So I went hard like Medusa starin' at me,
I told her, ""Let's go! Let's blow this lame nigga factory!""
She said, ""What kind of girl do you think that I are?
The kind that you meet in a bar?
You think you can get whatever you want
Cuz you some kind of star...""
No, I'm a comet, I
Just want you woman, hey
If I were you it would be me that I'd go home with, 3
The one and only
One thang you ain't considered,
I heard you when you told your girl, ""Oooh, he can get it...""
Admit it!
You did it!
Let's hop a cab, and split it!
I'm kiddin'!
We both goin' to where you livin'!
Ha! I got you gigglin' like a piglet!
Oh, that's the ticket!
I hope you more like Anita Baker than Robin Givens.
No, I don't know that lady so let me quit it,
I'm just style-freein',
Freestylin' which I seldom do,
This is what I'm tellin' you,
To the bed I'm nailin' you,
Like I've been in jail for two,
Years and then they let me loose...
give me the green light
give me just one night
im ready to go right now
im ready to go right now
we could go all night
give me the green light
im ready to go right now
im ready to go right now
im ready to go right now
im ready to go right now
im ready to go right now
im ready to go right now

[Hook]
Now What Do You Keep Standing There For
Its Over, Its Overrr [Repeat 2x]
[Verse 1]
(Its Over)
In The Back Of My Mind I Question Why I Keep Calling
I Guess Im Just Used To Getting My Way Im Spoiled
[Hook]
Now What Do You Keep Standing There For
Its Over, Its Overrr [Repeat 2x]
[Verse 1]
(Its Over)
In The Back Of My Mind I Question Why I Keep Calling
I Guess Im Just Used To Getting My Way Im Spoiled
I Dont Wanna Be What You Want Me To Be
So When I Call You`re Just Yelling At Me
(I`m Sorry It`s My Fault)
Oooh & The Clothes I Brought You Can Still Wear
Did You Store The Cards & Teddy Bears
See There I Go Again Sticking My Nose
(I`m Sorry It`s My Fault)
[Chorus]
Now What Do You Keep Standing There For
Its Over, Its Overrr [Repeat 2x]
[Verse 2]
(It`s Over)
Girl Talking To Myself In The Mirror Is Strange Enough
So You Gotta Know Sharing This With You Is Painful
You Know We Used To Talk About Our Future
(It Ain`t Just All My Fault)(I Know, I Know We Used To Talk About It Babe)
So Say Goodbye To The Way The Leaves Would Fall
The Way We Stand In The Rain & We Would Ball (We Would Cry)
Just Say Goodbye To The Walks & Talks & The Dogs In The Park
(& It Ain`t Just All My Fault)
[Chorus]
Now What Do You Keep Standing There For
It`s Over, It`s Overrr [Repeat 2x]
[Kayne`s Verse]
(It`s Over)
We Lost A Four Leaf Clover
Dont Ask My Shorty Be Over
News Flash Shorty We Over
We Like Def Jam & Hova
We Like Bobby & Whitney
Except Without The Kiddies
Just Like Pamela Anderson`s Career
Except Without The Tittes
We Had Some Good Times Didn`t We
I Know I Won`t Forget That
But We Had Some Bad Times &
That`s Time I Wish I Could Get Back
But I Love You I Can`t Let Go
Now I Just I Just Don`t Know
You Been Around Me Long Enough
To Know That Now It`s Over.
[Chorus]
Now What Do You Keep Standing There For
It`s Over, It`s Overrr [Repeat 2x]
[Vamp]
(It`s Over) It`s Nothing We Can Do With It
So You Might As Well Forget It (It`s Over)
Like We Never Ever Did It (It`s Overrr) [Repeat 4x]

It gets harder every day
but I can't seem to
shake the pain
I'm trying to find
the words to say please say
It's written all over my face
I can't Function the same
when you're not here
I'm calling your name
and no one's there
And I hope one day you'll see
nobody has it easy
I still can't believe you
found somebody knew
But I wish you the best
I guess
Cause everybody knows
that nobody really knows
How to make it work
or how to ease the hurt
We've heard it all before
that everybody knows
How to make it right
I wish we gave it one more try
One more try
One more try
Cause everybody knows
but nobody really knows

I don't care what the people say
They brought it all in anyway
Baby don't fill up your head
with he said she said
It seems like you just don't know
The radio's on
you tuning me out
I'm trying to speak
you're turning me down
And I hope one day you'll see
nobody has it easy
I still can't believe you
found somebody knew
But I wish you the best
I guess
Cause everybody knows
that nobody really knows
How to make it work
or how to ease the hurt
We've heard it all before
that everybody knows
How to make it right
I wish we gave it one more try
One more try

