My recollection
I was lookin' in my rearview reflection
U were at the spotlight headin' the other direction
And from that very day you've had my undivided attention- oh

As I remember
My heart raced and i felt a change in pressure
Then I turned around and I chased u down 4 that num-ber, boy
That i could call sometimes
But I've got u on my speed dial cause you're heavy on my mind


So bad why do i want u so bad
Being without you makes me so sad
Don't wanna be without
Well I'd like 2 get 2 know u well and
Find out why i want u so bad

In my bedroom
I lay awake at night hopin' 2 see u soon
Though you're not even my type I hope that I and u
Can get 2 know each other better
Maybe we can find out why you're always on my mind


OO u drive me crazy but i want u 4 my baby why why do i want u

I used to think that lonely was what I'd always be
I used to lie awake at night afraid of facing my fear
But I found my strength, the very day that I found you
My guiding light, just like a fairy tale come true


My self-esteem was low but just like superman
you took me by the hand made me understand
Showed me happiness was never to far- thru it all

You've been at my back- thru it all
You're the reason I stand so tall
You've always been there to catch my fall
You've been at my back- thru it all

You've been my boo my best friend and my confidant
When I'm sad and blue you're the only one that I want
And you've got a way with words that makes everything okay
You're poetry in motion you brighten up my night and day


You said don't be afraid and to never doubt myself
And now that I found you I don't want no one else
Won't you take my hand let's reach for the stars- thru it all

You've been at my back- thru it all
You're the reason I stand so tall
You've always been there to catch my fall
You've been at my back- thru it all


You said don't be afraid and just like superman
you took me by the hand made me understand
Showed me you would be there when I call- thru it all

You've been at my back- thru it all
You're the reason I stand so tall
You've always been there to catch my fall
You've been at my back- thru it all

You've been at my back- thru it all
You're the reason I stand so tall
You've always been there to catch my fall
You've been at my back- thru it all

Hey - Baby - Boy - Ya get down - With a girl - That don't appreciate - U
What U - Waitin' 4 - There's someone - Standing here
That'll - Treat U like - A real man
She don't - Care about U - Can't U understand -
U need 2 take my hand
Holla back - Playa let me know
If U - Feel the need - Won't U come - Get with me
She don't - Have 2 know - We can creep - And keep it on the low
Or U can - Make me your woman - Boy what U - Waitin' 4
Show dat girl - The door


Swing your love 2 me --- Swing your love 2 me---
When in need --- (Won't U) --- Swing your love 2 me
Swing your love 2 me --- Swing your love 2 me---
Feel the need --- (Won't U) --- Swing your love 2 me

That she can't handle U
She can't move U - She can't groove U - She can't do U like I do
Rub your body - With my fingers - U got 2 - Swing your love 2 me

She pinches herself because the thought it was make believe
Foolish girl her happiness she could not see
Always thought she'd be the one with endless chances
So she betrayed your trust and took your love for granted

She never really noticed the scent of your cologne
'Til it finally hit her that you were gone
I couldn't believe that she was so naive
'Til I realized that she was me

I don't wanna dance alone
Don't wanna be on the floor without my baby
And since I can't be with you
I haven't had an appetite for nothing lately
I don't wanna dance alone
Even the robbins can't sing a sad sad song
Can't be alone don't make me do it alone

When I felt the pain the tears fell down like an ocean rained
Enough the fill the sea with my apologies
I have died inside and nobody knows
My life is gone with you and our tomorrows

What do I have to do to make the music right
How do I get it back to you and I
The foolish girl has risen from her dream
Now I realize how much you mean to me
Come back to me

I don't wanna dance alone
Don't wanna be on the floor without my baby
And since I can't be with you
I haven't had an appetite for nothing lately
I don't wanna dance alone
Even the robbins can't sing a sad sad song
Can't be alone don't make me do it alone


Came on over here and make love to me slow
Up in my room we can dance to the radio
Turn the music on and pretend that we're still close
Give me your hand
May I have this dance
Make it last
Say I have a chance

I know it's hard to believe it
What were you thinking
Everything you thought was gone for wrong reasons
Wasn't strong enough to resist temptation
Shouldn't play round with imagination
Sometimes love is blind it could cause deception
No wonder nowadays you gotta have protection
So playa give it up I've had enough to see
That all your love for my girls was just make believe


First time that I caught you slippen
I thought that my eyes were trippen
I was a fool
Next time when you try to play me
Caught you tryin to hide your hickies
That was uncool


Since then every night, every day I think about you in a different way I tried
But I can't stay with you


Playa, don't try to step to me
You lied and you deceived
And now I see that our love was make believe
'Cause you know I got to be
With a man who respects me
But now I see that your love was make believe


Chillen all alone and thinking
That you were busy working
Making your moves
But when I try to call you
Some girl told me that we're through
Then I heard Oooohhh





You, thought I was blind
You, can't even blow my mind
You, will wish you could rewind
You, ain't even worth my time

I think that I have played this game before
It's been a little while
So I'm no that sure
Maybe they changed the box a bit
Put a few more pieces inside of it
The names have changed to ones
I'm not familiar with

But I know it's the same game
Although the faces change
It must be 'cause it plays the same
First up and down and then the bag
This is the one because I recognize the pain


At the end
I don't win again


Crying game who wants to play
When all there are
Are losers
And if you choose it
You'll always lose it
The crying game
Who wants to play
The crying game
When all there are
Are losers
Glimpse of the sun
Eternal rain
The crying game
All it brings it pain


Thought I would have learned my lesson then
Back when I was young and we were more like friends
Though my heart still felt the pain from then
Sure enough I let you back again
Will I allow myself to let this cycle end

