In Ancient Greece, a deme or demos (Greek: δῆμος) was a subdivision of Attica, the region of Greece surrounding Athens. Demes as simple subdivisions of land in the countryside seem to have existed in the 6th century BC and earlier, but did not acquire particular significance until the reforms of Cleisthenes in 508 BC. In those reforms, enrollment in the citizen-lists of a deme became the requirement for citizenship; prior to that time, citizenship had been based on membership in a phratry, or family group. At this same time, demes were established in the city of Athens itself, where they had not previously existed; in all, at the end of Cleisthenes' reforms, Attica was divided into 139 demes. The establishment of demes as the fundamental units of the state weakened the gene, or aristocratic family groups, that had dominated the phratries.
A deme functioned to some degree as a polis in miniature, and indeed some demes, such as Eleusis and Acharnae, were in fact significant towns. Each deme had a demarchos who supervised its affairs; various other civil, religious, and military functionaries existed in various demes. Demes held their own religious festivals and collected and spent revenue.

She competed in the national beauty contest of Miss Turkey on 1 April 2010, representing the National Capital, Ankara.

She also competed in a beauty competition for teenagers in Prague, Czech Republic, representing Turkey, and held the third runner-up title and "Special Award" by the jury.
Yeaa oooh oooh

I wanted to find something wrong
So i put you through it
And i made excuses
Tried to turn you away
I knew i was wrong
Cus when you went away
Something so strong
I didn't know until you were gone (oooh i didn't know)
Whisper sweet nothings in my ear
Tell me all the things that i long to hear (baby u gotta whisper)
Whisper sweet nothing in my ear
Let me know that you feel the way i do
Hearing your voice it took me back to the way it should be
Passions so strong it feels like i'm losing my mind
You gotta please forgive me
Yes so i tripped completely
What can you do
When love gets hold of you
Cus when you went away something so strong
And i didn't know until you were gone (ooh i didn't know)
Whisper sweet nothings in my ear
Tell me all the things that i long to hear (baby u gotta whisper)
Whisper sweet nothing in my ear
Let me know that you feel the way i do
Whoa whooa whooa whoa whooa
Oh babe i knew i was wrong

Baby you need to understand
These feelings so strong
Right by your side is where i belong
Ooh i'm on my way home
Whisper sweet nothings in my ear
Tell me all the things that i long to hear (baby u gotta whisper)
Baby you gotta whisper sweet nothings in my ear
With every passing moment
Thoughts of you run through my head
Every time that I'm near you
I realize that you're heaven sent, baby
I think you're truly something special
Just what my dreams are really made of
Let's stay together, you and me boy
There's no one like you around
Oh baby
I really like
What you've done to me
I can't really explain it
I'm so into you
I really like
What you've done to me
I can't really explain it
I'm so into you
It could be the way that you hold me
It could be the things that you say
(That you say)
Oh, I'm not too sure what it is boy
But I know I like feeling this way, hey
I think you're truly something special
Just what my dreams are really made of
Let's stay together, you and me boy
There's no one like you around
Oh baby
I really like
What you've done to me
I can't really explain it
I'm so into you
I really like what I feel when I'm with you
You're a dream come true
Don't you ever leave my side
'Cause it feels so right
I really like
What you've done to me
I can't really explain it
I'm so into you
I really like
I'm so into you
I'm so into you
Oh, I'm so into you
She cant do what I do to you,
I know she can't love you the way I love you.
Right here looking in your eyes,
Thinking about what we did last night,
& How you suddenly blew my mind,
Your touch to your tender kiss couldn't take you breathing in my ear,
Just being with you made me realise.
& Everytime I see you baby I fall in love over again,
So proud that you are my man,
& I still can't, can't get you outta my head,
Your all I've ever wanted and you just gotta know that...
She cant do the things I do to you,
No one is loving you the way, the way I love you,
She can't be everything you need and what you need is me,
Coz its the way I love you.
The way that I love you,
Love you the way I do,
The way, the way, the way I love you.
When you smile my mind goes spare,
Can't imagine live without you here,
Someway somehow you've completed me,
Thank god you came my way,
What we have came to replace,
You make it easy to be in love.
& Everytime I see you baby I fall in love over again,
So proud that you are my man,
& I still cant cant get you outta my head,
Your all I've ever wanted and you just gotta know that...
She cant do the things I do to you, (She can't)
No one is loving you the way the way I love you,
She can't be (no baby) everything (every little thing baby) you need and what you need is me,
Coz its the way I love you.
The way that I love you,
Love you the way I do,
The way, the way, the way I love you.
Don't waste your time baby,
You know that your mine baby,
She can't satisfy the way that I do
She can't love you like I do.
She cant do the things I do to you,
No one is loving you the way the way I love you,
She can't be (she can never be baby) everything you need (coz she knows that you need me)
and what you need is me, (she can't do what I do)
Coz its the way I love you (it's the way that i love you)
She cant do (oooo) the things I do to you (please listen to me)
No one is loving you the way the way I love you, (the way i love you)
She can't be everything you need and what you (you baby) need is me,
Coz its the way I love you.
The way that I love you,
Love you the way I do,
The way, the way, the way I love you.
The way that I love you,
Love you the way I do,
There you were in a crowded room
With someone at least I assumed
How did I know I would fall in love
With you so soon
Just one look in your eyes and I see the truth
And I try hard to hide that I'm made for you
But I know deep inside things that we could do
Just as long as we're together, but
But who do you tell when you love someone
Hoping that someone's in love with you
Who do you tell when you love someone
I think I might as well tell you
I can't believe that I feel this way
There is so much I want to say
I wanna touch you, hold you, feel you, please you
As we're making love all through the night
We would talk to each other, we would laugh and play
We would claim it's forever every night and day
We would share every minute 'til the test of time
In my mind, in my mind baby, ohh
Who do you tell when you love someone
Hoping that someone's in love with you
Who do you tell when you love someone
I think I might as well tell you
Who do you tell when you love someone
Hoping that someone's in love with you
Who do you tell when you love someone
I think I might as well tell you
I've hesitated much too many times
And I won't let you to slip away from me, no
I know you're for me and me for you
But I don't know what to say or to do
So now that we're together I'm telling you
Who do you tell when you love someone
Hoping that someone's in love with you
Who do you tell when you love someone
I think I might as well tell you
Whooo!

Whoo!, Darkchild, Here's another one, and another one!
I built a wall
Out of this heart of mine
Never letting no one in
Didn't think I need a friend
Until now, feeling this way won't do
I'm ready to give all of me
the question that I have will be
Will he say the things he needs to say?
Or touch me in a certain way?
I told myself just to be strong
One day the man will come along, so
What will I do?
Where will I go?
When it's my turn
How will I know that you're the man
I'm dreaming of?
I hope this time it's love
[Repeat]
Now you've opened up this heart of mine
You made me feel like no one else
Showed me there's someone besides myself
That I can depend on
Looking back I finally see
Exactly what you mean to me
You touched me in that special way
Said all the things a man should say
I kept my faith and I just stayed strong
My man finally came along
What will I do?
Where will I go? (where do I go?)
When it's my turn (when it's my turn)
How will I know (how will I know)
that you're the man I'm dreaming of?
I hope this time it's love
What will I do?
Where will I go?
When it's my turn
How will I know that you're the man
I'm dreaming of?
I hope, I hope this time its love
Every single day with you
My love grows deeper and stronger its true
'Cause you've shown me things I've never known
You gave me strength to carry on
'Cause sometimes I'm afraid to let you in
Even though I know you're a good man
Still thoughts of doubt run through my mind
There's questions I have so tell me what to do
What will I do?
Where will I go?
When it's my turn
How will I know that you're the man
I'm dreaming of?
I hope this time it's love
could i be falling for you
is this a fantasy come true
is this a dream that i waited for
am i the one that you adore
oh-oo-oh-oh i think i'm falling for you
oh-oo-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh what am i supposed to do
cause you make me feel like i'm falling in love
am i falling for you
could it be love tell me boy is it true
i get a rush when i think about you
lose control of my body and my soul
and when you hold me i don't wanna let go
you give me reason every reason just to love you babe
everything that you do is so amazing
i can't believe what your body makes me wanna do
i'm having visions of me all over you
you must've known though i tried to disguise
the way i feel was there fire in my eyes
on that night when our bodies intertwined
knew right then and there that you would be mine
everyday you seem to find a way
to make me go crazy
i just can't understand
but let me tell you one thing
I look in the mirror, with you in my arms
And I see a reflection
Of a smile that says you believe in love
And just for a moment, I drifted away
But I couldn't stay cuz
A hint of love, a bit of fear
I'm tryin' to say
If I were you, I wouldn't be here
If I were you I would stay right where you are
I wouldn't come near this broken heart
Just turn around and leave here
And find someone who won't hurt you
Make sure that she still believes in love
Cuz I think my heart has given up
If I were you, I wouldn't be here
Ooh yeah
I'm tryin' to protect you
From the lies that your heart tells
Even though it says that you love me
All I see is pain and misery
Seasons may change
But I can't forget the days of old
My heart ached when you walked away
I said I'd never love again
If I were you, I wouldn't be here
If I were you I would stay right where you are
I wouldn't come near this broken heart
Just turn around and leave here
And find someone who won't hurt you
Make sure that she still believes in love
Cuz I think my heart has given up
If I were you, I wouldn't be here
The days go by
And I feel that you could make me happy
Time goes on
And I feel that love is at my door
And though I tell myself that you're the one
Who said those words before
Thought it hurts too much
I can't trust in love
Again
Again
If I were you, I wouldn't be here
If I were you I would stay right where you are
I wouldn't come near this broken heart
Just turn around and leave here
And find someone who won't hurt you
Make sure that she still believes in love
Cuz my heart has given up
If I were you, I wouldn't be here
If I were you I would stay right where you are
I wouldn't come near this broken heart
Just turn around and leave here
And find someone who won't hurt you
Make sure that she still believes in love
If I were you, I wouldn't be here
If I were you I would stay right where you are
I wouldn't come near this broken heart
Just turn around and leave here
And find someone who won't hurt you
Make sure that she still believes in love
My heart has given up
Can't be here
If I were you, I wouldn't be here
If I were you I would stay right where you are
Cuz my heart has given up
If I were you, I wouldn't be here
I wouldn't, if I were you
I wouldn't be here

I don't need another long talk
About what's wrong with you and me
And I don't need another conversation
'Bout the way we're supposed to be
Now I see that you're gone
And I don't believe that everything
I have to get over you
How could you make me love you
And then just walk away?
Like you never did a thing
To lead me on in any kind of way
And how could you make me feel
Do helpless everyday?
From the path you laid before me
These are things I collected along the way
I get tears in my ears sometimes
And I got a bad case of sleep last night
And I got holding you on my mind
And I try to think of way's, I can get you back all the time
Oh baby, that's a lot of weight to carry everyday
But these are things I collected along the way
Everytime I think about it
I hate it in every way
Said I thought I couldn't live without you
But I live with it everyday
Never thought I'd see the day
That you would ever leave
But now I'm here sifting through memories
How could you make me love you
And then just walk away?
Like you never did a thing
To lead me on in any kind of way
And how could you make me feel
Do helpless everyday?
From the path you laid before me
These are things I collected along the way
I get tears in my ears sometimes
And I got a bad case of sleep last night
And I got holding you on my mind
And I try to think of way's, I can get you back all the time
Oh baby, that's a lot of weight to carry everyday
All the things I collected along the way
I get tears in my ears sometimes
And I got a bad case of sleep last night
And I got holding you on my mind
And I try to think of way's, I can get you back all the time
Oh baby, that's a lot of weight to carry everyday
Collected along the way
I get tears in my ears sometimes
And I got a bad case of sleep last night
And I got holding you on my mind
And I try to think of way's, I can get you back all the time
Oh baby, that's a lot of weight to carry everyday
All the things I collected along the way
I get tears in my ears sometimes
And I got a bad case of sleep last night
And I got holding you on my mind
And I try to think of way's, I can get you back all the time
Oh baby, that's a lot of weight to carry everyday
Collected along the way
I get tears in my ears sometimes
And I got a bad case of sleep last night
And I got holding you on my mind
And I try to think of way's, I can get you back all the time
Oh baby, that's a lot of weight to carry everyday
These things I collected along my journey

