POST THEM!

me first...

Fool of Me by Meshell Ndegeocello

I remember when you filled my heart with joy
Was I blind to the truth just there to fill the space
'Cause now you have no interest in anything I have to say
And I have allowed you to make me feel dumb
What kind of fool am I that you so easily set me aside

You made a fool of me
Tell me why
You say that you don't care but we made love
Tell me why
You made a fool of me you made a fool of me

I want to kiss you
Does she want you with the pain that I do
I smell you in my dreams
But now when we're face to face you won't look me in the eye
No time no friendship no love
Don't say don't touch you I can't touch you no more
Can't touch you any more any more
I don't touch you anymore

You made a fool of me
Tell me why
You say that you don't care but we made love
Tell me why
You made a fool of me you made a fool of me

smoke and ashes by tracy chapman

I??d heard rumors and I??d heard talk
About the trail you??d left of broken hearts
About the sea of tears too wide to cross
But a little bad press has never scared me off
So I burned a path to figure out
How to get me some of what you got

I??ve got a red hot heart
If the talk is true your??s is the same
And we should be together
And let our passions fan love's flame

When I looked for you I almost passed you by
You were so cool and calm I thought my friends had lied
But I thought so much reserve must make you wild inside
It was there and then that I knew I had to get some of what you got

I??ve got a red hot heart
If the talk is true your??s is the same
And we should be together
And let our passions fan love's flame

I thought I??d won your heart when I held you hand in mine
I thought it was true love the way we complemented each other
But my right is your wrong
And when you??re right then I'm left with nothing
Your light and your heat have all been spent
Leaving only smoke and ashes
Only smoke and ashes baby

I??ve got a red hot heart
Any your heart's as blue as the blood in your veins
I say there's fire down below
You say it's only smoke and ashes baby

I'm crying all the time
Salty stinging tears
And mourning for the past carbon-dated years
But knowing now for certain that you were always right
Because if a breeze could blow you out of my life
It's only smoke and ashes baby
Only smoke and ashes baby

I??ve got a red hot heart
And your heart's as blue as the blood in your veins
I say there's fire down below
You say it's only smoke and ashes baby

I was blinded by devotion
My unwavering love for you
So blinded that I thought all your lies were true
But now I know for certain since you??ve gone away
It was just a smoldering fire I mistook for a blaze
Only smoke and ashes baby

I??ve got a red hot heart
And your heart's as blue as the blood in your veins
I say there's fire down below
You say it's only smoke and ashes baby
Only smoke and ashes baby, baby ...

ONE by U2

Is it getting better?
Or do you feel the same?
Will it make it easier on you now?
You got someone to blame
You say
One love
One life
When it's one need
In the night
One love
We get to share it
Leaves you baby if you
Don't care for it

Did I disappoint you?
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without
Well it's

Too late
Tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one, but we're not the same
We get to
carry each other
carry each other
One

Have you come here for forgiveness?
Have you come to raise the dead?
Have you come here to play Jesus?
To the lepers in your head

Did I ask too much?
More than a lot.
You gave me nothing,
Now it's all I got
We're one
But we're not the same
See we
Hurt each other
Then we do it again
You say
Love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love is a higher law
You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
And I can't keep holding on
To what you got
When all you've got is hurt

One love
One blood
One life
You got to do what you should
One life
With each other
Sisters, brothers
One life
But we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other

One...
One...

