Tracie Monique Spencer (born July 12, 1976) is an American R&B and pop singer-songwriter, actress, and model.
Spencer was born and raised in Waterloo, Iowa. She began singing by the age of three and modeling in pageant competitions at age five. Tracie performed, produced and directed her first music videos before she was ten years of age. This led to her competing on Star Search the 1980s CBS televised talent competition. She performed Whitney Houston's 1986 hit "How Will I Know" and won the competition.
Shortly thereafter, she became the youngest female artist to sign a record deal with a major label, Capitol Records, and to release a self-titled debut album on January 16, 1988. She found success with the singles "Hide and Seek", "Symptoms of True Love" and her remake of John Lennon's "Imagine". Her second album, Make the Difference, was released on August 27, 1990.
The first single, "Save Your Love", showed an impressive standing at #7 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks chart. Her following single, "This House", became her biggest hit to date reaching #3 on the Billboard Hot 100. "Tender Kisses", one of her best known ballads, hit #1 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks and made her the youngest female artist to receive the ASCAP songwriter of the year award. The other singles, "This Time Make It Funky" and "Love Me", charted relatively well on The Billboard Hot 100 and the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks.
Save your love, save it up
Save your love, save it up
How can I touch you so far away
I'll miss you more than these words can say
I know you're lonely but so am I
But when temptation calls you remember you're my guy
Save your love, my love save it just for me
Save it up, every drop till you're here with me
Save it all, don't you fall to my heart be true
'Cause I'm saving my love for you
You know I trust you with all my heart
Still I get jealous when we're apart
It's only human you're gonna flirt
But if you get too friendly baby, I'll get hurt
Save your love, my love save it just for me
Save it up, every drop till you're here with me
Save it all, don't you fall for somebody new
'Cause I'm saving my love for you
Kenny called me late last night
Hoping he could steal my heart away
I'll keep hanging up on him
All that I'm asking is you do the same
Save it, save it
Saving it just for you baby
[Incomprehensible] save it
[Incomprehensible] save it, save it
Save your love, my love save it just for me
Save it up, every drop till you're here with me
Save it all, don't you fall to my heart be true
'Cause I'm saving my love for you, yeah
Save your love, my love save it just for me
Save it up, every drop till you're here with me
Save it all, don't you fall for somebody new
'Cause I'm saving my love for you
Save your love, my love save it just for me
Save it up, every little drop till you're here with me
Save it all, don't you fall to my heart be true
'Cause I'm saving my love for you
Save your love, my love save it just for me
Save it up, every drop till you're here with me
Save it all, don't you fall for somebody new
'Cause I'm saving my love for you
Save your love, save it up
Save your love, save it up
Save your love, save it up
Save your love, save it up
Oh, I just want you to know
No matter where you go
It doesn't matter 'cause you're still in my heart
Thinkin' of you brings tears to my eyes
Seems yesterday, we were planning our lives
I'm so confused, wonderin' why
How could you leave without sayin' goodbye
Picture your smile inside of my head
Still smell your cologne all over my bed
Miss you so much, I pray every night
That the angels are watching and treating you right
Oh, I just want you to know
No matter where you go
It doesn't matter 'cause you're still in my heart
I sing to myself, so nobody hears
There's just no escaping, the sounds of my tears
Miss you so much and every night
I can't get to sleep, it ain't right
Memories keep holding me down
There's just no fun when you're not around
Don't know what to do, now I'm faced with the truth
Somehow I thought that we would always be
Oh, I just want you to know
No matter where you go
It doesn't matter 'cause you're still in my heart
Oh, I just want you to know
No matter where you go
It doesn't matter 'cause you're still in my heart
Still in my heart, still in my heart
You're still in my heart
It doesn't matter 'cause you're still in my heart
You're still in my heart
You're still in my heart
You're still in my heart
It doesn't matter 'cause you're still in my heart
You're still in my heart
You're still in my heart
You're still in my heart