Why do birds suddenly appear
Every time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
Why do stars fall down from the sky
Every time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
On the day that you were born
and the angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust
in your hair
And starlight in your eyes
Like they do
That is why all the guys in town
Follow you all around
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
If only for a minute
I€™d settle for an hour
And if you could stay just for one day
That would make me so happy happy baby
See it won€™t hurt to give our love a try
Girl don€™t u pass me by
Cuz I€™m that kind of guy
Who€™s going to love and treat you like a queen
That is why all the girls in town
Follow you all around
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
(i can feel it whenever,
we touchin' whenever,
we talkin' wherever we want)
Come a little closer baby
Lay your head up on my shoulder baby
Boy you know I cant deny it
You done already set my soul on fire
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
Wait a minute
There's something on my mind
I can't hold in any longer
Turn around
Don't just turn the radio down
I don't wanna hear "oh, uh, oh, uh, oh, uh"
No, no, no (uh uh uh uh uh uh)
Wait a minute
There's something I wanna say
Tell me who joined us in the bed last night
Don't look at me crazy, it did not feel right
A little to drink, but had a lot to say
Tell me who it was, tell me who it was
Whoever she was, she was on your mind
You stuttered a name that didn't sound like mine
Your silence right now will jeopardize you and I
Tell me who it was, oh tell me who it was
Tell me who joined us in the bed last night
Don't look at me crazy, it did not feel right
A little to drink, but had a lot to say
Tell me who it was, tell me who it was
Whoever she was, she was on your mind
You stuttered a name that didn't sound like mine
Your silence right now will jeopardize you and I
Tell me who it was, oh tell me who it was
You left home early
And you came home late (again)
I know there's something goin' on
Tell me what it is
What does she have that I don't?
Don't try to even lie
I just wanna know the truth
Last night while you were in my bed
You brought Cathy, Tracy, Trina home with you
Tell me
Tell me who joined us in the bed last night
Don't look at me crazy, it did not feel right
A little to drink, but had a lot to say
Tell me who it was, tell me who it was
Whoever she was, she was on your mind
You stuttered a name that didn't sound like mine
Your silence right now will jeopardize you and I
Tell me who it was, oh tell me who it was
(I'll tell ya how I knew)
I could feel it in your touch
Ain't lovin' good enough, no
(Baby who's foolin' who?)
You come home tired all the time
And you don't let me get mine, no
(Now before I say we're through)
She played you for a fool
She can't love you like I do
You can say what you want to
But last night you brought someone home with you
Tell me
Tell me who joined us in the bed last night
Don't look at me crazy, it did not feel right
A little to drink, but had a lot to say
Tell me who it was, tell me who it was
Whoever she was, she was on your mind
You stuttered a name that didn't sound like mine
Your silence right now will jeopardize you and I
Tell me who it was, oh tell me who it was
Hmm...
Ooh...ooh...
All I hear is raindrops falling on the rooftop
Oh baby, tell me whyd you have to go
Cause this pain I feel it wont go away
And today Im officially missin you
Abducted from this heartache, I could escape
But Ive heard it long enough to know
There aint no way
And today Im officially missing you
Ooh...cant nobody do it like you
Said every little thing you do, hey, baby
Sid it stays on my mind
And I-Im officially
All I do is lay around, 2 years full of tears
From looking at your face all over
Just a week ago you were my baby
Now I dont even know you at all, I dont know you at
all
Well, I wish that you would call me right now
So that I could get through to you somehow
But I guess its safe to say, baby
Safe to say that I-Im officially missin you
Ooh...cant nobody do it like you
Said every little thing you do, hey, baby
Said it stays on my mind
And I-Im officially
Well, I thought I could just get over you, baby
But I see theres something I just cant do
From the way you would hold me
To the sweet things you told me
I just cant find a way to let no one through
Ooh...cant nobody do it like you
Said every little thing you do, hey, baby
Said it stays on my mind
And I-Im officially
Its official
Hoo, you know that Im missin you, yeah, yes
All I hear is raindrops, oh, yeah
And Im officially missin you
Jesus said here I stand
Won't you please let me in
And you said I will
But tomorrow
Jesus said I am he
Who supplies all your needs
And you said I know
But tomorrow
Tomorrow,
I'll give my life
Tommorow,
I thought about today
But, it's so much easier to say
Tomorrow,
Who promised you,
Tomorrow,
Better choose the lord today
For tomorrow very well might be today
Jesus said here I stand
Won't you please take my hand
And you said I will
But tomorrow
Jesus said I am he
Who supplies all your needs
And you said I know
But tomorrow
OOOOOOOOOOO
Tomorrow,
I'll give my life
Tommorow,
I thought about today
OOOOOOOOOOO
But, it's so much easier to say
Tomorrow,
Who promised you,
Tomorrow,
Better choose the lord today
For tomorrow very well might be today
And you said, your tomorrow would ever come for you...
Still you laughed and played and continued on to say......
Tomorrow.... forget about....
Tomorrow
Won't you give your life today
OOOOOOOOOOOO
PLEASE
Don't just turn and walk away
Tomorrow, tomorrow is not promised
Don't let this moment slip away
WHOOOOOO
[Talib Kweli]
Everytime I walk up in the spot the corks pop
Got the floor hot, we goin' to rock until 4 o' clock
We used to keep a trick up my sleeve to get a chick to leave
Now we've got another one of them calling me
All eyes on you when you walk by
Your guy is doing stunts like the four guys
I know you make me feel like a six million dollar star tonight
The type to make every nigga holla
[Tamia]
All I hear is raindrops
Falling on the rooftop
Ooh baby tell me why'd you have to go
Cause this pain I feel
It won't go away
And today I'm officially missing you
I thought that from this heartache
I could escape
But I fronted long enough to know
There ain't no way
And today
I'm officially missing you
[Chorus]
Ooh can't nobody do it like you
Said every little thing you do
Hey baby say it stays on my mind
And I, I'm officially
[Tamia]
All I do is lay around
Two ears full tears
From looking at your face on the wall
Just a week ago you were my baby
Now I don't even know you at all
I don't know you at all
Well I wish that you would call me right now
So that I could get through to you somehow
But I guess it's safe to say baby safe to say
That I'm officially missing you
[Talib Kweli]
My baby is giving me the proper dance
Cause you know I'm the man
And these type of cats play the game of chance
Come close enough to show you how we 'suppose to love
You know they say we can't smoke in the club
But I'm cool cause your love is like a potion, a drug
These emotions got me open like buds
Roast, club boasts and I'm headed home with you
You know when you're going, I'm going to miss you
It's so official
[Tamia]
Well I thought I could just get over you baby
But I see that's something I just can't do