Posted by Mr Nice
Sheltering her ego on the edge of a floodlit arc
She'll contemplate seduction, she'll calculate the catch
When she moved, her presence speared me
When she spoke, her words ensnared me
Watch the lizard, watch the lizard,
Watch the lizard with the crimson veil

She crucified my heart in the depth of a satin grave
As I lay in sweating monologue I sensed the lovelight fade
Within the spiral of the cigarette
You betrayed your bedside etiquette
I saw the lizard, I saw the lizard
I touched the lizard with the crimson veil

I've seen a different doorway shut a million times before
The smiling she chameleon, the smiling vinyl whores

They know what they want, they sing your name
And glide between the sheets
I never say no, in chemical glow we'll let our bodies meet
So was it just a fuck, was it just a fuck, just another fuck I said
Loving just for laughs, carnal autograph, lying on a lizard's bed
So was it just a fuck, was it just a fuck, just another fuck I bled
Degraded and alone, raped and still forlorn
Betrayed on a lizard's bed
We chameleon, we chameleon, we chameleon

i cant make you love me sung by bonnie raitt

Turn down the lights, turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
Lay down with me, tell me no lies
Just hold me close, don't patronize - don't patronize me

Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark, in these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
'Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't

I'll close my eyes, then I won't see
The love you don't feel when you're holding me
Morning will come and I'll do what's right
Just give me till then to give up this fight
And I will give up this fight

Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark, in these lonely hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
'Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't

At this point in my life by tracy chapman (one of the best songwriters evah!)

Done so many things wrong I don't know if I can do right
Oh I, Oh I've
Done so many things wrong I don't know if I can do right
At this point in my life
I've done so many things wrong I don't know if I can do right
If you put your trust in me I hope I won't let you down
If you give me a chance I'll try
You see it's been a hard road the road I'm traveling on
And if I take your hand I might lead you down the path to ruin
I've had a hard life I'm just saying it so you'll understand
That right now, right now, I'm doing the best I can

At this point in my life
At this point in my life
Although I've mostly walked in the shadows
I'm still searching for the light
Won't you put your faith in me
We both know that's what matters
If you give me a chance I'll try
You see I've been climbing stairs but mostly stumbling down
I've been reaching high always losing ground
You see I've been reaching high but always losing ground
You see I've conquered hills but I still have mountains to climb
And right now right now I'm doing the best I can
At this point in my life

Before we take a step
Before we walk down that path
Before I make any promises
Before you have regrets
Before we talk commitment
Let me tell you of my past
All I've seen and all I've done
The things I'd like to forget

At this point in my life
At this point in my life
I'd like to live as if only love mattered
As if redemption was in sight
As if the search to live honestly
Is all that anyone needs
No matter if you find it

You see when I've touched the sky
The earth's gravity has pulled me down
But now I've reconciled that in this world
Birds and angels get the wings to fly
If you can believe in this heart of mine
If you can give it a try
Then I'll reach inside and find and give you
All the sweetness that I have
At this point in my life
At this point in my life

One of my favorite songs ever. Mooshy, yes. Lovely, definitely.

Howard Hewett, I'm For Real


Hoo
Hoo oh
Baby

Girl, I wanna sit you down
And let you know just how I feel
It's been a long time since I felt so strong
And much too long since love's been here

Now I know there's many questions runnin' through your mind
You're wondering have you felt true love this time
Have you found the one who cares, who will always be right there
I wrote this song just to ease your mind

Now your love {Your love to me is very serious}
I won't play games {I won't play games with your tender heart}
And when I look into your eyes and say I love you, girl
That's how I feel, I'm for real {I'm for real}, hoo

They say in life you take a chance
And in love there's no guarantees
But the sweetest satisfaction comes from sharing our lives
And tearing down walls of mystery

What we share is special, it's mystical
There's magic when I look in your eyes
Oh, but this is no illusion, I never want to lose you
Say you'll be with me for the rest of my life, oh, girl

(I want your love) I want your sweet love
It's the kind of love that you hope for and pray for every day
(I'll pray for you every day)
Guessing games, pretending (Pretend no more, darlin', girl)
It's all over (Oh)

Your love {Your love to me is very serious}
{I won't play games with your tender heart}
And when I look into your eyes and say I love you, oh
That's how I feel, I'm for real {I'm for real}, oh ho

