About Your Love Still Brings Me to My Knees

"Your Love Still Brings Me to My Knees" is a song originally recorded by British artist Dusty Springfield and released in the UK in early 1980. It was her last single release on the Mercury label, but failed to reach the UK charts, despite heavy radio airplay. It was later recorded by American-Australian singer Marcia Hines. The song was written by Bobby Wood, Roger Cook and produced by David Mackay and released in July 1981 as the lead single from Hines' fifth studio album, Take it From the Boys (1981). It became Hines' sixth (and, to date, final) Top 10 single in Australia. Later versions were recorded by The Duncans also in 1981 and Leo Sayer in 1982.

Your love still brings me to my knees
From day to day you feel my needs
This flame that burns
Within my heart will never die

Oh, I bless the day you came along
You turned my life into a song
There is no greater love
And there will never be
'cause you're the only one
(your love still brings me to my knees)
Still bring me to my knees
You're the one, you're the one I long to please, oh darling, ah, ha
(your love still brings me to my knees)
(your love is killing me)

Oh, I find each day I love you more
Always the one I'm waiting for
No matter where I go
No matter what I do
'cause you're the only one
(your love still brings me to my knees)
Still brings me to my knees
Ah, you're the one I long to please, oh darling, ooh, aah, ooh
(your love still brings me to my knees)
(your love is killing me)

Now I never knew
What love was all about, yeah
Then you came along
Gave me a reason to stand up and shout, oh I love you
Oh darling

Your love still brings me to my knees
From day to day you feel my needs
There is no greater love
And there will never be
'cause you're the only one
(your love still brings me to my knees)
Still brings me to my knees
(your love is killing me)
(you're the one, you're the one I long to please
Still brings me to my knees
(your love still brings me to my knees)
Yes it does, sweet baby, ooh, ah
Shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it, yeah
Shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh
