Damn how am I gonna say this shit?
hey... hey dad, yeah it's your boy
remember me? I wanna talk to you scrap
I remember being kicked out the house
'cause I looked just like you
Said I'd be nothing but a crook
just like you
The niggaz in the hood was shook
Where the just like you
'Cause all they said was little whitey look
I'm just like you
But dog I can't see it at all, shit
We never kicked it at all
We never pitched or kicked at a ball
dog, you never taught me shit
how to fight, ride a bike, fix a flat
none of that sorts of shit
Nigga you was an abusive pops
fuck you left me out to dry, stuck
gotta teach news to box
gotta teach news to bop
and that aint the half of it man
I gotta teach news to block
It's about time we have a father to son (nigga sit down)
sit down let me tell you 'bout your fatherless sons
how they grew to be men and father they sons
father they daughters
nigga, you left a fatherless daughter
I never follow your orders
nigga you make me sick
pussy you could....ooh
how you gonna leave these memories in the back of my mind
I can see it clear as day you smackin my mom
I 'member that day you showed me that gat, that 9
put it in my palm when I was young
and said that would be mine, you turned me out
the reason why I hit the block
reason why I tried to hit them cops
reason why I started hittin shots
reason why I started gettin licked
and drinkin syrup and skippin court
ginger bread man never think of gettin caught
look at your hand man damn you fought
nigga you left my mom
left us with no good-bye's
you left us out to dry
you left us with no letters, notes, (nothing!) no replies
no digits numbers was unlisted
you left us with some of my loneliest night
nigga some of my hungriest nights
shit, one of the reasons for years (shit embarrasin)
damn we used to think money was white
yeah you gave us life like, fruit from a plant
we aint eat right from them foods from them stamps
and to think you was my pop,
man i gotta stop shit
Female: Daddy, Where Have You Been?
Beanie: And when you come home, you got us here all alone
Female: Mommy, Where Daddy Went?
Beanie: You always stick up for him
Always said you'd make up for him
Female: Mommy, What Happened Then?
Beanie: What was you cheatin on him?
Why he's always beatin' on you?
Female: Daddy, Where Have You Been?
Beanie: Nigga, you gonna hear me out
I wanted to walk just like him (remember?)
wanted to talk just like him (word)
often momma said I look too much
and I thought just like him (it could happen)
wanted to drink Miller nips
and smoke Newports just like you
but you left me, now I'm goin to court just like you
I would say "my daddy loves me and he'll never go away"
bullshit, do you even remember December's my birthday?
do you even remember the tender boy
you turned into a cold young man
with one goal and one plan
get mommy out of some jam, she was always in one
always short with the income
always late with the rent
You said that you was comin through
I would stay in the hallway (waitin)
always playin the bench (waitin)
and that day came and went
Fuck You! very much you showed me the worst kind of pain
but I'm stronger and trust me I will never hurt again
will never ask mommy "why daddy don't love me?
Why is we so poor?, why is life so ugly?
Mommy why is your eyes puffy?"
please don't cry everything'll be alright
I know it's dark now, but we gon' see the light
It's us against the world
we don't need him, right? (right)
mommy drivin 6's now (yeah), I got riches now (yeah)
I bought I nice home for both of my sisters now
we doin real good
we don't miss you now

You took the lot and there's only dirt
You took the bet and you lost my shirt
You walked my dog and you let it run away
You took yourself on a holiday
You said you needed to get away
Then I got a postcard from the room...
Here I must have known you
For so many years but
You always seemed to slip away...
(Where have you been?)
I'm been upon the sea
(Where have you been?)
Out on the Twilight Zone
(Where have you been?)
I've been to the other side
and it's good to be back home..
(Yeah yeah yeah)
Two potatoes you won't get far
You got some air and blew yourself away..
Here I must have known you
For so many years but
You always seemed to slip away...
(Where have you been?)
Laying upon the sea
(Where have you been?)
Out on the Twilight Zone
(Where have you been?)
I've been to the other side
and it's good to be back home..
(Yeah yeah yeah)
(Where have you been?)
I've been on a rocket ride
(Where have you been?)
I've been for a million miles
(Where have you been?)
I've been to the other side
and it's good to be back home..