(I want your love) I want your sweet love
It's the kind of love that you hope for and pray for every day
(I'll pray for you every day)
Guessing games, pretending (Don't wanna pretend no more, darlin', girl)
It's all over (Hey )

Your love {Your love to me is very serious}
I won't play games {I won't play games with your tender heart}
Oh, girl, when I look into your eyes and say I love you, oh
That's how I feel, I'm for real, hey {I'm for real}

I said your love {Your love to me is very serious}
Oh, oh, I won't play games {I won't play games with your tender heart}
Look into your eyes, girl, I say {Into your eyes and say I love you, girl}
Hey, that's how I feel, I'm for real, hey, hey {I'm for real}

Oh, your love {Your love to me is very serious}
{I won't play games with your tender heart}
Oh, girl, when I look {Into your eyes and say I love you, girl}, oh
I'm for real, and darlin', I'm for real, oh

Dorothy Dandridge - That's All

I can only give you love that lasts forever
And a promise to be near each time you call
And the only heart I own, for you and you alone
That's all
That's all

I can only give you country walks in spring time
And a hand to hold when leaves begin to fall
And a love whose burning light warm the winter night
That's all
That's all

There are those, I am sure, who have told you
They would give you the world for a toy
All I have are these arms to enfold you
And a love even time can't destroy

If you're wondering what I'm asking in return, Dear
You'll be glad to know that my demands are small
Say it's me that you adore, for now and evermore
That's all
That's all

Nothing more, nothing less
Just a lifetime's happiness
That's all
That's all

Billie Holiday - For All We Know

For all we know
We may never meet again
Before you go make this moment sweet again
We won't say goodnight until the last minute
I??ll hold out my hand and my heart will be in it
For all we know this may be only a dream
We come and go like a ripple on a stream
So love me tonight
Tomorrow was made for some
Tomorrow may never come
For all we know

Meatloaf - For Crying Out Loud


I was lost 'til you were found
But I never knew how far down
I was fallin' before I reached the bottom
I was cold and you were fire
And I never knew how the pyre could be burning on the edge
Of the ice field
A:
And the now chilly California wind
Is blowing down our bodies again
And we're sinking deeper and deeper into the
Chilly California sand
Oh I know you belong inside my aching heart
And can't you see my faded Levis bursting apart
And don't you hear me crying oh babe don't go
And don't you hear me screamin' how was I to know
I'm in the middle of nowhere
Near the end of the line
But there's a border to somewhere waiting
And there's a tankful of time
Oh give me just another moment
To see the light of the day
And take me to another land where I won't have to stay
And I'm gonna need somebosy to make me feel like you do
And I will receive somebosy with open arms open eyes
Open up the sky and let the planet that I love shine through
For crying out loud you know I love you (3X)
I was damned and you were saved
And I never knew how enslaved I was kneeling
In the chains of my master

I could laugh ah but you could cry
And I never knew just how high I was flying
With you right above me
😐| A
For taking in the rain when I'm feelin' so dry
For giving me the answers when I'm asking you why
My oh my for that I thank you
For takin' in the sun when I'm feelin' so cold
For givin' me a child when my body is old
Don't you know for that I need you
For comin' to my room when you know I'm alone
For findin' me a highway and drivin' me home
You gotta know for that I serve you
For pullin' me away when I'm startin' to fall
For revvin' me up when I'm startin' to stall
And all in all for that I want you
For taking and for giving and for playing the game
For praying for my future in the days that remain
Oh lord for that I hold you
Ah but most of all
For cryin' out loud
For that I love you
(repeat 3X)
When you're crying out loud
You know I love you

Guns N Roses - Patience

(1..2...1,2,3,4)
Shed a tear 'cause I'm missing you
I'm still alright to smile
Girl, I think about you every day now
'Was a time when I wasn't sure
But you set my mind at ease
There is no doubt you're in my heart now
Said woman take it slow
It'll work itself out fine
All we need is just a little patience
Said Sugar make it slow
And we'll come together fine
All we need is just a little patience
(inhale) Patience...