Hold out your hand
and understand
and try to realize
Don't be afraid
'cause you were made
To soar and touch the sky
Mom and dad you need
to learn to see the world
from all your childrens' eyes
Open your heart
It's time to start
to hear from me the truth
It's all up to you
In all you do
Make your visions all come true
I won't be so sad
When you get concerned
About the dreams of my youth
Lullaby, my child
It may take a while
but where there's a will
I know
There's a way
Lullaby child
Smile my child
Like me you'll be
Free someday
Lullaby my child
It may take a while
But where there's a will
Where there's a will
But where there's a will
I know
There's a way
Times are changing and I'm changing too
A new direction and this nasty groove
Gets me over in a funky way
[Chorus:]
This time make it funky
Make it funky this time
This time make it funky
Drop the bass and make it funky
I'm steady moving I want
This world to know,
Just what I'm doing,
I've got to take control
Made my mind to come back
Hard this time
Yo, Tracie
What
Tell 'em what's ony our mind
I've got plenty of clothes to wear
Diamonds and jewels so rare
I've got money and cars but that's not
Enough for me
Something is missing in my life
One thing I know can make it right
If I could only get my hands on it
But all I've got is
Chorus:
Too much of nothing
And not enough of a good thing
I'd rather have love than most anything
Too much of nothing
And not enough of a real thing
I'd rather have love
I've been on a cruise around the world
I've seen buildings made of gold
I've got more than the average girl
But still it's not enough
Something is missing in my life
One thing I know can make it right
If I could only get my hands on it
But all I've got is
Chorus
Bridge:
It's not enough, it's not enough
It's not enough, no, it's not enough
how did you make it
make me go out of my mind?
Poisoned arrows
burning fever
strings in my heart.
Now my pulse is racing
temperature is rising high
Poisoned arrows
burning forever
strings in my heart.
Symptoms of true love take my breath away
Make me shake
I cannot get enough of your kisses
babe
tender touch
The symptoms of true love.
I know what the cure is
I know a thing to take away
All the headache
all the heartache
all of my pain.
Give me all your lovin
care for me all night and day
Do it quickly and I will be in recovery.
Symptoms of true love take my breath away
Put me on my knees night and day
I'm ready for take-off
Come and fly with me
don't delay the symptoms of true love!
Symptoms of true love take my breath away
Symptoms of true love take my breath away
Put me on my knees night and day
the symptoms of true love
Come and fly with me
don't delay the symptoms of true love.
Take my breath away
baby
darlin'
Where do we go from here?
What must we do to make that change?
It's time to understand, understand one another
In a world so cold a place of disbelief
Where will the people go without enough to eat
Let's not give up hope
We have to find a way
Search within our soul to make a better day
[Chorus:]
This house is our house
Let's do it for the people
This house is their house
Let's give it back to the people
The people of the world today
I see hurt in their eyes
I hear the sounds of voices cry
It's time to open our eyes
Time to help one another
In a world so cold a place of disbelief
Where can the people go to find a place to sleep
Let's not give up hope we have to find a way
Search within our soul to make a better day
[Chorus]
[Bridge:]
You-Me-We can make the difference
And you know no one, no one likes to be alone
We got to face it heart to heart
We have to make a brand new start
We got to change the tears to smiles
We have to go the exta mile
(You-me) It's time we face reality
(We can make the difference)
Give them hope and set them free
I think it's time we say goodbye
To all the homeless people's cry
[Rap:]
We've got to take the time to search the mind to find
This house, our house
(It's all in the hands of love)
(I said it's all in the hands of love)
I think I caught your fever
I felt it right away
I had the urge to tell you
But I still shied away
And since you never told me
Then how was I to know
That you felt like me to the third degree
And you didn?t wanna let me go
The closer that you get to me
The more I wanna make you see
That you?ll never find a love like mine
I think about you all the time
The closer that I get to you
The less I feel I have to prove
That you?ll never find a love like mine
I really need you in my life
Closer
Emotions secondary
My body loved you first
It?s in the way you touch me
It only makes it worse
I can?t control this feelin?