You called me up last night in tears and said you missed me after all these years
Well I’ve been waiting here so long, I’ve gotten over it since you've been gone
You called me late last night again and said you're finished with your new boyfriend
Asked if you could come back home- so sorry that you left me all alone
You say you love me, love me again but if you love me- where have you been?
You say you need me more than anyone else well go to hell, where have you been?
You showed up at my door today and said my friend why do you push me away
Your life with him was just so dull but what we had was something wonderful
You say you love me, you love me again but if you love me- where have you been?
You say you need me more than anyone else well go to hell- where have you been?
No way! You wish! I don't need this! What makes you think I’d ever want you again?

Promise me you'll make me better
Promise me you're here for me
Can you love me for what I am
And love me for what I can be
Say you're nothing like them other girls
Girl you're nothing like them other girls
And for that I'll cry for you
And for that I'll die for you
I'm all fucked up now
It's all fucked up now
And I'm all destroyed
I needed you then
Where were you then, it's all your fault
But I'm glad you're here now
Hold me now, shit, I'm so lost
You took your time, I'm glad you're in my life
Now make this right
Now that we're together
I can curse you, I don't ask you what took you so long
Now that we're together
First I wanna say I love you
And secondly what kind shit you've been on
You mess around with them other girls
Knowing that them got nothing on me
I'm messing around with them girls
No they will never got nothing on you
But I'm glad that the sun finally shined my way
Ever since you came around I ain't even the same
Saved my life, and I owned it to ya baby
I'm all fucked up now
It's all fucked up now
I'm so destroyed
I needed you then
And where were you then, it's all your fault
You almost lost me
I almost lost you
Tell me what to do
All my life, here's your chance to make it right
Just when I thought my life was over
God sent you right me way
I needed a super woman to save me from this place
Follow me and never drop the bomb
That I would never find love, now that I found true love
I'm never giving it up
I'm all fucked up now
It's all fucked up now
And I'm all destroyed
I needed you then
Where were you then, it's all your fault
But I'm glad you're here now
Hold me now, shit, I'm so lost
You took your time, I'm glad you're in my life
Now make this right

Where've you Been By Kathy Mattea
Claire had all but given up
When she and Edwin fell in love
She touched his face, and shook her head
In disbelief, she sighed and said
"In many dreams, I've held you near.
Now at last you're really here.
CHORUS
"Where've you been?
I've looked for you forever and a day.
Where've you been?
I'm just not myself when you're away."
Verse
He asked her for her hand for life
And she became a salesman's wife
He was home each night by eight
But one stormy evening he was late
Her frightened tears fell to the floor
Until his key turned in the door
"Where've you been?
I've looked for you forever and a day.
Where've you been?
I'm just not myself when your away."
(Bridge)
They'd never spent a night apart
For sixty years she heard him snore
Now they're in a hospital
In separate beds, on different floors
Claire soon lost her memory
Forgot the names of family
She never spoke a word again
Then one day they wheeled him in
He held her hand and stroked her head
And in a fragile voice she said,
"Where've you been?
I've looked for you forever and a day.
Where've you been?
I'm just not myself when your away.

They call holidays an option for a reason
I heard you're coming back to life just for the fourth
I've been catching all your ghosts for every season
I pray to god you won't come back here anymore
do you pray with him, too?
They should deliver all my blessings
in small brown paper handbags near the porch
I wished I'd known that you were bleeding while I sat
and watched you reading with the lord
I read with him, too
when you look at me
I'll be digesting your legs
cause I can hardly see
what's in front of me these days
and those days, too.
I've got to take what I'm making
and turn it into something
I've got to take what I'm making
and turn it into something
for you
I've got to break what I'm making
and turn it into nothing
I've got to break what I'm making
and turn it into nothing
for you