From the way you would hold me
To the sweet things you told me
I just can't find a way
To let go of you
[Chorus]
[Tamia]
It official
You know that I'm missing you
Yeah yes
All I hear is raindrops
And I'm officially missing you
What happened to the roses
And the little phone calls we made throughout the day
And the silly little games we played
But somehow things have changed
How i miss the old
Got me feelings throwed
We're barely holdin on
Why cant we
You and me
Be happy
Why cant we just be so happy
Why cant we just chill and be happy
Why cant we just be so happy
The argument
Seems to win over lovin
Used to be huggin
Kissin and rubbin
Now everyday is something new
Seperating me and you
I thought that we could get through anything
Why cant we
You and me
Be happy
Why cant we just be so happy
Why cant we just chill and be happy
Why cant we just be so happy
Baby
Lets start over again, and
Get back to being friends, and
Lets try harder this time
Whoah baby tell me
Why cant we
You and me
Be happy
Why cant we just be so happy
Why cant we just chill and be happy
Why cant we just be so happy
Why cant we
You and me
Be happy
Why cant we just be so happy
Why cant we just chill and be happy
Tell me when I can open my eyes
I don't want to watch you walk out that door
There's no easy way to get through goodbye
I'd probably try and talk you into staying once more
Or I'd lie and say it's all for the best
Wish you luck and say I have no regrets
But I'm not up to being strong
So I'll wait until you're gone
Is it over yet, is it over yet?
A taxi's waiting in the driveway for you
You call my name, I guess your ready to leave
I'd like to help you with a suitcase or two
But I'm afraid I'm gonna wind up down on my knees
I should tell you that I want you to go
I really need to spend some time on my own
Smile and say goodbye
So you don't see me dying inside
Is it over yet, is it over yet?
I should lie and say it's all for the best
Wish you luck and say I have no regrets
But I'm not up to being strong
So I'll wait until your gone
I don't know just who you are
There's a stranger in my house
Took a while to figure out
There's no way you could be
Who you say you are
You gotta be someone else
'Cause he wouldn't touch me like that
And he wouldn't treat me like you do
He would adore me
He wouldn't ignore me
So I'm convinced
I sat outside your house today
Just thinkin' you'll never learn
It's like the time I packed your things
And dropped 'em off where you were
I know you love to wash your car
So I left it in the lake
They say the strongest part of love is called hate
(Do you feel like I should)
Sit around with your touch
And your smell on my couch
And your hair in my brush
I loved you too much
(Do you think that I should)
Move along, change my phone
Get it on, I'll be gone
Treat him wrong 'til the day
That someone loves me the same way
How am I supposed to feel?
What exactly should I do?
I know you're no good for me
Yet and still I'm lovin' you
I'm must cite these lonely nights
Beggin' you to do me right
This time I just don't know
Heart says stay, mind says go
I knew I heard it in your voice
Something was wrong with our date
I feel I didn't have the choice
My heart was not in the way
Found out that I'm up in the cut
Some chick was wearing my face
You're lucky I'm in a good mood
Or she'll lay
Do you know how it feels
Sittin' 'round, smellin' sheets
Feelin' down, watchin' Heat
But my friends where you been
I'm with her again
Do you think that it's cool
To rock the fool in my house
I put you out, you come back in
We fight again, nobody wins
And baby, you should know that this is it
How am I supposed to feel?
What exactly should I do?
I know you're no good for me
Yet and still I'm lovin' you
I'm must cite these lonely nights
Beggin' you to do me right
This time I just don't know
Heart says stay, mind says go
How am I supposed to feel?
What exactly should I do?
I know you're no good for me
Yet and still I'm lovin' you
I'm must cite these lonely nights
Beggin' you to do me right
This time I just don't know
Heart says stay, mind says go
Oh oh oh oh
Hey, ooh, yeah
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Sometimes you can't let go
Even when your heart says so
I have to let you see
Your love will never be
?? with me you see
Can't let you, just don't need
I tried to love you still
I now know how it feels
How am I supposed to feel?
What exactly should I do?
I know you're no good for me
Yet and still I'm lovin' you
I'm must cite these lonely nights
Beggin' you to do me right
This time I just don't know
Heart says stay, mind says go
How am I supposed to feel?
What exactly should I do?
I know you're no good for me
Yet and still I'm lovin' you
I'm must cite these lonely nights
Beggin' you to do me right
This time I just don't know
Heart says stay, mind says go
How am I supposed to feel?
(It says go, go, go)
I know you're no good for me)
(Go go, go go)
I must cite these lonely nights
(Beggin' you to do me right)
This time I just don't know
Heart says stay, mind says go
How am I supposed to feel?
What exactly should I do?
I know you're no good for me
Yet and still I'm lovin' you
I'm must cite these lonely nights
Beggin' you to do me right
This time I just don't know
Wait a minute
There's something on my mind
I can't hold in any longer
Turn around
Don't just turn the radio down
I don't wanna hear "oh, uh, oh, uh, oh, uh"
No, no, no (uh uh uh uh uh uh)
Wait a minute
There's something I wanna say
Tell me who joined us in the bed last night
Don't look at me crazy, it did not feel right
A little to drink, but had a lot to say
Tell me who it was, tell me who it was
Whoever she was, she was on your mind
You stuttered a name that didn't sound like mine
Your silence right now will jeopardize you and I
Tell me who it was, oh tell me who it was
Tell me who joined us in the bed last night
Don't look at me crazy, it did not feel right
A little to drink, but had a lot to say
Tell me who it was, tell me who it was
Whoever she was, she was on your mind
You stuttered a name that didn't sound like mine
Your silence right now will jeopardize you and I
Tell me who it was, oh tell me who it was
You left home early
And you came home late (again)
I know there's something goin' on
Tell me what it is
What does she have that I don't?
Don't try to even lie
I just wanna know the truth
Last night while you were in my bed
You brought Cathy, Tracy, Trina home with you
Tell me
Tell me who joined us in the bed last night
Don't look at me crazy, it did not feel right
A little to drink, but had a lot to say
Tell me who it was, tell me who it was
Whoever she was, she was on your mind
You stuttered a name that didn't sound like mine
Your silence right now will jeopardize you and I
Tell me who it was, oh tell me who it was
(I'll tell ya how I knew)
I could feel it in your touch
Ain't lovin' good enough, no
(Baby who's foolin' who?)
You come home tired all the time
And you don't let me get mine, no
(Now before I say we're through)
She played you for a fool
She can't love you like I do
You can say what you want to
But last night you brought someone home with you
Tell me
Tell me who joined us in the bed last night
Don't look at me crazy, it did not feel right
A little to drink, but had a lot to say
Tell me who it was, tell me who it was
Whoever she was, she was on your mind
You stuttered a name that didn't sound like mine
Your silence right now will jeopardize you and I