I sit here on the stairs
'Cause I'd rather be alone
If I can't have you right now, I'll wait dear
Sometimes, I get so tense
But I can't speed up the time
But you know, love, there's one more thing to consider
Said woman take it slow
And things will be just fine
You and I just used a little patience
Said Sugar take the time
'Cause the lights are shining bright
You and I got what it takes to make it
We wont fake it
And never break it
'Cause I cant take it


...little patience, mmm yeah, ooh yeah,
I need a little patience, yeah
Just a little patience, yeah
Some more pati... (ence, yeah)
I've been walking these streets at night
Just trying to get it right (Need some patience, yeah)
It's hard to see with so many around
You know I don't like being stuck in a crowd (Could use some patience, yeah)
And the streets don't change but maybe the name
I ain't got time for the game
'Cause I need you (Patience, yeah)
Yeah, yeah well I need you
Oh, I need you (Take some patience)
Whoa, I need you (Just a little patience is all we need)
Ooh, All this ti- me....

Pearl Jam - Just Breathe

Yes I understand that every life must end, aw huh,..
As we sit alone, I know someday we must go, aw huh,..
I'm a lucky man to count on both hands
The ones I love,..

Some folks just have one,
Others they got none, aw huh,..

Stay with me,..
Let's just breathe.

Practiced are my sins,
Never gonna let me win, aw huh,..
Under everything, just another human being, aw huh,..
Yeh, I don't wanna hurt, there's so much in this world
To make me bleed.

Stay with me,..
You??re all I see.

Did I say that I need you?
Did I say that I want you?
Oh, if I didn't now I'm a fool you see,..
No one knows this more than me.
As I come clean.

I wonder everyday
as I look upon your face, aw huh,..
Everything you gave
And nothing you would take, aw huh,..
Nothing you would take,..
Everything you gave.

Did I say that I need you?
Oh, Did I say that I want you?
Oh, if I didn't now I'm a fool you see,..
No one know this more than me.
As I come clean.

Nothing you would take,..
everything you gave.
Hold me till I die,..
Meet you on the other side.

willow by joan armatrading

I may not be your best
But you know good ones
Don't come by the score
If you've got something missing
I'll help you look
You can be sure

And if you want to be alone
Or someone to share a laugh
Whatever you want to do
All you got to do is ask

Thunder
Don't go under the sheets
Lightning
Under a tree
In the rain and snow
I'll be your fireside
Come running to me
When things get out of hand
Running to me
When it's more than you can stand

I said I'm strong
Straight
Willing
To be a shelter
In a storm
Your willow
Oh willow
When the sun is out

A fight with your best girl
Prettiest thing you ever saw
You know I'll listen
Try to get a message to her

And if it's money you want
Or trouble halved
Whatever you want me to do
All you got to do is ask

I said I'm strong
Straight
Willing
To be a shelter
In a storm
Your willow
Oh willow
When the sun is out

Meredith Brooks - Bitch


I hate the world today
You're so good to me
I know but I can't change
Tried to tell you
But you look at me like maybe
I'm an angel underneath
Innocent and sweet
Yesterday I cried
Must have been relieved to see
The softer side
I can understand how you'd be so confused
I don't envy you
I'm a little bit of everything
All rolled into one

Chorus:
I'm a bitch, I'm a lover
I'm a child, I'm a mother
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed
I'm your hell, I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
You know you wouldn't want it any other way

So take me as I am
This may mean
You'll have to be a stronger man
Rest assured that
When I start to make you nervous
And I'm going to extremes
Tomorrow I will change
And today won't mean a thing

Chorus:
I'm a bitch, I'm a lover
I'm a child, I'm a mother
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed
I'm your hell, I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
You know you wouldn't want it any other way

Just when you think, you got me figured out
The season's already changing
I think it's cool, you do what you do
And don't try to save me

Chorus:
I'm a bitch, I'm a lover
I'm a child, I'm a mother
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed
I'm your hell, I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
You know you wouldn't want it any other way

I'm a bitch, I'm a tease
I'm a goddess on my knees
When you hurt, when you suffer
I'm your angel undercover
I've been numb, I'm revived
Can't say I'm not alive
You know I wouldn't want it any other way

Love by Mos Def

They say the goodness in life belongs to those who believe
So I believe...YES!

