[Verse 1: Michael Jackson]
Each time the wind blows
I hear your voice so
I call your name
Whispers at morning
Our love is dawning
Heaven's glad you came
You know how I feel
This thing can't go wrong
I'm so proud to say I love you
Your love's got me high
I long to get by
This time is forever
Love is the answer

[Verse 2: Sheryl Crow & Michael Jackson]
I hear your voice now
You are my choice now
The love you bring
Heaven's in my heart
At your call I hear harps
And angels sing
You know how I feel
This thing can't go wrong
I can't live my life without you
I just can't hold on
I feel we belong
My life ain't worth living
If I can't be with you

[Chorus: Michael Jackson & Sheryl Crow]
I just can't stop loving you
I just can't stop loving you
And if I stop
Then tell me just what will I do
I just can't stop loving you

[Verse 3: Michael Jackson & Sheryl Crow]
At night when the stars shine
I pray in you I'll find
A love so true
When morning awakes me
Will you come and take me
I'll wait for you
You know how I feel
I won't stop until
I hear your voice saying "I do"
"I do"
This thing can't go wrong
This feeling's so strong
Well, my life ain't worth living
If I can't be with you

[Chorus: Michael Jackson & Sheryl Crow]
I just can't stop loving you (Oh)
I just can't stop loving you
And if I stop
Then tell me just what will I do
I just can't stop loving you

[Bridge: Michael Jackson, Sheryl Crow, Both]
We can change all the world tomorrow
We can sing songs of yesterday
I can say, hey, farewell to sorrow
This is my life, and I
Want to see you for always

[Chorus: Michael Jackson & Sheryl Crow]
I just can't stop loving you (No, baby) (No)
I just can't stop loving you (Say it again now)
And if I stop (Oh)
Then tell me just what will I do
(What will I do?) (Hee, hee, hee)
I just can't stop loving you
(You know I do, girl)
I just can't stop loving you
(You know I do, girl)
And if I stop (Won't you tell me)
Then tell me just what will I do
(Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me)
I just can't stop loving you
(Hee hee hee, hee hee hee)
I just can't stop loving you
(Hee hee hee, all my life, baby)
And if I stop (Tell me)
Then tell me just what will I do
(Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me) (Tell me)
I just can't stop loving you
(Hee hee hee, all my life, baby)
I just can't stop loving you
(All my life, baby)
And if I stop

Michael Jackson

Michael Jackson was born on August 29, 1958, in Gary, Indiana. Jackson began his career when he was seven years old as the lead singer of the Jackson 5, breaking into stardom in 1969 after signing into Motown. The Jackson 5’s first four singles all peaked at number one on the Billboard 100, and soon after Michael pursued a solo career.

His breakthrough fifth album, 1979’s Off The Wall produced four top ten hits (including “Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough”) and sold 20 million copies, establishing him as a household name. The album was followed with 1982’s Thriller, which became the best selling album of all time, and was the first album to feature seven top 10 singles, including “Billie Jean” and “Beat It.”

In 1985, Michael contributed to the collaboration single “We Are The World”, which remains one of the best-selling singles of all time and raised nearly $65 million for famine relief.
