About Her
About Her - Lyrics & Credits
Verse 1
Every morning on my way to work
I see this woman trying to get her kids to school
Now I see her there but she don't notice me
She's too wrapped up in her world she's got things to do I talked to her a few times but nothing serious
Just friendly conversation
Can't be too obvious
‘Til she could see my true intentions
My feelings I won't mention about her
Chorus
She's very kind
I've seen her soul
I can tell she's got heart of gold
I wanna make her mine so I can know
All there is to know about her
One of a kind
I know her soul
I can tell there’s something about her
Since she caught my eye
Every conversation has been about her
Verse 2
She's got three kids
Don't know where the fathers been
But that don't concern me
I just wanna know where I fit in
Not to say I wanna mess with another man’s wife
‘Cause you told me things would be easier if she had a partner in life
I didn't wanna press it further cause I don't wanna pry
All I know she's single and I can't understand why
She's got a warm smile that could melt away the cold
and there’s so much more to know
about her
Chorus
Bridge
In my mind she's everything I dreamed
but it's all hazy
does she maybe even think of me

Put This On
Put This On - Lyrics & Credits
Verse 1
I know you had something on your mind
Sooner or later you’d let me know in time
That you planned a special night
And you decided to invite
Me over
Then I’m comin’ over baby
Tell me not to bring a thing
Just come as you are
Tell me you got everything I need
What else could I want?
And it’s not that I don’t believe that you know what to do
But I think this might set the mood
Chorus
From now until the sun comes up
You’ve got my attention baby
No need to rush
Cause I’m gonna be right here
And I’m going to stay until your passion is completely fulfilled baby
It’s been so long
That’s what I’ve been waiting for
To devote myself to loving you
Don’t make me wait to know
Put this on
Don’t make me wait
If you want me put this on

Maybe
Maybe - Lyrics & Credits
Verse 1
See I never met a girl who could walk into a room and excite me
It was love at first sight when I looked into your eyes for me
Couldn’t help but fantasize
I could see you in my life as my lady
Girl this isn’t just a line
I’m feeling butterflies for you
Chorus
Maybe we can talk, get to know one another
Maybe we can touch, put my lips on you girl
Maybe we can fall so deep and discover
What’s it gonna take, what I gotta do
To spend my life with you
Verse 2
Out of all the things I tried
I’m swallowing my pride
Gotta have you
Cause you got me opened up
Maybe this is just what I need
Someone always by my side
Makin’ my whole life that much stronger - girl
Girl I want it to be you
If it means I gotta die for you
So baby we can...
Chorus
Bridge
Girl if you’re willing to take me as your man
I promise you that I will spend my life with you
Buy you everything
We’re gonna share our love for eternity
And I vow to never ever break your heart
So maybe we can...
Chorus (2x)
I come before you baby as a humble man
I wanna spend my life honey with you
When you touch me baby It’s kind of crazy baby how u got me falling
How you got me falling

Just Good Friends
Just Good Friends - Lyrics & Credits
Chorus
I know you never thought of us this way
And you know that I love you and you love me
Don’t wait deny us of our happiness
There’s no sense when we could be more than just good friends
First Verse:
Closest to me that is how you've always been
Since we were young I told you everything
Girl you know me better than I know myself
Can we be together through sickness and in health
Chorus
Second Verse
Over the years we watched each other fall in and out of love
I don’t know about you but this brother's had enough But what we have as friends there's no questioning hearts
We can build from there and make a start
Chorus
Sugar you know I need you more and more
Girl I know you never thought love would find you this way
But baby don’t wait deny us of our happiness
There's no sense when we could be more than just good friends.

