YOU GIVE GOOD LOVE

 

I found out what I've been missing

Always on the run

I've been looking for someone

 

Now you're here like you've been before

And you know just what I need

It took some time for me to see

 

Chorus:

That you give good love to me baby

So good, take this heart mine into your hands

You give good love to me

Never too much

Baby you give good love

 

Never stopping, I was always searching

For that perfect love

The kind that girls like me dream of

 

Now you're here like you've been before

And you know just what I need

It took some time for me to see

 

Chorus

 

Now I, I can't stop looking around

It's not, what this loves all about

Our love is here to stay, stay

 

Chorus

 

THINKING ABOUT YOU

 

I can't get you off my mind

No matter what I do

I'm wishing you were here, with me

It makes no difference

I only think of you

And I living out my fantasy

 

Midnight, I run to you

Being such a love sick fool

It might be pouring rain

Still the same, nothings changed

All and all I feel no shame

I'm just your fool insane

(I'm just your fool)

 

Chorus:

I keep thinking about you baby

So tell me what you're gonna do

Ya got me thinking about you

Make believing is a game

That's not for me to play

Don't you need me just like I need you

Just like I need you

There's no reason

Just my heart that makes me feel this way

And I hope you feel the same way too

 

Midnight, I run to you

Being such a love sick fool

It might be pouring rain

Still the same, nothings changed

All and all I feel no shame

I'm just your fool insane

(I'm just your fool)

 

Chorus

SOMEONE FOR ME

 

Someone for me

Someone for me

 

I'm here alone on a Friday night

Waiting here beside the phone

The TV, radio and me

Really ain't been getting along

I wish that I could find a way

And party to the break of day

And there I'd be sure to meet

The guy that would be special to me

 

Then mama comes and asks me

Why I am dreaming sitting alone

Why not go out and have some fun

It's the only way I'll ever find

Someone for me

While I am young and seventeen

 

Chorus:

Someone for me

someone for me

I've got to find someone, someone

Someone for me

I've got to find someone, Yeah!

 

Now there's a party down at Angie's house

With people packed against the walls

I'm sitting in a corner here

Trying to make sense of it all

 

And when I least expect it

Meeting the guy I see in my dreams

Here he is walking up to me and asking

If I'd like to come and dance with him

I think I found someone for me

 

Chorus

 

I need somebody for me

I need somebody for me, someone

 

And so I'm finding out that dreams you believe in

Can come to be

And now I'm looking up to find the joy and happiness

Can come to you and me

I actually found someone for me

 

Someone for me

I need somebody for me

I need somebody for me, Someone

Someone for me, Someone for me, Someone

Someone, Someone, Someone, Someone, Someone, Someone for me

Someone one for me

Somebody, Somebody, Somebody, Somebody

Yeah, Yeah

 

Oh I need somebody for me

I need somebody for me, Somone

 

Someone for me

Someone for me

Someone, Someone, Somebody, Someone, Somebody, Someone, Somebody for me

 

Someone, Somebody, Someone for me

 

SAVING ALL MY LOVE FOR YOU

 

A few stolen moments is all that we share

You've got your family, and they need you there

Though I try to resist, being last on your list

But no other man's gonna do

So I'm saving all my love for you

 

It's not very easy, living all alone

My friends try and tell me, find a man of my own

But each time I try, I just break down and cry

'Cause I'd rather be home feeling blue

So I'm savin' all my love for you

 

You used to tell me we'd run away together

Love gives you the right to be free

You said be patient, just wait a little longer

But that's just an old fantasy

 

I've got to get ready, just a few minutes more

Gonna get that old feeling when you walk through that door

'Cause tonight is the night, for feeling alright

We'll be making love the whole night through

So I'm saving all my love

Yeah I'm saving all my love

Yes I'm saving all my love for you

 

A few minutes more 'til you walk through the door

No other woman, is gonna love you more

'Cause tonight is the night, that I'm feeling alright

We'll be making love the whole night through

So I'm saving all my love

Yeah I'm saving all my love

Yes I'm saving all my love for you

For you, for you

 

NOBODY LOVES ME LIKE YOU DO

 

Like a candle burning bright

Love is glowing in your eyes

A flame to light our way

That burns brighter everyday

Now I have you

Nobody loves me like you do

 

Like a leaf upon the wind

I could find no place to land

I dreamed the hours away

And wondered everyday

Do dreams come true

Nobody loves me like you do

 

What if I'd never met you

Where would I be right now

Funny how life just falls in place somehow

You've touched my heart in places

That I never even knew

Nobody loves me like you do

 

I was words without a tune

I was a song still unsung

A poem with no rhyme

A dancer out of time

But now there's you

And nobody loves me like you do

 

What if I'd never met you

Where would I be right now

Funny how life just falls in place somehow

You've touched my heart in places

That I never even knew

Nobody loves me

Nobody loves me

Nobody loves me like you do

Nobody loves me like you do

 

HOW WILL I KNOW

 

There's a boy I know

He's the one I dream of

Looks into my eyes

Takes me to the stars above

Oh I lose control

Can't seem to get enough

When I wake from dreaming

Tell me is it really love

 

How will I know

Girl trust your feelings

How will I know

How will I know

Love can be deceiving

How will I know

 

Chorus:

How will I know if he really loves me

I say a prayer with every heart beat

I fall in love whenever we meet

I'm asking you what you know about these things

How will I know if he's thinking of me

I try to phone but I'm too shy - can't speak

Falling in love is so bitter sweet

This love is strong why do I feel weak

 

Oh, wake me, I'm shaking

Wish I had you near me now

Said there's no mistaking

What I feel is really love

 

How will I know

Girl trust your feelings

How will I know

How will I know

Love can be deceiving

How will I know

 

Chorus

 

If he loves me, if he loves me not

He loves me, if he loves me not

He loves me, if he loves me not

Oh how will I know

 

Chorus

 

ALL AT ONCE

 

All at once

I finally took a moment and I'm realizing that

Your not coming back

And it finally hit me

All at once

 

All at once

I started counting teardrops and at least a million fell

My eyes began to swell

And all my dreams were shattered

All at once

 

Ever since I met you

You're the only love I've known

And I can't forget you

So I must face it all alone

 

Chorus:

All at once

I'm drifting on a lonely sea

Wishing you'd come back to me

And that's all that matters now

All at once

I'm drifting on a lonely sea

Holding on to memories

And it hurts me more than you know

So much more than it shows

All at once

 

All at once

I looked around and found that you were with another love

In someone else's arms

And all my dreams were shattered

All at once

 

All at once

The smile that used to greet me brightened someone else's day

She took your smile away

And left me with just memories

All at once

 

Ever since I met you

You're the only love I've known

And I can't forget you

So I must face it all alone

 

Chorus

 

TAKE GOOD CARE OF MY HEART

 

Time can pass so slowly

when you feel so all alone

Love can strike like lightning

When you find your heart a home

I've seen it in the movies, read about it in a book

I've never feel it, but your touch was all it took

 

Chorus:

Take good care of my heart

Take good care of my heart

Baby you're the first to take it

You're the only one who can break it

I love you more than I should

But it keeps me feeling so good

I've waited for your love for ever

You're the one to take good care of my heart

 

Come and make your magic

Til you have me hypnotized

If we get any closer

I'll be drowning in your eyes

You're the one I needed most when my love was on the line

I'm so glad you gave me yours, when I gave you mine

 

Chorus

 

[Instrumental]

 

Chorus

 

GREATEST LOVE OF ALL

 

I believe that children are our future

Teach them well and let them lead the way

Show them all the beauty they possess inside

Give them a sense of pride to make it easier

Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be

 

Everybody searching for a hero

People need someone to look up to

I never found anyone to fulfill my needs

A lonely place to be

So I learned to depend on me

 

I decided long ago

Never to walk in anyone's shadows

If I fail, if I succeed

At least I will live as I believe

No matter what they take from me

They can't take away my dignity

 

Chorus:

Because the greatest love of all

Is happening to me

I found the greatest love of all

Inside of me

The greatest love of all

Is easy to achieve

Learning to love yourself

It is the greatest love of all

 

I believe the children are our future

Teach them well and let them lead the way

Show them all the beauty they possess inside

Give them a sense of pride to make it easier

Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be

 

And I decided long ago

Never to walk in anyone's shadows

If I fail, if I succeed

At least I will live as I believe

No matter what they take from me

They can't take away my dignity

 

Chorus

 

And if by chance, that special place

That you've been dreaming of

Leads you to a lonely place

Find your strength in love

 

HOLD ME

 

I'll hold you, and touch you

And make you my woman

I'll give you my love

With sweet surrender

Tonight our hearts will beat as one

And I will hold you and touch you

And make you my woman tonight

 

There's something in your eyes I see

A pure and simple honesty

 

Chorus:

Hold me in your arms tonight

Fill my life with pleasure

Let's not waste this precious time

This moment's ours to treasure

 

Hold me in your arms tonight

We'll make it last forever

When the morning sun appears

We'll find our way together

 

I believe you

When you say that you love me

Know that

I won't take you for granted

Tonight the magic has begun

So won't you hold me

Touch me

Make me your woman tonight

 

There's something in your eyes I see

I won't betray your trust in me

 

Chorus

 

Hold me in your arms tonight

We'll make it last forever

When the morning sun appears

We'll find our way together

 

I WANNA DANCE WITH SOMEBODY (WHO LOVES ME)

 

Clock strikes upon the hour

And the sun begins to fade

Still enough time to figure out

How to chase my blues away

I've done alright up to now

It's the light of day that shows me how

And when the night falls, loneliness calls

 

Chorus:

Oh wanna dance with somebody

I wanna feel the heat with somebody

Yeah wanna dance with somebody

With somebody who loves me

Oh wanna dance with somebody

I wanna feel the heat with somebody

Yeah wanna dance with somebody

With somebody who loves me

 

I've been in love and lost my senses

Spinning through the town

Sooner or later the fever ends

And I wind up feeling down

I need a man who'll take a chance

On a love that burns hot enough to last

So when the night falls

My lonely heart calls

 

Chorus

 

Somebody oo Somebody oo

Somebody who loves me yeah

Somebody oo Somebody oo

To hold me in his arms oh

I need a man who'll take a chance

On a love that burns hot enough to last

So when the night falls

My lonely heart calls

 

Chorus

 

Don'tcha wanna dance with me baby

Don’tcha wanna dance with me boy

Hey Don'tcha wanna dance with me baby

With somebody who loves me

 

Don'tcha wanna dance say you wanna dance

Don'tcha wanna dance

Don'tcha wanna dance say you wanna dance

Don'tcha wanna dance

Don'tcha wanna dance say you wanna dance

With somebody who loves me

Dance

 

JUST THE LONELY TALKING AGAIN

 

It's the second time around

For you and I boy

And believe me it's confusing me

I'm afraid to say "let's make up" and "All's forgiven"

But somethin' tells me it's heading for heartbreak...

So darling please I'm praying that

This time yeah this time will be different

That you and I can share this dream that I visualize...

 

Chorus:

Tell me are you really ready for love boy

Or is it just the lonely talking again

Are you really ready for love boy

Or is it the lonely talking again

 

Now the time before

When we got together

You promised you'd be forever true to me

But all I got from you

Was lots and lots of talking

Lonely nights filled with misery

 

So baby please please tell me now

That when I fulfill your needs

You won't up and leave me

Even though you know

I'll let you come back

 

Chorus

 

Really need to know

 

Chorus

 

Tell me now

Wanna know

Really gotta know

Are you ready?

Are you ready

Are you ready?

Tell me are you ready

Are you ready?

Are you ready?

Need to know

Really wanna know

Really wanna know

Really need to know

Are we gonna talk?

Are we gonna talk?

Don't wanna talk no no no no

I need to know

I really wanna know

You tell me now

Are you ready?

