Lyrics and translation Mariah Carey - Workin' Hard

Workin' Hard

Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do

Every night before I go to sleep
I close my eyes and pray
And I thank The Lord
That once again
I made it through the day
I let Him know that I appreciate
The many blessings from above
And I pray that He will send to me
The one I really love

I've been trying to make him notice me
I've been trying to make him care
I've been trying to show him how I feel
He isn't really aware
That I'm dying to be his everything
That he's all I'm thinking of
That I'm yearning for him desperately
Oh, I'm rеally falling in love

I'm workin' hard (gotta make him love mе)
Gotta make him care (make him want my love)
Heaven up above me
This is my only prayer (got me workin', workin', baby)
Gotta make this feeling
Something that we share (want my love)
Gotta make him love me (hey)
This is my only prayer

Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do (hey)
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do

Every day I contemplate another way
To make him mine
All my life's a crazy game
I guess I'm just a silly child
He doesn't even look at me
He doesn't know that I'm alive
But I know that eventually
I'll have him by my side

I'm workin' hard (gotta make him love me)
Gotta make him care (make him want my love)
Heaven up above me
This is my only prayer (got me workin' workin' baby baby)
Gotta make this feeling (oh)
Something that we share (eh)
Gotta make him love me
This is my only prayer (I'm workin')

Gotta make him love me (ooh)
Gotta make him care
Heaven up above me
This is my only prayer (ooh I'm workin')
Gotta make this feeling
Something that we share (make you want my love)
Gotta make him love me
This is my only prayer

Do-ya-do-ya-do-do-do-do-ya-do-ya-do-ya-do (oh yeah)
Do-ya-do-ya-do-do-do-do-ya-do-ya-do-ya-do
Do-ya-do-ya-do-do-do-do-ya-do-ya-do-ya-do (gotta make this feelin?)
Do-ya-do-ya-do-do-do-do-ya-do-ya-do-ya-do

(I'm working) gotta make him love me
Gotta make him care (do you want my love?)
Heaven up above me (yeah)
This is my only prayer (I'm working)
Gotta make this feeling (gotta make it gotta make it baby)
Something that we share (do you want my love?)
Gotta make him love me (do ya? Baby, do ya?)
This is my only prayer

Oh, I'm workin' hard
Gotta make him love me
Gotta make him care (do you want my love?)
Heaven up above me
This is my only prayer (got me workin', workin', pretty baby)
I'm workin' hard
Do-ya-do-ya-do-do-do-do-ya-do-ya-do-ya-do
Do-ya-do-ya-do-do-do-do-ya-do-ya-do-ya-do

Travailler dur

Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do

Chaque soir avant de m'endormir
Je ferme les yeux et je prie
Et je remercie le Seigneur
Que j'aie encore une fois
Survécu à la journée
Je lui fais savoir que j'apprécie
Les nombreuses bénédictions d'en haut
Et je prie pour qu'il m'envoie
Celui que j'aime vraiment

J'essaie de te faire me remarquer
J'essaie de te faire t'en soucier
J'essaie de te montrer ce que je ressens
Tu ne le sais pas vraiment
Que je meurs d'envie d'être tout pour toi
Que tu es tout à quoi je pense
Que je te désire désespérément
Oh, je tombe vraiment amoureuse

Je travaille dur (il faut que tu m'aimes)
Il faut que tu t'en soucies (que tu veuilles mon amour)
Le ciel au-dessus de moi
C'est ma seule prière (je travaille, travaille, mon chéri)
Il faut que ce sentiment
Devienne quelque chose que nous partageons (tu veux mon amour)
Il faut que tu m'aimes (hé)
C'est ma seule prière

Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do (hé)
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do

Chaque jour, je réfléchis à une autre façon
De te faire mien
Toute ma vie est un jeu fou
Je suppose que je ne suis qu'une enfant stupide
Tu ne me regardes même pas
Tu ne sais même pas que je suis en vie
Mais je sais qu'à la fin
Je t'aurai à mes côtés

Je travaille dur (il faut que tu m'aimes)
Il faut que tu t'en soucies (que tu veuilles mon amour)
Le ciel au-dessus de moi
C'est ma seule prière (je travaille, travaille, mon chéri, mon chéri)
Il faut que ce sentiment (oh)
Devienne quelque chose que nous partageons (eh)
Il faut que tu m'aimes
C'est ma seule prière (je travaille)

Il faut que tu m'aimes (ooh)
Il faut que tu t'en soucies
Le ciel au-dessus de moi
C'est ma seule prière (ooh je travaille)
Il faut que ce sentiment
Devienne quelque chose que nous partageons (tu veux mon amour)
Il faut que tu m'aimes
C'est ma seule prière

Do-ya-do-ya-do-do-do-do-ya-do-ya-do-ya-do (oh yeah)
Do-ya-do-ya-do-do-do-do-ya-do-ya-do-ya-do
Do-ya-do-ya-do-do-do-do-ya-do-ya-do-ya-do (il faut que ce sentiment?)
Do-ya-do-ya-do-do-do-do-ya-do-ya-do-ya-do

(Je travaille) il faut que tu m'aimes
Il faut que tu t'en soucies (tu veux mon amour?)
Le ciel au-dessus de moi (yeah)
C'est ma seule prière (je travaille)
Il faut que ce sentiment (il faut que ce soit, il faut que ce soit, mon chéri)
Devienne quelque chose que nous partageons (tu veux mon amour?)
Il faut que tu m'aimes (tu veux? Mon chéri, tu veux?)
C'est ma seule prière

Oh, je travaille dur
Il faut que tu m'aimes
Il faut que tu t'en soucies (tu veux mon amour?)
Le ciel au-dessus de moi
C'est ma seule prière (je travaille, travaille, jolie chérie)
Je travaille dur
Do-ya-do-ya-do-do-do-do-ya-do-ya-do-ya-do
Do-ya-do-ya-do-do-do-do-ya-do-ya-do-ya-do
