Mary J Blige Mary Lyrics
1.All That I Can Say

Hmmm
Loving you is wonderful
Something like a miracle
Rest assured i feel the same way you do
Meeting you isn't hard
With you i can't let down my guard
Stay secure that's all i'm asking from you
(stay secure)

I wish i had words to tell (i wish)
This feeling that i know so well
But i don't, i don't
(chrous)
1 - all that i can say
(do do, do do, do do, doo)
All that i can say
(do do, do do, do do, doo)

(chorus)

I've always been curious
Meeting someone serious
Looking for someone who loves like me
But the day i stopped my search
It seemed that you were put on this earth
To show me everything i could not see

I wish i could find a way
To tell you how i felt that day
But i can't (i just can't)
I can't

(chorus 2x)

Hmmm, oh
Knowing him, loving him
Showing him that i'm all him
Living and forgiving and
I would do it all again
Genuine, servant
Sweeter than cinamon
Heaven-sent gentleman
Sent him here for loving him
Ooh, oh
Ooh, oh

(chorus 2x)

He's all that i'll ever need
He's got a hold on me
I love you
Oh i don't wanna live without you
You're all that i can say, hey
Loving you is wonderful
(do do, do do, do do, doo)
All that i can say
(do do, do do, do do, doo)
All that i can say


2.Beautiful Ones

oh no so beautiful
So beautiful

Verse 1
I'd give my flesh for yours
I'd sacrifice everything
You are my door to a new beginning
A lucky charm, potato pie
So sweet you make me cry
I can't deny
The way you make me feel inside

Chorus:
You are a beautiful one
And i long to hold
You until the sun
Goes down on your soul

Verse 2
Have mercy on me
I'm crazy 'bout you
Looking all the ethereal
Lips make me through
You are my song when there's no music to play
Oh i wanna marry someone like you someday

Chorus
You are a beautiful one
And i long to hold
You until the sun
Goes down on your soul

Bridge
Oh beautiful one... don't you ever go, don't you ever go

Verse 3
Can't you hear the bell's ringing
Doves flying in the air
With this ring i promise to always be right there
Through the good and the bad time
Forever yours i will remain
With your love baby and my life
You know we can stop the rain, yeah

Chorus
You are a beautiful one
And i long to hold
You until the sun
Goes down on your soul

Oh beautiful one...
Don't you ever go, don't you go...

Chorus

Oh beautiful one
Don't you ever go, don't you ever go


3.Deep Inside

Yeah, yeah, oh, oh

The problem is, for many years
I've lived my life, publicly
So it's hard for me to find a man i trust
I rarely trust

And every time i find someone i like
Gotta worry about if it's really me
That they see
And i thought you were the one, oh

1 - deep inside i wish that you could see
That i'm just plain old mary
Mary

Repeat 1

I don't have a lot of friends
And sometimes i have to wonder
Is it cash they see when they look at me
Cause they're looking for a ride that's free
So i made the choice to be
Good to those who were good to me
Don't judge me or think i'm bitter
For the evil god's allowed me to see
I'm just mary

2 - i'm just mary, just mary, just mary

Repeat 2 (3x)

Repeat 1 (4x)

It's the car i drive
The clothes i wear
The diamonds, the furs, and the house
Don't make the woman
So i need someone
To stand by me
And supply my needs
And i'm just plain old mary

Repeat 1 till end


4.Don't Waste Your Time

Mary j blige & aretha franklin

Lately i've got this funny feeling
Something don't feel the same
But he's telling me i'm the one to blame
Yes i know he still gives me good loving
But when he's deep inside
There's somebody else on his mind


Sister girl, sister girl
It's much deeper than what you're thinking
When something don't feel the same
Yeah you better believe his love has change
(and i have been telling you, telling you)
And what you're telling me
(it's been hurting me, hurting me)
It ain't, it ain't complete
He's got a sweetie on the side
Stop making truth, out of his lies

Repeat 1

What's the point of love
When you got no trust
What's the point of staying
When you seen enough
What's the point of giving
What he don't deserve

He don't deserve it
No you don't deserve it

Oh what's the point of feeling

Like there's nothing inside
What's the point of saying
That you still got your pride
What's the point of giving
What he don't deserve
This is the last time
I'm gonna love you

Repeat 1


5.Give Me You

Mary j blige f/ eric clapton

I don't ask for too many things
Only one thing i really need
That is you baby next to me
With that i'm satisfied
Don't need diamonds
I don't need gold