[Talib Kweli]
Everytime I walk up in the spot the corks pop
Got the floor hot, we goin' to rock until 4 o' clock
We used to keep a trick up my sleeve to get a chick to leave
Now we've got another one of them calling me
All eyes on you when you walk by
Your guy is doing stunts like the four guys
I know you make me feel like a six million dollar star tonight
The type to make every nigga holla
[Tamia]
All I hear is raindrops
Falling on the rooftop
Ooh baby tell me why'd you have to go
Cause this pain I feel
It won't go away
And today I'm officially missing you
I thought that from this heartache
I could escape
But I fronted long enough to know
There ain't no way
And today
I'm officially missing you
[Chorus]
Ooh can't nobody do it like you
Said every little thing you do
Hey baby say it stays on my mind
And I, I'm officially
[Tamia]
All I do is lay around
Two ears full tears
From looking at your face on the wall
Just a week ago you were my baby
Now I don't even know you at all
I don't know you at all
Well I wish that you would call me right now
So that I could get through to you somehow
But I guess it's safe to say baby safe to say
That I'm officially missing you

My baby is giving me the proper dance
Cause you know I'm the man
And these type of cats play the game of chance
Come close enough to show you how we 'suppose to love
You know they say we can't smoke in the club
But I'm cool cause your love is like a potion, a drug
These emotions got me open like buds
Roast, club boasts and I'm headed home with you
You know when you're going, I'm going to miss you
It's so official
[Tamia]
Well I thought I could just get over you baby
But I see that's something I just can't do
From the way you would hold me
To the sweet things you told me
I just can't find a way
To let go of you
[Chorus]
[Tamia]
It official
You know that I'm missing you
Yeah yes
All I hear is raindrops
And I'm officially missing you
(Tamia)
Here we are right now, my baby.
Saw you standing in the crowd, just waitin',
For me to call you out, and take this, to another level... baby.
I feel it comin' on, I'm anxious,
It's really catchin' on, contagious.
Our eyes are having conversations,
And I'm starting to lose my patience.
Mr. Cool... (Hey baby)
I'm open on, everything you do.(everything you do)
I wanna know, is this cool?(I'm saying I)
I'm sayin' I like the way you move.
I wanna know... Mr. Cool...
(Mario Winans)
Hey baby...
I've been tryin' to get it trough, my lady.
And you know I want to go quit playin',
I'm trippin' on how long it's takin'...
I want to get to know, you better,
There's so much we can do, together baby.
Girl don't make me wait, forever.
I'm feelin' like it's now or never... baby...
(Together)
Mr. Cool... (My lady)
I'm open on, everything you do. (And I'm feelin you)
I wanna know, is this cool? (My baby, ow yes it is)
I'm sayin' I like the way you move. (And I like you too...)
I wanna know... Mr. Cool...
(Tamia)
If you open up to me,
Baby then you will recive,
Everything you'll ever need,
Do you know what this could mean?
You should listen to your heart,
Here and now is where it starts,
Baby come and talk to me,
I wanna know...yeah
Mr. Cool...
I'm open on, everything you do.
I wanna know, is this cool?
I'm sayin' I like the way you move.
I wanna know... Mr. Cool...

I wanna know, is this cool?
I'm sayin' I like the way you move.
I wanna know... Mr. Cool...
See, ya'll wanna dance? Yeah yeah
'Cuz I'mma make you dance
All I want is for you to use your imagination
Come on, come on, come on, come on
What makes us do the things we do
That keeps me lovin' you, imagination
And when you're in need, ain't got nobody
Imagination sets you free, free
Everything you want is real close when you close your eyes
And the things you think about the most they come to life, come to life
When your relationship is headed for the rocks
Gotta use your imagination to get you back on top
What makes us do the things we do
That keeps me lovin' you, imagination
And when you're in need, ain't got nobody
Imagination sets you free, free
It's the place you look when you want to have some fun
When you see it, say it, before it's done
Imagine you and me, and how it would feel
Exploring new ideas and what's gon' keep this lovin' real
When you get lonely, lonely
It'll make you get to a phone and
Tell me how much you want me
And when you have a bad day
A little bit of imagination goes a long way
Oh, true buff playa, that's the Chichi
Wanna get up out the store, you need to see me
Now I got you wondering what's behind the slouch
If you get too close will you get turned out
No doubt, it won't be the same if I hit it
'Cuz you always gon' want it the way I did it
I'mma keep you fresh, make sure you stay kitted
See once I got it, can't nobody else get it
From the bottom to the top 'til you say stop
You and me, wit the freaky south, I'mma gray drop
I'll kiss everything, I don't miss a spot
Stuff you ain't never seen from the man you got
I ain't hatin', my imagination's just more advanced
So when you wanna dance, I'mma make you dance
Tamia, I see ya, I'm still waiting, you make me wanna
Leave that to your imagination, yeah, yeah
What makes us do the things we do
That keeps me lovin' you, imagination
And when you're in need, ain't got nobody
Imagination sets you free, free
What makes us do the things we do
That keeps me lovin' you, imagination
And when you're in need, ain't got nobody
Imagination sets you free, free
What makes us do the things we do
That keeps me lovin' you, imagination
And when you're in need, ain't got nobody
Verse:
Every now and then
I seem to get this funny feelin'
When it comes to me and you
Can't say how or when
But your love keeps takin' over
And I don't know what to do
B-sec:
Well, I think that you oughta let me know what
What you're gonna do
'Cause time's wasting, baby much too fast and
I need to know if it's true
(So baby let me know)
Hook:
Baby, let me know if you want me
I really wanna know if you want me
And baby, if you don't tell me something
I gotta move on
'Cause everybody needs a little lovin'
And you're the only one that I wanna be with
I'm sorry if you don't tell me something
But I gotta move on
Verse:
Baby, understand
I need more than conversation,
I need action from a man
'Cause I'll do all I can
To keep our love from going under
Now it's time you take a stand
B-sec:
Well, I think that you oughta let me know what
What you're gonna do
'Cause time's wasting, baby much too fast and
I need to know if it's true

Tell me that you like it
Oh yeah, yeah
(Woo, let's see if you remember this one)
Do I?!
Oh, now I have to go there
Oohh
Mmm yeah
Let me show you just how much I know this record
You know you had me
With your sensuous charm
You looked so alarmed
As I walked on by
And oh some wonder
You had to know why I did not respond
To carry on
Love me in a special way
What more can I say?
Love me now
Love me in a special way
What more can I say?
Love me now
Love me now
Cuz I'm special
Not the average kind
Who'd accept any line
That sounds good
So reach into your chain of thoughts
Try to find something new
What worked so well for you before
For me, it just won't do, no
Love me in a special way
What more can I say?
Love me now
Love me in a special way