No no no need to know

 

LOVE WILL SAVE THE DAY

 

Sometimes life can make you crazy

It can really put your body to the test

You try so hard to make sure everything is right

And you find you've only wound up with a mess

It's a common situation

Even though you feel abandoned and alone

Child, you ain't the first to experience the hurt

So don't panic when you hit the danger zone

 

What you need's a little change of heart

Forget this fear and frustration

Love will always play the greater part

When your battles wear you down

Here's my advice

 

Chorus:

When you're feeling down and out

And you've got troubles on your mind

Love will save the day

When you're feeling full of doubt

And fear has got you in a bind

Love will save the day

When your world's falling apart

All you have to do is say a prayer

And love will save the day

There's an answer in your heart

So let your light shine on my dear and

Love will save the day

Love will save the day

Love will save the day

Love will save the day

Love will save the day

 

Many things in this world bring you down

It's a wonder you can make it through the day

Well you can't sleep cuz your problems are too deep

And there's always something getting in the way

And when you turn on the evening news

Mass confusion is the only thing you'll see

Well there's no question

That we need a new direction cuz

Cuz we all could use some peace and harmony

 

What you need's a little change of heart

Forget this fear and frustration

Love will always play the greater part

When your battles wear you down

Here's my advice

Here's my advice!

 

Chorus

 

Love is gonna save the day

You gotta believe it

You gotta believe it

Na na na na na na na na

So if you need a little change of heart

Forget this fear and frustration

Cuz love will always play the greater part

When your battles wear you down

Here's my advice

Here's my advice!

 

Chorus

 

Love is going to save the day

You gotta believe it

Love is gonna save the day

Love is gonna save the day yeah yeah

Love will save the day

 

DIDN'T WE ALMOST HAVE IT ALL

 

Remember when we hold on in the rain

The nights we almost lost it once again

We can take the night into tomorrow

Living on feelings

Touching you I feel it again

 

Chorus:

Didn't we almost have it all

When love was all we had worth giving

The ride with you was worth the fall my friend

Loving you makes life worth living

Didn't we almost have it all

The nights we held on till the morning

You know you'll never love that way again

Didn't we almost have it all

 

The way you used to touch me felt so fine

We kept our hearts together down the line

A moment in the soul can last forever

Comfort and keep us

Help me bring the feeling back again

 

Chorus

 

Didn't we have the best of times

When love was young and new

Couldn't we reach inside and find

The world of me and you

We'll never lose it again

Cause once you know what love is

You'll never let it end

 

Chorus

 

Didn't we almost have it all

 

SO EMOTIONAL

 

I don't know why I like it

I just do

 

I've been hearing your heartbeat inside of me

I keep your photograph beside my bed

Livin' in a world of fantasies

I can't get you out of my head uh

I've been waiting for the phone to ring all night

Why you wanna make me feel so good

I got a love of my own babe

I shouldn't get so hung up on you

 

I remember the way that we touch

I wish I didn't like it so much uh

 

Chorus:

I get so emotional baby

Everytime I think of you

I get so emotional baby

Ain't it shocking what love can do

Ain't it shocking what love can do

Ain't it shocking what love can do

 

I gotta watch you walk in the room baby

I gotta watch you walk out

I like the animal way you move

And when you talk I just watch your mouth

 

I remember the way that we touch

I wish I didn't like it so much no

 

Chorus

 

See I remember the way that we touch

I wish I didn't like it so much no no no

 

I get so emotional baby

Everytime I think of you

I get so emotional baby

Ain't it shocking what love can do

I get so emotional baby

Everytime I think of you

I get so emotional baby

Ain't it shocking what love can do

I get so emotional oh baby

Shocking what love can do

Hey yeah baby baby baby

Baby baby

Oh ain't it shocking what love can do

Yeah baby

Shocking what

 

WHERE YOU ARE

 

I saw the news this morning

And saw your face across the screen

And as I poured my coffee,

I picked up a magazine

 

Chorus:

But as I turned the page

And looked inside

There you were again (there you were)

Oh these lonely times

They never seem to end

You're too far

I know I should be there where you are

 

Today I did some shopping

Just had to clear my mind again

I can't stop thinkin' bout you

I hopped into a taxi

In a moment I was home

Home again

 

Chorus

 

Tossing and turning in my sleep

I can't take being without you

I'm gonna catch the next plane out

I got to get to where you are

No matter how near or far

I got to get there where you are

I know

 

Chorus

 

I wanna be where you are

I need to be where you are

I wanna be I wanna be baby

You know I need to be

I know I should be there where you are

 

LOVE IS A CONTACT SPORT

 

Contact Contact

 

You've been avoiding me

Like a cat trying to dodge a dog

I never see ya shine

You're as cold as the London fog

You claim you want my love

Well I wouldn't know by the way you behave

If you want to feel the thrill of my touch

You better come out of your cave

 

It's so perplexing

Why you fight it won't you try it

Love's electric

Turn me on and see

 

Chorus:

Love is a contact sport

You gotta move in time

If you wanna do it right

Here I am

Love is a contact sport

You gotta act untamed

If you wanna play the game

So grab my hand, SLAM!

 

I hate to sound agressive

But I'm tired of waiting for your move

Cut the formalities

Cuz you've got a few things to prove

If you really want my love

I need to feel it down deep from within

Don't make me wait too long

I'm ready now come and stroke my skin

 

Well all this talking

Worthless chatter just don't matter

Time for stalkin'

Come get next to me

 

Chorus

 

Hey boy,

Why don'tcha come on over

So we can make that contact

Contact you dare

 

It's so perplexing

Why you fight it won't you try it

Love's electric

Turn me on and see

 

Chorus

 

YOU'RE STILL MY MAN

 

On the day that you left me

You said you had no regrets

There's a bond between us

That hasn't been broken yet

And the feelings between us

Will never disappear

How can you be far away

When your spirit's here

 

Chorus:

You're still my man

Nothing can change it

We still belong together

You're still my man

Nothing can change it

Our love will last forever

 

And the seasons of our love

Will always change I know

Maybe that's the reason

You felt we had to go

But soon you'll be missing me

Darling I know you well

There's a magic we share together

And no one can break that spell

 

Chorus

 

I'll wait for you

The thought that keeps me going each day

Is I believe you still love me

I love you more than words can say

 

You're still my man

Nothing's gonna change it

Don't you know, you oughta know we belong together

You're still my man

And nothing can change it

Oh baby oh darling you're in my heart forever

Cuz you're my man

Without you

Darling, our love at all

 

You're still my man

Nothing can change it

Don't you know you oughta know we belong together

Oh You're still my man

Nothing can change it

Oh baby oh darling you're in my heart forever

You're still my man

Nothing can change it

I'm yours, you know you're mine

You're in my heart forever

 

You're still my man

Nothing can change it

Don't you know you oughta know we belong together

You're still my man...

 

FOR THE LOVE OF YOU

 

Drifting on a memory

Ain't no place I'd rather be

Than with you, loving you

Day will make a way for night

All we'll need is candlelight

And a song soft and long, well

 

Glad to be here alone

With a lover unlike no other

Safe to see a new horizon

Slowly coming into view

 

Chorus:

I wanna be living for the love of you

All that I'm giving is for the love of you

 

Lovely as a ray of sun

That touches me when the morning comes

Feels good to me, my love and me

Smoother than a gentle breeze

Flowing through my mind with ease

Soft as can be well when you're loving me

 

Love to be

Riding the waves of your love

Enchanted with your touch

It seems to me

We can sail together in and out of mystery

 

Chorus

 

Paradise I have within

Can't feel insecure again

You're the key and this I see

Now and then I lose my way

Using words to try and say

What I feel yeah love is real ooh

I might as well

Sign my name on a card

Which could say it better

Time will tell

Cause it seems that I've done

Just about all that I can do do do

 

Chorus

 

WHERE DO BROKEN HEARTS GO

 

I know it's been some time

But there's something on my mind

You see I haven't been the same

Since that cold November day

We said wee needed space

But all we found was an empty place

And the only things I learned

Is that I need you desperately

So here I am

And can you please tell me (oh)

 

Chorus:

Where do broken hearts go

Can they find their way home

Back to the open arms

Of a love that's waiting there

And if somebody loves you

Won't they always love you

I look in your eyes

And I know that you still care for me

 

I've been around enough to know

That dreams don't turn to gold

And that there is no easy way

No you just can't run away

And what we had was so much more

Than we ever had before

And no matter how I try

You're always on my mind

So here I am

And can you please tell me (oh)

 

Chorus

 

And now that I am here with you

I'll never let you go

I look into your eyes

And now I know, now I know

 

Chorus

 

For me

You still care for me...

 

I KNOW HIM SO WELL

 

Nothing is so good it lasts eternally

Perfect situations must go wrong

But this has never yet prevented me

From wanting far too much for far too long

Looking back, I could have done it differently

Won a few more moments, who can tell?

But it took time to understand the man

Now at least I know, I know him well

 

Wasn't it good, Wasn't it fine

Isn't it madness he can't be mine

But in the end, he needs a little more than before

Security, he needs his fantasy and freedom

I know him so well

 

No one in your life is with you constantly

No one is completely on your side

And though I move my world to be with him

Still the gap between us is too wide

Looking back, I could have played it differently

Learned about the man before I fell

But I was ever so much younger then

 

Wasn't it good (oh so good), Wasn't it fine (so fine)

Isn't it madness he can't be mine

 

Didn't I know how it would go

If I knew from the start

Why am I falling apart

 

Wasn't it fine

Isn't it madness he can't be mine

But in the end, he needs a little more than before

Security, he needs his fantasy and freedom

I know him so well

It took some to understand him

Hoo ooh I know him so well

 

I'M YOUR BABY TONIGHT

 

From the moment I saw you

I went outta my mind

Though I never believed in

Love at first sight

But you got a magic boy

That I just can't explain

Well you gotta, you gotta way

That you make me feel

I can do, I can do anything for you baby

I'll be down for you baby

Lay all my cards out tonight

Just call on me baby

I'll be there in a hurry

It's your move so baby baby decide

 

Chorus:

Whatever you want from me

I'm giving you everything

I'm your baby tonight

You've given my ecstasy

You are my fantasy

I'm your baby tonight

 

From the second you touched me

I was ready to die

I've never been fatal

You're my first time

I feel like an angel

Who just started to fly

Well you gotta, you gotta way that

You make a me feel I can, feel I can

Do anything for you baby

Hold on and enjoy the ride

I'm not in no hurry

We can fly all night baby

It's your move now baby

Baby let's fly

 

Chorus

 

Whatever I do boy

It's all about you baby

And ain't it the truth boy

I'm helplessly in love with you

What else i can do boy

But be there for you baby

You gotta, you gotta way that

You make a me feel I can, feel I can

Do any, Do anything Yeah!

 

Chorus

 

Looks like I'm fatal

It's all on the table

And baby you hold the cards

You got the magic

And I've got to have it

I don't want the pieces

I want every single part

I'll be your angel

I'm ready and able

Whatever you want is fine

Whenever you're ready

Just call on your lady

And I'll be your baby tonight

 

Chorus

 

MY NAME IS NOT SUSAN

 

One night not long ago

I fell for you

Too easy to let go

She was one from your past

One of the few

You said it didn't last

 

Now Romeo you know I can't believe

Your tongue would slip so easily

I know you think I oughta let it be

But get it right

Next time

That's the end of me

 

Chorus:

My name is not Susan

So watch what you say

If you still need her

Then be on your way

Don't wanna hear about Susan

She got nothin' on me

So show some respect

For the love you receive

My name is not Susan

 

No, no, no, no, no get it right

 

Last night you were asleep

Deep in a dream

I heard you call her name

Then you turned to embrace

I froze in place

Never to be the same

 

Now Romeo you know I never knew

My heart would bust so easily

I know you think I oughta let it go

But get it right

Next time

Say good-bye to me boy

 

Chorus

 

I never wanna be the girly

That you call one and only

You know the kind of girly

That you would call when you get lonely

I never should have let you in

A damn shame

Forgot my name

Well anyway

 

Chorus

 

My name ain't susan (better get it right)

My name ain't susan

My name ain't susan...

