Musiq Soulchild Album

[Intro]
Yes...Oh...I really thought it was over baby
But uh, I guess not, oh
Yeah, but its cool, It's all love uhh, ey, but

[Verse 1]
How can I, even think, after you, made a scene
You and me, could again like nothing happened
Oh and it's kinda hard, to forget what you said when you left
out that door, said you don't
Love me no more

[Pre-Chorus]
And now you wanna (sit and talk) but you don't really (wanna
talk), you just wanna see if you
Can get things back the way they used to
You wanted change so you just (walked out)
But your new love didn't (work out)
So, now you think you can just come back when you want

[Chorus]
I thought it was over
But here you come back again
Welcome back, Welcome back, Welcome back
I thought it was over
But here you come back again
Welcome back, Welcome back, Welcome back

[Verse 2]
I thought that I had it all figured out
Had it all planned, I thought there was gonna be a happy
ending
But you chose, to let go, don't you know, once you leave, there
ain't no baby please can we
Just go somewhere to be alone

[Pre-Chorus]
(and talk) but I don't really (wanna talk)
Cause you just wanna see if you can get things back the way they
used to
You wanted change so you just (walked out)
But your new love didn't (work out)
So, now you think you can just come back when you want

[Chorus]
I thought it was over
But here you come back again
Welcome back, Welcome back, Welcome back yeah
I thought it was over
But here you come back again
Welcome back, Welcome back, Welcome back

[Bridge]
It's nice to know that, you been thinking bout the love we once
had but getting over you was
Hard cause i thought there was nothing left for us now you say
you having second thoughts

[Chorus]
I thought it was over
But here you come back again
Welcome back, Welcome back, Welcome back
I thought it was over
But here you come back again
Welcome back, Welcome back, Welcome back
I thought it was over
But here you come back again
Welcome back, Welcome back, Welcome back
I thought it was over
But here you come back again
Welcome back, Welcome back, Welcome back

[Verse 1]
If the winter springs
Or the summer falls
It won't have no effect on this love at all
If in another time I was you and you was I
You know I'd still recognize you all the same
This kinda love don't ever change cause

[Chorus]
I'll be lovin' you till' the sun starts shinin' blue and the
seas talk back to you
Girl I'll still be there, be there
Lovin' you until all of time is standin' still
Nothin's ever been as real to me as
This love, This love, This love
Lovin' you until
2000 and 73
We'll still be together in
2000 and 84
In love more than ever in
2000 and 93
This love just won't ever end
2000 until 2000 until 2000
Until 2000 and forever

[Verse 2]
Yeah, now if dreams could dream
Just like people do
I believe they'd dream the dream
Of the love between me and you
And even though we'll fight, and may not get along sometimes,
it's cool cause I know that if I
Fight with you, cry with you I can make it up all night with
you, soo-o-o

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
And forever...
If love ever fades away
We'll still find some to make cause time don't apply to you and
I
Cause this love goes as far as eternity
Way beyond infinity and long after we're dead
And gone we'll still be holdin' on cause

[Chorus]
I'll be lovin' you till' the sun starts shinin' blue and the
seas talk back to you
Girl I'll still be there, be there
Lovin' you until all of time is standin' still
Nothin's ever been as real to me as
This love, This love, This love,
Lovin' you until
2000 and 73
We'll still be together in
2000 and 84
In love more than ever in
2000 and 93
This love just won't ever end
2000 until 2000 until 2000
Until 2000 and forever

(feat. Mary J. Blige)

[Verse 1: (Musiq Soulchild)]
You think
Im so full of it, full of it
But I think Im just fed up baby
You think I can be so arrogant, arrogant
But Im just tryna get keep my head up baby
You think I procrastinate baby
But I think Im taking my time
You think you need to leave
But I think I disagree but

[Chorus: (Musiq Soulchild)]
If you believe youll do best without me
Ill let it go girl, Its over
But before we say good bye
Lets give it a try
If you leave, then baby I'll leave
I'll let it go girl, Its over
But I have no doubt
We can work it out

[Verse 2: (Mary J Blige)]
Yeah
I think your so full of it, full of it
You just dont know when to let up, Baby
I think you're so arrogant, arrogant
But you think you're so much better baby
That I think It aint dealt before me to judge you by your flaws
& thats why
No I could criticize, but I put that aside
To focus on you & I

[Chorus: (Mary J Blige)]
If you believe you'll do best without me
Then I'll let it go boy, Its over
But before we say goodbye
Lets give it a try
If you leave, then baby I'll leave
I'll let it go boy, its over
But I have no doubt
We can work it out
Yeah

[Bridge: (Both)]
Now if you wanna go
Baby then I'll let you go
& even though Im tryna hold on
I cant let you go

& if youre gonna leave me, youre gonna miss me
& Im not saying that Ill be here waiting

Since we here right now (instead of just walking out)
Let's work to reach the point that I know we can be ?

