Lisa Stansfield Number One Remixes Ep Lyrics
1.I'm Leavin'

Written:Taura Stinson/Craiyge Lindesay

I come home from work and have a glass of wine
Kick off my shoes and wait on you
Well it's way past dawn and your still gone
Where in the world is my boo?

See I was fallin' asleep and you were creeping in
I never would have noticed until when
Until I smelt perfume, the kind I do not wear
My baby's been messin' around again

Chorus:
You shouldn't have done me babe
Now watch what I do to you
Baby I'm leavin' I'm leavin' I'm leavin'
Leavin' you
You shouldn't have done me babe
Now watch what I do to you
Baby I'm leavin' I'm leavin' I'm leavin'
Leavin' you

How could I be so dumb? I thought I loved a man
But more and more you proved to be a boy
and now I understand
But I can't baby sit no more, it's not what I loved you for
I'd rather be alone bye-bye cos' I'm really leavin' this time

Chorus

Look at you now begging down on your knees
Thinking I'm coming back, Oh child please
I said I was leavin' I mean whet I say
There's no turning around I'm Ieavin' today

Chorus

No I can't baby sit no more, it's not what I loved you for
I'd rather be alone bye-bye cos' I'm really leavin' this time

2.Never Gonna Fall

Lyrics:L.Stansfield/I.Devaney
Music:L.Stansfield/I.Devaney

I searched, I found and I lost love
Now I've started all over
Now not a day goes by when
I'm not sure you're the one

'Cos you give me something baby
It's a feeling I just can't contain
You give me something baby
And it's something I'll never find again

Chorus:
You give me love you give me life
Darlin' what more can I want
I'm never gonna fail in love again
You're givin' me something more and I know
I won't be searching no more
I'm never gonna fall in love again

I wake and feel you by my side
And your touch is so tender
I'm so at home in your caress
In your arms

'Cos you give me something baby
It's a feeling I just can't contain
You give me something baby
And it's something I'll never find again

Chorus

'Cos I got you baby, you baby, you
I got you baby, you baby, you
I got you baby, you baby, you
I got you baby, you baby, you

Oh I've found someone
Someone who I can depend on
And it changed my life
Knowing that I can survive

Chorus

'Cos I got you baby, you baby, you
I got you baby, you baby, you
I got you baby, you baby, you
I got you baby, you baby, you

3.Never Never Gonna Give You Up

Lyrics:Barry White
Music:Barry White

Spoken:
Oh baby, you know I've waited, waited so long
To sing...to sing this song

Whatever, whatever, babe I'll do it
Forever and ever, yeah. yeah, yeah, yeah,
I'll see you through it

I've got to keep you pleased in every way I can
Gonna give you all of me, as much or you can stand
Make love to you right now, that's all I want to do
I know you need it boy and you know
I need it too, cause

I've found what the world is searchin' for
Here, right here my dear I don't have to look no more
And all of my days I hoped and I prayed
For someone just like you to makes me feel the way you do

Chorus:
Never Never gonna give you up,
I'm never ever gonna stop
Not the way I feel about you babe
I just can't live without you
I'm never ever gonna quit 'cause quiting just ain't my schtick
I'm gonna lay right here with you and do all the
things you want me to

Whatever you want, boy you got it
And whatever you need
I don't want to see you without it

You've given me much more than words could ever say
Oh my dear I'II be right here until my dying day
i don't know just how to say all the things I feel
I just know that I love you so and it gives me
such a thrill 'cause

I've found what the world is lookin' for
Here, right here my dear I don't have to search no more
And all of my days I hoped and I prayed
For someone just like you to makes me feel the way you do

Chorus x 2


4.People Hold On

Written:M.Black/J.More/L.Stansfield

Everybody's looking for a meaning
Everybody's doing their own thing
And nobody's solving the problem
Ain't nobody helping each other

Some people give into fear
Some people give into hunger
Some of us live for the future
And some of us wonder

Give a little light, give a little love
Maybe there's enough for everyone
Give a little hope, and a little trust
Maybe there's enough for everyone

Chorus:
People hold on
Don't do yourself wrong
People hold on
We've got to be strong
People hold on

Everybody's getting frustrated
Why should we live with this hatered
We've all dancin' on a thin line
They're makin' out we're having a good time
So who's gonna give us the answer
Sister and brother

Givin' into life, givin' into love
Maybe there's enough for everyone

Chorus

People hold on, people hold on to it
you know you gotta do it

Give a little light, give a little love
Maybe there's enough for everyone
Give a little hope, and a little trust
Maybe there's enough for everyone

Chorus


5.The Line

Written:L.Stansfield/I.Devaney/T.Gomwells

I look at the sky to where my future's lying
And I almost start to cry
Blinded by the sun I'm trying to hold onto
The very last of precious time

Then I start to thinking what a mess we're making
And it won't get better by & by
Well we can paint it up and make it pretty but
We cannot overstep the line

Chorus:
We cannot overstep
We cannot overstep the
We cannot overstep the line

So many baby's arms with nothing to hold onto
But just a precious flake of life
You think you care about them
They think you care about them
But thinking's only wasting time

If we really want to say the things we want to
It takes a bigger man to try
Well we can paint it up and make it pretty but
We cannot overstep the line

Chorus

Well politicians sit and pretend they give a shit while
Little men go out to die
The only arms they're hugging are the ones they're running
Later to be justified

I say I don't mind
You say you don't mind
But what about the babies and what about the sunshine
Well we can paint it up and make it pretty but
We cannot overstep the line

Chorus

Say I don't mind
You say you don't mind
But what about the babies and what about the sunshine
Well we can point it up and make it pretty but
We cannot overstep the line

Chorus


6.The Real Thing

Lyrics:L.Stansfield/I.Devaney
Music:L.Stansfield/I.Devaney

Never mind the stars in the sky
Never mind the when and the why
Got a feeling higher than high
This is the real thing

No more living in shame
And I'm not gonna run or gonna hide away
No more telling all those lies
It's been too long

No more living in chains
No, I don't give a damn whet the people say
There's no use holding back desire
We've burnt our fingers now lets jump into the flames

Chorus:
Never mind the stars in the sky
Never mind the when and the why
Got a feeling higher than high
This is the real thing
Never mind the rain and the storm
We'll keep each other warm
We got something stronger than strong
This is the real thing

Gonna walk out hand in hand
So let them criticise 'cos they don't understand
We've got nothing to hide
It's just love

I've had enough of shy
So let's go out and show them what we have inside
There's no use holding back desire
We've burnt our fingers now let's jump into tho fire

Chorus

Never mind the stars in the sky baby
Never mind the when and the why baby
Never mind the stars in the sky baby
'Cos I've got a feeling that's higher than high

Oh, what you do to me, baby
Oh, what you do to me, baby

This is the real thing

Chorus

Never mind the stars in the sky baby
Never mind the when and the why baby
Never mind the stars in the sky baby
'Cos I've got a feeling that's higher than high

Chorus