Cause everybody knows
but nobody really knows
Oh I wish you'd understand
Oh just an ordinary man
Listen we'd have known
Everybody knows
but nobody really knows
And I know one day you'll see
nobody has it easy
I still can't believe you
found somebody knew
I wish you the best
I guess
Cause everybody knows
that nobody really knows
How to make it work
or how to ease the hurt
We've heard it all before
that everybody knows
How to make it right
I wish we gave it one more try
One more try
One more try
Cause everybody knows
but nobody really knows

Only just a friend
The love story begins
Now here's a happy ending

And always there for me
Now you're with me in my dreams
It's got me wondering if you ever
Dream of me
I don't wanna risk losing everything
But I'll take the chance
and tell you what I'm thinking
Girl you'll be my best friend
Can we put this to bed then
Tonight's the night
To cross the line
Baby won't you be mine
Not just my homegirl
Time that I take you home girl
Tonight's the night
To cross the line
Let me love you tonight
I I I Kiss Kiss Kiss me on my lips
We've been dancing 'round the moment
Now we're doin' it
Breathe Breathe
And sigh your sweet relief
We've been holding it so long
The wait was killing me
Oh and we are what we
have been waiting for
So baby open your mind
while I close the door
Oh girl you'll be my best friend
Can we put this to bed then
Tonight's the night
To cross the line
Baby won't you be mine
Not just my homegirl
Time that I take you home girl
Tonight's the night
To cross the line
Let me love you tonight I I I
Don't let this moment just slip away
'Cause we'll never know
unless we try someday
If you're ready I'm so ready
Tonight's the night
Tonight's the night
Oh girl you'll be my best friend
Can we put this to bed then
Tonight's the night
To cross the line
Baby won't you be mine
Not just my homegirl
Time that I take you home girl
Tonight's the night
To cross the line
Let me love you tonight I I I

No other love, no other touch
Gimme, gimme oh so much
Turn me on, turn me on

Won't you please get out of my head?
Get back into my bed now, come kiss me, come with me
'Cause I can't hardly sleep without you
Can't stop thinking 'bout you, girl, I want you, I need you

And I'm ready for love
And I'm ready for us to lose control
Oh, you know and I know that

No other love, no other touch
Gimme, gimme oh so much
Turn me on, turn me on

No other kiss, no one like this
Feeling that I can't resist
Turn me on, turn me on, turn me on

I've had my share of lovers
But there is no other girl, you're special, now let's go
'Cause now I want you more than ever
Want to do whatever now to keep you, I need you

And I'm ready for love
I'm ready for us to lose control
Oh, you know and I know that

No other love, no other touch
Gimme, gimme oh so much
Turn me on, turn me on

No other kiss, no one like this
Feeling that I can't resist
Turn me on, turn me on, turn me on

I say your turning me on now
Say you're turning me, oh, oh, oh, on
Say you're turning me on with your smile
To you're lips, to the words of this song I know

I used to say I was too young, now I'm grown up
But I put you where you need that strong, real goodie good loving
Stevie Wonder said it's been so long
And I'mma a give it if you need it are you ready to receive it

Boy, I, I, I, I, I wanna give you some love
I wanna give you some love and affection
You got my attention

See I'm ready for love
I'm ready for us to lose control
Oh, you know and I know that

No other love, no other touch
Gimme, gimme oh so much
Turn me on, turn me on

No other kiss, no one like this
Feeling that I can't resist
Turn me on, turn me on, turn me on

Ran into you yesterday
Memories rushed
through my brainIts starting to hit me
Now you're not with meI realize
I made a mistakeI thought
that I needed some space
But i just let love go to waste
Its so crystal clear now
That I need you here now
I gotta get you back today
This time I want it all
This time I want it all
Showing you all the cards
Giving you all my heart
This time Ill take the chance
This time Ill be your man
I can be all you need
This time its all of me I hit the bar every night
looking to score a good time
Its not like I planned it
Left empty handed
Cause Im still alone in my mind
Now what will it
take to feel right
Can i come see you tonight
Is there someone new now
What can i do now
Cause i need you back by my side
This time I want it all
This time I want it all
Showing you all the cards
Giving you all my heart
This time Ill take the chance
This time Ill be your man
I can be all you need
This time its all of me
Last time I wasnt sure
This time i will give you more
Im more matureIll show you
Last time i didnt know
I messed up let her let you go
I need you dont say no
Laying alone in this room
All that is missing is you
Pick up the phone
Wont you come home
This time i want it all
This time i want it all
I'm showing you all the cards
Giving you all my heart
This time Ill take the chance
This time Ill be your man
I can be all you need
This time its all of me
All of me