Love me now
Love me in a special way
Love me everyday
What more can I say?
Baby you should know that,
I've been afraid to try.
I'm healing from some things and
My tears are pale and dry.
I said "I'm through with love"
You made it all a lie.
You turned my never ever
Into one more time
If I happen to fall (I feel it coming on)
In love (Think I could fall in love)
Please protect my heart
Happen to fall (Been through so many things)
In love (I'm tired of fragile, baby)
please protect my heart
Baby you should know that,
I like what's going on.
The way you make me feel,
I've seen this all before.
You are incredible,
I can't deny that, no.
Could be my everything but,
Baby don't break my heart
If I happen to fall (I feel it coming on)
In love (Think I could fall in love)
Please protect my heart.
Happen to fall (Been through so many things)
In love (I'm tired of fragile, baby)
Please protect my heart
Deep in my heart I believe that,
You really care for me.
I pray that this time,
Love lasts eternally
If I happen to fall (I feel it coming on)
In love (Think I could fall in love)
Please protect my heart
Happen to fall (Been through so many things)
In love (I'm tired of fragile, baby)
Babygirl (I’ll really like)
Desert Storm (yeah)
I can’t really explain it
I’m so into you now
I wanna be more than a friend to you now
When they ask, I mention my babygirl in the interviews now
And I don’t bring the problems from the 90s and the 2 thou
Theres no reason to have a friend or two now
Cuz the kids ready to tell you how he feel and a few vows
Maybe I speak in general now
But girl, imma do whatever just to keep a grin on u now
Where I roll, they wear bikinis in the winter too now
What you think about tan lines on the skin of you now?
Why wouldn’t I wanna spend a few thou
On fifth ave, shopping sprees and them dinners to chow
I aint concerned with other men with you now
As long as when I slide up in you, you growl
And any dude with you, he better be a kin to you now
And I aint jealous, it’s the principle now
I’m so into you
I really like what you’ve done to me
I can’t really explain it
I’m so into you
I really like what you’ve done to me
I can’t really explain it
I’m so into you
Come on ma
It’s more than a flashing
I woulda traded it all in orderly fashion
My villa in Florida we crashing
Just off the shore so you can hear when the water be splashing
The Drop top 3 in the quota we dashing
Flawless diamonds in the water we flashing
The money we oughta be stashing
I make sure ever quarter be cashed in
I can’t really explain it
My friends be thinking I’m slipping
These girls be thinking I’m tripping
What kinda weed u be smoking
What typa drinks u be sipping
Sweet thing just to think of you dipping
Would have me with the blue so hard
You would think I was cripping
Now you relaxing in the Benz
Credit cards are no limits
So u don’t worry about maxing when u spends
But since u been asking about the friends
How’d u like it if both our names had Jackson on the ends
I really like what you’ve done to me
I can’t really explain it
I’m so into you
I really like what you’ve done to me
I can’t really explain it
I’m so into you
I don’t wanna trip, but the truth is
Girl the way you cook a stake
Remind me of the strips to Ruth chris
U love my smile, no matter how chipped my tooth is
With you it aint because my whips is ruthless
So sit on chrome, dip the deuces
And you aint flattered by Canary’s and VS dip tay seuces
All the ballers look dumb when they press you
Five and sixes, you don’t let them kinda #’s impress you
Even though I was so unsuccessful
Being a player was becoming too stressful
But ever since, this superwoman has come to my rescue
My winter’s been wonderful, my summer’s been special
That’s why the same bar while the villa been painted
Just so we can really get acquainted
The love is real, there’s no way you can feel like it’s tainted
But I can’t really explain it, yeah
I really like what you’ve done to me
I can’t really explain it
I’m so into you
I really like what you’ve done to me
I can’t really explain it
I’m so into you
I really like what you’ve done to me
I can’t really explain it
I’m so into you
I really like what you’ve done to me
I can’t really explain it
I’m so into you
Ohhhh, no no no no nooooo

Sippin' on something
Drink it up, Hit the floor
And rock your body
Wil'out cuz its a party HEY!
I saw you for the first time
When you were walking on to the block
You had a fine throw-back, timberlands to match
And now I don't see you no-more
And I'm tryin to find out where you at
Cuz you would look so much better next to me
OHH-wait you sexy baby come back this way
And now I know I'm looking good and no need to frontin'
All eyes on me

'Bout to hit the floor so tell me who want it

On the west is IHOP, east is the Coffee Shop, south the Waffle House
Baby come dance with me!
Ooooooooooooooooooooooo whooooooo step step step step
Ooooooooooooooooooooooo whooooooo rock rock rock rock
Ooooooooooooooooooooooo whooooooo bounce bounce bounce bounce
Hit the floor and rock your body
I've been drowning in my own tears
Wasting time running from my fears
When all the while you've been right here
Waiting on me
If I'd have told you what I'm going through
You would have let me know just what to do
And now I know the answer lies in you
This is my pain 'cause
I've been hurt so bad
Sometimes it makes me sad
Would you rain on me?
I don't understand
This was not my plan
Would you rain on me?
Don't stop the rain
Sometimes I felt all alone
Nothing or no one to call my own
But you're the only one that would be
Faithful forevermore
Deep down inside my soul
You're the only one who really knows
What I need to make me whole
So I can smile again, I
Rain on me, show me love
I'm waiting on you
Yes, I know sometimes it's rough
Tell me what to do
Rain on me, show me love
I'm waiting on you
You said that I could trust in you
[JD]
Turn it up, uh, uh
So So Def
Ladies and gentleman
You've got the fine ass Tamia in the house tonight
She just came from off tour
She got a little story she wants y'all to hear, remix
[Tamia]
I don't understand
You look just like my man
In the picture, heh sitting by my bed
The suspense is pounding and it's clouding up my head
I'm checkin' your clothes
And you wear the same size shoe
You sleep on his side (his side)
Driving his ride (his ride)
But I don't know just who you are
1 - There's a stranger in my house
Took a while to figure out
There's no way you could be who you say you are
You gotta be someone else
Cause he wouldn't touch me like that
And he wouldn't treat me like you do
He would adore me, he wouldn't ignore me
So I'm convinced there's a stranger in my house
I'm not sure who you are
Don't see your shadow around when you walk, no
You leave with no kisses
Goodbye with no words
If these walls could talk
They would have nothing to tell
So what could it be?
Is there someone immitating me?
Could she be taking my place?
Look me in the face
And tell me that I'm wrong when I say...
Repeat 1
Pop quiz
Tell me where we first kissed
Tell me where my spot is
Tell me if I liked it, loved it
Or could it be
That the stranger is me
Have I changed so drastically?
Is it I want more for me?
And you remain the same
[JD]
If the beat stop rockin'
The Def will keep rockin'
If the beat stop rockin'
The Def will keep rockin'
If the Def stop rockin'
The kids will keep rockin'
If the beat stop rockin'
The Def will keep rockin'
Yeah you know how I do
Tamia, the remix, yeah
Uh-huh, oh sing-a-long y'all
I'm taking it straight to the club
Tamia, uh oh, what?
[Tamia]
There's a stranger in my house
Repeat 1 to fade
Verse 1
For the first time in my life
I just might be tongue tied
For me to wake up with kissing me
Saying you've been missing me
What a beautiful surprise
Pre-Chorus
Cause I wasn't expecting you til' late tonight (No)
And I didn't hear you come inside
But there's nothing in this world that I want more
Than to have my baby back in my arms
All I can say is…
(Chorus)
Ooh, aah
So happy that I could cry
What a beautiful surprise
Ooh, aah
My man is back by my side
What a beautiful surprise
Verse 2:
I ain't that easy to shock
But it looks like you hit the spot
For me to wake up with holding me
Telling me you're loving me
You got my heart on lock (Yeah)
Pre-Chorus
Cause I wasn't expecting you til' late tonight (No)
And I didn't hear you come inside
But there's nothing in this world that I want more
Than to have my baby back in my arms
All I can say is…
(Chorus)
Ooh, aah
So happy that I could cry
What a beautiful surprise
Ooh, aah
My man is back by my side
What a beautiful surprise
I was needing you so bad
How did you know
It feels like I'm dreaming
My mind is blown
For you to be the first thing that I see when I open my eyes
Such a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful surprise
(Chorus)
Ooh, aah
So happy that I could cry
What a beautiful surprise
Ooh, ahh
My man is back by my side
Why do birds suddenly appear
Every time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
Why do stars fall down from the sky
Every time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
On the day that you were born
and the angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust
in your hair
And starlight in your eyes
Like they do
That is why all the guys in town
Follow you all around
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
If only for a minute
I’d settle for an hour
And if you could stay just for one day
That would make me so happy happy baby
See it won’t hurt to give our love a try
Girl don’t u pass me by
Cuz I’m that kind of guy
Who’s going to love and treat you like a queen
That is why all the girls in town
Follow you all around
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
Come a little closer baby
Lay your head up on my shoulder baby
Boy you know I cant deny it
You done already set my soul on fire
Just like me, they long to be
Baby you should know that,
I've been afraid to try.
I'm healing from some things and
My tears are pale and dry.
I said "I'm through with love"
You made it all a lie.
You turned my never ever
Into one more time
[Chorus:]
If I happen to fall (I feel it coming on)
In love (Think I could fall in love)
Please protect my heart
Happen to fall (Been through so many things)
In love (I'm tired of fragile, baby)
please protect my heart
Baby you should know that,
I like what's going on.
The way you make me feel,
I've seen this all before.
You are incredible,
I can't deny that, no.
Could be my everything but,
Baby don't break my heart
[Chorus:]
If I happen to fall (I feel it coming on)
In love (Think I could fall in love)
Please protect my heart.
Happen to fall (Been through so many things)
In love (I'm tired of fragile, baby)
Please protect my heart
Deep in my heart I believe that,
You really care for me.
I pray that this time,
Love lasts eternally
[Chorus:]
If I happen to fall (I feel it coming on)
In love (Think I could fall in love)
Please protect my heart
Happen to fall (Been through so many things)
In love (I'm tired of fragile, baby)
Please protect my heart
Hurry up and make a move do something
I'm trying to leave