[Chorus: (Both)]
But if you believe, you'll do best without me
Then I guess I'll let you go
Its over (its over)
If you wanna say goodbye
Lets give it a try
If you leave, then baby I'll leave
I'll Let it go, its over
I have no doubt
That we can work it out

If you believe, you'll do best without me
I'll let it go girl, its over
Before we say goodbye
Lets give it a try
If you leave, then baby I'll leave

[Verse 1]
Who, tell me who knows you better than I do
Said it out your own mouth
I ain't even gotta say it, ooo
You ain't gotta make an issue, ooo
I ain't tryna play the victim, ooo
I'm just tryna make this thing right
How could you think that I
Could ever be better without you
I mean, I can go a few months
But everyday girl I be missin you
Me loosin you to another dude
I thought of it as so depressing, ooo
You know and I both know that we need this, that's why

[Chorus]
I'm explaining what I'm fighting for
Girl there's no one, who deserves you more
So stop subscribing to those crazy thoughts
Cause there's no one who deserves you more
Who gave you love
Don't change on me
I'll go halfcrazy if you choose to leave
That's why I'm explaining what I'm fighting for
Girl there's no one who deserves you more
Deserves you more

[Verse 2]
You don't often talk about it baby
But know it's true (it's true)
That you were insecure once
Cause someone really did you you dirty, ooo
But I encouraged you to make it through
Showed you special was a part of you
But you did the same for me too
So girl I thank you and I'm so thankful for
The times when we rise and we fall
The nights when laugh and we talk
Lets not break up
Let's be grateful that the strain of our arguments only brought
us close in spite of it all

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
We spend more time on our problems instead of
Tryna work them out to get better
However, let's turn this negative into a positive
You believe in you and I
I feel theres a need to try
If I don't fight I'll regret it for the rest of my life

[Chorus]

[Verse 1]
Thinkin' bout what we are
Thinkin' bout what we do
What do you mean to me?
What do I mean to you?
How many times have we
Felt the necessity
To be together girl
Cept for it never works
You're like the rib I need
Something like Adam and Eve
I was meant for you
You were meant for me
How you fell bout me girl
Do I light up your world?
Cuz you're the reason why
Lovin' is on my mind

[Chorus]
But is that askin' to many questions
I'm too fast or offensive?
If you could please just pardon my inquiring mind cuz I just
know
You and me go good together
Me and you got something special
Chemistry don't get no better
You and me got something special

[Verse 2]
What do you do when you
Know that you're being pursued
Would you play innocent?
Would you just let me in?
Just let me show you more
Cuz there's so much more in store
I was just wonderin' right
Why not go out tonight
Eat where the prices are high
Order whatever you like
Or we could take a ride
Or count the stars in the sky
Maybe just stay in the crib
Spend a whole day in the bed
Maybe I should start
By sayin' hello instead

[Chorus]
But is that askin' to many questions
I'm too fast or offensive?
If you could please just pardon my inquiring mind cuz I just
know
You and me go good together
Seeing you got something special
Chemistry don't get no better
You and me got something special

[Bridge]
Girl you're so far (not ordinary you're)
Got far yet you're so (extraordinary you're)
One of the one second to none (girl it's just that serious)
I'll never find (another one like you no)
Could if I tried (but she wouldn't be like you though)
You're the only one I want in my life (tell me do you feel what
I do or:)

[Chorus x2]
Is that askin' to many questions
I'm too fast or offensive?
If you could please just pardon my inquiring mind cuz I just
know
You and me go good together
Me and you got something special
Chemistry don't get no better
You and me got something special

This just might be the hardest thing I ever have to do
I never thought I'd see the day I'd be living without you
Now I cant even look you in the eyes
Cause I know what it does when I see you cry
And thats not what I wanna do

So hear is my Dear John
Dont waste your time
When you respond ill be gone
Before I change my mind
Ill just stop now and say goodbye

I realize all the promises I've made
To you through the years
And all the times you forgave me
Even when I caused you tears
But I just cant do it cant hurt you again
You might say that im less than a man
But this is what i need to do

[Chorus]
So here is my dear John
Dont waste your time
When you respond
Ill be long gone
B4 i change my mind
Ill just stop now and say goodbye

[Bridge]
I know your probably reading this
Saying this aint happening
Maybe one day we can start all over
We can try again
But right now i just gotta go
Not coming back until im sure
That i aint gonna hurt you no more

Ohh Ohh Ohh

[Chorus]
So here's my dear John
Dont waste your time
When you respond
Ill be long gone
B4 i change my mind
Ill just stop now and say goodbye

Ill just stop now and say goodbye girl
Ill just stop now and say good bye
Yeah Yeah Yeah
Ill just stop now and say goodbye
Yeah Yeah Yeah

[Verse 1]
It's really over now, She ain't comin' back
I really don't know how, things ever got this bad cause I
I said sorry way too much, this time sorry ain't enough
And now she's gone, and it's only now, that I realize
How much she means to be without

[Chorus 1]
I could loose a car, even my deposit
Still I'm with her, still can't live without the love, of my
life
And, everybody knows, money comes and goes
There's never enough but it still ain't much
Without the love, of my life

[Verse 2]
I thought that I was right, for trying to be the man
I was hustling to provide, but I guess I didn't understand that

The part that I was making the living for
I dunno why, I was just givin' up
That's why she's gone, cause she's tired of fighting
And I'm tryna' find what I should do to get her back
Cause I