7.Let No Man Put Asunder

I'm surprised to see your suitcase at the door
Remember the good times, don't you want some more
It's not a perfect love, but i'll defend it
Cause i believe that's what god intended

1 - we got love too good to throw away

2 - it's not over between you and me
It's not over, don't want to be free

3 - what has been joined by god, by god
Let no man put asunder
Oh no don't throw it away
Don't throw it away

I can't hear those words spoken, understood
Making bonds through love, the times are better good
I'm convinced that what is meant to be will be
Even the stars declare that you belong to me

Repeat 1

Repeat 2

Repeat 3

Hmmm, oh, oh, oh yeah

Repeat 2 (2x)

(it's not over)
Said i need you
And i want you
I got to have you every day in my dog gone life
(it's not over)
It's not over, no, no, no
(it's not over)
(it's not over)
(it's not over)
Said i need you
And i want you
I got to have you every day in my dog gone life
(it's not over)
It's not over, no, no, no
(it's not over)
(it's not over)
Baby, baby, baby, oh, hmm, hmm

See, one thing i know about me and you
That no matter what we go through baby
I know you will be coming back someday
Because i know deep inside you feel the same
Because it's not over
It's not over, no, no, between you and me
It's not over, hmmm na
Say ooh baby, ooh baby
Come on y'all, come on y'all
You know what i'm saying
Because it's not over
It's not over, no, no, between you and me
Baby, baby, baby
It's not over


8.Memories

Hmm, hmm, whoa, oh

Sitting here all alone on valentine's day
I really wanna call him up
But my pride is all in the way (hey, hey, hey)
Picture's getting clearer
I see what's been going wrong for years
The once you say you're far
Really are so near
I'm thinking of

1 - roses that you sent to me
All the kisses that you gave to me
Memories of what we used to be
All alone this special today
Thinking &bout the time you went away
Valentine's day will never be the same

How come men nowadays bring you so much joy
And so much pain
Can anybody help me?
I think i'm going insane
Valentine's day will never be the same
Cause i'm think about you always
I cherish everything you gave to me
I'm thinking of

Repeat 1

You took my love for granted
Did you mean to think everything was fine between me and you
Everytime this thing comes around
I wanna feel your touch
I can't believe what you did to me
How could you do me wrong
But still i must move on

I gotta move on, ooh oh

I swear tired of playing games
(my mind, mind, mind is all confused)
I don't wanna be down, go ahead, go ahead (go ahead, oh)

10.No Happy Holidays

I can't believe
After all this time
I'm in love with a man
Who can never be mine
And just to think
I believe one day you'd really leave
Like you said you would
Cause you don't love her
But your little girl really needs you, oh

1 - christmas you weren't with me
New year's eve you were not around
Valentine's came and went
Makes me wonder where your time was spent
Fireworks on the fourth of july
Thanksgiving was another lie
Your family has never met me
And you've never met mine, no happy holiday

I have to let go of this feeling
Being with you deprives me of a true love
I can't go on living this life
Without being number one
This is finally goodbye
I pray to god you live a happy life
Cause loving you just isn't right
Make her your wife

Repeat 1

I wish i had known
The situation from the start
Now it's complicated
Because i gave you my heart
Honestly i held on
I held on for dear life
For my ego, my pride
But what goes around, come around
But maybe next time i'll be on the other side

Hmm, oh, yeah, oh
Last time little didi, di
You're gone do, do, do, dum
Do do, do, do, do ooh, hey oh

Repeat 1


11.Sexy

Can't have you, if i wanted to
Can't let you get away from me
Can't have you, if i wanted to
Can't let you go, no

Repeat 1

Looking in my mirror
Thinking 'bout last night
I can't help but see you
Running often through my mind

Repeat 1

You were saying mary
Don't let go, hold tight
I just wanna hold you
All through the night

This is something that i can't deny
Boy you know your touch just drives me wild
Won't you take my hand i'll set you free
I want you to belong to me

