Альбом Mary J. Blige

Loving you is wonderful
Something like a miracle
Rest assured I feel the same way you do
Needing you it isn't hard
With you I can let down my guard
Stay secure that's all I'm asking of you
I wish I had words to tell
This feeling that I know so well
But I don't, I don't

[Chorus:]
All that I can say
Do do, do do, do do, do
All that I can say
Do do, do do, do do, do

I've always been curious
Needing someone serious
Looking for someone who loves like me
But the day I stopped my search
It seemed that you were put on Earth
To show me everything I could not see
I wish I could find a way
To tell you how I felt that day
But I can't (I just can't)
I can't

[Chorus]

Knowing him, touching him
Showing him that I'm all in
Living and forgiving him
I would do it all again
Genuine seraphim
Sweeter than cinnamon
Heaven-sent gentleman
Synonyms for loving him

[Chorus]

[Ad-libs:]
I love you, I love you
Oh I don't wanna live without you
You're all that I can say
Loving you is wonderful
(Do do, do do, do do, do)
All that I can say
(Do do, do do, do do, do)
All that I can say
(Do do, do do, do do)

[1] - Can't have you if I wanted to
Can't let you get away from me
Can have you if I wanted to
Can't let you go, no

[Repeat 1]

Looking in my mirror
Thinking 'bout last night
I can't help but see you
Running often through my mind

[Repeat 1]

You were saying, Mary
Don't let go, hold tight
I just wanna hold you
All through the night

[2] - This is something that I can't deny
Boy you know your touch just drives me wild
Won't you take my hand, I'll set you free
I want you to belong to me

[Repeat 1]

Oh, oh oh oh, oh, oh, oh

[Jadakiss]
Uh, uh-huh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh-huh, uh
Yo, yo, yo
You might bump into the 'Kiss late night
On the Deegan, speeding
In the drop four-thirty, on my way to rock a birdie
With automatic lead in the car, bread in the car
Plus I'm gettin' head in the car
My wedding tomorrow
More dutchies to the head, the redder you are
After the session with shorty
I'll be better tomorrow
And you know how we are
We always keep more than two
That don't say much
Like to hit a blunt or two
Or don't mind driving with raw in the trunk
Or freaking off for the week
Top flow in the trunk
Just laying back blowing
Twenty five's a skull
The Akitas by the door with bow ties and puffs
Can't let me get away
But you ain't ready for 'Kiss
Got the Chevy and the Six
Wrists heavy and shit
Matter of fact we gonna take a trip
And put the daps up
And cop the pink lemonade Cadillac truck

[Repeat 1 (2x)]

[Repeat 2]

Can't have you if I wanted to
Can't have you
Can't let you go, no
Can't have you if I wanted to
Can't have you
Can't let you go, no

[Repeat 1 till end]

The problem is
For many years
I've lived my life
Publicly
So it's hard for me to find a man I trust
I really trust
And everytime I find someone I like
Gotta worry about
If it's really me
That they see
And I thought you were the one, yeah

[CHORUS]
Deep inside I wish that they could see
That I'm just plain ol' Mary, Mary
[repeat]

I don't have a lot of friends
And sometimes I have to wonder
Is it cash they see when they look at me
'Cause they're lookin' for a ride that's free
So I made the choice to be
Good to those who are good to me
Don't judge me, don't think I'm bitter
For the evil does allow me to see I'm just Mary

[HOOK]
I'm just Mary, just Mary, just Mary
I'm just Mary, just Mary, just Mary
I, I, ohhhh

[CHORUS]

The problem is
For many years
I've lived my life
Publicly
And everytime I find a man
I, I can't trust him
Ohhhh


[thanks to kaiee@yahoo.com for these lyrics]

Oh no, so beautiful
So beautiful

I'd give my flesh for yours
I'd sacrifice everything
You are my door to a new beginning
A lucky charm, potato pie
So sweet you make me cry
I can't deny
The way you make me feel inside, oh

[1] - You are the beautiful one
And I love to hold you until the sun
Goes down on your song

Have mercy on me
I'm crazy 'bout you
Look at all the things your lips make me do
You are my song when there's no music to play
Oh I wanna marry someone like you someday

[Repeat 1]

[2] - Oh beautiful one, don't you ever go
Don't you ever go, don't you ever go
Don't you ever go

Can't you hear the bells ringing
Doves flying in the air
With this ring I promise to always be right there
Through the good and the bad times forever yours
I will remain, with your love baby in my life
You know we can stop the rain, yeah

[Repeat 1]
[Repeat 2]
[Repeat 1]

Me baby, with me baby
Oh baby yeah
Don't you, don't you
Don't, don't, don't
Don't, don't you leave, no, oh

[Repeat 1]
[Repeat 2]
[Repeat 1]
[Repeat 2]