[Chorus] 2x
I start to think and then I sink
Into the paper like I was ink
When I'm writing I'm trapped in between the line
I escape when I finish the rhyme (aiyyo)

My pops said he was in love when he made me
Thought about it for a second wasn't hard to see
I could hear he was sincere was a game of promotion
The entire affair's probably charged wit emotion
But love call your heart, I guess you got to persue
12-11-73 my life is testament
Praise the beneficent, element that rest
Devoid in the form that make love manifest
I spent my early years in Roosevelt Project
It was a bright valley wit some dark prospects
In '83, Venny C was the host wit the most
I listened to the Rap Attack and held the radio close
I listened to the Rap Attack and held the radio close
This is far before the days of high glamour and pose
Aiyyo power from the street light made the place dark
I know a few understand what I'm talkin about
It was love for the thing that made me wanna stay out
It was love for the thing that made me stay in the house
Spendin time, writin rhymes
Tryin to find words that describe the vibe
That's inside the space
When you close yo' eyes and screw yo' face
Is this the pain of too much tenderness
To make me nod my head in reverence
Should I visit this place and remember it?
To build landmarks here as evidence
Night time, spirit shook my temperment
To write rhymes that portray this sentiment
We live the now for the promise of the infinite
We live the now for the promise of the inifinite
And we believe in the promise (love, love *repeated*)
Yes yes y'all and we don't stop because

Chorus

I got love, L-O-V-E and I be
Love, L-O-V-E to MC
Get love, L-O-V-E and I be
Love, L-O-V-E I MC
Get love, L-O-V-E and I be
Love, L-O-V-E to MC
Get love, L-O-V-E and I be
The M-O-S-D-E-F-initely

Check it out y'all, feel me out y'all
Feel me out y'all, hear my out y'all
Check me, out y'all
Feel me out y'all, check it out y'all
Now hear out (bounce) y'all
Check me out y'all, feel me out y'all
Check me out y'all, feel me out y'all
Feel me out y'all (hear me bounce y'all)
Check me out y'all, check it out y'all

Love cont...

My folks said they was in love when they had me
I take they love they made me wit to make rhymes and beats
(Can you feel?) The raw deal, it's all wheel-driven
Contemplate the essence of beats, rhymes and living
Speech in line wit the rhythm, designed wit the rhythm
Ears and eyes keepin good time wit the rhythm
I shine wit the rhythm, the Black Star Gallactica
Big number fleetin, we ancient like the Abbacca's
After us, I see most proceed to be trees
Sproutin leaves, given breeze to the we who believe
I MC, which means I Must Cultivate the earth
Back straight backs, hard beats and hard work
I be the funky drummer to soften the hard earth
(I mean) Pray Allah keep my soul and heart clean
(I mean) Pray the same thing again for all my team
?Restorate? to Fort Green and on out to Queens
Uptown to Boogie Down, yo just look around
AND SHOOK UP THE WORLD!, like Ali in 6-3 (right)
I'm reachin the height that you said cannot be
I'm bringin the light but you said we can't see
Saw the new day commin, and it look just like me
Some burst through the clouds, my photo ID
I bring light to your day and raise yo' degree
The Universal Magnetic, you must respect it
>From end to beginning, ? true and livin
EVERY CHANGING, it was a state of magnificent
Building it now for the promise of the infinite
Building it now for the promise of the inifinite because

