Story behind the song
Written in an iron foundry with a friend and co-worker. Inspiration doesn't always wait for the proper setting.
Lyrics
By Bill McCray and Ed Laura 12/8/00
I'm workin' eight hours the boss wants nine
I'd get out of here but I ain't got the time
So I bought some champagne your favorite cream puffs
Brought it all home to baby but that's not enough
I kick off my shoes let down my cuffs
pull out some candles and light them up, oh
Ready for romance ready for touch
Then you said "Oh baby that's not enough"
'That's not enough of the little things that love's suppose to be'
'That's not enough of the special things that you do just for me'
'That's not enough sure it's possible that it will never be'
'I know you'll be there when things get too tough
and you'll keep me safe baby but that's not enough'
The champagne was good the dinner was nice
but should we be here investing this time
I gave you my heart and material stuff
You keep insisting that's not enough
The question is this just what would it take
Can you justify all the love you've been faking
You know I'll be there to help you up
How can you tell me that's not enough
If that's not enough I'm thinkin' baby that it will never be
If that's not enough I'd raise the dead or help the blind to see
If that's not enough to change the way that you've been treating me
You're callin' it love well I'm callin' your bluff
I've got to say baby that's not enough
I stop to think of the words that you said
It was my mistake 'cause that's not what you meant
Was it "that's not enough" or "it's never too much
You'll just have to show me girl with your touch
No that's not enough.....