You had to be hiding from me, all this time
Making me wait so very long, for you
Cause out of nowhere you just appeared before my eyes
Letting me know that there'd be no more lonely nights
Where have you been all of my life
What took me so long to get it right
Where have you been all of my life
(Tell me...)
How did you know when it was time, to make your move
And how did you know this heart of mine was this needing
Being with you helps me realize that dreams come true
Next time don't take your sweet old time
To bring your love to me, oh yeah
Where have you been all of my life
What took me so long to get it right
Where have you been all of my life
To be honest, it's not fair
That so much time went by before we had a chance to share
Our love, we should've been together
But it's better late than never
Where have you been all of my life
Baby
Where have you been all of my life
Tell me
Where have you been all of my life
What took me so long to get it right

WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?
performed by: Debbie Gibson
written by: Deborah Gibson
Verse 1:
Something's funny 'bout your touch lately
It's like you've been touching someone else
And the sound of your voice,
Well something's stopping you from being yourself
We've always been honest -
And painfully so -
So tell me though I don't want to hear
I have to ask you
Where have you been?
'Cause I think I know the answer
And it's not what I wanted to hear
Dear, where have you been?
I've been waiting up for you
I don't want to accuse but
Your eyes and mouth they tell a different story
I don't want to hear it but -
The truth -
Where have you been?
Oh-oh...
Verse 2:
I know it's easy to lose faith
We look simply for a change of pace
And I know my moods, they go up and down
But when you're climbing walls, don't I stick around?
You caught me
On some little white lies
It's you who taught me
About silent goodbyes
I have to ask you
Where have you been?
'Cause I think I know the answer
And it's isn't what I wanted to hear
Dear, where have you been?
I've been waiting up for you
I don't want to accuse but
Your eyes and mouth they tell a different story
I don't want to hear it -
But the truth -
Where have you been?
Bridge:
A silent cry fills the room
I hear it no sooner than the words ring true
I knew it all along
Please erase this song
End this harsh reality
What did you do to me? oh.....
Bop-bop-bop
Bop-bop-bop-bop
I have to ask you
Where have you been?
'Cause I think I know the answer
And it isn't what I wanted to hear
I've been waiting up for you
I have to ask you
Where have you been?
I think I know the answer
It's written all over your face
Oooo
No-no-no
No-no-no-no
I don't want to know - yeah
Your eyes and mouth they tell a different story
I don't want to hear it -
But the truth -
Where have you been?
I don't want to hear it - but tell me
Where have you been?
Oooo.....
No...
Bop -
Where have you been?
Where have you been?
Bop...

Well, hello, and where have you been
been looking for you for awhile
I wake in the morning, look at your pretty face
and all I can do is wonder why
why you sleep so contented next to me
why you seem to see the things you see in me
and why I’ve lost some of my need to be alone
and why, most of all, you love me
Well, now I’m caught in that most talked of trap
not knowing how to fly away
part of me is dying, as another grows so fast
Lord, I don’t know what to do
But I know that time will fly on by
and I know that I might lose sight of you
but now I know that I am caught within your trance
and I know that I love you
and so I spend every minute that I can with you
and so I sing my silly song to help me through

From the minute that you walked right through the door
Thoughts are racing in my mind, time to explore
I tell my friends that I just gotta have him
Don't look now, cause I see you staring at him
Tunnel vision had him locked on in my sight
On a mission, for position by the end of the night
It's like a pray, playin' games with the hunter
You better run boy, time to surrender
And all I need is to feel you
All I want is to feel you
CHORUS:
Reach out and touch me
Before I go insane
Reach out and touch me
Boy don't you make me wait
I'm a diamond and you're so on the money
Reach out and touch me
And all I need is to feel you
Reach out and touch me
Like a pray, your touch can take me there
Ain't no mind, you and me in a secret affair
Oh boy you're killing me and you don't even know it
Try to hold back but I can't control it
So, I'm steppin' to ya', skip the "How ya doin'?"
Grab your hand and pull you closer to me yeah
Out the door slippin', then we start to kissing
Boy you're invited to my fan-ta-ta-sy
And all I need is to feel you
All I want is to feel you
CHORUS:
Reach out and touch me
Before I go insane
Reach out and touch me
Boy don't you make me wait
I'm a diamond and you're so on the money
Reach out and touch me
Reach out and touch me
Reach out and touch me
I'm a diamond and you're so on the money
Reach out and touch me
All I want is to feel you
Reach out and touch me
Baby can't you see how you're affecting me
Baby sensual, physical, fantasy
Maybe, fate brought the two of close
Don't you wanna? Don't you wanna?
Don't you wanna? Don't you wanna?
Reach out and touch me
CHORUS:
Reach out and touch me
Before I go insane
Reach out and touch me
Boy don't you make me wait
I'm a diamond and you're so on the money
Reach out and touch me
Reach out and touch me
Reach out and touch me
I'm a diamond and you're so on the money
Reach out and touch me
And all I need is to feel you