Yeah, oh don't go
So beautiful
You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you
You, you, you, you, you
Oh ah-yeah, oh, ooh, oh, ooh, yeah, yeah

La, la, la, la, la

[1] - La, la, la, la, la, la, la
Feeling you, there is nothing I won't do

When I reach and touch your hand
Sweet melodies began
Feeling you, there is nothing that I won't do

I'm in love, yeah
I'm in love
Love with you, love with you
I'm in love, yeah
Now the sun will shine for me and you
Bring a brighter day (oh)
When I reach and touch your hand, yeah
(Ah, Ah, Ah, Ahhhh)

[Repeat 1]

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, oh, oh yeah

[2] - (I'm in love yeah)

(Love with you, love with you)
I'm in love with you, I'm in love with you

Now the sun will shine for me and you
Bring a brighter day
(Ohhh)

When I reach and touch your hand, yeah
Oh sweet things in me, oh in my heart
(In my heart,) In my heart, oh

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

[Repeat 2 while:]
Now the sun will shine for me and you

Yeah, I said I'm in love, oh yeah

You make me sing sweet
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

I never dreamed this would come true
But I love you, I love you, I love you
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, I'm in love witchu baby
Baby, baby, baby, oh yeah
I'm in love, mmm
Never felt nuthing that felt this good before
Only you can open the door
I love you

[1] - If I have my way
Life would be just fine
But the world is too much
And it makes me cry
Sometimes I feel like leaving
But I must be wise
Because time is not on our side (on our side)
(Don't you that time is not on our side)
Because time is not on our side (on our side)

The end is coming, stop your running
I'm telling you this is the truth
You can talk about what you read about
Everything is on the news
People nowadays so shady
Now what is wrong with them
Something cast a spell up on their minds
And they always wanna condemn

[Repeat 1]

While your judging me you should look around
And you'll see how people going down
Some of them are killed over a dime
Now tell me do we really have time
To continue with this madness
Cause I'm sick and tired of this
Trying to crush my world with jealousy
And I'm about to catch a fit

[Repeat 1]

You're deceiving
What's the meaning
Of you're retrieving
The enemy's greeting
We all are leaving someday but
We don't know how we are going
Please believe me when I tell you
That time is not really on our side

[Repeat 1 till end]

Sitting here all alone on Valentine's Day
I really wanna call him up
But my pride is all in the way, hey
Picture's getting clearer
I see what's been going wrong for years
The ones you say are far, really are so near
I'm thinking of

[1] - Roses that you sent to me
All the kisses that you gave to me
Memories of what we used to be
All alone this special day
Thinking 'bout the time you went away
Valentine's Day will never be the same

How come men nowadays bring you so much joy
And so much pain
Can anybody help me?
I think I'm going insane
Valentine's Day will never be the same
Cause I think about you always
I cherish everything you gave to me
I'm thinking of

[Repeat 1]

You took my love for granted
Then you mean to think that
Everything was fine between me and you
Everytime this day comes around
I wanna feel your touch
I can't believe what you did to me
I hate cha, did me wrong
But still I must move on

I gotta move on, ooh oh

[Repeat 1 until fade]

[Mary]
Lately I've got this funny feeling
Something don't feel the same
But he's telling me I'm the one to blame
Yes I know that he still gives me good loving
But when he's deep inside
There's somebody else on his mind

[1] - [Aretha] Don't waste your time
[Mary] But it gets so hard to know
[Aretha] Just walk away
[Mary] You say that I gotta let go
[Both] Seen it a millions times before
[Aretha] You shouldn't take his stuff no more
[Mary] Can't waste my time
[Aretha] Girl, it's not hard to know
[Mary] Should walk away
[Aretha] Oh, you've gotta let him go
[Both] Seen it a millions times before
[Mary] Shouldn't take his ish no more

[Aretha]
Sister girl, sister girl
It's much deeper than what you're thinking
When something don't feel the same
Hey you better believe his love has change
(And I have been telling you, telling you)
And what you're telling me
(Cuz it's been hurting me, hurting me)
It ain't, ain't any fool can see
He's got a sweetie on the side
Stop making truth out of his lies

[Repeat 1]

[Aretha & Mary]
What's the point of love
When you got no trust
What's the point of staying
When you seen enough
What's the point of giving
What he don't deserve

[Mary]
He don't deserve it
No you don't deserve it

[Aretha]
Oh what's the point of feeling

[Aretha & Mary]
Like there's nothing inside
What's the point of saying
That you still got your pride
What's the point of giving
What he don't deserve
This is a lesson of love

[Repeat 1 with ad libs until fade]

[K-Ci (Mary)]
Well (Ooh)

I'm not looking

No, no, no, no baby

Yeah (Go ahead, go ahead)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[K-Ci]
I'm not trying to fall in love with you
I just wanna hit you with my groove