He met her in his hometown a couple of years ago
She was beautiful inside and out
How could he just let her go
He had girls on the side and he tried to hide
But somehow she knew
Still she stayed, she stayed
But she would always cry every night
But then he noticed a change
She no longer had tears on her face
When a woman stops cryin,
You best believe she has a new plan
She's preparing for something new
Something that doesn't include you
When a woman cease to cry
She bout ready to say good-bye
Good-bye...
When you stay out late she don't call
To ask where you are n where you at
She just gives you this look when you
Come home that says betta watch your back
Fellas listen to ya girl when she tells
You that she's all cried out
You betta pray that she stays
If she no longer cries every night
If she doesn't complain anymore
She's makin her way to that front door
When a woman stops cryin,
You best believe she has a new plan
She's preparing for something new
Something that doesn't include you
When a woman cease to cry
She bout ready to say...
Just as long as she is arguing
Fussin and complainin as long
As she will cry sometimes
Everything (everything) is alright
But as soon as she is quiet
When you mess up she's silent
And has this certain smile upon her face
When a woman stops cryin,
You best believe she has a new plan
She's preparing for something new
Something that doesn't include you
(Baby it don't include you)
When a woman cease to cry
When a woman stops cryin
Yeah, I'm back in this joint right here
For all my people who
Who sick of playin' seconds and
And takin' somebody's leftovers
Get out the back seat, take the passenger seat
Ya know what I'm sayin'?
Heh, ya'll feel me? Y'all feel me?
Hear me out
Is it me or her babe?
You gotta make your decision
Cuz you got the wrong impression
I don't want nobody's seconds
I just want all of you babe
I'm used to gettin' what I like
Just to curve my appetite
Serve you on a flame with a first class flight
I wanna be the girl you take to your crib
And not the girl you hate to show where you live
I wanna be the girl for you all your life
And not the girl you're thinkin' of late at night
Let's be truthful please
Will she always be around?
I need to know right here and now
Can I bury her underground?
I just want all of you babe
And she's always in the way
And she's always in your face
Am I the one who's being played?
I wanna be the girl you take to your crib
And not the girl you hate to show where you live
I wanna be the girl for you all your life
And not the girl you're thinkin' of late at night
Not your chick on the side

So you gon' have to pick
Between Lisa, Kim and Stacy, and whoever

Un'h, crazy things when I'm alone with you
Un'h, when the lights go out
Un'h, that's when I'm all about
Un'h, un'h, to you
If you wanna see what's really goin' on
Don't you wanna find the spot that turns me on
I can tell you've got what it takes
To satisfy me
I must admit it baby, oh oh

You were there rubbin' on my thighs
Touchin' me, and kissin' me
Feels so real, like you're here with me

There's a stranger in my house
Took a while to figure out
There's no way you could be
Who you say you are, you got to be someone else
'Cause he wouldn't touch me like that
And he wouldn't treat me like you do
He would adore me, he wouldn't ignore me
So I'm convinced there's an stranger in my house
I don't understand
You look just like my man
In the picture by our bed
The suspense is pounding and clouding up my head
I'm checking your clothes
And you wear the same size shoe
You sleep in his spot and your driving his car
But I don't know just who you are
There's a stranger in my house
Took a while to figure out

I'm not sure who you are
Don't see your shadow around when you walk
You leave with no kisses, goodbye with no words
If these walls could talk they would have nothing to tell
So what could it be
Is there someone imitating me?
Could she be taking my place, look me in the face
And tell me that I'm wrong when I say
There's a stranger in my house
Took a while to figure out
There's no way you could be
Who you say you are, you got to be someone else
'Cause he wouldn't touch me like that
And he wouldn't treat me like you do
He would adore me, he wouldn't ignore me
So I'm convinced there's an stranger in my house
Pop quiz, tell me where we first kissed?
Tell me where my spot is? Tell me if I liked it, loved it?
Or could it be that the stranger is me, have I changed so drasticly?
Is it I want more than me and you remain the same?