 

ALL THE MAN THAT I NEED

 

I used to cry myself to sleep at night

But that was all before he came

I thought love had to hurt to turn out right

But now he's here, it's not the same

It's not the same

 

Chorus:

He fills me up

He gives me love

More love than I've ever seen

He's all I've got

He's all I've got in this world

But he's all the man that I need

 

And in the morning when I kiss his eyes

He takes me down

And rocks me slow

And in the evening when the moon is high

He holds me close

And won't let go

He won't let go

 

Chorus

 

(Kenny G Saxophone Solo)

 

Chorus

 

He fills me up

He gives me love

More love than I've ever seen (more love more love)

He's all I've got

He's all I've got in this world

But he's all the man (all the man) that I need

 

More love than I've ever seen

 

More love than I've ever seen...

 

LOVER FOR LIFE

 

I hope you realize baby

Just what you mean to me

Hey you where I run for cover

Your love is shelter for me

And when I find myself needing

Some lifting up

One night with you and

That always is enough

How you make being in love

A true rare affair

So take me I'm your prisoner

 

Chorus:

Will you sentence me

To be your lover for life

Your lover for life

Will you sentence me

I wanna be your lover for life

Your lover for life

Your lover yeah yeah yeah

 

I just want to hear you say

You'll be my lover, lover for life

Capture, there's no getaway

You're my lover, my lover for life

 

Under your spell or

Under my own power

It really doesn't matter to me

No boy

See I fell in love

The first time I saw you

And have been falling in love

Ever since mm boy

 

You heard my testimony

You've seen my evidence

Hey, it's a crime of passion

In every sense

And justice would be served

If you stay here in my world

So take me I'm your prisoner

 

Chorus

 

I just want to hear you say

You'll be my lover, lover for life

Capture, there's no getaway

You're my lover, my lover for life

 

I'm your prisoner

Take me

I'm your prisoner

And sentence me to be

Your lover for life

Wanna be

Take me baby

Your lover, your baby

 

ANYMORE

 

I believe in roses

But only from the heart

And if it's not sincere baby then

I don't want no part

 

I believe in one love baby,

True monogamy

What I don't know can't hurt me

That's not the way I see

 

If you believed in me

You won't mess around

It's not like I don't know

You've been with every girl in town

 

You got a lot of nerve to think

I just close my eyes

While you walk aorund so full of it

I give you my surprise

 

Chorus: (repeat twice)

I don't need your kinda love

I don't need your kinda trust

I don't want you, anymore

I don't need your kinda kisses

I don't want to be your Mrs.

I don't want to anymore

 

I believe that angels

Watch everything we do

And all the wrong you're doing

Just might come back on you

 

I believe in phone calls

When you're not by my side

Especially when it's lonely

In the middle of the night

 

If you believe that true love

Is only made in bed

Lord have mercy on you

Chivalry is dead

 

You got a lot of nerve to think,

To think that I'm still down

While you've taken me for granted

Boy I'm through, I'm outta town

 

Chorus

 

So baby (so baby)

You can kiss this girl goodbye

I'm through with ya

Movin on with my life

No more pain, no more fears

I'm movin on, I'm keepin on

I'm through with all the tears

 

Your kinda love

Your kinda trust

I don't want you, don't need you

Can't have you

Your kinda kisses (yeah)

To be your Mrs.

I don't want you (sing it for us)

 

Chorus

 

Don't need, don't want you

Don't need, don't want

Don't need that kind of love

Don't want your kind of love

Don't need it

Don't want it

 

MIRACLE

 

How could I throw away a miracle

How could I face another day

It's all of my doing

I made a choice

And today I pay

My heart is full of pain

How could you understand

The way I feel

How could you relate to so much pain

Seems as though nothing can comfort me

So today I pray

That someone should listen for

 

Chorus:

Nothing should matter

Not when love grows inside you

The choice is yours

There's a miracle in store

Nothing should matter

Not when love grows inside you

A voice of love is crying out

Don't throw love away

There's a miracle in store

 

How could I let go of a miracle

Nothing could ever take its place

Thought I was looking

Out for myself

Now it seems the pain

Is all that I have gained

I wonder if I could be your miracle

I wonder if I could spare you pain

Seems as though nothing will comfort me

Less today I pray

That you should come listen

 

Chorus

 

Don't ever throw away your miracle

Don't let it slip away

Nothing should matter

 

Chorus

 

I BELONG TO YOU

 

In a world when dreams are few

You've got me baby I've got you

You're the one that makes me feel brand new

 

Sometimes love can wear you out

Chill your soul baby, make you doubt

That you'll never find the one that's true

 

All of my life I've longed for this

Someone who makes me happy

Let's seal this moment with a kiss

I wanna know

And nothing's gonna stop me cuz'

 

Chorus:

I've been to the bottom

Now I'm back on top

When I'm feelin' the rhythm

As we start to rock

When ya get down to it

I belong to you

 

Though I'm not afraid

To let it show

I'll tell the world

I want everyone to know

There's nobody does

Me like you do (like you do)

 

All of my love is yours tonight

I live to make you happy

Nothin' has ever felt so right

I want it all and

Nothin's gonna stop me cuz

Repeat Chorus

 

When you touch me tender

And you reach my soul

When I start to weaken

And I lose control

When you get down to it

I belong to you

 

Chorus

 

Say that you love me boy

And I'll make it right

Hoh yeah

I'll rock your heart and soul

Till the morning light

Boy no I will yeah yeah

Hoo you know I belong to you

You know you belong to me

 

All of my love is yours tonight

I live to make you happy

Nothin' has ever felt so right

I want it all and

Nothin's gonna stop me cuz

 

Chorus

 

I belong to you,

You belong to me

I belong to you,

You belong to me

 

WHO DO YOU LOVE

 

Who do you love do you love love love

Who do you love do you love

I got a feeling you're the boy for me

I bet your love can set me free

I feel a love thing going

It started weak then got oh so strong

 

Strong enough to rock the world

Straight up I wanna be your girl

So I keep praying to the stars above

That it's me who you're gonna love

 

Am I the one (yeah)

Is she the one

Who do you love

 

Chorus:

(Who) Who do you love

I wanna know

Could it be me

Won't you tell me so

Who do you love

You've got to say

Don't wanna go

Why can't I stay

 

I keep pushing so you'll be mine

We'll be loving baby over time

My sensitivity gets so high

It keeps me dreaming that you're my guy

 

Then I have to stop and check myself

Could it be that you love someone else

I can't give in to jealousy

So touch me now if you love me Am I the one (come on now)

Is she the one (make up your mind)

Who do you love

Am I the one (who do you love huh)

Is she the one

Who do you love

Am I the one (am I the one)

Is she the one (Is she the one)

Who do you love

Am I the one (I'm waiting)

Is she the one (I'm waiting...)

Who do you love

 

Chorus

 

WE DIDN'T KNOW

 

We didn't know we didn't know

Since I don't know when

We've been only friends

No more but no less

Our friendship we had at best

 

A voice to console

An ear to confide

That someone you tell

Your deepest of feelings inside

 

Chorus:

But we didn't know

When we held each other

It would feel so right

We didn't know

On that night we'd be falling in love

I looked at you

You looked at me

In ways we never thought we would be

But like tomorrow's today's mystery

We didn't know

 

Be it big, be it small

On you I could call

Nothing but to ask

You'd be right there in a flash

 

A hand I could hold

That friend I could trust

But the love that we shared

Was just platonic between us

 

Chorus

 

That's what happens

When innocent friends

Turn serious lovers

And we're so happy that

We've fallen in love

And still can be best of friends

 

When they'd break your heart

And when they'd make you cry

We both would confer

You should give love one more try

 

We've searched everywhere

For true love to find

Yet who'd think it was us

That we were longing for all the time

 

Cause we didn't know

When we held each other

It would feel so right

We didn't know

On that night we'd be falling in love

I looked at you

And you looked at me

In ways we never thought

We would be

But just like the future

No one can see

We didn't know

 

Chorus

 

AFTER WE MAKE LOVE

 

I've been waiting such a long time

For a love that's real to come my way

Gonna take some getting used to

Now that love is here to stay

 

Chorus:

After we make love

I'll be lost in the afterglow

You're all I'm dreaming of

I just can't l just can't let the feeling go

After we make love

There's no doubt in my mind I've been touched by

All that heaven and earth will allow

All that matters is right here and now

 

Now the world is filled with wonder

You've turned my life around in just one day

I love the spell you've put me under

Just one kiss can take my breath away

 

Chorus

 

All those lonely days and nights

Were well worth going through

I'm so glad I never gae my heart away

It's like I waited all my life

So I could give it all to you

 

I've been waiting such a long time

For a love that's real to come my way

It's gonna take some getting used to

Now that love is here to stay

 

Chorus:

After we make love

Feels so good to be lost in the afterglow

After we make love

I just can't l just can't let the feeling go

After we make love

There's no doubt in my mind I've been touched by

All that heaven and earth will allow

All that matters is right here and now

All that matters is right here and now

 

I'M KNOCKIN'

 

Who's to say it's easy

Sometimes life's not fair

I've heard some say

Just knock the door will open

And when it does

You'll find love standing there

 

Chorus:

And if it's true I'm knockin'

Come open up the door

My heart's been right here waiting

For someone to adore

Well if it's true, I'm knockin'

Come open up the door

My heart's been right here waiting

For someone to adore

Say if it's true

 

In sight we have two choices

And it's told me to do or die

And every word he speaks makes me certain

Beyond the door's life's reason why

 

Chorus

 

Knock and the door will open

The door will open

Look and you will find it

Look and you will find it

For certain it's true

For me and for you

When love comes and knocks

Here's the right thing to do

 

Chorus

 

Cmon, knock on the door

It will open, I'm knockin'

Please open up the door yeah

My heart's been right here waiting

Someone to adore

Ask me what I want

Peace of mind

Ask me what I don't

Waste of (my) time

Tell me that it's true

And you will find me knockin'

 

I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU

 

If I should stay

I would only be in your way

So I'll go but I know

I'll think of you every step of the way

 

And I will always love you

Will always love you

 

You, my darling you

 

Bittersweet Memories

That is all I'm taking with me

So goodbye please don't cry

We both know I'm not what you

You need

 

And I will always love you

I will always love you

 

I hope life treats you kind

And I hope you have all you dreamed of

And I wish to you joy and happiness

But above all this, I wish to you love

 

And I will always love you

Will always love you

I will always love

Will always love you...

Will always love you...

 

I will always love you

Oh, I'll always, I'll always love you

 

I HAVE NOTHING

 

Share my life

Take me for what I am

Cuz I'll never change

All my colors for you

Take my love

I'll never ask for too much

Just all that you are

And everything that you do

 

I don't really need to look

Very much farther

I don't wanna go

Where you don't follow

I don't hold it back again

This passion inside

Can't run from myself

There's nowhere to hide

 

Chorus:

Don't make me close one more door

I don't wanna hurt anymore

Stay in my arms if you dare

Must I imagine you there?

Don't walk away from me

I Have Nothing

Nothing

Nothing, if i don't have you

 

You see through

Right to the heart of me

You break down my walls

With the strength of your love

I never knew

Love like I known it's with you

Will the memories survive?

One I can hold on to

 

I don't really need to look

Very much farther

I don't wanna go

Where you don't follow

I don't hold it back again

This passion inside

Can't run from myself

There's nowhere to hide

You're the love I remember forever

 

Chorus

 

Don't walk away from me

Don't walk away from me

Don't you dare walk away from me

I have nothing

Nothing

Nothing, if I don't have you

You, if I don't have you

 

I'M EVERY WOMAN

 

Whatever you want

Whatever you need

Anything you want done baby

I'll do it naturally

Cuz I'm every woman (every woman)

It's all in me

It's all in me

 

Chorus:

I'm every woman

It's all in me

Anything you want done baby

I'll do it naturally

I'm every woman

It's all in me

I can read your thoughts right now

Every word from A to Z

 

I can cast a spell

Secrets you can't tell

Mix a special groove

Put fire inside of you

Anytime you feel danger or fear

Then instantly, I will appear

 

Chorus

 

I can sense your needs

Like rain unto the seeds

I can make a rhyme

Of confusion in your mind

And when it comes

To some good old-fashioned love

I got it, I got it

got it got it baby

 

Chorus

 

I ain't braggin'

Cuz I'm the one

Just ask me

Ooh it shall be done

Don't bother to compare

I got it got it

got it got it baby

 

Chorus

 

I'm every woman (Chaka!)

