[Verse 1]
All I wanna do
Is wake up every morning and be happy and be care free
And all I wanna do
Is love my man and make sure my family is okay
And I wanna sing,
The songs that I write in my head
On a stage , in a big place
And I wanna laugh
Until tears fall down my face and my abs, are aching
[HOOK]
Is that too much to ask for, in my life, to have
Nothing but the sweetest days
Too much, for one, to have
Or is it wishful thinking
[Verse 2]
oh I wanna send
My little brother Solomon to college, with no problem
And how I hope
The children that I sponsor down in Chile
They get the money I send
And I wanna fly
To Paris once a year for a vacation
With my husband
And I hope
The nation stop fighting and find sweet peace, somewhere down deep
[HOOK]
[Bridge]
I want my soul to fly free
Without a single worry
Fear or anxiety
Could it be possible for all I wish to have
. . .

[Verse 1:]
Woke up this morning feeling so bad,
out my window it was raining
didn't even feel like running, I didn't feel like doing anything
Then the phone wouldnt stop ringing and my head wouldnt stop pounding.
I feel so down I don't know why, there's something
overwhelming me inside
[Chorus:]
Just one of those days
Just another day, it don't go your way
(And tomorrow can't come soon enough for me)
Just one of those days- oooh
Just another day, it don't dg your way
(And tomorrow can't come soon enough)
[Verse 2:]
Gotta get up, any how I can't afford to lose no hours
Got a deadline that I must meet, Every second matters to me
Hard to function feeling like this
But I got to keep on going, am I in a huddle to get over
I've got to do things much darker and colder
[Chorus]
[Hook:]
Why does it seem
(Like the hours are much longer, like the day just wont be over- Tell me why)
Why do they fly
(When you least expect them, always you can never breathe in those days)
[Chorus 2x:]
La la la la
(Just one of those days)
La la la
La la la
(Tomorrow can't come soon enough for me)
La la la la
La la la
(Just another day)
La la la
(Gotta get up)
La la la la
La la la
(I've got to do things much darker and colder)

[Hook:]
Why must I fit into your box
To make this relationship work
I am human not perfection
I can't be your superwoman
[Verse 1:]
Please tell me what you wanna do
Cause I can't waste anymore time
It seems nothings good enough for you
Tryin' please you drives me outta my mind
Who do you think I'm supposed to be
This flawless thing is how you picture me
But I can't measure up to that and I wont try
Cause I only can only be me baby
[Hook]
[Verse 2:]
You know I wanna be with you
But you ask for what I can't give
I won't compromise myself for you
For my own self I must live
All I can do is love you best I can
That don't include changing who I am
And I now that I love you good so don't you think
That you should try to hold onto me
[Hook]
[Bridge:]
There is only one me
Don't paint an image of what you want me to be
That's not what we need
I wont be trapped into what your eyes want to see
. . .

[Verse 1:]
Maybe I am foolishly in love with
Someone that is
Not exactly on the same page, that I am on
Well all my friends keep telling me stop
Walking round so blindly
But when he calls they're not around
To ever remind me
[Hook:]
Maybe this isn't love, but if it isn't love then really what is love
Maybe I don't need to know whats really love
Cause when he's aournd he's got me feeling some kinda way
[Verse 2:]
I guess I kind of notioce he don't always act so kindly
But that doesn't stop my hunger, hunger for his heart
Why should I listen to thoes, who think that I should move on
Maybe what they see as drama, I see more as art
[Hook]
[Bridge:]
Cant seem to get past how he makes me feel
May not be love but it feels so real
Can't go with what they say must follow my heart
But now is that even being to to me
Maybe I'm happy, truly content
Maybe this is as good as it gets
Do I have faith in my confidence
Or an I just thinking all hopelessly
. . .

[Verse 1:]
Last night I cried tossed and turned, woke up with dry eyes.
My mind was racing, feet were pacing.
Lord help me please tell me what have I gotten into.
Ran my 3 miles to clear my mind, it always me out,
it's my therapy when I'm losing it which is usually.
[Hook:]
I'm on a emotional rollercoaster.
Loving you aint nothing healthy.
Loving you was never good for me.
But I can't get off.
[Verse 2:]
Yesterday I told myself I was gonna be okay.
Gonna start a new day be truly happy.
I was gonna take control of me.
But eventually reality hit me.
Mentally, physically, emotionally.
And I opened my eyes and realized
that I was still being taken for a constant ride
[Hook]
[Bridge:]
So tired of you making love to me, then disappearing so suddenly.
Up and down it goes.
And I'm so tired of you pacifying me
with promises you know that you'll never keep.
Round and round it goes.
. . .

|
[Verse 1:]
I loved you, just too much
You owned my emotions
Devoted, completely
You had me, I couldn't see
No one else, by myself
I remained through the pain
You were all that mattered
But now I know there's better
[Hook:]
So I walked away
While it rained down my face
I turned away
From the pain of hurting me
[Verse 2:]
I gave you full control
my mind, my body soul
Confusion, delusions, untruthful, unfaithful
Weighed down my. self-esteem
Never again will I give
My power, to be me
And be free, now I see
. . .

[Verse 1:]
We used to sit over there
That was your favorite chair
But now I sit here alone
I can still smell your scent
So fresh in my head
Still feel you kiss me goodbye
I washed clothes today.
Found some of your garments
Guess you forgot them when you left
Took out the trash as you would
And dined by myself
Guess I better get used to this
[Hook:]
We used to sit over there
That was your favorite chair
But now I sit here alone
No use crying bout it,
I'll have to do without it
And no I won't sit by the phone
[Bridge:]
Oooo it's not like you did me right
I was just comfortable and used to you
Now I see, I must first love me
And maybe Mr. Right will come strolling along
. . .