What I'm trying to say, I'm not trying to be mean
No, no, no, no
But baby can't you respect my honesty
I'm trying to tell you I'm not looking, baby

[K-Ci]
I'm not looking for no love affair
Won't nobody tell you that they seen me there
So I don't need you tripping, trying to take me there
I'm not looking for no love affair
(Sometimes it make me feels so sad when I think about it)
(But I'm not looking, hey baby yeah)
I'm not looking for no love affair
Won't nobody tell you that they seen me there
So I don't need you tripping, trying to take me there
(Mary, Mary, Mary, Mary, Mary, Mary)

[Mary (K-Ci)]
You think you got (Sing it girl)
What it takes to please me
I'm not impressed by your honesty, oh no, no
I don't need you to tell me I look good
I don't need it, no
(No no no, I know you don't)
Cause I've been hearin' that around my hood
And I'm trying to tell you something

[2 - Mary]
I'm not looking for no player shit
Not when everybody's trying to get with this
You see, I don't need you here just to get a hit
I'm not looking for no player shit

[Repeat 2]

[Mary]
Where were you when everything was going down
I left my man and didn't have no one around
See I don't need it, I don't want it
You're not the nigga for it
You think that you can get it
No, right now I'm not gonna let it

[K-Ci (Mary)]
Oh please stop frontin' on that player shit (Oh)
I heard around the town you were still down with it
(Oh nigga, please)
If you think I don't know, sugar let me tell you so
(Oh really, oh)
Let me in, let's begin, but we only will be friends
(Stop playing with me)

[Mary]
I'm not looking for no player shit (Yeah, yeah)
Oh not when everybody's trying to get with me
(I'm not even baby)
All day and all night you fool, I don't need it
Don't need it, oh
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I swear I'm tired of playing games
(My my my my mind is all confused)
I don't wanna be down, go 'head, go 'head (Go 'head, oh)
I don't wanna be down, I'm tired of playing games
Tired of chasing your egomaniac
Egotistical, chest sticking out (Oh baby)
Think your God's gift to me, oh
(That's not me, that's not me, that's not me)
Hate to do it to you like this
(You oughta know by now baby)
But I got to do it cause it's only right
To let you know I'm not looking
For no arrogant, egotistical player shit
(I hear you)
Do you really hear me, then hear this
I'm sick and tired of chasing you
(I understand you, baby)
Sick and tired of holding you
(I said I hear you)
Go 'head, go 'head
All my ladies stand up and clap
(I understand you)
If you feel me, if you feel me
(I'm so sorry, baby)
Come with something better than that, please
I know your sorry

It's too bad, it's too bad
It's too bad, it's too bad, baby
But I gotta face reality
It's too bad, it's too bad
Too bad baby, yeah
But I gotta face reality

Today you had a visitor
Or should I say an old friend
But wait a minute
That's not where it ends, no
Is there something
That you wanna tell me, hmm
Cause I'm believing what your friends say
About your hidden secrecies

[1] - Your girlfriend
She wasn't disrespectful
In fact, she's a hundred percent sure
And how could I argue with her
Holding a baby with eyes like yours

[2] - She said it's your child
And it really messed me up
How could you deny
Your own flesh and blood
Gotta face reality
There can never be any more us
Won't deny it's hurting me
Yet so precious

She said she never wanted to hurt me
And could I understand, she's afraid and lost
She said a real woman wouldn't do this over the phone
And that you told her about me after the baby was born, oh

[Repeat 1]
[Repeat 2]
[Repeat 2]

Hmm, oh the baby looks just like you
How could you deny your own flesh and blood
Your own child
What kind of man are you?
Oh, oh and

[Repeat 1]
[Repeat 2]
[Repeat 2]

I can't believe
After all this time
I'm in love with a man
Who could never be mine
And just to think
I'd believe one day you'd really leave
Like you said you would
Cause you don't love her
But your little girl really needs you, oh

[1] - Christmas you weren't with me
New Year's Eve you were not around
Valentine's came and went
Makes me wonder where your time was spent
Fireworks on the Fourth of July
Thanksgiving was another lie
Your family has never met me
And you've never met mine, no happy holiday

No happy holiday
I got to let go of this feeling
Being with you deprives me of true love, true love
I can't fathom living this life
Without being number one
This is finally goodbye
I pray to God you live a happy life
Cause loving you just ain't right
Make her your wife

[Repeat 1]

I wish I had known
The situation from the start
Now it's complicated
Because I gave you my heart
Honestly I held on for dear life
For my ego, my pride
But what goes around, comes around
But maybe next time I'll be on the other side

Hmm, oh, yeah, oh
Last time dittle didi, di
You don't do, do, do, dum
Do do, do, do, do ooh, hey oh