Chorus

I got love, L-O-V-E and I be
Love, L-O-V-E to MC
Get love, L-O-V-E and I be
Love, L-O-V-E to MC
Get love, L-O-V-E and I be
Love, L-O-V-E to MC
Get love, L-O-V-E and I be
The M-O-S-D-E-F-initely

You Got It sung by Whoopi Goldberg

Every time I look
Into your lovely eyes
I see a love that money
Just can't buy

One look from you
I drift away
I pray that you
Are here to stay

CHORUS:
Anything you want
You got it
Anything you need
you got it
Anything at all
you got it
Baby

Every time I hold you
I begin to understand
Everything about you
Tells me [I'm your best friend]

I live my life
To be with You
No one can do
The things you do

CHORUS

I'm glad to give
My love to you
I know you feel
The way I do

CHORUS

Harry Chapin - All My Life's A Circle

All my life's a circle
Sunrise and sundown
Moon rolls thru the night time
Till the daybreak comes around.

All my life's a circle
But I can't tell you why
Season's spinning round again
The years keep rollin' by.

It seems like I've been here before
I can't remember when
But I have this funny feeling
That we'll all be together again.

No straight lines make up my life
And all my roads have bends
There's no clear-cut beginnings
And so far no dead-ends.

All my life's a circle
Sunrise and sundown
Moon rolls thru the night time
Till the daybreak comes around.

All my life's a circle
But I can't tell you why
Season's spinning round again
The years keep rollin' by.

I found you a thousand times
I guess you done the same
But then we lose each other
It's like a children's game.

As I find you here again
A thought runs through my mind
Our love is like a circle
Let's go 'round one more time.

All my life's a circle
Sunrise and sundown
Moon rolls thru the night time
Till the daybreak comes around.

All my life's a circle
But I can't tell you why
Season's spinning round again
The years keep rollin' by.

Massive Attack - Protection

his girl I know needs some shelter
She don't believe anyone can help her
She's doing so much harm, doing so much damage
But you don't want to get involved
You tell her she can manage
And you can't change the way she feels
But you could put your arms around her

I know you want to live yourself
But could you forgive yourself
If you left her just the way
You found her

I stand in front of you
I'll take the force of the blow
Protection

I stand in front of you
I'll take the force of the blow
Protection

You're a boy and i'm a girl
But you know you can lean on me
And I don't have no fear
I'll take on any man here
Who says that's not the way it should be

I stand in front of you
I'll take the force of the blow
Protection

I stand in front of you
I'll take the force of the blow
Protection

She's a girl and you're a boy
Sometimes you look so small, look so small
You've got a baby of your own
When your baby's gone, she'll be the one
To catch you when you fall

I stand in front of you
I'll take the force of the blow
Protection

I stand in front of you
I'll take the force of the blow
Protection

You're a girl and i'm a boy
You're a girl and i'm a boy
You're a girl and i'm a boy
You're a girl and i'm a boy

Sometimes you look so small, need some shelter
Just runnin' round and round, helter skelter
And I've leaned on me for years
Now you can lean on me
And that's more than love, that's the way it should be
Now I can't change the way you feel
But I can put my arms around you
That's just part of the deal
That's the way I feel
I'll put my arms around you

I stand in front of you
I'll take the force of the blow
Protection

I stand in front of you
I'll take the force of the blow
Protection

Hard Headed Woman - Cat Stevens

I'm looking for a hard headed woman,
One who will take me for myself,
And if I find my hard headed woman,
I will need nobody else, no, no.

I'm looking for a hard headed woman,
One who will make me do my best,
And if I find my hard headed woman
I know the rest of my life will be blessed -- yes, yes, yes.

I know a lot of fancy dancers,
people who can glide you on a floor,
They move so smooth but have no answers.
When you ask "Why'd you come here for?"
"I don't know" "Why?"

I know many fine feathered friends
but their friendliness depends on how you do.
They know many sure fired ways
to find out the one who pays
and how you do.