Mmmm yea-hey-oh-woah-oh yea-hey-oh-woah-oh-woah usually when two people are together for a long
Time things seem to change its been said nothing good lasts forever, but this love gets better

Eyes, and i still got love in my soul

Sittin' here on the job
And hopin' that you would call me
My eyes, my eyes are tired
From us sittin' up and just talking, all night
My supervisor noticed
I'm kind of slow for today
My girlfriends also noticed
I'm joyful, what can I say?
It's only been 2 months
But I'm prayin' that you're the one
Please baby, be the one
Please baby be
Keep replaying your kisses
Can't get them out of my mind, I try
My work is piling up and
Who'd guess that I'd get behind but that's fine
It's only 12:07
I take my first break at 2
It seems I have a message
I hope to God that it's you
It's only been 2 months
But I'm prayin' that you're the one
Please baby, be the one
Please baby be
It's 2:13 I'm smiling
I hear your voice on the phone
Oh my, tell me you wanna see me
Can't wait until I get home, tonight
My mind says, "Slow it down, girl
This thing right here is so new"
But my heart says keep it movin'
Two thoughts but I'm not confused
It's only been 2 months
But I'm prayin' that you're the one
Please baby, be the one

And i want that someone to be you

Every now and then
I seem to get this funny feelin'
When it comes to me and you
Can't say how or when
But your love keeps takin' over
And I don't know what to do
Well, I think that you oughta let me know what
What you're gonna do
'Cause time's wasting, baby much too fast and
I need to know if it's true
(So baby let me know)
Baby, let me know if you want me
I really wanna know if you want me
And baby, if you don't tell me something
I gotta move on
'Cause everybody needs a little lovin'
And you're the only one that I wanna be with
I'm sorry if you don't tell me something
But I gotta move on
Baby, understand
I need more than conversation,
I need action from a man
'Cause I'll do all I can
To keep our love from going under
Now it's time you take a stand
Well, I think that you oughta let me know what
What you're gonna do
'Cause time's wasting, baby much too fast and
I need to know if it's true
(So baby let me know)
Baby, let me know if you want me

And baby, if you don't tell me something
I gotta move on
'Cause everybody needs a little lovin'
And you're the only one that I wanna be with
I'm sorry if you don't tell me something
Oh yeah, oh
You had just walked in from work
And there's a letter in the kitchen with your name on it
Inside, you will find an
Answer for each question you had
You had to know the day would come
That I'd find out that you are a liar
And a player, and the list goes on
So it hurts you now
But it would hurt even more if I stayed, so
Hope that you can understand
That you were once my man
But it's time to move on
Since you're playing games, oh
You thought the day would never come
Never ever thought that you
Would be reading Dear John
You be sure to read each line
Line by line, and take your time
You thought the day would never come
Never ever thought that you
Would be reading Dear John
By the time you read this letter
I'll be feeling much better
So long, it means I'm gone
Guess that you are wondering
How did she know that I
Was the type to play you
If you read, you'll find out
I have to end it
Bet I was right from the start
And I never took the time to ask myself
Why, oh, why would you waste your time
On a nigga in the club with a group of thugs
You shoulda known it was on
When I kept callin' your job
And they said that you were sick
So I paged you, don't get no call back
Now it all makes sense
The two of us are not meant to be
So by the time you read this letter
And try to make things better
Save your lines
But read each one of mine
Wish you'd see your game was not
Strong enough to keep me holding on
You be strong, time for me to go cuz
You thought the day would never come
Never ever thought that you
Would be reading Dear John
You be sure to read each line
Line by line, and take your time
You thought the day would never come
Never ever thought that you
Would be reading Dear John
By the time you read this letter
I'll be feeling much better
So long, it means I'm gone
You thought the day would never come
Never ever thought that you
Would be reading Dear John
You be sure to read each line
Line by line, and take your time
You thought the day would never come
Never ever thought that you
Would be reading Dear John
By the time you read this letter
I'll be feeling much better
So long, it means I'm gone
I wish I could see the look on your face
Ha ha ha, ha ha ha
And you wish you could just see my face
No no no, no no no
You thought I was playin' when I said you had
One more time, one more time
But if you can play this game
Then I can play it too, cuz...
You thought the day would never come
Never ever thought that you
Would be reading Dear John
You be sure to read each line
Line by line, and take your time
You thought the day would never come
Never ever thought that you
Would be reading Dear John
By the time you read this letter
I'll be feeling much better
Mmm, mmm, mmm yeah
Oh oh ohh, ooh ooh
I can't let you go babe
I don't think that I could (I never could)
Cuz everytime I try to forget you
I think about the sex is too good (yeah)
The way you hold my body babe
There's no other man that could
And even if he tried to turn me on
I don't think that he would, yeah
Can't no feet fill your shoe
Ain't no other man can rock me like you do
They can try to huff and puff and blow you down
But when we make love baby, you mark your ground
Can't no ?? wit' you
Ain't no other man can rock me like you do
They can try to huff and puff and blow you down
But when we make love baby, you mark your ground
Everytime we argue babe
I just wanna give up
But when I see your face babe
I just wanna make up
Cuz there's no other man
That be pleasing me
And not only are you incredible
Baby I'm in L-O-V-E, yeah
Can't no ?? wit' you
Ain't no other man can rock me like you do
They can try to huff and puff and blow you down
But when we make love baby, you mark your ground
Can't no ?? wit' you
Ain't no other man can rock me like you do
They can try to huff and puff and blow you down
But when we make love baby, you mark your ground
I'm just so caught up on you
I just don't know what to do
I can't get enough of you
I'm gon' spend my life with you
Baby can't you feel it too
The love between me and you
Baby you gon' mark your ground
Baby I won't turn you down
I'm just so caught up on you
I just don't know what to do
I can't get enough of you
I'm gon' spend my life with you
Baby can't you feel it too
The love between me and you
Baby you gon' mark your ground
Baby I won't turn you down
Can't no ?? wit' you
Ain't no other man can rock me like you do
They can try to huff and puff and blow you down
But when we make love baby, you mark your ground
Can't no ?? wit' you
Ain't no other man can rock me like you do
They can try to huff and puff and blow you down
Oh yeah oh i'm feelin
This one right here
Don't know
I don't know whats going on
Somethings happened
I just don't feel the same at all
When you touch me
I just have to close my eyes
Each time you hug me
Feelings happening inside
And i
Im about to say whats always been forbidden
Between us
Baby somethings about to happen
Tell me you cannot feel us falling
You and I are about to become us
Ohhh
Feels like
Feels like I been going crazy for your loving
And even though we're only friends
I need much loving
So much more of you than what you have been giving
Feel us happening inside
And i
Im about to say whats always been forbidden
Between us
Baby somethings about to happen
Tell me you cannot feel us falling
You and I are about to become us
Ohhh
We could become one baby
So much more
In love
And I love you baby
I trust you baby
With my all
Baby somethings about to happen
Tell me you cannot feel us falling
Baby somethings about to happen
Tell me you cannot feel us falling
Baby somethings about to happen
Tell me you cannot feel us falling
Baby somethings about to happen
Tell me you cannot feel us falling
When I'm down
You show me love
When times get rough
You show me love
When I can't go on
You show me love again
Over and over again
When I had no one to call my own
So brokenhearted and all alone
You were there to comfort me
You're my everything
And no one can love me like you do
When I had no one to turn to
You were always there to see me through
No one can love me quite the way you do
You're my heart, you're my joy
And everyday
You make it alright
Late at night
When I'm troubled 'bout tomorrow
You come and make everything alright
In my time of need
Baby you give love to me
My love, my joy
You know you do