You?re hittin? on my nerves
Let me guide you to the place
If you wanna taste
'Cuz my love will fill you up
The closer that you get to me
The more I wanna make you see
That you?ll never find a love like mine
I think about you all the time
The closer that I get to you
The less I feel I have to prove
That you?ll never find a love like mine
I really need you in my life
Closer
Close to me is where you need to be
'Cuz I can give you what you need
I?ll never turn away, here for you
So tell me what you wanna do
Be close to me 'cuz my love is all you need
The closer that you get to me
The more I wanna make you see
That you?ll never find a love like mine
I think about you all the time
The closer that I get to you
The less I feel I have to prove
That you?ll never find a love like mine
I really need you in my life
Closer
The closer that you get to me
The more I wanna make you see
That you?ll never find a love like mine
I think about you all the time
The closer that I get to you
The less I feel I have to prove
That you?ll never find a love like mine
I really need you in my life
Closer
The closer that you get to me
The more I wanna make you see
That you?ll never find a love like mine
I think about you all the time
The closer that I get to you
The less I feel I have to prove
That you?ll never find a love like mine
I really need you in my life
Closer
When we 1st met, you stole my heart away
Your love was incredible, wonderful, then you began to change
You used 2 make me feel special, now all you do is make me cry
I gave you my everything, baby, but all you gave me was lies....
Chorus
I, I, tried 2 be the 1 4 for baby
You, you, neva wasn't nothin, what I
Do, do, that's why I'm leavin
Cuz it's all about you and not about me
(repeat)
When we get in a fight, I'm always 1st 2 apologize
Even if it was you did wrong
I never do enough 2 please you, that's why I can't go on
No matter what I do 4 u, it's never any good 4 you
You always gotta complain, that's why I have 2 say
I can't stay!
Chorus
I, I
You, you (say you, you, you)
Do, do (what I do, what I do)
Cuz it's all about you, and not about me
(your selfish baby, oh yeah, yeahaaaaaaaaa)
Anything you want I do
I never understand how you
Could treat me bad and be so cruel
You beggin me 2 come back 2 you
(?) you gave all my love, and what I had was not enough
You turned around and broke my trust
Got the nerve 2 ask me "what about us?"!!
Chorus (2x)
never wasn't nothin what I do, what I do . . .
In my dreams it's still the same
Your love is strong, it still remains
Toss and turn all night in the sheets
When I can't sleep
Night after night don't know what it means
In my dreams
What can I say or do
You won't come back, we're through
I've realized too late
That, baby, your love has turned away
In my dreams it's still the same
Your love is strong, it still remains
In my dreams you're still by me
Just the way it used to be
Calling your name, but you're turning away
Please don't leave
Running in circles, waiting to see you
In my dreams
What can I say or do
You won't come back, we're through
I've realized too late
That, baby, your love has turned away
In my dreams it's still the same
Your love is strong, it still remains
In my dreams you're still by me
Just the way it used to be
In my dreams it's still the same
Your love is strong, it still remains
In my dreams you're still by me
Just the way it used to be
In my dreams it's still the same
Your love is strong, it still remains
In my dreams you'll always be
In my heart and in my dreams
In my dreams it's still the same
In my dreams you're still by me
In my dreams just the way it used to be
In my dreams
In my dreams what can I say
In my dreams you're still by me
And in my dreams you'll always be
In my dreams you'll always be
In my dreams your love is strong
In my dreams you're still the same
In my dreams
In my dreams
Didn't know if I could make it
I tried to hold out as long as I could
I have to tell you how I feel
Cause I don't want to be misunderstood
[Bridge 1:]
It's time that we got together
And prove what a love should be
Our love could be like a dream
We could be a fantasy if only you will just
[Chorus:]
Love me, love me, I'll be there for you
Love me, love me, it will be a dream come true
Love me, love me, hapiness is overdue
Love me, love me, the way that I love you
I know you've been through so many changes
With other loves that weren't there for you