Promise me you'll make me better
Promise me you're here for me
Can you love me for what I am
And love me for what I can be
Say you're nothing like them other girls
Girl you're nothing like them other girls
And for that I'll cry for you
And for that I'll die for you
I'm all fucked up now
It's all fucked up now
And I'm all destroyed
I needed you then
Where were you then, it's all your fault
But I'm glad you're here now
Hold me now, shit, I'm so lost
You took your time, I'm glad you're in my life
Now make this right
Now that we're together
I can curse you, I don't ask you what took you so long
Now that we're together
First I wanna say I love you
And secondly what kind shit you've been on
You mess around with them other girls
Knowing that them got nothing on me
I'm messing around with them girls
No they will never got nothing on you
But I'm glad that the sun finally shined my way

But I'm glad you're here now
Hold me now, shit, I'm so lost
You took your time, I'm glad you're in my life
Now make this right

If ever you love again, if such luck could be
You must fall in love again with nobody but me
For now that I see you
I know that we should have met long ago
Where have you been?
I wanna know where have you been?
My life was a loosing fight till the lucky night
Baby, you happened in
From what I had heard about love
I thought it was all sorrow and sin
But now that we meet at last, I forget what's past
Baby, where have you been?
I was a fool un-befriended
In the debts of despair
When out of the blue you descended
And somehow ended every care
So if you will give me a break
And all of the love seem to begin
So close to your side I'll stay, you will never say
"Baby, where have you been?"
I was a fool un-befriended
In the debts of despair
When out of the blue you descended
And somehow ended every care
So if you will give me a break
And all of the love seem to begin
So close to your side I'll stay, you will never say

I've been waiting all night for you
I've been waiting all night for you
Where the hell have you been?
Where the hell have you been?
I've been waiting all night for you
Me and the kids we're wondering
Where have you been
All night long
You take your things, your lies, your excuses
I packed your pride in a bag
Let me say yeah yeah yeah
You take your things, your lies, your excuses
I packed your pride in a oooooh, yeah yeah yeah
I sit on the floor
My feet are cold
My tears are dry
And my eyes are sore
I've been wasting my life with you
And I've been holding on to you
I don't know who I am anymore, anymore
You take your things, your lies, your excuses
I packed your pride in a bag
Let me say yeah yeah yeah
You take your things, your lies, your excuses
I packed your pride in a bag
Let me say yeah yeah yeah
You take your things, your lies, your excuses
I pack your pride in a bag, in a bag, in a bag
You take your things, your lies, your excuses
I packed your pride in a oooooh, yeah yeah
You take your things, your lies, your excuses
I packed your pride in a bag
Let me say yeah yeah yeah
You take your things, your lies, your excuses
I packed your pride in a bag

I packed your pride in a bag, in a bag, in a bag
You take your things, your lies, your excuses

My life's not the same without you in it

Right before my eyes right before I told you how i felt no i must thank you now
For the things you've done you helped me fight my demons like a mother to her son.
Whoa where have you been my life's not the same without you in it
Whoa forever I'll wait your live and affection is all that i crave
I long fir your kiss and your memory still remains.
My heavy heart you carried on your back and right before your eyes
I stood back up and picked up all the slack my love I have done my best to
hold my head up high ill never be the same without you in my life
