Babyface Album

written by Babyface (1997)

You get inside of me and I don't even
(Know how to act, girl)
You have synergy that gets in me that's
(That's better than sex)
When we get inimate it's got to be as
(As good as it gets)
And I just can't wait to get home

Your sexuality it smothers me and
(And less I forget)
My own reality is fantasy it's
(I just got to admit)
That I desire you and think of you like
(Like all thru the day)
That I just can't wait to get home

Girl I be
All day, all day, all day
All day thinkin' about you
I be
All day, all day, all day
All day dreamin' about you

You are the good in me, the bad in me
(The love of my life)
You are the up in me, the down I me
(The love of my life)
And you are there for me to care for me
(At the end of each day)
And I just can't wait to get home
Your sexuality, it captures me
(And blows me away)
That I must think of thee at least a thousand
(A thousand times a day)

HOOK

written by Babyface (1997)
w/ Kenny G

Girl, it's been a long, long time comin'
But I, I know that it's been worth the wait
It feels like springtime in winter
It feels like Christmas in June
It feels like heaven has opened up it's gates for me and you

And every time I close my eyes
I thank the lord that I've got you
And you've got me too
And every time I think of it
I pinch myself 'cause
I don't believe it's true
That someone like you
Loves me too

Girl, I think that you're truly somethin'
And you're, you're every bit of a dream come true
With you baby, it never rains and it's no wonder
The sun always shines when I'm near you
It's just a blessing that I have found somebody like you

HOOK

To think of all the nights
I've cried myself to sleep
You really oughtta know
How much you mean to me
It's only right that you be in my life right here with me
Oh baby, baby

HOOK

written by Babyface, Stevie Wonder (1997)

There was a girl I used to know
She was oh so beautiful
But she's not here anymore
She had a college degree
Smart as anyone could be
She had so much to live for
But she fell in love
With the wrong kinda man
He abused her love and treated her so bad
There was not enough education in her world
That could save the life of this little girl

How come, how long
It's not right, it's so wrong
Do we let it just go on
Turn our backs and carry on
Wake up, for it's too late
Right now, we can't wait
She won't have a second try
Open up your hearts
As well as your eyes

She tried to give a cry for help
She even blamed things on herself
But no one came to her aid
Nothing was wrong as far as we could tell
That's what we'd like to tell ourselves
But no, it wasn't that way
So she fell in love
With the wrong kinda man
And she paid with her life
For loving that man
So we cannot ignore
We must look for the signs
And maybe next time
We might save somebody's life

HOOK

I on occasion met that guy
He stirred up bad feelings deep inside
Something about him wasn't right
The way he proves himself a man
By beatin' his woman with his hands
Oh I wish she'd seen the light
How can someone like that
Call himself a man
In reality he's far more less than that
And we cannot ignore
Whenever we see the signs
'Cause any kinda of abuse
God knows isn't right

Baby Come To Me
I will chase your tears away
Put your trust in me
Girl I swear I'll never change
Darling you will see
That my love is here to stay
I promise you, I will be true
From here and now, forever girl I

I said I love you
I said I care
When I tell you I love you
It means I always will be there
I'll never leave you
I ain't goin' nowhere
When I tell you I love you
Cross my heart I will be there

Open up your heart
Don't be afraid to love again
We can take it slow
You should know I understand
Baby take your time
And I don't care how long it takes
'Cause I promise you, I'm here for you
From here and now, forever girl I

HOOK

And I will be there
(And I will be there for you)
Forever sincere to you
(Girl I'll always care for you)
I just wanna share my life with you
Right here, right now, forever girl I

HOOK

written by Marc Nelson, Babyface (1997)

Sitting by the window
All day thinking of you
Watching the days go by, I started to cry
But they weren't tears of sadness
They only meant I love you
And I wanna tell you girl that I, oh, I

I'll travel 'round the seven seas for you
It's written in the melody I adore you
I wrote my love a symphony
To show you there's nothing I won't do
Baby I'll walk around the China wall for you
If there's a way I'll do it all for you
Anything you want me to, you know I would do

People think I'm crazy, they say
I'm just a nothing
Letting my life pass me by
Believing you're with me
Well I can't speak for no one
But in my heart I know you love me
And that's why I'll always tell you I
Oh I, Oh I, Oh I

HOOK

Do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do

I was born on the north side of a Midwestern town
There were nine of us living in a three bedroom house
Didn't have much money
But we made due
'Cause Momma worked all day long
And Daddy did too
Did all they could
Made sure we had clothes and food
Went to public schools and we
Followed public rules
We used second hand books, but oh
I didn't mind the books
Momma taught us early in life
Everybody's gotta struggle sometime

Bring back those simple times of yesterday
When a man was a man
And a friend was a friend
Bring back those simple times of yesterday
When you said what you meant
And you meant what you said

Had a friend named Bobby
Who always kept his word
We went through schoolyard fights
Had a thing for pretty girls
Didn't cost much money to
See the picture show
So we hopped the bus into town
That's where all the girlies used to go
Fifty cents would buy us popcorn for two
'Cause Bobby's girl, she worked there
And sometimes she'd break the rules
Picnics in the summer
Wouldn't wake up 'till noon
And even though Bobby's gone now
I can still hear him laugh
In the middle of June

HOOK

Sometimes I sit, I wonder
I reminisce, I think of all the good times
That we had in our lives
Sometimes I can't get over
How wonderful those days were
Back in our lives
Simple days for simple times

HOOK

What must I say to you
To get inside your head
Why must you always think
I Wanna get in your pants
And why I always gotta be
The closest thing to wrong
Sometime the only thing a brother need
He need a woman to be strong

Well I ain't cryin', I ain't cryin'
Done 'bout run out of tears
But you're the closest thing to heaven
I need you to be near
Hear me darlin', hear me darlin'
I can't make it more clear
The only thing that's gonna get me through
Is if I got you right here

Ooo girl, talk to me
You're the only one that comforts me
My only reality is I want you for my woman
ooo girl, speak to me
Let me hear you sayin' that you're stayin' with me
I know my reality is without you
I ain't nothin' at all

Why does everything I say to you
Have to be suspect
Feel like the only way I'll get with you
Somethin' blows off my head
Well I ain't tryin' to go out like that
Wanna keep myself clean
Sometime the only thing a brother need
He need the strength from his queen

I ain't lyin', I ain't lyin'
Done 'bout run out of time
The only time I wanna do it right now
Is feel you by my side
Hear me darlin', hear me darlin'
I can't be more sincere
The only thing that's gonna get me through
Is if I got you right here

HOOK

Well I said everything's gonna be alright
When you stand by my side
Gonna work things out tonight
We're gonna make out just fine
For once I'd like you to be
The one who has the faith in me
And I promise I won't let you down this time

HOOK

'Twas late December the news came
And I got so excited, I cried all day
And you were such a lovely, precious site
When I saw our baby in your eyes

It was like falling deep in love
I heard the angels cry above
I felt a blessing straight from God
The day that you gave me a son

I called 'bout everyone I knew
Just think, I'll be a father 'cuase of you
There's no greater love than what you gave
A brand new baby on the way

HOOK

Oh such tears of joy, I've never known
I can't remember
It's like a song, I've never heard
I've never sung, but know the words

We're going from Tahiti to France
To Italy in one night
Drop top Bentley coupe parked in the spotlight
And you can drive it laced in all white
I'm wearin' triple black
Our gear is top flight
Trips to venice
The man of steel when I'm in this
A match made in heaven
When we blend this
Lovers everlasting
In other words endless
To love any other man
Would be senseless
Yo Face
On the real
Was the honey looking laced

Ooh baby baby baby