If you let me in your life I'll do all that I can
To make this love paradise for two
[Bridge 2:]
Someone to share life forever
That's what I'll be for you
We'll leave the whole world behind
This would be reality if only you would just
My heart was made for you
On my lips you see your name
I adore you
WHen I need your affection
You send all your lovin'
In my direction
[Chorus:]
You gave your love to me
For all the world to see
And I like that (I like that)
You showed me how to love
A way that no one does
And I like that (I like that)
You call, send me the flowers
Whisper sweet things in my ear
Oh, baby
Every day you tell me things
That a girl likes to hear
You've given me everything
All I'll ever need
Oh, honey
You're on my mind all the time
Cause you're so good to me
Oh, oh, oh
[Bridge:]
I can't imagine to be without
The love you give to me
Oh boy I need you in my life
You fulfill my hopes and dreams
Promise me no one will take
Your precious love away
Cause I need your love
Here to stay
[Chorus]
I like that
[Bridge]
I need your love
I need it
I like that
I like that
Oh, oh, oh
Yeah, yeah, hey, hey, I like that
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, hey
Ah yeah, I like that
I like the way you walk
I like the way you talk
You know you mean so much to me
And I like that
I, I, I like that
Oh, oh, oh, whew
Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace
You may say that I'm a dreamer
But you know that I'm not the only one, no
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will live as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or for hunger, oh no
A brotherhood of man
I wanted to imagine all the people
Sharing all of the world
Sharing it, sharing it
You may say that I'm a dreamer
But you know that I'm not the only one, no
I hope some day that you'll join us
The world, the world will live as one
(The world will live as one)
My brothers and sisters
(The world will live as one)
Will be gonna as one walking heaven, hell
(The world will live as one)
Will live as one

(Sonja Blade)
We on point like game time
Ya ?
In the day it's rain & shine
It still remain prime
Runnin' the same line
Could I sample some
of your junk in the trunk
Like Sanford & Son
I answer tongue certainly
Sex you vertically
Make your chick wanna murder me
Word to key
I got love for you
I still do
For real Boo
You know I feel you
Feelin' your vibe when your next to me
All I wanna know is are you down for me

Feelin' your thought as you think of me
Gettin' real close
Almost askin' me

I'm feelin' you
I?ve been over you for some time, now baby
I don?t miss your kiss like before, now
Anymore now if you ask me how I?m doin??
I?m fine, all I needed was a little time
So if you think that I?ll still need ya, baby
I really don?t know why
Oh baby, since you left me I think
That my world's been torn apart
But if you see me, baby, you?ll see
That nothing?s broken, nothing?s broken but my heart
You won?t see no tears in my eyes, now baby
If you think I?m sad that you?re gone now
Then you?re wrong, now if you ask me if I?m happy
I?m free, tell ya that?s the way I wanna be
And all those nights we shared together, baby
Well, they don?t mean a thing
Oh baby, since you left me I think
That my world's been torn apart
But if you see me, baby, you?ll see
That nothing?s broken, nothing?s broken but my heart
Oh baby, since you left me I think
That my world's been torn apart
But if you see me, baby, you?ll see
That nothing?s broken, nothing?s broken but my heart
Oh baby, since you left me I think
That my world's been torn apart
But if you see me, baby, you?ll see
That nothing?s broken, nothing?s broken but my heart
Yesterday you told me that I was crazy
While all this time you said that I was your baby
I tried to look beyond your lies
But I refuse to waste another tear and cry over you
I really should see it comin' when I wanted some
You would give me nothing
Like a little girl with dreams you sold, baby, I got to let it go
You need to know I'm in control and got no hope
I'm not gonna cry another tear for you
You had me going crazy for a week or two
I can't believe you lied to me, now
I'm not gonna cry another tear for you
'Cause now I know we're through, I'm not gonna cry over you
Fell in love then you misled me
Setting time that you'll be ready
I contemplated lovin' you and did the things that you asked me to
And why my life, my life, my life?