[Chorus 2]
I could loose a car, even my deposit
Still I'm with her, still can't live without, the love, of my
life
And, everybody knows, money comes and goes
There's never enough but it still ain't much
Without the love of, (of my life)

[Bridge]
Cause right now, Uh (there ain't nothing in this world)
That matter (That is more than my girl)
So no matter what I (I gotta make it right)
Cause she's been (Since she didn't met us alone)
I hate my self no (I hate, me when I'm all alone)

I don't know if there's anything I could do
But I gotta find my way back to her heart
(Back to her heart, and)
(Then, do my part) {My heart}
(Back to her heart, and)
(To her heart)

So sorry for everything I ever did
If you leave me now, I don't think that I could handle it
I don't deserve another chance; but if you just give me one more

I'll give you a better man

[Chorus 2x]
I could loose a car, even my deposit
Still I'm with her, still can't live without, the love, of my
life
And, everybody knows, money comes and goes
There's never enough but it still ain't much
Without the love, of my life

[Outro Into Moneyright]

[Girl] Hey
[Musiq] You know I got you right
[Girl] Yeah
[Musiq] I just wish, I could do a 'lil more for ya

[Verse 1]
If I had an extra dollar, I'd buy you the world
But with the change I'm makin', know I just can't, give it to
you girl
Uh, Oh
And when I get a minute, I'll spend the life with you
But all the time I spend grindin just ain't enough for me and
you
Now I know that

[Hook 1]
Been around, holdin' me down, for a while now
And you never ever complain about, nothing cause you know
I would take you out, and make you smile, some how some way
Even though I know its not much today
But I know we always got tomorrow, If I gotta beg and borrow
I'ma make you happy baby

[Verse 2]
Aye, Now if I had the power, I'd make your dreams come true
But when I barely sleep and hardly eat at, the end of the day
I'm through
Yeah, Ah
If I could tell the future, I still wouldn't change a thing (Oh
noo)
Because I know no matter what I got girl, it still won't be the
same
Cause I know you

[Hook 2]
Been around, holdin' me down, for a while now
And you never ever complain about, nothing cause you know
I would take you out, and make you smile, some how some way
Even though I know its not much today
But I know we always got tomorrow, If I gotta beg and borrow
I'ma make you happy baby

Oh, Oh, Oh-Oh

I never wanted a woman that wanted
Me for my name or material things
See I always hope for a woman that's so sure, emotionally secure

With spiritual faith
A woman that I can trust with all of my secrets
And even listen to all of my issues
A woman who never judge
Me or how I was
She deals with me strictly through love

[Chorus:]
Someone who will put up with the things
Loving me can bring
But still be there to see us through
Someone who would put up
With the strange and complicated things
Cause I would do the same for her too
Someone who I can be real with
Aint gotta be perfect
Because loving one another is all that matters
It's not hard to explain
So believe me when I say
That I found all of that in you

All that I hope for a friendship that's so pure
A girl I can talk to bout whatever is on my heart
A woman that needs me
That trust and believes me
That wont take my kindness as some kind of weakness
A woman who bares her soul who is willing to let go
That wants me to lead her but knows how to take control
And when I am feeling down
Cause things are going wrong
She fills me up and makes me feel strong

[Chorus:]

You are that someone who loves me
Through all my inperfections
You know my heart is filled with nothing but good intentions
You are the one that told me
Long as we got us
Nothing matters
You are the one that sees the joy through the pain
You are my light through the rain
Here and now
Girl I am saying
It's you
You're my heart
It's you
Your that someone I can truly say that I'll never find another
love like you

[Repeat Chorus Til End]

[Verse 1:]
I was told the true definition of a man was to never cry
Work till you tired (yeah) got to provide (yeah)
Always be the rock for my fam, protect them by all means
(and give you the things that you need, baby)
Our relationship is (suffering) trying to give you (what I never had)
You say I don't know to love you baby
Well I say show me the way
I keep my feelings (deep inside I)
Shadow them (with my pride eye)
I'm trying desperately baby just work with me
[Chorus:]
Teach me how to love
Show me the way to surrender my heart, girl I'm so lost
Teach me how to love
How I can get my emotions involved
Teach me, show me how to love
Show me the way to surrender my heart, girl I'm lost
Teach me how to love
How I can get my emotions involved
Teach me, how to love
[Verse 2:]
I was always taught to be strong
never let them think you care at all
Let know one get close to me
Before (you and me)
I den' shared things wit chu girl about my past
That I'd never tell to anyone else (no)
Just keep it to myself, (yes)
Now I know I lack affection and expressing my feelings
It took me a minute to come and admit this but
See I'm really try'na (change now)

I'm tryin desperately baby hey
[CHORUS:]

How I can get my emotions involved

[Bridge:]
Ain't nobody ever took the time to try to teach me what (love was but you)
And I ain't never trust anyone enough to let em tell me (what to do)
Teach me how to show it and show me how to love you baby
(Teach me please just show me yeah)
Cause I'm (willing)
To let (go) of my (fears) girl I'm (serious)

[CHORUS:]