Besides
Besides - Song Lyrics & Credits
Verse 1
If I write a story about our love
I’d write a climax with no ending
I would have the hero go on to live happily
with this Queen
My only inspiration will be the way you make me feel inside
Now I end all my conversations
All I want to talk about is how you love
It’s sweet it’s fine it’s real it’s mine
Easily the kind of thing a man gets used to
It beats with my heart all the time
And there isn’t anywhere (any way??) I won’t be with you
Cause you’re the only woman in my life
If I could I’d place your love in it’s own sanctuary
I would place nothing above it
Oh how I’d bow to worship it
It’s sweet it’s fine it’s real it’s mine
It’s the kind of love a man just only dreams of
It beats with my heart all the time
And there isn’t anywhere I won’t be with you (2x)
Cause you’re the only woman in my life (2x)
So come on and dance with me
Like the rhythm’s only for you
Come and dance with me
Celebrate our love
Your love is so sweet
The way you step with me is so heavenly
The joy can be described as complete
I never forget how I’m so fortunate to have you in my life
It’s sweet it’s fine it’s real it’s mine
It beats in my heart all the time
With pride I tell you you’re the only woman in my life
I’m so sure of it
I know that I tell you with pride that
You’re the only woman in my life
When you dance with me it’s like the rhythm’s only for you
Oh baby dance with me come on let’s celebrate our love
When you dance with me it’s like the rhythm’s only for you
Oh baby dance wit me come on let’s celebrate our love

Where Do We Go For Love (The Sexy Mix) Lyrics & Credits
Verse 1
Needless to say that I’m missing you right now
But you’re far away hurting me again
And if anybody knows it you do
So I don’t understand this
Tell me what’s the plan
Chorus
Where do we go for love?
Where do we go for love?
Cause I don’t see nothing new
What are we supposed to do?
Verse 2
Who should I believe?
Cause everything you told me was just a dream - everything
Girl you got me crying out over you
And it’s killing me physically
Chorus (2x)
Remember how it use to be
We were like two love birds
That’s all gone
Just tell me where we go from here
Love don’t live here no more
What went wrong?
Chorus (2x)
Where do we go from here searching for our love
Where do we go my dear I don’t know no more
Chorus (2x) -out

So Glad
So Glad - Lyrics & Credits
Verse 1
Driving around it’s a beautiful day
So many girls getting in my way
But none as half as pretty as you
You’re the only one this time it’s true
I can’t wait to get myself home
Even the sight of you really turns me on
So good to have you in my life
To brighten my days and to cool my nights
Chorus
I’m just so glad (So glad so glad so glad)
And I want you oh so bad (So bad so bad so bad) And I want you girl And I'm really oh so glad (So glad so glad so glad)
I'll give you everything I have (I have I have I have) Cause I love you girl and I’m so damn glad
Verse 2
Hello world what a beautiful morning
Eggs on the stove and my lady is smiling
I’m feeling on top of the world
Just like the daddy of a brand new baby girl
Nothing is better than the sweet feeling
Of a sexual and emotional healing
With someone you really care about
I found the one I can’t live without
Chorus
Bridge
Tonight let me take of your clothes
And put you in a new silky robe
Wanna lay your body down
So turn off the lights and unplug the phone
It’s gonna be a night of love
Like you never ever seen before
So get ready - please be ready
Because I’m taking your body & soul

Wholeheart
Wholeheart - Lyrics & Credits
Verse 1
To the creator to the sun maker
Thank you for making my style
The other half of me
She’s the one who becomes me
And I’m becoming in more in love
See for every heart beat there is a heart that’s waiting just for love
Chorus
We started alone and then from two into one (We became)
Now that my heart beats in you
(Under the sun)
To the place where my hearts beats in you
Verse 2
Now think for a minute
It’s kind of like a seed when its planted
It now has a chance to grow
If it only stays for a minute I’ll be ever so grateful for the love that I got to know
The rhythm inside me beats your name
While waiting just for love (we started)
Chorus
We started alone and then from two into one (We became)
Now that my heart beats in you
(Under the sun)
To the place where my hearts beats in you
Bridge
I like the way you know all that’s on my mind
I like when you say you love me right before I do it
It gets me high when I think about it
It’s just another reason why when I think about it
My whole heart’s beating whole heart beating

