.

[brucedagel]

I miss the Mama and the Papas. Thanks for doing this song justice!

[jla]

This gave me full body chills. 🤗 I love love love this song and now more than ever. Thank you so much for all the joy you bring to my life.

[angieauger]

I'm an old fart and just love seeing you young un's dust off and polish the old songs with a new twist to them, keep em coming.

[joellenjarvis]

I don't just "like" this ..I "LOVE" All of your harmonies are tremendous!!!! Your group is Fabulous!!!!