I'm looking for a hard headed woman,
One who will make me feel so good,
And if I find my hard headed woman,
I know my life will be as it should -- yes, yes, yes.

I'm looking for a hard headed woman,
One who will make me do my best,
And if I find my hard headed woman...

Slow Like Honey - Fiona Apple

You moved like honey in my dream last night
Yeah, some old fires were burning
You came near to me and you endeared to me
But you couldn't quite discern me

Does that scare you? I'll let you run away
But your heart will not oblige you
You'll remember me like a melody
Yeah, I'll haunt the world inside you

And my big secret - Gonna win you over
Slow like honey, heavy with mood

I'll let you see me, I'll covet your regard
I'll invade your demeanor
And you'll yield to me like a scent in the breeze
And you'll wonder what it is about me

It's my big secret - Keeping you coming
Slow like honey, heavy with mood

Though dreams can be deceiving
Like faces are to hearts
They serve for sweet relieving
When fantasy and reality lie too far apart

So I stretch myself across, like a bridge
And I pull you to the edge
And stand there waiting
Trying to attain
The end to satisfy the story
Shall I release you?
Must I release you?
As I rise to meet my glory

But my big secret
Gonna hover over your life
Gonna keep you reaching
When I'm gone like yesterday
When I'm high like heaven
When I'm strong like music
'cause I'm slow like honey, and
Heavy with mood

All Woman - Lisa Stansfield


He's home agein from another day
She smiles at him as he walks through the door. She wonders if it will be Okay
It`s hard for her when he doesn't respond

He says babe you look a mess You look dowdy in that dress It's just not like it used to be
Then she says. . .

I may not be a lady But I'm All Woman
From Monday to Sunday I work harder than you know I'm no classy lady But I'm All
Woman
And the woman needs a little love to make her strong.. You're not the only one

She stands there and lets the tears flow
Tears that she's been holding back so long, She wonders where did all the loving go
The love they used to share when they were strong

She says yes I look a mess. But I don`t love you any less.
I thought you always thought enough of me
To always be impressed

I may not be a lady But I'm All Woman
From Monday to Sunday I work my fingers to the bone I'm no classy lady But I'm All
Woman
This woman needs a little love lo make her strong You're not the only one

He holds her and hangs his head in shame He doesn't see her like he used to do He's too
wrepped up In working for his pay He hasn't seen the pain he's put her through

Attention that he paid
Just vanished in the haze
He remembers how it used to be When he used to say:

You'll always be a lady, 'Cos you're All Woman
From Monday to Sunday I love you much more than you know.. You're a classy lady
'Cos you're All Woman
This woman needs a loving men to keep her warm

You're the only one
You're a classy lady 'Cos you're All Woman

So sweet the love that used to be So sweet the love that used to be

We can be sweet again. . .

Stay Down - Mary J. Blige

Did you know...
Did you know...
Did you know...
Did you know...
Did you know...
Did you know...
Did you know...
That I love you.
Did you know...
Did you know...
Did you know...
Did you know...
And I want you.

[Verse 1:]
I'll admit things ain't been the way I thought they would be.
Didn't expect so much stress to develop between me and you.
I knew that it wasn't easy but sometimes when we fight it don't seems like God's design.
But then I hear words you said and I promised I would stand for you and be true through the bad and the good.
And I know what it means to be committed.
So here's a word for you but you just ain't with it.

[Chorus:]
Stay down. (We're almost to the very best part)
Stay down. (You'll always be the pride in my heart)
Stay down. (We took and passed the test)
Stay down. (Yeah, we gotta lot of work)
Stay down. (I know it ain't been the best but it certainly ain't been the worst)
Stay down. (The drama will not last forever)
Stay down. (We'll beat it long as we're together)
One day we'll look back on this. (Yeah)
We'll be like "Remember this"? (Remember this)
And it's gonna make us smile. (Make us smile)
Cause in the end we stayed down.