I'm every woman (Chaka!)

 

RUN TO YOU

 

I know that when you look at me

There's so much that you just don't see

But if you would only take the time

I know in my heart you'll find

Oh, a girl who's scared sometimes

Who isn't always strong, can't you see the hurt in me?

I feel so all alone

 

Chorus:

I wanna run to you hoo hoo

I wanna run to you hoo hoo hoo

Won't you hold me in your arms

And keep me safe from harm?

I wanna run to you hoo hoo

But if I come to you hoo hoo hoo hoo

Tell me will you stay or will you run away

 

Each day, each day I play the role

Of someone always in control

But at night, I come home and turn the key

There's nobody there, no-one cares for me

Oh, what's the sense

Of trying hard to find your dreams

without someone to share it with

Tell me what does it mean

 

Chorus

 

Run away no

I need you here

I need you here to wipe away my tears

To kiss away my fears

If you only knew, how much I wanna run to you

 

Chorus

 

QUEEN OF THE NIGHT

 

Chorus:

I got the stuff that you want

I got the thing that you need

I got more than enough

To make you drop to your knees

Cuz I'm the queen of the night

Queen of the night oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah yeah

 

Don't make no difference

If I'm wrong or I'm right

I've got the feeling

That I'm willing tonight

Well I ain't nobody's angel

What can I say?

Well I'm just that way

 

Chorus

 

Just say say it again

 

You got a problem with the way that I am

They say I'm trouble

But I don't give a damn

But when I bad I know I'm better

I just wanna get you

And turn it up for you

 

Chorus

 

Just say say it again

 

(Guitar Solo)

 

Chorus

 

Just say say it again

When you've got friends to wish you well

You'll find a point when

You will exhale (yeah, yeah, say)

 

Chorus

 

Hearts are often broken

When there are words unspoken

In your soul there's

Answers to your prayers

If you're searching for

A place you know

A familiar face

Somewhere to go

You should look inside yourself

You're halfway there

 

Sometimes you'll laugh

Sometimes you'll cry

Life never tells us

The when's or why's

When you've got friends to wish you well

You'll find a point when

You will exhale (yeah, yeah, say)

In love eternally

Well as far as I can see

And like the river finds the sea

I was lost, now I'm free

Cuz I believe In you and me

When all the chips are down, baby

Then I will always be around

Just to be right where you are

I will never leave you out

I will always let you in, boy (oh baby)

To places no-one's ever been,

Deep inside, can't you see?

That I believe in you and me

 

Maybe I'm a fool

To feel the way I do

I will play the fool forever

Just to be with you forever

 

I believe in miracles

And love is the miracle

And yes, baby you're my dream come true

I was lost, now I'm free,

Oh, baby cuz I believe, I do believe, in you and me

See, I was lost, now I'm free

Cuz I believe in you and me

 

STEP BY STEP

 

Well there's a bridge and there's a river that I still must cross

As I'm going on my journey

Oh, I might be lost

And there's a road I have to follow, a place I have to go

Well no-one told me just how to get there

But when I get there I'll know

Cuz I'm taking it

 

Chorus:

Step By Step, Bit by Bit,

Stone By Stone (Yeah), Brick by Brick (Oh, yeah)

Step By Step, Day By Day, Mile by mile

 

And this old road is rough and ruined

So many dangers along the way

So many burdens might fall upon me

So many troubles that I have to face

 

Oh, but I won't let my spirit fail me

Oh, I won't let my spirit go

Until I get to my destination

I'm gonna take it slowly cuz I'm making it mine

 

Chorus:

Step By Step (you know I'm taking it), bit by bit (bit by bit, come move),

stone by stone (yeah), brick by brick (brick by brick by brick by brick)

Step by step (step by step uh-huh), day by day (day by day),

Mile by mile

Go your own way.

 

Say it, baby, don't give up

You got to hold on to what you got,

Oh, baby, don't give up,

I GO TO THE ROCK

 

Where do I go?

When there's nobody else to turn to

Who do I talk to?

When nobody wants to listen

Who do I lean on? Oh

When there is no foundation stable

I go to the rock

I know he is able, I go to the rock

 

Chorus:

I go to the rock of my salvation

I go to the stone that the builders rejected

I run to the mountain

And the mountain he stands by me

When the Earth all around me is sinking sand

On Christ the solid rock I stand

When I need a shelter I go to the rock

 

Where do I go, where do I go

When the storms of life are threatening

Who do I turn to when those winds of sorrow blow

And is there a refuge in the time of tribulation

Go to the rock, I know he is able

I go to the rock

 

Chorus

 

I go the rock when I need a friend

When I need a friend

And when the Earth around me is sinking sand

On Christ the solid rock I stand I can stand

When I need a friend

I go to the rock

I can go to the rock

Chorus

 

YOU WERE LOVED

 

We all wanna make a place in this world

We all want our voices to be heard

Every one wants a chance to be someone

We all have dreams we need to dream

Sweeter than any star you can reach

Cuz when you reach and find, you've found someone

You'll hold this world's most priceless thing

The greatest gift this life can bring

Is when you look back and know

You were loved

 

Chorus:

You were loved by someone

Touched by someone

Held by someone

Meant something to someone

Loved somebody

Touched somebody's heart

Along the way

You can look back and say

You were loved (yes you were)

 

You can have diamonds in your hands

Have all the riches in the land

But, without love,

You don't really have a thing, no no

When somebody cares that you're alive

When somebody trusts you with their life

That's when you'll know (huh)

That you have all you need

You'll hold this world's most priceless gift

The finest treasure that there is

You can look back and know

You were loved

 

Chorus

 

Bridge:

So many roads that you can take

Whatever way you go

Don't take that road alone

It's better you should know

 

Chorus:

You were loved by someone

Touched by someone

Held by someone

Meant something to someone

Loved somebody

Touched somebody's heart

Along the way

You can look back and say

You did okay

You were loved

 

So remember to tell that special one (yeah)

You were loved

You were loved

You were loved

You were loved

 

MY HEART IS CALLING

 

Who would've thought of it

That I might feel like this

Some kind of wonderful

Is nothing quite comparable

 

Nothing about it

It's all so innocent

I wasn't looking for it

Came knocking on my door

 

I'm trying to do things right

But I'm about to lose a fight

Cuz spending time with you

Well it feels so good

And that's the truth

 

And everyday with you

I swear it brings me closer

To my only reservation

Is you, my sweet temptation, baby

 

Chorus:

(Oh oh) All my heart is calling

I'm falling for you

(Oh oh) All my heart is calling

I'm falling for you

 

Who would imagine that

I'd find my happiness

Someone I barely know

I'd like to take it slow

 

You're so different boy

You're breaking all my rules

What is it in your smile

That makes me feel the way that I do

 

I'm trying to live my life

And I'm, I'm trying to live it right

If I desire you

Well it ain't because I'm trying to

But everyday with you

It brings me closer

To my only reservation

Is you, my sweet temptation baby

 

Chorus

 

Bridge:

I've given it consideration

But it all adds up to you

I won't deny this heart is calling for you baby

I've given it a lot of thought

And it all ends up on you

My sweet temptation

God knows I'm falling for you

 

Chorus

 

(Fade away with "I don't know why boy, I don't know why baby")

 

WHO WOULD IMAGINE A KING

 

Mommies and daddies always believe

That their little angels are special indeed

And you could grow up to be anything

But who would imagine a king

 

A shepherd or teacher is what you could be

Or maybe a fisherman out on the sea

Or maybe a carpenter building things

But who would imagine a king

 

It was so clear when the wise men arrived

And the angels were singing your name

That the world would be different cuz you were alive

That's what heaven stood to proclaim

 

One day an angel said quietly

That soon he would bring something special to me

And of all those wonderful gifts he bring

 

Who would imagine, who could imagine

Who would imagine a king

Mmm hmm

(Bobbi Kristina): Mommy

IT'S NOT RIGHT, BUT IT'S OKAY

 

Friday night you and your boys went out to eat

Then they hung out,but you came home around three

If six of ya'll went out then four of you were really cheap

'Cause only two of you had dinner

I found your credit card receipt

 

Chorus:

It's not right but it's okay

I'm gonna make it anyway

Pack your bags up and leave

Don't you dare come running back to me

It's not right but it's okay

I'm gonna make it anyway

Close the door behind you

Leave your key

I'd rather be alone than unhappy

 

I'm packing bags so you can leave town for a week

The phone rings then you look at me (why'd you turn and look at me)

Said it was one of your friends

Down on 54th street boy

So why did 213 show up on your caller ID

I've been through all this before

So how could you think

That I would stand around and take some more

Things are gonna change

Cause I won't be a fool anymore

That's why you have to leave

So don't turn around to see my face

There's no more tears left here for you to see

 

Was it really worth you going out like that - tell me

See I'm moving on and I refuse to turn back

See all of this time I thought I had somebody down for Whitney

It turns out you were making a fool of me

 

Chorus

 

It's not right but it's okay - [It's not right - so okay baby]

I'm gonna make it anyway [I can pay my own rent]

Pack your bags up and leave [pay my light bill - take care of my babies]

Don't you dare come running back to me

It's not right but it's okay

I'm gonna make it anyway [get up and leave]

Close the door behind you

Leave your key

I'd rather be alone than unhappy

 

It's not right but it's okay [I'm gonna be okay, I'm gonna be alright]

I'm gonna make it anyway [I'm gonna be okay, I'm gonna be alright]

Pack your bags up and leave [I'm gonna be okay, I'm gonna be alright]

Don't you dare come running back to me

It's not right but it's okay [I'm gonna be okay, I'm gonna be alright]

I'm gonna make it anyway [I'm gonna be okay, I'm gonna be alright]

Close the door behind you [I'm gonna be okay, I'm gonna be alright]

Leave your key

I'd rather be alone than unhappy [there's no more tears left here for you to see]

HEARTBREAK HOTEL

 

This is the heartbreak hotel

This is the heartbreak hotel

This is the heartbreak hotel

This is the heartbreak hotel

This is the heartbreak hotel

This is the heartbreak hotel

This is the heartbreak hotel

This is the heartbreak hotel

 

You said that you'd be here by nine

Instead you took your time

You didn't think to call me boy

Here I sit trying not to cry

Asking myself why you do this to me

 

Since you're not around for me to tell you baby face to face

I'm writing you this letter, and this is what I have to say:

All I really wanted was some of your time

Instead you told me lies

When someone else was on your mind

What you do to me

Look what you did to me

I thought that you were someone who would do me right

Until you played with my emotions and you made me cry

What you do to me

Can't take what you did to me

 

Now I see that you been doing wrong

You played me all along

And made a fool of me, baby

You got it all wrong to think that I wouldn't find out

That you were cheating on me

How could you do it to me

 

Since you're not around for me to tell you baby face to face

I'm writing you this letter, and this is what I have to say:

All I really wanted was some of your time

Instead you told me lies

When someone else was on your mind

What you do to me

Look what you did to me

I thought that you were someone who would do me right

Until you played with my emotions and you made me cry

What you do to me

Can't take what you did to me

 

Heartbreak hotel

This is the heartbreak hotel

This is the heartbreak hotel

This is the heartbreak hotel

This is the heartbreak hotel [this is the heartbreak]

This is the heartbreak hotel [welcome to the heartbreak hotel]

This is the heartbreak hotel

This is the heartbreak hotel [why'd you do it]

This is the heartbreak hotel

 

All I really wanted was some of your time

Instead you told me lies

When someone else was on your mind

What you do to me

Look what you did to me

I thought that you were someone who would do me right

Until you played with my emotions and you made me cry

What you do to me

Can't take what you did to me

 

