It's you by yourself, yea
In spite of the crowd
(Baby no one else matters)

Your heart beats for me

3.You're Fly

We started out as friends
Now we friends with benefits
When the freaking began
That's the end of tha innocence
Speaking o' innocence, baby I can remember when
I never used to call you, I was a gentleman
I, was on my cash grind
I had to make moves
And when I got mine, I came and get you
You couldn't believe the way I flipped it
Did it that smooth
I couldn't believe it was that easy to impress you

? how I knew that you were the one
You were a pretty little thing, had all the fun
I been to city after city, looking for love
I want you, ah
I wouldn't spend a penny though I had all the change
You made me switch now I'm thinking another way
And outta all these other women I got to say
I want you, ah

You can see it when you look around
(Yea, said, it's obvious to everybody I'm staring at chu)
I'm so happy that I finally found
(I found someone to show my love, yea, and it's you babe)
And I notice that your love is real
('cause I never found anything like this; only when I'm around
you)
It's reflected in the way I feel
(How much said though I'm sure you know)

Baby you're fly
Baby you're fly
I love the way you walk
And the look in your eye
Maybe it's lust
Maybe it's me
But you can be sure I'll give you what you need
You're fly girl, and baby it shows
I would tell the world but they already know
Baby you're fly
Take it from me
You can be sure I'll give you what you need

Tonight I wanna try to engage your mind
I know you must be tired of hearing the same old line
Bout how they want you but they really ain't saying it right
I want you, (I know you like that)
If you feeling what I'm saying then understand
I'ma stroke your body like it's an instrument
I'ma show you why my touch is so in demand
When I touch you, uh

You can see it when you look around
(Yea, said, it's obvious to everybody I'm staring at chu)
I'm so happy that I finally found
(I found someone to show my love, yea, and it's you babe)
And I notice that your love is real
('cause I never found anything like this, only when I'm around
you)
It's reflected in the way I feel
(How much said though I'm sure you know)

Baby you're fly
Baby you're fly
I love the way you walk
And the look in your eye
Maybe it's lust
Maybe it's me
But you can be sure I'll give you what you need
You're fly girl, and baby it shows
I would tell the world but they already know
Baby you're fly
Take it from me
You can be sure I'll give you what you need

Lemme talk to you...
See I knew you was a dime when I met you on broadway
Told you, you was fly, you said 'that's what they all say'
I made it easy; you showed me the hard way
Even though the look in your eye was like foreplay
I got some great taste in women
I've had a lot but when it comes to great face, you're winning
Very familiar, with private spots, lace the linen
It's like a curse with a gift I've been given, that's how I'm
living

Baby you're fly
Baby you're fly
I love the way you walk
And the look in your eye
Maybe it's lust
Maybe it's me
But you can be sure I'll give you what you need
You're fly girl, and baby it shows
I would tell the world but they already know
Baby you're fly
Take it from me
You can be sure I'll give you what you need
Baby you're fly
Baby you're fly
I love the way you walk
And the look in your eye
Maybe it's lust
Maybe it's me
But you can be sure I'll give you what you need
You're fly girl, and baby it shows
I would tell the world but they already know
Baby you're fly
Take it from me
You can be sure I'll give you what you need

Tonight... uh... baby... yeah
Hey... yeah... uh... rock with me now


4.Quicksand

I'm emotional, yes it's true
Cause I've been looking for a pretty girl
Just like you, heh
And I get butterflies, when we close
And I can tell by how she plays the game
She knows

So I'm emotional, I can't hide
Cause she classic but she ain't afraid to ride
And she's incompable, She's a 10
And she plays with all her silly heart to mend

That's why you got me in
Quick sand, Quick sand
Can't believe that I'm stuck
That's why you got me in
Quick sand, Quick sand
Can't believe I'm stuck

I'm emotional, yes it's true
Cause I've been looking for a pretty girl
Just like you, hah
And I get butterflies, when we close
And I can tell by how she plays the game
She knows

So I'm emotional, I can't hide
Cause she classic but she ain't afraid to ride
And she's incompable, She's a 10
And she plays with all her silly heart to mend

That's why you got me in
Quick sand, Quick sand
Can't believe that I'm stuck
That's why you got me in
Quick sand, Quick sand
Can't believe I'm stuck

That's why you got me in
Quick sand, Quick sand
Can't believe that I'm stuck
That's why you got me in
Quick sand, Quick sand
Can't believe I'm stuck


5.Valentine

I don't have to say you're beautiful
You've got plenty other guys to say those words for you
And I don't have to say you run the show
All it takes is a word, I lose control for you

I know you're not my girlfriend, but
I swear that I love you
Baby I do
I know you're not my girlfriend, but
I swear that I love you
Baby I do

I don't have to say you stole my heart
'Cause anything I have I freely give to you
And I knew right from the very start
That the only place I belong is next to you

I know you're not my girlfriend, but
I swear that I love you
Baby I do
I know you're not my girlfriend, but
I swear that I love you
Baby I do

Even thru all
The ups and downs
You can't stop
The way I feel now
Even thru the storm
Joy & pain
I won't change
Still feel the same
Anytime you call
I don't care
No matter the reason
I'll be there
Constantly on my mind
And that's why I'm hoping
You will be my
Valentine (valentine)

I know you're not my girlfriend, but
I swear that I love you
Baby I do
I know you're not my girlfriend, but
I swear that I love you
Baby I do
I know you're not my girlfriend, but
I swear that I love you
Baby I do
I know you're not my girlfriend, but
I swear that I love you
Baby I do

... and I know you love me too

For your tender touch

On a sundrenched isle
After we go down the aisle

Our love is amplified
The type that only God provides
And it comes from you

7.How it Was Supposed to Be

Fresh like the kiss of morning dew
That's how it felt that day we met
And I first laid eyes on you (yeah)
It's like you walked right about my fantasy
And then you left that day
Girl why did you abandon me
Baby you'll see when you

And I wonder if you'll ever find out how it was supposed to be,
baby
Said I wonder if you'll ever find out how it was supposed to be,
baby

Now when I thnk back the days you were mine
Oh how I wish I can flip a switch to turn back the hands of time
(oh baby)
You were the one that made me real
Now that you're gone tell me what in the world am I suppose to
feel.
Without you here with me

And I wonder if you'll ever find out how it was supposed to be
baby
Said I wonder if you'll ever find out how it was supposed to be
baby

Listen
Something tells me I've been wrong
Of the love I felt that you should have given
Never thought you would leave me on my own
But I see that it's over
And I hope one day you're mine

And I wonder if you'll ever find out how it was supposed to be
baby
Said I wonder if you'll ever find out how it was supposed to be
baby
And I wonder if you'll ever find out how it was supposed to be
baby
Said I wonder if you'll ever find out how it was supposed to be
baby (yeah)

Said I might not speak your language
But I know just what to say baby
I-R-I-N-A!
Oooh I wanna see you everyday

Now when I ask myself...
it's hard to see...
how you can be anywhere but here with me...

so you would be able to make up your mind...
you said if I set you free...
one day you'll be ready to come back to me...
did you really mean it? I hope you did...
hope you ment it babe...