Repeat 1

Oh, oh oh oh, oh, oh, oh

Uh, uh-huh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh-huh, uh
Yo, yo, yo
You might bump into the kiss late night
Or on the dn speeding
In the drop, four thirty on my way to rock a birdie
With automatic lead in the car, bread in the car
Plus i'm gettin' head in the car
My wedding tomorrow
More dutchies to the head, the ready you are
After the session with shorty
I'll be better tomorrow
And you know how we are
We always keep one or two
That don't say much
Like to hit a blunt or two
Or don't mind driving with raw in the trunk
Or freaking off for the week
Top floor in the trunk
Just laying back blowing
Twenty five's a skull
The our keys by the door with bow ties and posts
Can't let me get away
But you ain't ready for kiss
Got the chevy and the six
Wrists heavy and shit
Matter of fact we gonna take a trip
And put the dats up
And cop the pink lemonade cadillac truck

Repeat 1 (2x)

Repeat 2

Can't have you, if i wanted to
Can't have you,
Can't let you go, no
Can't have you, if i wanted to
Can't have you,
Can't let you go, no

Repeat 1 till end


12.The Love I Never Had

You know sometimes
There come a time in your life
When you love something
You got to let it go
And even though
You might feel there's still something there
You have to wake up
Stop leaving in a dream
Cause it's over now
You got to think about you

I have always wondered why
Why i can't live without you babe
And i'm longing to be your lady
I understand that you are leaving
Please don't live here without me baby
Cause i think i might go insane

1 - cause everybody needs someone to love
And i know that it's true
And i know that it's you
I don't understand
Why you can't be my man
So i better wake up
Stop living in a dream
Yes i better wake up
Cause i can't lose the love i never had
Yeah i better wake up
As painful as it seems
Yes i better wake up
I can not lose the love i never had

Every time i close my eyes
I see visions of you and i
Sharing love of a special kind
I got to laugh to keep from crying
To hide all the pain inside
Cause i can't get you off my mind

Repeat 1

Oh, it made me realize
I don't want to live apart
But you don't know how hard i tried
What do i have to lose?
Oh i think a little bit more than you
And i doubt that you will see things
Clearly before it's too late

Repeat 1

Never had, never had, never had
Break it down, break it down

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
All the times i've cried
It made me realize
That i was holding on to a lie
But you don't know how hard i tried
To make sure you were satisfy yeah
Cause i thought you were only mine
And i doubt you will see things clearly
Before it's too late, too late, too late
I don't understand why you can't be my man
Oh everybody needs somebody to love
Everybody needs somebody yeah
Oh, do do do...
Baby, baby, baby i can't live with you
And i doubt you will see things clearly
Before it's too late, yeah
Oh you hurt me so, you hurt me so
Love that i that i never had
I can't lose, i can't lose
I can not lose, i can not lose
Oh i can't lose a love i never had


13.Time

1 - if i have my way
Life would be just fine
But the world is too much
And it makes me cry
Sometimes i feel like leaving
But i must be wise
Because time is not on our side (on our side)
(don't you that time is not on our side)
Because time is not on our side (on our side)

The end is coming
Stop your running
I'm telling you this is the truth
You can talk about
What you read about
Everything is on the news
People nowadays so shady
Now what is wrong with them
Something cast a spell up on their minds
And they always wanna condemn

Repeat 1

While your judging me
You should look around
And you'll see how people going down
Some of them are killed over a dime
Now tell me do we really have the time
To continue with this madness
Cause i'm sick and tired of this
Trying to crush my world with jealousy
And i'm about to catch a fit

Repeat 1

You're deceiving
What's the meaning
Of your retrieving
The enemy's greeting
We all are leaving, someday but
We don't know how, we are going
Please believe me, when i tell you
That time is not really on our side

Repeat 1 till end


14.Your Child

It's too bad, it's too bad
It's too bad, it's too bad baby
But i gotta face reality
It's too bad, it's too bad
Too bad baby, yeah
But i gotta face reality

Today you had a visitor
Or should i say an old friend
But wait a minute
That's not where it ends no
Is there something
That you want to tell me, hmm
Cause i'm believing what your friends say
About your hidden secret seeds

1 - the girlfriend
She wasn't disrespectful
In fact, she's a hundred percent sure
And how could i argue with her
Holding a baby with eyes like yours

2 - she said it's your child
And it really messed me up
How could you deny
Your own flesh and blood
Gotta face reality
There can never be anymore us
More than life hurt me
Yes so precious

She said she never, wanted to hurt me
And could i understand, she's afraid and lost
She said a real woman wouldn't do this over the phone
And that you told her about me after the baby was born

Repeat 1

Repeat 2 (2x)

Hmm, oh i can't, looks just like you
How could you deny your own flesh and blood
Your own child
What kind of man are you?
Oh, oh the girlfriend
