letra de We Belong Together
Sweet love

I didn't mean it

When I said I didn't love you so

I should've held on tight

I never should've let you go

I didn't know nothing

I was stupid

I was foolish

I was lying to myself

I could not fathomed that I would ever be without your love

Never imagined I'd be sitting here beside myself

'Cause I didn't know you

'Cause I didn't know me

But I thought I knew everything

I never felt

The feeling that I'm feeling

Now that I don't hear your voice

Or have your touch and kiss your lips

'Cause I don't have a choice

Oh, what I wouldn't give to have you lying by my side right here

'Cause baby

When you left I lost a part of me

It's still so hard to believe

Come back baby please

'Cause we belong together

Who else am I gonna lean on when times get rough?

Who's gonna talk to me on the phone 'til the sun comes up?

Who's gonna take your place?

There ain't nobody better

Oh baby, baby

We belong together

I can't sleep at night

When you are on my mind

Bobby Womack's on the radio

Singing to me

'If you think you're lonely now'

Wait a minute

This is too deep, too deep

I gotta change the station

So I turn the dial

Tryna catch a break

And then I hear Babyface

I only think of you

And it's breaking my heart

I'm tryna keep it together

But I'm falling apart

I'm feeling all out of my element

I'm throwing things

Crying

Trying to figure out

Where the hell I went wrong

The pain reflected in this song

Ain't even half of what I'm feeling inside

I need you need you back in my life, baby

(in my life, in my life)

When you left I lost a part of me

It's still so hard to believe

Come back baby please

'Cause we belong together

Who else am I gonna lean on when times get rough?

Who's gonna talk to me on the phone 'til the sun comes up?

Who's gonna take your place?

There ain't nobody better

Oh baby, baby

We belong together, baby!

When you left I lost a part of me

It's still so hard to believe

Come back, baby, please

'Cause we belong together

Who am I gonna lean on when times get rough?

Who's gonna talk to me 'til the sun comes up?

Who's gonna take your place?

There ain't nobody better

Oh baby, baby

We belong together

Shake It OffVer letra 3:52

letra de Shake It Off
[Chorus]
I gotta shake you off
'Cause the loving ain't the same
And you keep on playing games
Like you know I'm here to stay
I gotta shake it off
Just like the Calgon commercial
I really gotta get up outta here
And go somewhere
I gotta shake it off
Gotta make that move
Find somebody who
Appreciates all the love I give
Boy I gotta shake it off
Gotta do what's best for me
Baby and that means I gotta
Shake you off
By the time you get this message
It's gonna be too late
So don't bother paging me
Cause I'll be on my way
See I grabbed all my diamonds and clothes
Just ask your momma she knows
You're gonna miss me baby
Hate to say "I told you so"
Well at first I didn't know
But now it's clear to me
You would cheat with all your freaks
And lie compulsively
So I packed up my Louis Vuitton
Jumped in your ride and took off
You'll never ever find a girl
Who loves you more than me
[Chorus]
I gotta, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake it
Off, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake it
(Gotta shake it off) off, shake, shake, shake, shake,
Shake it off, shake, shake, shake, shake,shake it off
I found out about a gang
Of your dirty little deeds
With this one and that one
By the pool, on the beach, in the streets
Heard y'all was
Hold up my phone's breakin' up
I'ma hang up and call the machine right back
I gotta get this off of my mind
You wasn't worth my time
so I'm leaving you behind
Cause I need a real love in my life
Save this recording because
I'm never coming back home
Baby I'm gone
Don't cha know
[Chorus]
I gotta, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake it
Off, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake it
(Gotta shake it off) off, shake, shake, shake, shake,
Shake it off, shake, shake, shake, shake,shake it off
[Chorus]

Mine AgainVer letra 4:01

letra de Mine Again
I remember when you used to be mine
Way back when
I was too naive to love you right
But now if I only had the opportunity
I would do anything
Because my heart still believes
Maybe you could be mine again
Maybe we could make that dream for real
Like way back then
When love was yours and mine
Maybe we could bring it back to life
It's irrelevant to dwell on the past
I'm accountable for what went bad
And I mean that
But I keep on praying for another chance
Just to have you back
Cause I've grown
And I know how to be your everything
Maybe you could be mine again
Maybe we could make that dream for real
Like way back then
When love was yours and mine
Maybe we could bring it back to life
No, no it ain't over yet
I just can't accept the possibility
We weren't made for each other's arms
I know you're my destiny
We can't erase what was meant to be
Part of you and part of me
If we try one more time
Maybe somehow we'll survive
Maybe you could be mine again
Maybe we could make that dream for real
Like way back then
When love was yours and mine
Boy maybe we could bring it back
Maybe we could bring it back
Maybe we could bring it back to
Life
Maybe you could be mine