How Does It Feel
How Does It Feel - Lyrics & Credits
Verse 1
Always thought that you wanted me
Always told me that you needed to be
Holding on and loving me
But that was all a lie
See you were only into me
To get what you could from me
Cause all the time a man like me was only loving you
Chorus
I did my best for you
Never expected to receive a love with such unfaithfulness
What does your conscience say
When you look in the mirror, do you smile, or hide your face and walk away?
How does it feel? Are you impressed? Tell me, are you proud of yourself?
And in the morning when you wake up how does it feel to know you threw away love?
Verse 2
Complicated just to be with you
Imagine what I gave up just to be with you
Cause what you told me I believed was true but that was all a lie
I know this is the end today but before I let you walk away
There’s just one thing I gotta say and you need to hear me out baby
Chorus
How does it feel? Are you impressed? Tell me, are you proud of yourself?
And in the morning when you wake up how does it feel to know you threw away love?

Best of My Love
Best of My Love - Lyrics & Credits
Verse 1
Don’t you go
We’ve got time despite all our delaying
Let’s just be glad we’ve came along
See now I know you’re all mine
That news to me was critical
Now there’s no holding back inside
Chorus
I’ve been waiting just to give you the best of my love Now our limits up to the sky
There’s no way I’ll ever let you down
Guaranteed that when you get the best of my love We’ll take it on a natural high
There’s no way we’ll ever see the ground
Never on the best of my love
Verse 2
We’re too far for our lie to come restrain our feelings The truth is what got us here tonight
We’re too close for 'goodbye' or maybe try tomorrow See now is what makes our whole lives
and it feels so good to tell you
Chorus
Bridge:
Knowing what we pray for will always come on time See it’s all on a verge of miracle
They way you and I came to be
We have no plans to rush love
And now it’s on you and it’s raining on me
And now I have to grab you and beg you to don’t you ever leave

My All Is You
My All Is You - Lyrics & Credits
Verse 1
Have I told you what you've done since you've come into my life
I will try to say what my heart feels
You see I hope words are suffice
Because my life alone was empty
My house was not a home
And it was like you knew you came right through my door
So now until forever babe I'll say
Chorus:
Forever and for always my all is you
‘Cause you know you’re my whole life
Forever and for always my all is you
Verse 2
When I see you in my dreams I know that you’re more than a special woman
when I feel you in the night I know you are all that I've been prayin’ for
My life alone was empty
My house was not at home
And it was like you knew you came right through my door
Chorus
Bridge:
You’re everything that I hoped for and needed in life My heart belongs to only you
So let’s go exchange our vows gonna make you my wife
This love is forever
Chorus
You're simply everything a man needs and that’s forever ‘Cause you're my whole life

Now Is Mine
Now Is Mine - Lyrics & Credits
Verse 1
I’m so glad that my daddy used to say to me
Don’t you go messing around now with my LP's
Otherwise I don't think I would possibly know my future plans
See my best friend’s name was Curiosity
So 'C' and me, we just had to listen
I’d never ever know that the vinyl would melt in me
Now if someone told you, that the line that you walk would come true if you place it all in your mind
Pre: (2x)
That's my call I had to run with it
Ain’t no reason to stop
It's just the natural in me to know I have come
Chorus
So this is for Jesus Children
and Footsteps in the dark
‘Cause you do for love you're on the winning side
And for Songs of Redemption you brought the sunshine
Tomorrow is never promised but now is mine
Verse 2
Now no doubt this is 'bout the inspirations and where it is in your situation
if you listen good it's speaking to you now
so if somehow you may answer you may feel the pleasure of when you get to testify
Pre Cho. (2x)
Chorus
Bridge:
This is for Love and Happiness
If You Don’t Know me By Now
The Beat Goes On so Take your Time
More Bounce to blow your thing
It's Alright with me
Just Keep on Moving
and Keep Rising to the Top
to the angels before me
I wish you heaven and I thank you
you taught me love, you taught me soul,
you taught me to be thankful for my blessings,
and inspiration