Happiness is what I am seekin'
A stronger love is what I'm needin'
Lookin' for some company
Tryin' to find reality in love, good love, my baby
I'm not gonna cry another tear for you
You had me going crazy for a week or two
I can't believe you lied to me, now
I'm not gonna cry another tear for you
'Cause now I know we're through, I'm not gonna cry over you
Never needed anyone to justify my love
You should be ashamed 'cause you're to blame
Only time will show what goes around comes around
Oh baby, you're gonna end up lonely, gonna cry
I'm not gonna cry another tear for you
You had me going crazy for a week or two
I can't believe you lied to me, now
I'm not gonna cry another tear for you
'Cause now I know we're through, I'm not gonna cry over you
I'm not gonna cry another tear for you
You had me going crazy for a week or two
I can't believe you lied to me, now
I'm not gonna cry another tear for you
'Cause now I know we're through, I'm not gonna cry over you
I'm not gonna cry another tear for you
You had me going crazy for a week or two
I can't believe you lied to me, now
I'm not gonna cry another tear for you
'Cause now I know we're through, I'm not gonna cry over you
All about you
All about you
Like I do
It?s all I been and I?m about it
Feels so right and I just can?t explain
Oh ya

And if you give me my repect, baby

Touch me, it?s alright, let me bring you heaven tonight
And love me till you cry, screams of passion, call my name
I don?t care what it takes, I don?t care what you do
Just as long as I get the chance to make love to you
I don?t care what it takes, I don?t care what you do
Just as long as I get the chance to make love to you
Even though the look in your eyes just turns me on, babe
My shining star my dream come true
Baby just come to me and I?ll do everything
Make it go on and on again, I wanna love ya baby
Te quiero nocho este noche, just touch me
I don?t care what it takes, I don?t care what you do
Just as long as I get the chance to make love to you
I don?t care what it takes, I don?t care what you do
Just as long as I get the chance to make love to you
I don?t care what it takes, I don?t care what you do
Just as long as I get the chance to make love to you
When we first met, stole my heart away
Your love was incredible, wonderful
Then you began to change
You used to make me feel special
Now all you do is make me cry
I gave you my everything, baby
But all you gave me was lies
I, I try to be the one for baby
You, you never was into nothin'
What I do, do
That?s why I?m leaving
'Cause it?s all about you
And not about me
When we get in a fight
I?m always the first to apologize
Even if it was you who did wrong
I never do enough to please you
That?s why I can?t go on
No matter what I do for you
It?s never any good for you
You always got to complain
That?s why I got to say, "I can?t stay"
I, I try to be the one for baby
You, you never was into nothin'
What I do, do
That?s why I?m leaving
'Cause it?s all about you
And not about me
I, I try to be the one for baby
You, you never was into nothin'
What I do, do
That?s why I?m leaving
'Cause it?s all about you
And not about me
Selfish baby, anything you want, I do
I never understand how you
Could treat me bad and be so cruel
You?re begging me to come back to you
Baby, I gave you all my love
But what I had was not enough
You turned around, broke my trust
Got the nerve to ask me, "What about us?"