letra de Stay The Night
You're kissing me
And saying I'm the one you need
To keep you warm
And lay with you tonight
Baby I feel the same way
I don't want to leave
want to hold you close
And feel your love inside
But I don't want to play myself
Cause I know you're with someone else
And I don't need complications in my life
And I don't want to fall back in
And get caught up in you again
Boy I'm so conflicted in my mind
[Chorus]
You keep saying stay the night
Just let me rock you till the morning light
It's cold outside
And much too late to drive
You know I need you baby
I'm so lost without your love
Obviously, procrastinating just to be
Close to you a little longer now
It's hard for me to break away from you baby
Never could resist you
And I still haven't learned how
And I don't want to be a fool
But it's hard when it comes to you
And I'm feeling vulnerable tonight
Cause I don't want to miss the chance
Of reliving our sweet romance
Boy I'm so confused down deep inside
[Chorus]

letra de Get Your Number
[chorus]
Oh damn
The club 'bout to close in a minute
Can I get your number baby
So you and I can go get in it
Let me come and pick you up
And go take you out
Can I get your number baby
So I can show you what I'm all about
What I'm all about
Damn

I've been checkin' you out
And I noticed that you ain't just one of the crowd
So tell me won't you
Come on and see about me baby
I've got the Crys on ice and I'm 'bout to get nice
Up in VIP with all my ladies
Tell me how many times in your life
Will you get an opportunity like this tonight
Tell me a little somethin' about you
Here's a little somethin' about me
I got a house in Capri and my own G4
And that Benz with the doors that lift up from the floor

[chorus]
Oh damn
The club 'bout to close in a minute
Can I get your number baby
So you and I can go get in it
Let me come and pick you up
And go take you out
Can I get your number baby
So I can show you what I'm all about
What I'm all about
Damn

Now that you're sitting next to me
I bet you're wondering
What my intentions are for you
And I to get into
Baby I just wanna
Hug and kiss and love ya
Look into my eyes baby don't be shy
Is it yes or no
We ain't got all night
Tell me how many times in your life
Will you get an opportunity like this tonight
Tell me a little somethin' about you
Here's a little somethin' about me
I gotta pimp penthouse with a sick hot tub
We can watch the flat screen
While the bubbles fill it up

[chorus]
Oh damn
The club 'bout to close in a minute
Can I get your number baby
So you and I can go get in it
Let me come and pick you up
And go take you out
Can I get your number baby
So I can show you what I'm all about
What I'm all about
Damn

One And OnlyVer letra 3:14

[X]
letra de One And Only
I'm lookin' for my one and only
Every time I turn around
I find my heart in pieces on the ground
So so lonely
I'm lookin' for my one and only

[Verse 1]
I'm riding home in pain again baby
But that don't mean s*** to you
You're currently engaged
In an intimate conversation
With a young groupie or two
They say "players only love you
when they're playing games"
Still I gave my heart to you
I should have stayed away
Like my friends all told me to

[Chorus]
Every time I turn around
I find my heart in pieces on the ground
So so lonely
I'm lookin' for my one and only
Every time I turn around
I find my heart in pieces on the ground
Why can't I find my one and only

[Verse 2]
See I'm looking for a man that'll rub me slow
Make me sing real high
When he goes down low
But see it ain't just a physical thing
He's gotta treat me affectionately
And I gotta know he won't betray my trust
Just like every other motherf***** does
Is this just an impossible dream baby
To elusive to pursue
It's been such a sad and windy road for me
Just searchin' for the truth

[Chorus]
Every time I turn around
I find my heart in pieces on the ground
So so lonely
I'm lookin' for my one and only
Every time I turn around
I find my heart in pieces on the ground
Why can't I find my one and only

[Twista]
Now you know roll a beemer and a benz
When I'm dishin out ends
Why you trppin on a player baller
Havin good conversation while we rollin on 2-4's
And I know you got doubts
But why you listenin to what people talkin bout
You ain figured out why they call ya
The hefas steady hatin cause you rollin on 2-4's
See how yo money flo
You dressed in designer clothes from head to ya toe
You ain't satisfied well tell me what you lookin for
(I'm lookin for my one and only)
Well I'll be yo one and only if you give me a chance
I'll make a change for you girl
I know I ain been the mos faithful n**** in the world
But lets stay togetha so we can shine like pearls
Spit it to her while I fill her got her hot like fire
To kiss yo lips I desire
Twis and Mariah togetha like them grips on ya tires
(Lookin for my one and only)
Well come here shawty well let me make it better
We can do whateva while we sittin on sued and leather
Flickin through the city while we ridin on chrome
Lets kick it in the Chi
I know I messed up wit you an i ain gon lie
I know you was feelin you really know yo guy
But baby girl I ain't mean to blow yo high
Let me pick the pieces up and but um back togetha
Cause I wanna be wit you don't wanna leave you lonely
Ride wit you like a hommie neva no fony
Shawty can I be yo one an only