All I really wanted was some of your time

Instead you told me lies

When someone else was on your mind

What you do to me

Look what you did to me

I thought that you were someone who would do me right

Until you played with my emotions and you made me cry

What you do to me

Can't take what you did to me

 

I aint gon' take it

I aint gon' take it no more

I aint gon take it boy

I aint gon' take it no more

 

Everything that you said was a lie

Don't lie to me

Tell me what it is and I will be alright

 

MY LOVE IS YOUR LOVE

 

Clap your hands y'all it's alright

Turn me up

Turn me up

Turn me up

 

If tomorrow is judgement day  (sing mommy)

And I'm standing on the front line

And the Lord ask me what I did with my life

I will say I spent it with you

 

If I wake up in World War Three

I see destruction and poverty

And I feel like I wanna home

It's okay if you comin' with me

 

Chorus:

'Cause your love is my love

And my love is your love

It would take an eternity to break us

And the chains of Amistad couldn't hold us

Your love is my love

And my love is your love

It would take an eternity to break us

And the chains of Amistad couldn't hold us

 

If I lose my fame and fortune

And I'm homeless on the street

And I'm sleeping in Grand Central Station

It's okay if you're sleeping with me

 

As the years they pass us by

We stay young through each other's eyes

And no matter how old we get

It's okay as long as I got you babe

 

Chorus

 

If I should die this very day

Don't cry, cause on earth we wasn't meant to stay

And no matter what people day

I'll be waiting for you after judgement day

 

Chorus

 

Clap your hands

I said the record is not over yet

 

WHEN YOU BELIEVE

 

Many nights we've prayed

With no proof anyone could hear

In our hearts a hopeful song

We barely understood

Now we are not afraid

Although we know there's much to fear

We were moving mountains

Long before we knew we could

 

Chorus:

There can be miracles

When you believe

Though hope is frail

It's hard to kill

Who knows what miracles

You can achieve

When you believe

Somehow you will

You will when you believe

 

In this time of fear

When prayer so often proves in vain

Hope seemed like the summer birds

Too swiftly flown away

Yet now I'm standing here

My heart's so full I can't explain

Seeking faith and speaking words

I never thought I'd say

 

Chorus

 

They don't always happen when you ask

And it's easy to give in to your fear

But when you're blinded by your pain

Can't see your way safe through the rain

Thought of a still resilient voice

Says love is very near

 

There can be miracles

When you believe

Though hope is frail

It's hard to kill

Who knows what miracles

You can achieve

When you believe

Somehow you will

Now you will

You will when you believe

 

You will when you believe

Just believe

Gotta believe

You will when you believe

 

IF I TOLD YOU THAT

 

Now tell me how you feel

If I told you that I have feelings for you

And would it be so wrong to say

What's on my mind

I'm sorry I have to

We've been friends but with time

What I feel deep inside for you has changed

But I'd give up on love, if I thought

That it was untrue for you

 

Chorus:

If I told you that

I wanted to see you

And if I told you that

I there to please you

If I told you that

I'd always keep you

What would you say

If I told you that

 

I know that we were just friends

But what if I decide to bring somethings in

I hope it won't offend the trust we have cause I

Don't want this to end

If you think that we'll lose what we have

Then I'd just rather stay the same

Cause I don't wanna choose

Between two of the most precious things to me

 

Chorus

 

If we take this chance

And extend to each other romance

I hope it would be

The right thing for you and me

If I told you that

I wanted to see you

And if I told you that

I there to please you

If I told you that

I'd always keep you

What would you say

If I told you that

 

Would you be there for me

Could you dare to hold me

Will my feelings leave me

Lonely if I told you

 

IN MY BUSINESS

 

Baby why I get so many people

Telling me they seen you up in the mall

Are they mistaking

All up on some chick as though I don't exist

What is this

 

Chorus:

Why they all in our business

It's just too ridiculous

I can't get no sleep

They just keep warning me

Should I believe it

They say I don't need it

Don't they know I made up my mind

 

Honey too many people say you're faking me

They ask what have you done lately

They say we won't last

They're predicting

That it's over it's over

 

Too many girls they dislike me

Since I got you They wanna fight me

'Cause I'm the chick walking around with the ring

Tell me why these hoes don't even like me

Too many girls they dislike me

Since I got you They wanna fight me

'Cause I'm the chick walking around with the ring

Tell me why these hoes don't even like me

 

Why they all up in our business

It's just too ridiculous

I can't get no sleep

They just keep warning me

Should I believe it

They say I don't need it

Don't they know I made up my mind

 

Chorus

 

Oh boy

It's all the love that you're giving

They mad cause love is what they're missing

That's why they stay up in our business

 

They all up in our business

 

Chorus

 

Why you all in my business

Get a job

 

I LEARNED FROM THE BEST

 

Did you really think that

I would really take you back

Let you back in my heart one more time

Ooh no no

Did you think that I’d still care

That there’d be more feeling there

Did you think you could walk back in my life

 

So you found you miss the love you threw away

Baby but you found it out too late

Too late

 

Chorus:

And so you know the way it feels to cry

The way that I cried when you broke my world in two

Baby I learned the way to break a heart

I learned from the best

I learned from you

Oh baby now

I learned from you

 

I remember cold nights

Tears I though would never dry

How you shattered my world

With your goodbye

Your goodbye baby

Would’ve sold my soul then

Just to have you back again

Now you’re the last thing on my mind

 

Now you say your sorry and

You’ve changed your ways

Sorry but you changed you ways too late

 

Chorus

 

So when all you’ve got are sleepless nights

When those tears are clouding up your eyes

Just remember it was you who said goodbye

Who said goodbye

 

And so you know the way it feels to cry

The way that I cried when you broke my world in two

Baby I learned the way to break a heart

I learned from the best

I learned from you

Oh baby now

I learned from you

I learned from the best

I learned from you

 

OH YES

 

I say yes boy [say yes]

Ooh yes [oh yes]

I say yes boy

Ooh yes

 

The day you held me in your arms

I still smell the scent of you

On my dress unbelievable

You was so masculine

The way I felt youir chest up next to mine

Felt you in my heart

Now I breathe love

 

Chorus:

You are so amazing unbelievable baby

It's you that make me smile

When everything gets crazy

You're the one I love

No other man can faze me 'cause

You're in my heart

I'm in your heart

Every minute daily

 

Chorus

 

Yes [say yes]

Yes [I say yes]

Yes [I say yes]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yes [oh yes]

Yes [oh yes]

Yes

 

The time you looked into my eyes

I felt like falling in love

And I was mesmerized

'Cause it's something you do

That makes me feel this way

I can't explain

You're my joy

My peace

My happiness

And you you you you baby

 

Chorus

 

Chorus

 

Yes [I say yes boy]

Yes [ooh yes]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

You're the best love I ever knew

Ain't nobody do me like you do

Put that down on my last dime

No one else run-runnin' my time

Everything about you I love

You were sent from the stars above

You get here to rescue me

Well now I'm free

 

You're the best love I ever knew

Ain't nobody do me like you do

Put that down on my last dime

No one else run-runnin' my time

Everything about you I love

You were sent from the stars above

You get here to rescue me

I'm free

 

Chorus

 

You are so amazing unbelievable baby

It's you that make me smile

When everything gets crazy

You're the one I love

No other man can faze me 'cause

You're in my heart

I'm in your heart

Every minute daily

 

GET IT BACK

 

[Ya'll ready]

{Whitney]

[Darkchild]

[Could get it back - could could get it back]

 

Remember when It all began

We were all in love

Then came the friends

Telling you when your time for me was good enough

I constantly had to compete

With you crew and their schemes

Remembering back in the day

I used to mean everything

 

Chorus:

If we could just get it back

To the way it used to be

My only wish would be that

Nothing would change with you and me

I remember how it was

And I know that for a fact

We were oh so deep in love

If we could just get it back

 

Now tell me why

So many nights

You had so much to do baby

When you said bye

Sometimes I tried

I tried to make you choose

Now tell me how you can allow

You're boys to control [darlin']

The time we shared

It was unfair

But now you need to know

 

Now if I told you

That I'm moving on

Boy what would you do

Things just ain't the same

We were supposed to

Conquer everything yeah yeah now

Boy let me tell you

You're got to make a change [oh boy]

 

Chorus

 

If we could just get it back [can we do it can we do it can we do it can we do it now baby]

To the way it used to be

My only wish would be that

Nothing would change with you and me

I remember how it was

And I know that for a fact

We were oh so deep in love

If we could just get it back

 

[Remember how we used to dance]

[I like the way we used to dance]

[Girl let me see you dance]

[Dance with me dance with me]

[Remember how we used to dance]

[I like the way we used to dance]

[Girl let me see you dance]

[Dance with me dance with me]

 

Chorus

 

Now if I told you [gettin' it back to the way it used to be]

Boy what would you do [show me show me show me]

 

If we could just get it back

 

If we could just get it back

 

UNTIL YOU COME BACK

 

I lost my heart

A long time ago

You make me feel

Like no one had before

Boy you made me love you

Then you walked out the door 

See I will not rest

Until you say I'm forever yours

 

And boy I won't stop at nothing

I won't give you up and

You've gotta feel something I know

I will not love again

Until you come back

Come back to my arms

'Til you come back to me baby

Until you come back

Don't care how long

It's not important to me

Don't care how far

Love's never too far for me

I just might be crazy

When it comes to my heart

But I can not rest

Until the day we're no longer apart

 

And boy I won't stop at nothing

I won't get you up and

You've gotta feel sometimes I know

I will not love again

Until you come back

Come back to my arms

'Til you come back to me baby

Until you come back to me

 

Nobody plays with my heart

You can't walk away from it all

You can run but your heart cannot hide

'Cause it knows you belong in my life

 

And boy I won't stop at nothing

I won't give you up and

You've gotta feel sometimes I know

I will not love again

Until you come back

Come back to my arms

'Til you come back to me baby

Until you come back to me

'Til you come back to me baby

Come on home

Come home

To me

 

I BOW OUT

 

Tired of playing this game

And I won’t play it no more

And I won’t take it no more

Through with being your fool

And I won’t do it no more

And I won’t

I won’t keep up this act

Not for one minute

I’m gonna pull I’m gonna pull this curtain down

 

Chorus:

This time I won’t play this game

I made a vow to make a change and

I Bow Out [I won’t be hanging around baby]

I decline to take the pain and

I resign the masquerade

I Bow Out [I won’t be staying around baby]

I Bow Out

 

Can’t go on with the show

Your just a stage I went through

Now your just fading from view [yeah]

Time for a change of scene

Guess I’ll be taking my leave

I guess I won’t, I won’t stay in this play

Not for one minute

I gonna make

I wanna make my exit now

 

Chorus

 

When your left standing on that stage all alone

Maybe you will realise

You should have learned to treat me right

And when this final act is finally through

Maybe you’ll wish you’d been

The kind of man you should have been

Now watch me say goodbye

And walk right out of your life

This time I won’t play this game [this time - this I made up my mind]

I made a vow to make a change and

I Bow Out [I won’t be hanging around baby]

I decline to take the pain and [I decline boy]

I resign the masquerade and [no more sayin']

I Bow Out [I won’t be staying around baby]

I Bow Out

This time I won’t play this game

I made a vow to make a change and

I Bow Out [said I - gotta - I gotta bow out]

I decline to take the pain and [do you believe it]

I resign the masquerade and [do you hear me - do you hear me baby]

I Bow Out [I won’t be staying around baby]

I Bow Out

 

YOU'LL NEVER STAND ALONE

 

If there's a time when the tears should fill your eyes

And you can't see past the shadows

To the sun on the other side

Don't despair

Because there always will be someone there

Don't lose faith

Love won't let you lose your way because You

 

Chorus:

You'll never stand alone

I'll be standing by

I'll keep you from the cold

I'll hold you when you cry

I'll be there to be strong

When you can't find the strength inside

And you

You'll always have a home

In these arms of mine

You'll never stand alone

Love is standing by

 

If there's a day

When the rain should find your heart

And you're cold and tried and lonely

And this would has you in the dark

Don't be scared

You can just reach for me and I'll be there

Don't lose hope

Love will see you through you know

Because you

 

Chorus

 

Standing by to lift you above all the hurt and pain

Standing by to carry you through

All the tears and rain

Reach for me

I'll be with you

Reach for me

I'll see you through

I'll be the one to hold you

The one to show you that you

 

Chorus

 

Love is standing by

 

I WAS MADE TO LOVE HIM

 

I was born in Newark, sho' was

Bob's from Orchard Park, now

We're always hand in hand

He wore hightop shoes and shirt tails

Nip wore here pig tails

I know I loved him even then

 

You know some disapproved it

They even boohooed it

But I told them time and time and time again

You know I was made to love him

Build my world around him

Yeah Hey hey hey

 

He's been my inspiration

Showed appreciation

For the love I gave him through the years

Like a sweet magnolia tree

My love blossomed tenderly

My love grew sweeter through the years

 

I know - my baby loves me

My baby needs me

That's why we made it through the years

I was made to love him

Worship and adore him

Ya'll say Hey hey hey

 

All through thick and thin

Our love just won't end

'Cause I love my baby love my baby

My baby loves me

My baby needs me

And I know I ain't going nowhere

 

I was just a little thang

When that love bug bit me

I had the fever with each passing year

 

If ocean tumbles

And the whole world crumbles

By his side I'll still be standing there

 

'Cause I was made to love him

Made to live for him say hey hey hey

I was made to love him

Built my world all around him

SAME SCRIPT, DIFFERENT CAST

 

Um, hey, Deb…

Mmmmmm hmmmmm….?