[Verse 1:]
I feel you looking at me thinking that my happiness
Is just a front and I still want you like I did back then
You walk around this town like
You're somebody's king
But baby trust me there ain't nothing that could
Make me hungry for you again
[Hook:]
I'm not affected you've been rejected
Written off my heart
There is no debt here to be collected
I don't want no part
How many times do I have to say it
You used to be smart
I'm not affected you've been rejected
And I don't want no more
[Verse 2:]
You used to walk and I got weak
I used to tremble from your speech
You used to get up in my head
When you crawled into my bed
You had me thinking stupidly
Like you and I would someday be
But that's just it baby, I'm not affected by you baby
[Hook]
[Bridge:]
You don't make or break me baby
Maybe you just can't tell, I'm not under your spell no more
I've become immune to you.
You so used to running back but I won't let you do that
. . .

[Verse 1:]
When I wake up all I want is for him to take me away
To that incredible comfort zone inside that beautiful place
When I need to release tension so that I can feel brand new
Reach that height that only one in this whole world can take me to
[Pre Hook:]
All the time I want you baby,
All the time I need you honey,
All the time I gotta have you sugar,
Because I'm addicted - oh yeah.
All the time I want you baby,
All the time I need you honey,
All the time I gotta have you sugar,
It belongs to me
[Hook:]
I'm fanatically, addicted see, the way that he be loving me
It's like a drug or some bad habbit
Since its mine, I got to have it
[Repeat]
[Verse 2:]
Oh it feels like, like I've never had it right
Before this,
There was so much emotional pain, nothing positive to gain
But I'm loved, full, and completely now
Not just a physical thang
But it's something spiritual
[Pre Hook]
[Hook]
[Vamp:]
I just gotta have it, I'm a fanatic [4x]
. . .

[Verse 1]
Shoulda know, when I looked into those eyes that, I was going to be free
From the bondage of those who never loved me
And I shoulda know, when he simply touched my hand, he would understand
All of my wants and all of my needs
You were sent alone to love me
[HOOK]
Ain't nothing but love (that what it is)
And it gets sweeter and sweeter
Like heaven on earth
Won't you just give me more and more
[Verse 2]
You love me baby winter, spring, summer and fall
And it's like I'm blinded
I see no one but you at all
Just the sound of your voices give me
Chills up my spine ya ooo it thrill me when
You love me all night
Your lips speak to me in a language I never knew ooo, but oh how
I understand your heart
When it feels the love from you
. . .
|
|
[Verse 1:]
I'll never hurt you - Oh!
And you will never shed a tear for me
I know you're tired of
Being in and out of love with nothing to show,
And nowhere to go, but
Back to the same one only with a different face
But now you are in a different place
And if my words don't comfort you
Time will surely prove,
That I'll do just what I say
[Hook:]
I'll only be good to you
(only be good to you)
Be like I should to you
(Be like I should to you)
Be everything (everything) to you bring you nothing but the good stuff
I'll give you good love
I'll only be good to you
(I'll only be good to you)
Be like I should to you
(Be like I should...Be like I should)
Be everything to you, said I'll be good to you, only be good to you
(Good to you - Oh)
[Verse 2:]
You say it's too good to be - too good
And I agree that the way it seems
Except for my instinct telling me it's something else
It's not a rebound or playground
But something that's real
I've got so much to give you
So don't you dare hesitate to receive it
If my words don't comfort you
Time will surely prove,
That I'll do what I say and more
[Hook]
[Bridge:]
I'll always be there when you fall
Never doubt my heart at all
It's you that I've chosen, you are my focus
And this ain't no phony disguise
You can see if you look down deep
They'll be nothing but good love
Good love coming from me - Oh
. . .
|
|
[HOOK]
You love me incredibly, from my head to the soles of my feet
You know you make me complete, baby
And you love me outstandingly
Can't contain it need a moment to breath
Keep on loving me, baby
[Verse 1]
What a blessing, how you found me
How you conquered me
And showed me showed me so much
Just how it should be
Sometimes I wake up when you've sleeping
Just to watch you dream
I kiss your eyelids and tell you thank you
For this reality
[HOOK]
[Verse 2]
When you're away from me I wait anxiously
Sometimes I barely sleep
Cause I'm just so used to you being wrapped up in you in between our sheet
I'm so excited for the future, what we're gonna be
I've got this glow everyone knows someone is
Loving me
[HOOK]
[Bridge]
Oh you do something to me
When you look in my eyes
The very touch of you brings me life
It's the ultimate crazy stuff
Just amazing love' keep it coming to me cause
. . .

The days are overwhelming
I swear I just can't tell if I'm
Coming or going, I wish I was all knowing
Cause I wanna fly, but what if I
Fall right on my face
But I can't stop here, I gotta face my fear
Or everyday before this was in vein
[Hook]
So I got to keep on going on
And I can't stop for nothing
So I got to keep going on and on and on
My anxiety is killing me
Sleepless nights I must defeat
Cause nothing's really wrong
Guess it just took so long
For me to get to the place, I wanted to be
Now that I'm here, I gotta face my fear
Or everyday before this was in vein
[Hook]
So I got to keep on going on
And I can't stop for nothing
So I got to keep going on and on and on
[Bridge]
I've gotta hold my head up high
Can't settle for just a little bit of sky
Can't be afraid to spread my wings and fly
I've gotta turn my dreams into life
[Hook]
So I got to keep on going on
And I can't stop for nothing
. . .