I, I try to be the one for baby
You, you never was into nothin'
What I do, do
That?s why I?m leaving
'Cause it?s all about you
And not about me
I, I try to be the one for baby
You, you never was into nothin'
What I do, do
That?s why I?m leaving
'Cause it?s all about you
And not about me
I, I try to be the one for baby
You, you never was into nothin'
What I do, do
That?s why I?m leaving
'Cause it?s all about you
And not about me
Save your love, save it up
Save your love, save it up
How can I touch you so far away
I'll miss you more than these words can say
I know you're lonely but so am I
But when temptation calls you remember you're my guy
Save your love, my love save it just for me
Save it up, every drop till you're here with me
Save it all, don't you fall to my heart be true
'Cause I'm saving my love for you
You know I trust you with all my heart
Still I get jealous when we're apart
It's only human you're gonna flirt
But if you get too friendly baby, I'll get hurt
Save your love, my love save it just for me
Save it up, every drop till you're here with me
Save it all, don't you fall for somebody new
'Cause I'm saving my love for you
Kenny called me late last night
Hoping he could steal my heart away
I'll keep hanging up on him
All that I'm asking is you do the same
Save it, save it
Saving it just for you baby
[Incomprehensible] save it
[Incomprehensible] save it, save it
Save your love, my love save it just for me
Save it up, every drop till you're here with me
Save it all, don't you fall to my heart be true
'Cause I'm saving my love for you, yeah
Save your love, my love save it just for me
Save it up, every drop till you're here with me
Save it all, don't you fall for somebody new
'Cause I'm saving my love for you
Save your love, my love save it just for me
Save it up, every little drop till you're here with me
Save it all, don't you fall to my heart be true
'Cause I'm saving my love for you
Save your love, my love save it just for me
Save it up, every drop till you're here with me
Save it all, don't you fall for somebody new
'Cause I'm saving my love for you
Save your love, save it up
Save your love, save it up
Save your love, save it up
You've got to feel the same
To make our love remain
I'm lookin' for a sweeter love
It's clear to me
The only thing we need
Is to mix our lov into a recipe
Two scoops of sugar, baby
Sugar and spice, everything nice
Squash is defied, make up your mind
To find what the chef's been cookin'
Gimme that sugar baby, how sugar
Make it so sweet, make it unique
Change your physique, you know that you need to see
A sweeter kind of love's what we need
[Chorus:]
A sweeter love, a love that is sweeter
The sweeter the better for me
A sweeter love, a love that is sweet enough
To satisfy
My desire
To make our love supreme
For love to take us higher it seems
It's got to be a sweeter type of thing
I'll tell you boy exactly what I need-I need
[Chorus]
[Rap:]
Two scoops of sugar? What is the meaning?
What is the theory behind it that puts a girl and a boy in effect?
Creatin' a sweet love they can't forget
Turn up the oven and pump up the juice
Like a fire, sparks fly loose-like a criminal steals the diamnds he gives to her
But she'd rather have sugar!
[Bridge:]
As muxh as you like
If you try it you'll find
That your love can be sweeter
Whoever you are - it's the recipe for a sweeter love
Your love goes with me
It surrounds me everywhere that I go
No matter where you are
Your heart is here with me
I wanna tell you that I'm with you tonight
Though you're not here
I can see that lovely smile on your face
And feel the touch of you and know I'm missing you
I'll make it true one more day
Because of you, there is nothing I can't do
And each test life puts me through
I'll get by because of you, because of you
You make love easy
You take pleasure in each thing that I do
You give unselfishly
And the gift you gave is you
I'm gonna dedicate the rest of my life giving back to you
All the trust and faith that you've given me
I've learned so much from you to show my gratitude
I'll be the best for you I can be
Because of you, there is nothing I can't do
And each test life puts me through
I'll get by because of you
With you on my side, I am free to try and fly
Every mountain I can find
I have seen love at each day because of you
Because of you
Mama, I wanna thank you for all the wonderful things you do
For being there whenever I needed you
With the love that would last forever
And mama, I'm away from you now
But never, never in my heart
Because of you, there is nothing I can't do
And each test life puts me through
I'll get by because of you, because of you
When we 1st met, you stole my heart away
Your love was incredible, wonderful, then you began to change
You used 2 make me feel special, now all you do is make me cry
I gave you my everything, baby, but all you gave me was lies....
Chorus
I, I, tried 2 be the 1 4 for baby
You, you, neva wasn't nothin, what I
Do, do, that's why I'm leavin
'cause it's all about you and not about me
(repeat)
When we get in a fight, I'm always 1st 2 apologize
Even if it was you did wrong
I never do enough 2 please you, that's why I can't go on
No matter what I do 4 u, it's never any good 4 you
You always gotta complain, that's why I have 2 say
I can't stay!
