Natalie Cole

When an irresistible force such as you
Meets an old immovable object like me
You can bet as sure as you live that something's gotta give
Something's gotta give, something's gotta give

When an irrepressible smile such as yours
Warms an old implacable heart such as mine
Don't say no because I insist
Somewhere, somehow, someone's gonna be kissed

So en garde who knows what the fates have in store
From their vast mysterious sky
I'll try hard ignoring those lips I adore
But how long can anyone try?

Fight, fight, fight, fight, fight it with all of our might
Chances are some heavenly star-spangled night
We'll find out as sure as we live something's gotta give
Something's gotta give, something's gotta give

Yeah, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight it with all of our might
Chances are some heavenly star-spangled night
We'll find out as sure as we live something's gotta give
Something's gotta give, something's gotta give

Something's gotta give, something's gotta give
Something's gotta give, something's gotta give
Something's gotta give, something's gotta give
Something's gotta give, something's gotta give

Something's gotta give, something's gotta give
Something's gotta give, something's gotta, gotta give, gotta
Gotta, gotta, gotta give, gotta give, gotta
Something's gotta give

The daughter of jazz legend Nat King Cole, Natalie Marie Cole (February 6, 1950-December 31, 2015) was an R&B icon who was primarily active from 1956 until her death in 2015 due to congestive heart failure at age 65. She first rose to success in the mid-‘70s with Inseparable and Natalie and later spawning Grammy-recognized albums like Unforgettable…With Love, which took home Album of the Year.

Cole has nine Grammy Awards out of twenty-one nominations – only a small testament to her legend.