And I have no one to blame
I guess cupid lost his aim
Must have hit me in my let again
My knees get weak and I begin
To persuade myself to be the one to love again


I can't bare
That you don't care anymore


Free me from all of my dark despair
Grant me 3 wishes so that I can be anywhere but here
Storms of life evacuate my heart
Because the lessons you teach with the people I meet
Are tearing me apart

365 you call me all the time
I'm picking up my line, U say I'm looking fine
Talking bout how you miss and love me
How you and me were always meant to be
Then why did you cheat on me so gradually
I don't understand how you did this to me
Asking me if I want you back
I don't really know gotta think bout that


It's hard cuz I lost the trust for us
Why did you lust?
It's hard cuz I lost the trust for us
I won't cry and fuss


All you ever do is lie to creep on me
So don't try to step to me
Playa get your hands off me
Even though I love you so I can't
See you next to me so don't
Try to mess with me
Playa get your hands off me


247 I'm thinking about you
My heart can't take it I'm really missing you
Now why did you go and play the shady fool
You have no reason and I have no clue
Deep down in side I'm still in love with you
But you just had to treat me so cruel
Baby boy I think I want you back
I don't really know gotta think about that





[2x] You have to let her go if you wanna get back with me
Cuz I'm not down with S.O.M.E. after three

Nobody gets to much
Heaven no more
It's much harder
To come by
I'm waiting in line

Nobody gets to much
Love anymore
It's as high as a mountain
And harder to climb

Oh you and me boy
Got a lot of love in store
And it floats through you
And it floats through me
And i love you so much more

And my love
I can see beyond forever
Everything we own will never die
Love is such a beautiful thing

Oh you make my world
A summer day
Are you just a dream
To fade away?

I got a call, a telephone call today
Somebody's offing a job a thousand miles away
I wanna take it, it's the opportunity of a lifetime
But I need a second opinion other than mine
So I, I'm turning to you, because you always seem to know what to do
When times like these arise
I call on my only true friend in the world, my world


So I, I want to know
If you really want me to go
And if so, are you coming with me
I, i want to know
If you really want me to go
And if so
Come With Me...


I never wanted it as much as i want you with me
You were the one who said to follow my dreams
Of having a house, a car, a view of the stars
And a beautiful life
So i need someone i can go with
I need someone in my life
So i, i'm turning to you
Because you always seem to know what to do
When times like these arise
I call on the only real love of my life
You are my life, you are my life, my life, my life



I need you to...
Come with me, oh come with me
Come with my baby
Come with me, yeah......
Come with me
Come with me
Come with me
Come with me

And U gave - This luv - A chance


I haven't seen the rain or cloudy skies - Since I found U
I haven't seen a tear fall from my eye - Since I found U

Neva - Neva - See the rain outside
Neva - Neva - See a tear in my eye
Neva - Neva - Home alone at night

Bah Bah Bah Haa Haa
Bah Bah Bah Haa Haa


Must have been an angel
Sweet spirits raining from above
Shower me with lirance of love
Blessing me over and over


So i serenade my song
My love, for you
And i'll give you my heart
And i'll serenade for you


Ohhh, you said it was my destiny
My calling to find the way to you
Something like out of a dream
Angels came to me and sang this heavenly song




Ohhh, my love is true for you
Never had to worry baby
Cause i've got what you need
You'll never be alone
My heart will be your shelter and you and keep you warm
Need me, feel me, hold me, forever and ever
Need me, feel me, hold me, forever and ever

As I sit and think about yesterday
I feel the pain inside (oh yeah)
All the troubles that burden my mind
They can't be pushed inside

So I'm counting on your love to guide me home
Thought these chapters of my life (uh huh)
You're my angel through the storm
(And you know I'll always love ya)
You're what keeps me going strong


Don't you know that mama ya k now I love ya
And if I could I'd build my world around ya
Why did ya have to go away
I'm missing all those sunny days
You see they came and go but still these empty feelings
Goes on and on dear lord I pray for healing
Wishing that you never went away
Nowl ike just ain't gonna be the same


Even though you're not
Here with me today
I still feel you around me
In every singe way

Missin' the times that you would hold me close
When I needed you the most (oh yeah)
Wiped the teardrops from my eyes
And walked with me through the storms of life


Don't you know that mama ya k now I love ya
And if I could I'd build my world around ya
Why did ya have to go away
I'm missing all those sunny days
You see they came and go but still these empty feelings
Goes on and on dear lord I pray for healing
Wishing that you never went away
Nowl ike just ain't gonna be the same


I loved ya enough to let you go
'Cuz your spirit will live on and on
I put all my faith inside of you
So you'll know my love is strong

And your soul it lives within me
For all eternity
(It lives on and on and on)
(And you know I'll always love you)

I know your feeling down
Because she broke your heart
Dont think that it's the end
You just gotta try and start
Over with someone, someone who's gonna care
Care about the way you feel, when no one else is there
But she gotta be patient because love takes some time
And you always gotta be on guard cause true love is so hard to find
Never know, who or where, how or why
When the woman you've been waiting for is right before your eyes


Whenever you're lonely
You can call on me
Cause i promise to be
There until eternity
If the mountains may fall
And the sun refused to shine
I'll be with you through it all
And whenever you hold me
I get a rush inside
You can tell by my touch
That i just can't lie
The way i feel about you just feels so right
Baby i will never leave


So open up your eyes
And let your mind free
What you've been searching for
Is all inside of me
So don't you be afraid
'Cause I won't let you down
Sweet love and honesty
In you I've finally found


I'll be your fantasy
I'll be your dreams at night
Don't ever have a doubt
'Cause the feelings oh so right
To have you here with me
Feels like your heaven sent
And since you've been with me
I've been in love ever since