Every time--oh-mmm
Every time I turn around
I find my heart in pieces on the ground
So so loney
Why--
I'm looking for my one and only
Every time I turn around

Whey can't I find my one and only
Still lookin' for my one and only
Every time I turn around

letra de Circles
Ever since you left me
I've been trying to hide the pain
Painting on a smile with lipstick
Putting on a big charade
So difficult to keep pretending
It's getting harder everyday
It's plain to see I'm cold and heartsick
Since you turned and walked away
I just keep going round and round
And round in circles
Keep on tumbling down
Oh boy my world has changed
And I don't think I can make it without out
Nothing's the same
You got me running around in circles over you
(Running around in circles over you)
Saturday I saw you
Holding hands with someone new
Somehow I kept my composure
Just like everything was cool
But inside I kept repeating
Don't you let them see you cry
So I casually turned my head
As the tears rolled down my eyes
I just keep going round and round
And round in circles
Keep on tumbling down
Oh boy my world has changed
And I don't think I can make it without out
Nothing's the same
You got me running around in circles over you
(Running around in circles over you)
Everything is you
How can I pull through
My heart is consumed I'm so confused
Still caught up in you...love can be so cruel
Baby don't know how to turn you loose
Oh boy my world has changed
And I don't think I can make it without you
No, nothing's the same
You got me running around
And running around
And running around
Nothing's the same
Baby baby cause you
Got me running around
In circles over you
(Running around in circles over you)

Sit at home and fantasize

I'm gonna make you want to
Get with me tonight

See I used to be afraid
But now baby I can't wait

letra de I Wish You Knew
I've got to see you
Wherever you are
And I've got to be there
I'm wishing on stars
I've got to reveal what's inside of my heart
But the words escape me
And I'm paralyzed
So helpless when I
Look into your eyes
[Chorus]
And how I wish you only knew
What I feel inside for you
You probably haven't got a clue
But I wish you knew
How I love you baby
Honestly I know it's silly of me
To want you so badly
But keep it concealed
See my inferiority complex kicks in
And the words escape me
And I'm paralyzed
So helpless when I
Look into your eyes
[Chorus]

letra de Joy Ride
Baby baby don't you ever let go
More and more until we both overflow
Got a feeling that my heart's never known
I found love
Tender kisses and I'm floating on air
You can have me anytime, anywhere
When you need me I will always be there
I found love
And our love goes round and round
Way up high, a joy ride
We can touch the stars above
We found love
And our love was heaven sent
From the day we first met
We've got something they can't touch
We found love
Loving you is like a taste of heaven
want to gaze into your eyes forever
Run away and spend our lives together
I've found love
Baby baby
All it takes is one touch
And immediately I feel a rush
Baby boy, too much is never enough
I found love
And our love goes round and round
Way up high, a joy ride
We can touch the stars above
We found love
And our love was heaven sent
From the day we first met
We've got something they can't touch
We found love
I don't need anything
When you're here next to me
Nobody in this whole wide world
Could ever replace you in my eyes
We found paradise
Forever you and I
Our love goes round and round
On a joy ride
(With ya babe, with ya babe,
With ya babe, with you baby)

letra de Fly Like A Bird
Somehow I know that
There's a place up above
With no more hurt and struggling
Free of all atrocities and suffering
Because I feel the unconditional love
From one who cares enough for me
To erase all my burdens
And let me be free to...
[Chorus]
Fly like a bird
Take to the sky
I need you now, Lord
Carry me high
Don't let the world break me tonight
I need the strength of you by my side
Sometimes this life can be so cold
I pray you'll come and carry me home
Can we recover?
Will the world ever be
A place of peace and harmony
With no war and with no brutality?
If we loved each other
We would find victory
But in this harsh reality
Sometimes I'm so despondent
That I feel the need to...
[Chorus]
Keep your head to the sky
With God's love you'll survive
Fly like a bird
Take to the sky
I need you now, Lord
Carry me high
Don't let the world break me tonight
I need the strength of You by my side
Sometimes this life can be so cold
I pray You'll come and carry me home
Carry me higher, higher, higher
Carry me higher, higher, higher
Carry me home
Higher, Jesus
Carry me higher, Lord