Thank you for being woman enough to come

Whitney, what's this about?

I know he's leaving me for you

Who said that, who told you?

That is true

What is he telling you

Could it be the same things that he told me?

He told me that he loved me

I heard that

He told me I was beautiful

Huh

How did you know? How did you know?

Because I played the scene before

 

This is a retake of my life

I was his star for many nights

Now the roles have changed and you're the leading lady in his life

Just remember you've been warned

Enjoy it now, cuz it won't last

What you're saying could be true

But how can I take advice from you?

I'm not hating

But I wish the one before me would have warned me too baby

Don't say no more - lalalalalalala

Uncover your ears, girl

I'm not listening - lalalalalalalala

But I know you hear me

Maybe my reasons are wrong

But I know that you believe me

I was his star for many nights

Now the roles have changed and you're the leading lady in his life

Lights, camera, now you're on

Just remember you've been warned

It's your fault you didn't love him enough

That's the problem, I loved him too much

And when you love him he becomes unattracted to you

Oh, no - he's changing now, prove you wrong

No, you won't

So go away - leave us the hell alone! See, he loves me

He'll hurt you

He'll stay with me

He'll leave you

For sure, For sure

 

This is a retake of my life.

Retake of my life

Yes it is

I was his star for many nights

Star for many, many, many, many nights

Just remember you've been warned

Enjoy it now, cuz this WILL last

I'm his future, you're his past

COULD I HAVE THIS KISS FOREVER

 

Over and over I look in your eyes

You are all I desire

You have captured me

I want to hold you

I want to be close to you

I never want to let go

 

I wish that this night would never end

I need to know

 

Could I hold you for a lifetime

Could I look into your eyes

Could I have this night to share this night together

Could I hold you close beside me

Could I hold you for all time

Could I could I have this kiss forever

Could I could I have this kiss forever, forever

 

Over and over I've dreamed of this night

 

Now you're here by my side

You are next to me

I want to hold you and touch you and taste you

And make you want no one but me

 

I wish that this kiss could never end

Oh baby please

 

Could I hold you for a lifetime

Could I look into your eyes

Could I have this night to share this night together

Could I hold you close beside me

Could I hold you for all time

Could I could I have this kiss forever

Could I could I have this kiss forever, forever

 

I don't want any night to go by

Without you by my side

I just want all my days

Spent being next to you

Lived for just loving you

And baby, Oh by the way

 

Could I hold you for a lifetime

Could I look into your eyes

Could I have this night to share this night together

Could I hold you close beside me

Could I hold you for all time

Could I could I have this kiss forever

Could I could I have this kiss forever, forever

 

FINE

 

It's Fine

Fine, Fine, Fine, Fine, Fine

 

It's Alright

 

Had a dream last night

And the world stopped turning

But your madness, it kept on

Guess I wasn't too bright

And I really wasn't learning

Should have seen it all along

 

All those sweet, sweet kisses and those sweet red roses

They convinced me that it was you

I made you exclusive

Now it's so conclusive

That you wasn't doing it too

 

If you'd told me from the start that you're playing around I would have been fine

It would have been fine

Then I wouldn't be doing this I would have had a good time

If you'd told me from the start that you're playing around it would have been fine

Then I would have played too and I guess I would have had a good time

 

Something didn't feel right

And I wish I knew it

I just could not see your games

I got respect for you

And you put me through it

Why would you bring me so much pain

 

I would steal them for you

As I did adore you

While my dogs would chew you out

Tried to be so nice on those lonely nights

But I should have figured you out

 

If you'd told me from the start that you're playing around it would have been fine

It would have been fine

Then I wouldn't be doing this I would have had a good time

I would have had a good time

If you'd told me from the start that you're playing around it would have been fine

It would have been you baby

Then I would have played too and I guess I would have had a good time

 

Baby you're so fine

You are the one that I saw

You are so fine

Your love was sent from above

Oh you're mighty fine

You're fine-fine, fine-fine, fine-fine, fine-fine, fine-fine

You are the one that I love

Your love was sent from above

You're fine-fine, fine-fine, fine-fine, fine-fine, fine

Fine

You are the one that I love

Fine

Your love was sent from above

You're fine-fine, fine-fine, fine-fine, fine-fine, fine

 

If you'd told me from the start that you're playing around it would have been fine

If you told me

Then I would have played too and I guess I would have had a good time

Feel good time, feel good time, feel good time, feel good time

If you'd told me from the start that you're playing around it would have been fine

Had a real good time, boy now

Then I would have played too and I guess I would have had a good time

I guess I would have had a good time

If you'd told me from the start that you're playing around it would have been fine

It would have been fine, boy

Then I would have played too and I guess I would have had a good time

If you'd told me from the start that you're playing around it would have been fine

It's fine, it's fine, it's fine

Then I would have played  too and I guess I would have had a good time

Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine

If you'd told me from the start that you're playing around it would have been fine

Then I would have played too and I guess I would have had a good time

 

IF YOU SAY MY EYES ARE BEAUTIFUL

 

If you say my eyes are beautiful

It's because they're looking at you

And if you could only see yourself

You'd feel the same way too

You could say that I am a dreamer

Who's had a dream come true

If you say my eyes are beautiful

It's because they're looking at you

 

If you wonder why I'm smiling

It's because I'm happy with you

And the warm sensations touch my heart

And fill me through and through

I could hold you close forever

And never let you go

If you say my eyes are beautiful

It's because I just love you so

 

Now, my heart is an open door

Won't you come inside for more

You give love so sweetly now

Take my love take me completely now

If you say my eyes are beautiful

It's because they're looking at you

And my eyes are just the window

For my feelings to come through

And by far you are more beautiful

Than anything I ever knew

If you say my eyes are beautiful

If you say my eyes are beautiful

If you say my eyes my eyes are beautiful

 

It's because, it's because, they're looking at you

 

ONE MOMENT IN TIME

 

Each day I live

I want to be a day to give the best of me

I'm only one but not alone

My finest day is yet unknown

I broke my heart for every gain

To taste the sweet I face the pain

I rise and fall yet through it all this much remains

 

I want one moment in time

When I'm more than I thought I could be

When all of my dreams are a heart beat away

And the answers are all up to me

Give me one moment in time

When I'm racing with destiny

Then in that on moment of time

I will feel I will feel eternity

 

I've lived to be the very best

I want it all no time for less

I've laid the plans

Now lay the chance here in my hands

 

Give me one moment in time

When I'm more than I thought I could be

When all of my dreams are a heart beat away

And the answers are all up to me

Give me one moment in time

When I'm racing with destiny

Then in that on moment of time

I will feel I will feel eternity

 

You're a winner for a lifetime

If you seize that one moment in time

Make it shine

 

Give me one moment in time

When I'm more than I thought I could be

When all of my dreams are a heart beat away

And the answers are all up to me

Give me one moment in time

When I'm racing with destiny

Then in that on moment of time

I will be I will be

I will be free....oh

I will be I will be free....

 

WHATCHULOOKINAT

 

It's time for you to strike back

They're lookin' at you (well well well well well....)

Whitney Houston (ooh...ooh...n'oooh....)

Muhammad 2 G

They're watching your every move (Bobby...)

They're watching you

 

Chorus:

Why you lookin' at me

Don't get mad at me

'Cause I'm still gonna be me

(Tell me, Tell me, Tell me)

(Tell me, Tell me, Tell me)

Whatchulookinat

I feel your eyes on me

You been telling lies on me

(Tell me, Tell me, Tell me)

Whatchulookinat

(Tell me, Tell me, Tell me)

 

See I don't understand

Why you keep peepin' me

When you don't even like me

You're after me and my man

Don't think you're stressing me

'Cause your lies don't excite me, no no

 

(Never thought)

Never thought, Never thought

(Never knew)

Never knew that you would do this to me

Do this to me

(Try to ruin me) Ruin me

(Be my enemy) Be my enemy

(Never thought)

Never thought, Never thought, Never thought

(That you) That you

(Would act as if you're cool with me)

So why you lookin' at me

 

Chorus

 

Oh you know when you're wrong

Don't wanna respect my song

But it's okay 'cause either way

My following is real strong

You try so hard to show the whole world what I do

Now I'm turning the cameras back on you

Same spotlight that once gave me fame

Trying to dirty up Whitney's name

No, no

 

(Never thought)

Never thought, Never thought, Never thought

(Never knew)

Never knew that you would do this to me

Do this to me

(Try to ruin me) Try to ruin me

(Be my enemy) Be my enemy

(Never thought)

Never thought, Never thought, Never thought

(That you) That you

(Would act as if you're cool with me)

Why you lookin' at me

 

Chorus

 

Why you lookin' at me

(Don't get mad at me) Don't get mad, don't get mad

('Cause I'm still gonna be) Still gon' be

(Tell me, Tell me, Tell me)

(Whatchulookinat)

 

C'mon, Uh:

Messin' with my reputation

Ain't even got no education

Trying to mess with my concentration

Don't even have a clue of what I'm facing

Oh you know you need to stop it

Defaming my name for a profit

God is the reason my soul is free

And I don't need you looking at me

 

(Don't get mad at me) Don't get mad

('Cause I'm still gonna be) Still gon' be me

(Tell me, Tell me, Tell me)

(Whatchulookinat)

(Tell me, Tell me, Tell me) Tell me, tell me, tell me

(Whatchulookinat)

(I feel your eyes on me)  See your eyes

(You been telling lies on me) Your lies, lies, lies

 

(Why you lookin' at me) Tell me - Whatchulookinat

(Don't get mad at me) Don't get mad

('Cause I'm still gonna be) Still gon' be me

(I feel your eyes on me)  Don't get mad

(You been telling lies on me) Still gon' be me

 

Whatchulookinat

 

Look at yourself

 

TELL ME NO

 

Reaching for my dreams

And you're so quick to say what I can't do

You criticise my actions

But I don't see you standing in my shoes

I'm going the wrong way

I'm doing the wrong things

Every word just gives me fuel

So c'mon c'mon c'mon c'mon c'mon c'mon c'mon

 

Chorus:

And tell me no

And I'll show you I can

Tell me no

I dig my feet right in

Tell me no

Just tell me that I can't win

So c'mon I'm sure I'll prove you wrong c'mon and go

Tell me no....