[Repeat 1 until fade]

[Intro - Spoken]
You know sometimes
There come a time in your life
When you love something
You have to let it go
And even though
You might feel there's still something there
You have to wake up
Stop living in a dream
Cause it's over now
You got to think about you

I have always wondered why
Why I can't live without you babe
And I'm longing to be your lady
I understand that you are leaving
Please don't leave here without me, babe
Cause I think I might go insane

[1] - Cause everybody needs someone to love
And I know that it's true
And I know that it's you
I don't understand
Why you can't be my man
So I've gotta wake up
Stop living in a dream
Yes I've gotta wake up
Cause I can't lose the love I never had
Yeah I've gotta wake up
As painful as it seems
Yes I better wake up
I can not lose a love I never had

Every time I close my eyes
I see visions of you and I
Sharing love of a special kind, oh
I got to laugh to keep from crying, yeah
To hide all the pain inside
Cause I can't get you off my mind

[Repeat 1]

Oh, it made me realize
Honey, I don't wanna live a lie
But you don't know how hard I try
What do I have to lose?
Oh I think a little bit more than you
And I doubt you will see things
Clearer than me, before it's too late

[Repeat 1]

Oh, ya hurt me so bad
I I I got to wake up
Break it down, break it down

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
All the times I've cried
It made me realize
That I was only living a lie
But you don't know how hard I tried
To make sure you were satisfied yeah
Cause I thought you were only mine
And I doubt if you will see things clearly
Before it's too late, too late, too late
I don't understand why you can't be my man
Oh everybody needs somebody to love
Everybody needs somebody yeah
Oh, do do do
Baby, baby, baby I can't live without you
And I doubt that you will see things clearly
Before it's too late, yeah
Oh you hurt me so, you hurt me so
La la la, la la la
I can't lose, I can't lose
I can not lose, I can not lose
Oh oh oh
I can't lose a love I never had
Oh yeah yeah

I don't ask for too many things
Only one thing I really need
That is you baby next to me
With that I'm satisfied
Don't need diamonds
I don't need gold
I just need someone here to hold
To keep me warm when the nights are cold
That would do just fine, just fine

You don't have to promise me the stars
Just promise me love, inside your heart
And that's enough
Baby that's enough

[1] - (Give me you)
Give me you, give me all of you
(Give me night)
All my nights spent just holding you
(Give me day)
All my days being close to you
Nothing else that I need
(Give me you)
Give me you, give me all your love
(Give me time)
All your time, all your tender time
(All your heart)
All your soul baby that's enough
Nothing else that I need
Give me you, give me you
That's enough for me baby

Hmmm
I don't need things that money buys
All I need is there in your eyes
I just need your heart next to mine
All my whole life through

You don't have to bring the moon to me
Just bring me the love
The love that I need
And that's enough
Ooh baby that's enough

[Repeat 1]

You don't have to promise me the stars
Just promise me that I have your heart
You don't have to bring the world to me
Just give me your word, you will never leave
Cause having you beside me, I have everything I need
So give me, give me you

(Give me you)
(Give me night)
All my nights spent just holding you
(Give me day)
All my days being close to you
Nothing else that I need, oh
(Give me you)
Give me you, give me all your love
(Give me time)
All your time, all your tender time
(All your heart)
All your soul baby that's enough
That's enough, nothing else that I need
Give me you, give me you
That's enough for me baby, yeah
Give me you

I'm surprised to see your suitcase at the door
Remember the good times, don't you want some more
It's not a perfect love, but I'll defend it
Cause I believe that's what God intended

[1] - We got love too good to throw away

[2] - It's not over between you and me
It's not over, don't want to be free

[3] - What has been joined by God, by God
Let no man put asunder
Oh no don't throw it away
Don't throw it away

I can hear those words spoken, understood
Making bonds through love, the times are better good
I'm convinced that what is meant to be will be
Even the stars declare that you belong to me

[Repeat 1]
[Repeat 2]
[Repeat 3]

Hmmm, oh, oh, oh yeah

[Repeat 2 (2x)]

(It's not over)
Said I need you
And I want you
I got to have you every day in my dog gone life
(It's not over)
It's not over, no, no, no
(It's not over)
(It's not over)
(It's not over)
Said I need you
And I want you
I got to have you every day in my dog gone life
(It's not over)
It's not over, no, no, no
(It's not over)
(It's not over)
Baby, baby, baby, oh, hmm, hmm

See, one thing I know about me and you
That no matter what we go through baby
I know you will be coming back someday
Because I know deep inside you feel the same way
Because it's not over
It's not over, no, no, between you and me
It's not over, hmmm na
Say ooh baby, ooh baby
Come on y'all, help me out, come on y'all
You know what I'm saying, yeah

Come on ya'll