Chorus
I, I
You, you (say you, you, you)
Do, do (what I do, what I do)
'cause it's all about you, and not about me
(your selfish baby, oh yeah, yeahaaaaaaaaa)
Anything you want I do
I never understand how you
Could treat me bad and be so cruel
You beggin me 2 come back 2 you
(?) you gave all my love, and what I had was not enough
You turned around and broke my trust
Got the nerve 2 ask me "what about us?"!!
Chorus (2x)
I have a song to sing, a song of love, a song of joy to bring
My songs of living my dreams that have all come true because of you
You know I sang for years, songs of pain through bitter tears
I was afraid and felt so alone because I had no one to call my own
Now, I've found a love in you, one that's pure and true
You're that someone I've been waiting for
And you, you know it from the start we'd always be a part of each other
Now, I pray we'll stay together
I have a song, a song of love, a song of joy, a song for you and me
You are the song I sing, I'd like to thank you, baby
I have a song to sing, coming from the heart of a brand new star
My songs of living my dreams, I'm not afraid anymore
You're what I'm living for
Now, I've found a friend in you, one that's pure and true
You're the one I've been waiting for
And you, you knew it from the start I'll be coming from my the heart
Now, I pray that we always stay together
A song of love, a song of joy, a song for you and me
You are the song I sing, yeah yeah
I have a song to sing, coming from the heart of a brand new star
My songs of living my dreams that have all come true because of you
I have a song to sing, a song of love, a song of you and me
[Prelude:]
Now I realize what I must do
When I started my quest, it was nothing more
Than just a dream
See, I believe in making statements
And setting examples with my music
Looking forward, and understanding what's ahead
Has given me the strength and courage,
For I am the rhythm child
Double O ryhtm is alive
[Intro:]
Da da da da double
Da da da da O
Da da da da rhythm
Da da da da double
Da da da da O
Da da da da rhythm
Da da da da double O rhythm (rhythm)
It's so good to be back in the picture (so good)
I've been away for far too long
And there's no time for rest
Cause I'm out there with the best
Now I have to give my all
[Chorus:]
Double O rhythm has come alive
Double O rhythm, double O, double O
Double O rhythm has come alive
Double O rhythm, double O, double O
I'm here and there is no doubt
That my rhythms soul creation's in effect
And I've changed my point of view
Can you feel the sensation of the rhythm inside of you
[Chorus]
Take, take, take, take, take, take me to a funky level
[Bridge:]
Can you feel the rhythm
Ah uh
I can
It's funky
Can you feel the ryhtym
Ah uh
I can
It's funky
Can you feel the rhythm
Ah uh
I can
It's funky
Oh, oh
Ha, ha
Can you feel it
Rhythm's soul creation
Can you feel it
I am the rhytm child
Can you feel it
Di dot dot dot
Swe dow yeah yeah
Can you feel it
I am the rhythm child
Can you...
Let double O rhythm become a part of you
Sittin? all alone, it?s a quarter to three
And I can?t sleep tonight, sleep tonight, oh no baby
On and on faint lovin? memories
And I?m just breakin? down, breakin? down
'Cause you?re not around
Seems like only yesterday
Since my baby went away
We could?ve lasted a lifetime
So tell me who?s to blame
Did you really have to lie to me? Did I really make you unhappy?
So unbelievable baby, how could you walk away from me?
Did you see the tears that I cried? Did you really mean to say goodbye?
I have a pain that burns so deep, so deep, I cannot breath baby
Time to close the door and mend this broken heart of mine
I?ll be movin? on, oh this love is long gone
It?s not a game that we should?ve played
This crowded room is an empty space but I?ll be okay
It?s alright, alright, alright baby
Seems like only yesterday
Since my baby went away
We could?ve lasted a lifetime
So tell me who?s to blame
Did you really have to lie to me? Did I really make you unhappy?