 

For every step I take

You're right there trying to block my next move

And if you're making me feel bad

Then tell me then do you feel good

I'm just human

All I'm doing is what my heart tells me I should

So c'mon c'mon c'mon c'mon c'mon c'mon c'mon

 

Chorus

 

No no no no no no

It motivates me more and more

And I think it's time you know

You've given me something to work for

And I can't wait for the day

I can rub things in your face

I ain't gon' stop 'til I'm done

I reach the top

I'm number one

But every time you try and tell me no

[Every time you try and tell me no]

It only makes me keep on keeping on

 

Chorus

 

[Carlos Santana guitar to fade]

 

[C'mon I'm sure I'll prove you wrong c'mon and go]

[Tell me no]

My Love

 

Some girls just wanna spend guys' money

Live their lives chasing the milk and honey

Silver lines their every fantasy

But you're lucky cause that ain't me, no

 

Most girls think guys are all the same

(Well...)

Not true so I can't take the blame

(My my)

I'll love you through the joy and pain

Even the coldest Georgia rain

 

See my love is like an open sky

(Open Sky)

See my heart is like a river wide

(River wide)

No my world would never ever run dry

It runs over for you and I

(You and I)

See my love is deeper than the sea

And sweeter than a pretty melody

So tell everybody that you're glad you got me

You can trust in my love

My L-O-V-E

(My love, My love, My)

 

Some think that love is just a word

(Just a word)

Because of all the things they've heard

(Things they heard)

They think they've gotta close their hearts

Can't see the light, they're so in the dark

But I know I got a real good man

Who loves me the best he can

That's why I'm here faithfully

cause you do the same for me

 

See my love is like an open sky

See my heart is like a river wide

(Like a river wide)

No my world would never ever run dry

It runs over for you and I

(My love my love my)

My love is deeper than the sea

Sweeter than a pretty melody

(Deep - Sweet - Melody)

So tell everybody that you're glad you got me

(Glad you got me)

You can trust in my love

My L-O-V-E

My love my love my

 

You gotta go through

The fire

The rain

The rain

Take the joy

Take the joy and endure the pain

Never give in

Give In

Don't give up

Don't give up

They can try but they'll never ever break my love

 

Sweet, sweet love

(Sweet, sweet love)

Sweet, sweet love

 

See my love, my love

 

See my love is like an open sky

(Open Sky)

See my heart is like a river wide

(River wide)

No my world would never ever run dry

(Oh, yeah)

It runs over for you and I

(Oh Oh Oh Ah!)

See my love is deeper than the sea

And sweeter than the pretty melody

So tell everybody that you're glad you got me

(Tell everybody)

You can trust in my love

My L-O-V-E

(My L-O-V-E)

My love my love my

 

See my love is like an open sky

(My love)

See my heart is like a river wide

(A river wide)

No my world would never ever run dry

LOVE THAT MAN

 

Things just ain't the way that they used to be

Back in the day when a man meant security

After been working hard all week

Baby kick back and throw up your feet

Let me fix you a little treat

Say it might be a little bit sweet

 

But he's worth it

He deserves it

May not be perfect

He's all the man I need

He's ready and willing

Gives me the feeling

And whenever we're together

I know I'm where I belong

 

Is it just the way he looks into your eyes

Love that man

It's the love he gives that makes you fantasize

Love that man

It's the time he takes to show you that he cares

And he's always there

Don't you love that man

 

I know

Things they ain't the way they used to be

When a woman and a man worked hard to be

Happy in love and stayed together

Let's stay that way forever

When you get into a fight

Just try and work it out

Never give up on him

That's not what love's about

Stay true to your feelings

And remember all the things he's done for you

 

Is it just the way he looks into your eyes

Love that man

It's the love he gives that makes you fantasize

Love that man

It's the time he takes to show you that he cares

And he's always there (he's always always there)

Don't you love that man

 

Is it just the way he looks into your eyes

Love that man

It's the love he gives that makes you fantasize

Love that man

It's the time he takes to show you that he cares (I do, I do)

And he's always there (he's always always there)

Don't you love that man

 

Better know I'm talking about that old school love

That everlasting feeling

Can't never be too much

Somebody loves you heart and soul

Hold on (hold on) don't stop (don’t stop)

Better never let him go

 

Is it just the way he looks into your eyes

Love that man

It's the love he gives that makes you fantasize

Ooh, Ooh, that man I do

It's the time he takes to show you that he cares (hey yeah)

And he's always there (he's always always there)

Don't you love that man

 

Is it just the way he looks into your eyes

Well I do, Well I do, Ooh

It's the love he gives that makes you fantasize

I love that man

It's the time he takes to show you that he cares

And he's always there (he's always there)

Don't you love that man (I love that man)

 

Is it just the way he looks into your eyes

Looks into my eyes - I love that man

It's the love he gives that makes you fantasize

I love that man

It's the time he takes to show you that he cares (I do, I do)

And he's always there (whenever we're together)

Don't you love that man

 

TRY IT ON MY OWN

 

I'm wiser now

I'm not the foolish girl you used to know

So long ago

I'm stronger now

I've learned from my mistakes which way to go

And I should know

I put myself aside to do it your way

But now I need to do it all alone

 

And I am not afraid to try it on my own

I don't care if I'm right or wrong

I'll live my life the way I feel

No matter what I'll keep it real, you know

Time for me to do it on my own

Yeah yeah, mmm, yeah yeah

 

It's over now

I can't go back to living through your eyes

Too many lies

And if you don't know by now

I can't go back to being someone else

Not anymore

I never had the chance to do things my way

So now it's time for me to take control

 

And I am not afraid to try it on my own

I don't care if I'm right or wrong

I'll live my life the way I feel

No matter what I'm gonna keep it real, you know, oh lord

Time for me to do it

 

Oh I start again go back to one

I'm running things in my way (my way)

Can't stop me now, I've just begun

Don't even think about it

There ain't no way around it

I'm taking names, for what is mine

Yes I'm gonna take my turn

It's time for me to finally stand alone, stand alone

 

I am not afraid to try it on my own

And I don't care if I'm right or wrong

I'll live my life the way I feel

No matter what I'm gonna keep it real, you know

It's time for me to do it

See I'm not afraid

 

I am not afraid to try it on my own

And I don't care if I'm right or wrong

I'll live my life the way I feel

No matter what I'm gonna keep it real, you know

It's time for me to do it

On my own

Hey

On, on my Own

Each time I made mistakes

I don’t think that I

Would be where I am today

I live my life without regret

What you see is what you see is what you see is what you get

 

And I’m

Unashamed of the life I lead

Unashamed of the strength of my needs

Of choices I’ve made

Of the love that I’ve saved

Of things I have done

My belief in the One

I know who they are

Make mistakes make amends

Follow my instincts, my star

On my sleeve I wear my heart

Unashamed

I'm counting all my blessings

And the gifts I have received

Something to overcome

Took all my life to understand

You wanna know how it goes

Do you wanna control how I feel

Do you wanna stay in my life

Then listen here and listen good

You got to get it got to get it got to get it right

Unashamed

 

Unashamed of the life I lead (Whoa)

Unashamed of the strength of my needs - Say what you want (Whoa)

YOU LIGHT UP MY LIFE

 

So many nights

I'd sit by my window

Waitin' for someone

To sing me a song

So many dreams

I kept deep inside me

Alone in the dark

But now you've come along

 

And you light up my life

You give me hope

To carry on

You light up my days

And fill my nights

With song

 

Rollin' at sea

Adrift on the waters

Could it be finally I'm turning for home

And finally a chance

To say I love you

Never again to be all alone

 

'Cause you

You light up my life

You give me hope

To carry on

You light up my days

And fill my nights

With song

 

'Cause you

You light up my life

You give me hope

To carry on

You light up my days

And fill my nights

Fill my nights with song

With song

 

You light up my life

You give me hope

To carry on

You light up my days

And fill my nights

With song

It can't be wrong

When it feels so right, Ooh

'Cause You

You light up my life

My Life

My Life

My Life

 

THE FIRST NOEL

 

The first Noel

The angel did say

Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay

In fields where they lay tending their sheep

On a cold winter's night that was so deep

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel

Born is the King of Israel

 

They looked up and saw a star

Shining in the the East beyond them far

And to the earth it gave great light

And so it continued both day and night

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel

Born is the King of Israel

 

Jesus, Oh yea

Christ is

Born Is The King of Israel

 

Oh

Jesus

Christ is born

Born is the King of Israel

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel

Born is the King of Israel

 

Jesus

The first Noel

Born is the King of King of

Yeah, Yeah

Christ is born

Hallelujah

He is born

Born is the King of all

 

THE CHRISTMAS SONG

 

Ooh, Yeah...

Oh, Lord

 

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire

Jack Frost nipping at your nose

Yuletide carols being sung by a choir

And folks dressed up like Eskimos

 

Everybody knows

A turkey and some mistletoe

Help to make the season bright

Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow

Will find it hard to sleep tonight

 

They know that Santa's on his way

He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh

Everybody's mother's child is gonna spy

To see if reindeer really know how to fly

 

And so I'm offering this simple phrase

From kids from 1 to 92

Although it's been said many times many ways

Merry Christmas

Happy Hanukkah

Happy Kwanzaa

Merry Christmas to all of you

 

Merry Christmas to everyone

ONE WISH

 

If there were no presents

Waiting on Santa's sleigh

What would I wish for Christmas

And if Frosty the snowman

Were melting away

I would wish for hope and unity

On Christmas day

 

If I had one wish

For Christmas

There would be joy and peace here on earth

If I had one wish

For Christmas this year

We would all come together as one

 

If Rudolph and his reindeer

Ran into delays

I'd still hope for joy this season

And if somehow Santa

Got lost on his way

I would try to find

A way to smile

Smile on Christmas day

 

If I had one wish

For Christmas

There would be joy and peace here on earth

If I had one wish

For Christmas this year

We would all come together as one

 

Oh, yeah

You know it ain't about all those material things

(No, no)

What you gotta think about

Is the love Christmas brings

 

If I had one wish

For Christmas

There would be joy and peace here on earth (Ooh, Ooh, Ooh)

If I had one wish (just one, just one)

For Christmas this year

That we'd all come together as one

 

Come together as one

We'd all

Come together as one

OH HOLY NIGHT

 

Oh holy night

The stars are brightly shining

It is the night of our dear Saviour's birth, oh yes it is

Long lay the world in sin and error pining

'Til he appeared and the soul felt it's worth

The thrill of hope

The weary world rejoices

For yonder breaks

A new and glorious morn

 

Fall on your knees

Oh hear the angel's voices

Oh night divine

Oh, Oh night when Christ was born

Oh night

Oh holy, holy night

Oh night divine

Fall on your knees

Oh hear the angel's voices

Oh night divine

Of a place I love

Even more than I usually do

And although I know

It’s a long road back

I promise you

 

I’ll be home for Christmas

You can count on me

Please have snow and mistletoe

And presents under the tree

 

Christmas eve will find me

Where the love light gleams

I’ll be home for Christmas

If only in my dreams

 

Oh, Yeah

 

I’ll be home for Christmas

You can count on me

Please have snow and mistletoe

And presents under the tree

He held me strong
And we danced the night away, oh

I can see the way that he's making me
Feel this way about his love
I've been looking for something like this
I'm saying oh oh oh oh

Chorus:
If he makes you feel like a million dollar bill
Say oh oh, say oh oh
Makes you go left, right, up, down
Got you spinning round and round
Say oh oh, say oh baby

It's been a long, long time
Since I felt that love has found my way, oh
I've been looking (looking)
I've been searching (searching)
For the man to touch this place, oh yeah

Can't deny the way that he's making me
Feel this way about his love
I've been searching for something like this
I'm saying oh oh oh oh

Chorus (2x)

If you feel good
If you're feeling good
Put one hand in the air, say yeah (yeah)
If you feel good (c'mon, come, c'mon)
If you're feeling good
It's 'cause love is in the air, oh yeah
Love is in the air

Chorus (2x)

Adlibs:
Oh
Oh if he makes you feel
Oh if he makes you feel
Yeah, yeah, yeah
C'mon and say
C'mon and say
Oh
Oh if he makes you feel
Oh if he makes you feel
C'mon and say
Oh
Oh baby

 