[Verse 2:]
I ain't gone lie, at time you amaze me.
You be talking and I swear that you're crazy.
But I learned a long time ago that pride don't help.
It only hurts.
And I just want you to know... I need you baby.
(I need you)
I'm just like Weezy baby.
Not Weezy like the sauna baby.
But the wife of George and we're moving on up.
Ten years strong and we're looking like a plan.
I'm looking like your woman and you're looking like my man.
We looking like real.
And the haters look fake.
Especially when they hear me say...

[Chorus:]
Stay down. (We're almost to the very best part)
Stay down. (You'll always have a place in my heart)
Stay down. (We took and passed the test)
Stay down. (You know we gotta lot of work)
Stay down. (I know it ain't been the best but it certainly ain't been the worst)
Stay down. (The drama will not last forever)
Stay down. (We'll beat it long as we're together)
One day we'll look back on this. (One day we'll look back on this.
We'll be like "Remember this"? (We'll be like "Remember this"?)
And it's gonna make us smile. (Make us smile)
Cause in the end we stayed down. (Stayed down)

[Bridge:]
Understand you are the one of my heart.
(And I'm holding yours so we can't live apart)
When things stop

— this song. Just Fine - Mary J. Blige ( again )


You know I love music
And every time I hear something hot
It makes me wanna move
It makes me wanna have fun
But it's something about this joint right here
This joint right here
Its makes me wanna??_..Woooh

Let it go??_??_
Can't let this thing called love get away from you
Feel free right now, going do what you want to do
Can't let nobody take it away, from you, from me, from we
No time for moping around, are you kidding?
And no time for negative vibes, cause I'm winning
It's been a long week, I put in my hardest
Gonna live my life, feels so good to get it right

So I like what I see when I'm looking at me
When I'm walking past the mirror
No stress through the night, at a time in my life
Ain't worried about if you feel it
Got my head on straight, I got my mind right
I aint gonna let you kill it
You see I wouldn't change my life, my life's just??_..

Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Just fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
You see I wouldn't change my life, my life's just fine

Feels so good, when you??re doing all the things that you want to do
Get the best out of life, treat yourself to something new
Keep your head up high
In yourself, believe in you, believe in me
Having a really good time, I'm not complaining
And I'm a still wear a smile if it raining
I got to enjoy myself regardless
I appreciate life, I'm so glad I got mine
So I like what I see when I'm looking at me

When I'm walking past the mirror
Aint worried about you and what you gonna do
I'm a lady so I must stay classy
Got to keep it hot, keep it together
If I want to get better
You see I wouldn't change my life, my life's just??_..
Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Just fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
You see I won't change my life, my life's just fine

I aint gon?? let nothing get in my way
(I ain't gone let nobody bring me down, no, no, no)
No matter what nobody has to say
(No way, no way, no way)
I ain't gon?? let nothing get in my way
No matter what nobody has to say

Feels so good, when you??re doing all the things that you want to do
Get the best out of life, treat yourself to something new
It's a really good thing to say
That I won't change my life, my life's just fine

Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine

Somebody - Depeche Mode

I want somebody to share
Share the rest of my life
Share my innermost thoughts
Know my intimate details
Someone who'll stand by my side
And give me support
And in return
She'll get my support
She will listen to me
When I want to speak
About the world we live in
And life in general
Though my views may be wrong
They may even be perverted
She'll hear me out
And won't easily be converted
To my way of thinking
In fact she'll often disagree
But at the end of it all
She will understand me

I want somebody who cares
For me passionately
With every thought and with every breath
Someone who'll help me see things
In a different light
All the things I detest
I will almost like
I don't want to be tied
To anyone's strings
I'm carefully trying to steer clear
Of those things
But when I'm asleep
I want somebody
Who will put their arms around me
And kiss me tenderly
Though things like this
Make me sick
In a case like this
I'll get away with it.