So unbelievable baby, how could you walk away from me?
Did you see the tears that I cried? Did you really mean to say goodbye?
I have a pain that burns so deep, so deep, I cannot breath baby
I hope in time you?ll find 'cause lovin?s all I tried
I?ve tried to give you all of me
So I set you free baby
See now I?m stronger so don?t be mad at me
Did you really have to lie to me? Did I really make you unhappy?
So unbelievable baby, how could you walk away from me?
Did you see the tears that I cried? Did you really mean to say goodbye?
I have a pain that burns so deep, so deep, I cannot breath baby
Did you really have to lie to me? Did I really make you unhappy?
So unbelievable baby, how could you walk away from me?
Did you see the tears that I cried? Did you really mean to say goodbye?
I have a pain that burns so deep, so deep, I cannot breath baby
Did you really have to lie to me? Did I really make you unhappy?
So unbelievable baby, how could you walk away from me?
Did you see the tears that I cried? Did you really mean to say goodbye?
I have a pain that burns so deep, so deep, I cannot breath baby
Oh, I just want you to know
No matter where you go
It doesn't matter 'cause you're still in my heart
Thinkin' of you brings tears to my eyes
Seems yesterday, we were planning our lives
I'm so confused, wonderin' why
How could you leave without sayin' goodbye
Picture your smile inside of my head
Still smell your cologne all over my bed
Miss you so much, I pray every night
That the angels are watching and treating you right
Oh, I just want you to know
No matter where you go
It doesn't matter 'cause you're still in my heart
I sing to myself, so nobody hears
There's just no escaping, the sounds of my tears
Miss you so much and every night
I can't get to sleep, it ain't right
Memories keep holding me down
There's just no fun when you're not around
Don't know what to do, now I'm faced with the truth
Somehow I thought that we would always be
Oh, I just want you to know
No matter where you go
It doesn't matter 'cause you're still in my heart
Oh, I just want you to know
No matter where you go
It doesn't matter 'cause you're still in my heart
Still in my heart, still in my heart
You're still in my heart
It doesn't matter 'cause you're still in my heart
You're still in my heart
You're still in my heart
You're still in my heart
It doesn't matter 'cause you're still in my heart
You're still in my heart
You're still in my heart
[Verse 1:]
I'm so confused
And I think I wanna cry
Tonight... want must I do baby
You don't no what you mean
Oh I
Tell me something
Tell me really something baby
Your so unpredictable
Why must you treat me... this way
I want you to love me
For me

[Pre chorus:]
What ever happen to the things we use to share
Where did our love go
Boy don't you even care
[Chorus:]
Tender kisses
Blown away
Tender kisses
Gone tomorrow gone today
Tender kisses
Bye baby bye baby
[Verse 2:]
Don't leave
Leave me here al alone

Ready to fall in love

Confused

Unpredictable
Trust in me
As I trust in you
Put our hearts together

[Bridge:]
I wonder is you ever loved me

Holdin' on to the memories
Of the way you use to kiss me
All I ever really wanted

All those tender kisses blown away

Tender kisses
Gone tomorrow gone today
Tender kisses
I want to thank you for the flowers
And the little notes that say I love you
Special phone calls every hour
Boy, I'm hooked on those little things
The little things you do
It was my soul intention to find a love
A love unmentioned
That's when I turned to you without a doubt
In my mind
You made the difference in my life
[Chorus:]
Baby you make the difference
It's just like day and night
Baby, you make the difference
You make it all seem right
It's your love I'll always treasure
I'll be there for you 'til the very end
We took our time and found forever
I'm so glad I found, I found a love and a friend
You took my hurt away
When you entered the world, my world please stay
I never dreamed love could be
Love so sweet with you here next to me
Makes it all complete
[Chorus]
Boy, having you in my life means everything
It's the joy we share together
And in my heart the love you give
Will always make the difference
Fifteen after nine