NOTHIN' BUT LOVE

 

Ooh
Oh baby

Here I sit by my window
Thinking 'bout all things that I've been through
There were times when I never
Thought I would get to where I got to
Help with angels to guide me
Some who just violated my love
Now this is my chance to say
Ain't got nothin' but love

For my family that raised me
Shout out, shout out
And my teachers that done praised me
Shout out, shout out
To anyone who tried to hate on me, yeah
Shout out, shout out
Even the ones who tried to break me
Even the ones who tried to take me down

Chorus:
There's been haters since this world's been going 'round
Nothin' but love
Why they take our dreams and try to crush 'em down
Nothin' but love, nothin' but love
I ain't even trying to hold onto that now
Nothin' but love, nothin' but love
Ain't got nothing but, nothing but love for ya
Nothin' but love, nothin' but love

I could hold onto pain
But that ain't what my life's about
I ain't blaming nobody
If I ain't got my stuff worked out
I got a lot for myself
Ain't gonna regret anything I've done
I just wanna sing my song
Ain't got nothin' but love

For all the players on the street
Shout out, shout out
To all my ghetto doing your thing
Keep on, keep strong
To all my exes that done wronged me
Stepped on me, can't hold me down, no

Chorus

To all the givers and the takers
To my crew from way back when (way back when)
To the goers and the stayers (oh yeah)
And the ones that I ain't met
For myself for sticking with me (for myself for sticking with me)
For the ones I'm missing up above (oh)
Anyone who's ever been a part of me
Ain't got nothin' but love
Nothin' but, nothin' but
I got nothin' but love

Chorus

Ain't got nothin' but, nothin' but love for ya
Nothin' but love, nothin' but love
Ain't got nothin' but, nothin' but love for ya
Nothing but love for you
Nothin' but love, nothin' but love
Ain't got nothin' but, nothin' but love for ya
Nothin' but love, nothin' but love
Ain't got nothin' but, nothin' but love for ya
Nothin' but love, nothin' but love
Ain't got nothin' but, nothin' but love for ya
Nothin' but love, nothin' but love

 

CALL YOU TONIGHT

 

Oh, oh
Oh, mmm
Oh, oh
Oh, mmm yeah

The stars must be aligned tonight
I believe this has to have a meaning
Lightning had to strike tonight
'Cause the two of us are finally meeting
In this place at this time
And I feel safe when I look in your eyes
I feel like I know you from another life
And it makes me wish I wasn't so pressed for time

Chorus:
I can't catch my breath
'Cause you take it away
The best writer in town
Could not find words to say
How there's so many things
I wanna get to know
I wish that I could stay
But I gotta go, so
I'm call you tonight
I will baby
Just as soon as I get time alone
I'm call you tonight
I will baby
Just as soon as I get home

That's the way it goes in life
You get busy when you just don't wanna
There's never enough time day or night
You have to make it so baby I'm gonna
Make a way to connect
'Cause your face is one I can't forget
I feel like I know you from another life
And it just makes me wish I wasn't so pressed for time, oh

Chorus

Oh, destiny, I believe in it
Meant to be, don't you see it's possible
That with this kind of magic anything can happen
And if you wanna know
Then stay by the phone
You'll stay by the phone, oh

Chorus

 

I LOOK TO YOU

 

As I lay me down
Heaven hear me now
I'm lost without a cause
After giving it my all
Winter storms have come
And darkened my sun
After all that I've been through
Who on earth can I turn to

Chorus:
I look to you
I look to you
After all my strength is gone
In you I can be strong
I look to you
I look to you
And when melodies are gone
In you I hear a song
I look to you

About to lose my breath
There's no more fighting left
Sinking to rise no more
Searching for that open door
And every road that I've taken
Led to my regret
And I don't know if I'm gonna make it
Nothing to do but lift my head

Chorus

My levees are broken (Oh Lord)
My walls have come (Coming down on me)
Tumbling down on me (Oh the rain is falling)
The rain is falling (Whoo)
Defeat is calling (Set me free)
I need you to set me free
Take me far away from the battle
I need you
Shine on me

Chorus

I look to you
I look to you

A SONG FOR YOU

 

I've been so many places in my life and time
I've sung a lot of songs
And made some bad rhymes
I've acted out my life on stages
With ten thousand people watching
Well, but we're alone now
And I'm singing this song to you

I know your image of me
Is what I hope to be
I've treated you unkindly
But darling can't you see
There's no one more important to me
Baby can't you see through me
We're alone now
And I'm singing this song to you

You taught me precious secrets
Of a true love withholding nothing
You came out in front
When I was hiding
But now I'm so much better
And if my words don't come together
Listen to the melody
'Cause my love is in there hiding

I love you in a place
Where there's no space or time (space or time)
I love you for my life, dear Lord
You are a friend of mine
And when my life is over
Remember when we were together (together)
We were alone
And I was singing this song for you

This song is for you
This song, this song
This song is for you
This song, this song
This song is for you
This song, this song
This song is for you, you, you, you
You, you, you, you, you, you

I love you in a place, my dear friend
Where there's no space or time
I love you for my life, ah
You are a friend of mine
And when my life is over
Remember when we were together
We were alone (we were alone)
And I was singing this song to you
We were alone
Yeah and I was singing this song to you
We were alone
Yeah, and I was, yeah, singing this song to
Oh yeah, singing this song
I was singing this song, it's for you
Ooh

 

I DIDN`T KNOW MY OWN STRENGTH

 

Lost touch with my soul
I had nowhere to turn
I had nowhere to go
Lost sight of my dream
Thought it would be the end of me
I thought I'd never make it through
I had no hope to hold on to
I thought I would break

Chorus:
I didn't know my own strength
And I crashed down, and I tumbled
But I did not crumble
I got through all the pain
I didn't know my own strength
Survived my darkest hour
My faith kept me alive
I picked myself back up
Hold my head up high
I was not built to break
I didn't know my own strength

Found hope in my heart
I found the light to life
My way out the dark
Found all that I need
Here inside of me, oh
I thought I'd never find my way
I thought I'd never lift that weight
I thought I would break

Chorus

There were so many times
I wondered how I'd get through the night
I thought I took all that I could take

Chorus

I was not built to break, no no
I got to know my own strength

 

WORTH IT

 

Chorus 1:
This for the lovers holding hands in the car
This is for the lovers no matter where you are
This is for you (it's for you, it's for you, it's for you)
This is for you (it's for you, it's for you)
This is for the lovers just getting on their feet
This is for the lovers 'bout 20 years deep
This is for you (it's for you, it's for you, it's for you)
This is for you (it's for you, it's for you)

It's a beautiful thing
When it's shared between two
The most beautiful thing about it
That it's so much more than you
There ain't nothing in the world like
Being with your lover
Nothing in the world like
Seeing one another
Happy with the one you need the most, yeah ah

I know somebody's gonna make love to this song tonight (tonight, tonight)
I know somebody's out of town and they're calling home tonight
Let me tell you what they're saying right now, they're saying

Chorus 2:
It ain't hard to tell
When it's something real
You can have the world
All you want is them
Even when you're in a crowd
And you spot 'em from a mile
And that's when you know
Love is worth it
When it's going wrong
And you never give up
When you're on the phone
You never hang up
Even when you're feeling down
They can always make you smile
And that's when you know
Love is worth it

This for the lovers holding hands in the car (holding hands in the car)
This is for the lovers no matter where you are (no matter where you are)
This is for you (it's for you, it's for you, it's for you)
This is for you (it's for you, it's for you)
This is for you baby

Some people feel it
They let it show
Some people miss it
They let it go
Some people doubt it
I'm gonna tell you now
They don't know a thing about it
That's why they doubt it
Some people give it
Some people take it
Some people try to
But they can't fake it
That's why when it's official
You just can't walk away
And you can trust me when I say

I know somebody's gonna make love to this song tonight (tonight, tonight)
I know somebody's out of town and they're calling home tonight
Let me tell you what they're saying right now, they're saying

FOR THE LOVERS

 

To all the lovers in the place, love, love, lovers in the place

To all the haters in the place, hate, hate, haters in the place
I ain't singing to you baby, I ain't singing to you

It's been a long crazy week, all I want is a little time
Lose my hands and my feet, let it go tonight
Leave the stress at home
Tell the drama no
You ain't gonna kill my vibe, oh no
I look at you, you look at me, and you already know
What I want, what I need, so meet me on the floor
I can feel your love, when our bodies touch
If anyone is feeling like me tonight

Chorus:
Now throw your hands up
For the next three minutes it's about the lovers (you know it, you know it)
Baby stand up
If you're single but you're looking for another (you know it)
Ladies tell your man you love him (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Fellas tell your girl you love her (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
So throw your hands up
For the next three minutes it's about the lovers (about the lovers)

The thing about, the ones that, are looking down on you and me
Love is in the here and now and I'm completely free
Life is way too short, you might as well get yours, Lord knows I'm doing me
So all the lovers in the place, ah, this song is for you baby, this song is for you
To all the haters in the place, I ain't singing to you baby, I ain't singing to you, c'mon

Chorus

And if your lover ain't around
That don't mean you can't get down (you know it) alright, c'mon (you know it) hey
And if you came here all alone
Find someone and hold them close (you know it) alright, yeah (you know it)
So throw your hands up, yeah, and baby let me see you stand up, ah
And if you're single it don't matter, no, 'cause this song is for everyone who believes in love

Chorus

To all the lovers in the place, love, love, lovers in the place
This song is for you baby, this song is for you (it's about the lovers)
To all the haters in the place, hate, hate, haters in the place

I GOT YOU

 

Adlibs:
Ooh

Akon:
Konvict, konvict

Adlibs:
Whoo
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

When the love is strong
And it comes from the heart
Ain't no man strong enough
Ain't no time long enough
To tear it apart
And that's what we've had
Believe it or not
So on the final day
After all the hurt and pain
We'll end up on top
So I won't cry 'cause you're going away
'Cause the chemistry we got, it don't fade
I won't be wishing for better days
'Cause deep inside I know
Our love stays the same
You gotta know

Chorus:
No matter where you are
You got me
Baby, near or far
You got me
Our love will never fade
You got me
So let me hear you say
Baby I got you
I'll be there, I'll be there
No matter what
Baby I got you
I'll be there, I'll be there
No matter what (there)
'Cause I got you baby

Yeah, I'll never lie
'Cause you are the reason
That my heart is beating
And I am alive
Before you go (before you go)
Look in my eyes (oh no)
You can't be replaced (no)
I'm down to wait (oh)
The rest of my life
Oh, you gotta know

Chorus

I'll hold you up
When you just can't stand
I'll make you fly
When you think that you can't
By my side forever
Baby that's the plan
I'll be your everything
I'll be your everything
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I got you
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Whoa

Well I'm not, I'm done
So when you leave just close the door behind you

'Cause I'm feeling kinda taller than you (lately)
I'm feeling kinda stronger than you (oh lately)
I'm feeling kinda better than you
And I know just what to do
I feel like doing my hair (my hair)
I feel like calling some of my friends (some of my girlfriends)
I feel like going to a club and partying

Chorus:
'Cause I'm a soldier girl in this world
I stand alone, I can be strong
I've walked the miles, I made it home
It's good to know without you I made it
Soldier girl in my world
I took the fall, now I stand tall
For the pain and all, I made it through
And now all I got to say to you
Salute (eh, eh)
Salute (eh, eh)

You think you know everything
And you think that your sh-- don't stink
Well it do, hey
And when it comes to me you don't have a clue
Took me all of these years
To realize that you don't belong here
I can do better
You say I'll never do better
Yeah right, whatever

'Cause I'm feeling kinda taller than you (lately)
I'm feeling kinda stronger than you (oh baby, lately)
I'm feeling kinda better than you
And I know just what to do
I feel like doing my hair (my hair)
I feel like calling some of my friends (my girlfriends)
I feel like going to a club, do some partying

Chorus

(Oh) So don't call it a comeback, no
(Oh) I've been here for years
(Oh) Through all the drama and the pain
(Oh) And all of the tears