I wonder, wonder wonder
Why your eyes they wonder?
I wonder, wonder wonder
About the spell that you are under
Tell me its some hocus pocus
Made to lose your focus
I wonder why the cold kiss and you think I wouldn't notice

Hook:
You don't love me like you say you do
You don't want me the way that I want you
You don't love me like you say you do (you do) you do

Chorus (x2)
Can I get me some satisfaction (x3)
That's all I'm asking you, you, of you
Give me the magic pass, that's all I ask of you

Verse 2:

I wonder if it's over, middle of October
I don't know why in autumn, she keeps giving a cold shoulder
She knows how much I love her don't know what I could have told her
I wonder why she makes me think I didn't even know her

Hook:
You don't love me like you say you do
You don't want me the way that I want you
You don't love me like you say you do (you do) you do

Bridge:
Why don't you give me (give me give me give me give me your love)
Give me your love (give me give me give me your love
Is that too much to ask you can I
Get some satisfaction from you

Hook:
You don't love me like you say you do
You don't want me the way that I want you
You don't love me like you say you do (you do) you do

Chorus:
Chorus (x2)
Can I get me some satisfaction (x3)
That's all I'm asking you, you, of you
Give me the magic pass, that's all I ask of you

We dance and sing
Somewhere in between heaven and hell
Gabrialle, that was her name
Everyone was smiling
Even through their tears, under a spell
But in Gabby`s eyes, nothing
I ask, do you not like the music
She says it`s alright
But she dances to her own sad tune

She says..
Take me away from here
Take me somewhere where love like breathing
I don`t care where we go
Long as I`m there with you, baby
Long as I`m there with you

I could tell she`s been through pain I could only dream
Nightmares that live where you live
Tears well in her eyes, but she wouldn`t let them is
I`d give the wourld to know where her smile is
I ask will you dance with me now
Let me try to figure out
The fastest route out of town

And she said..
Take me away from here
Take me somewhere where love like breathing
I don`t care where we go
Long as I`m there with you, baby

Oh, I got a full tank of gas girl
Anywhere, you wanna go girl
All you have to do is ask girl

Oh, she said..
Take me away from here
Take me somewhere where love like breathing
I don`t care where we go
Long as I`m there with you, baby

Take me away from here
Take me somewhere where love like breathing
I don`t care where we go
Long as I`m there with you,

Good morning Good morning love
It's my favorite love song
I waited all night long
Before you get into the shower
Before you worry about your hair
Baby give me one more hour
I want you to stay right there
I don't wanna lose a moment
I don't wanna miss a kiss
If I could plan the
perfect day love
Then I would start it
just like this
Good morning Good morning love
It's my favorite love song
I waited all night long
For morning Good morning love
Before we start the day dear
I'm whispering in your ear
Good morning

baby how can I commence you
make it so you can't resist
Whatever else you have to do now
It can't be half as good as this
I'll case you
underneath the sheets love
And I won't let you get away
The day won't be complete love
Unless we get a chance to say
Good morning Good morning love
It's my favorite love song
I waited all night long
For morning Good morning love
Before we start the day dear
I'm whispering in your ear
Good morning

Open your eyes
See my son rise
I feel you're scared
Day breaks so sweet
When you're next to me
So stay each night
So each morning will be

Good morning Good morning love
It's my favorite love song
I waited all night long
For morning Good morning love
Before we start the day dear
I'm whispering in your ear
Let's get lost together
I will smile forever

Was morning

Hush my baby
Don't you cry
I'll dry your eyes
Fulfill your heart's desire
Let's go in Try again
Careful this time
Broken promises
linger in our mind
I'll give in completely
Hearts break so easy
I know Believe me
Oh I've tried
But my arms can hold you
My kiss console you
I'll come and love you tonight
And I
I love I love I love
Love hurts sometimes
But this feels right
You
You love you love you love
Though you've been burned
You still return
Come and share my house my home
and all I own
I'd love to give to you
Aren't you tired of
going along this lonely road
It takes its toll on you
Give me your emotion
your heart's devotion
Give anything you like
And I'll give understanding
Life's so demanding
I'm all you need to get by
And I
I love I love I love
Love hurts sometimes
But this feels right
And You
You love you love you love
Though you've been burned
You still return
I love I love I love
Love hurts sometimes
But this feels right
And You
You love you love you love
Though you've been burned
You still return
Still return
Still return to love

Keep coming back to love
