Leave It All Behind

The Foreign Exchange Leave It All Behind Lyrics
1.Daykeeper

Phonte I can't sleep at night Cause they won't see me Running
from the daylight To where she keeps me and When the sun rises
she watches over me Waiting for the daylight Cause then she'll
keep me In the safety of her arms She never leaves me and When
the sunrises she watches over me (2X) Muhsinah He tells me all
his secrets He thinks nobody knows We're laid together in
daylight I love him so And when the sunrises he watches over me
(2X) Phonte It's not like it was before And she can't keep me
anymore She loves me anymore (2X) Muhsinah He tells me all his
secrets He thinks nobody knows We're laid together in daylight I
love him so And when the sunrises he watches over me (2X) Phonte
She loves me (7X) Muhsinah Why don't cha stay here with me? I
pray that our morning won't leave Let me keep you then you'll
see Don't hide the truth from yourself Cause you that I'll love
and protect Let me keep you here with me Phonte It's not like it
was before And she can't keep me anymore She loves me anymore
(2X) Muhsinah He tells me all his secrets He thinks nobody knows
We're laid together in daylight I love him so And when the
sunrises he watches over me (2X)


2.Take Off The Blues

Lyricist:Phonte Coleman, Matthijs Nicolay Rook

(Mmm, hah, hah, hah)
You might, you might, you might, you might as well
(Mmm, hah, hah, hah, hah, hah)
After all is said and done you're next to me

And when the sun goes down
You're feeling things you've never felt before
Nothing left to say to ease your fears
But I know just what to do
Let me take good care of you

Kick off your shoes
Take off the blues and come to me
So much to do, so much is new for you to see
You might as well come a little closer
Girl, don't make me wait too long for you

After all is said and done
(Said and done)
And there's nothing left to share
(Left to share)
It's the morning after, I watch you laying there
(Just wanna watch you lying there)

Always told that you should not give in to love
(L O V E)
But saying no is so hard to do
(So hard)
'Cause when the feeling's right
You might as well, yeah

Kick off your shoes
Take off the blues and come to me
So much to do, so much is new for you to see
You might as well come a little closer
Girl, don't make me wait too long for you

Just want your attention
Excuse my intentions
Keep your feelings intact
Don't wanna hurt nobody, let me say it again

There's no need to mention
For this I've been wishing
There's no turning back, lady
Please take my hand

Let's dance

Kick off your shoes
Take off the blues and come to me
So much to do, so much is new for you to see
You might as well come a little closer
Girl, don't make me wait too long for you

Kick off your shoes
Take off the blues and come to me
So much to do, so much is new for you to see
You might as well come a little closer
Girl, don't make me wait too long for you


3.All Or Nothing Coming Home To You

movin on (I'm goin to the studio, I'll be back..) Feel free to

4.I Wanna Know

Lyricist:Phonte Lyshod Coleman, Matthijs Nicolay Rook

Okay, you can blame it all on me tonight
Don't wanna walk away, tonight I'll be the bigger man
You just keep on trying to push me away
But I'm not leaving, we got so far to go

(I wanna know)
You'll believe and me and keep away your pride
(I wanna know)
'Cause I can't imagine you not by my side
(I wanna know)

That you'll share with me your hopes and all your dreams
Cause baby, I love you for loving me, so glad I found you babe
So thankful for your ways, it's such a blessing
To love and be loved, in return I tried to keep myself from you

But now I finally see the truth, can't nobody love me like you
do
Every time that I think about, our love and everything we shared
I'll never leave never let you down
'Cause I know that you'll always be there

Everybody's talking about us and what they saying
They don't believe that we're gonna make it
But I still believe in you
You'll believe and me and keep away your pride

(I wanna know)
'Cause I can't imagine you not by my side
(I wanna know)
That you'll share with me your hopes and all your dreams
(I wanna know)

'Cause baby, I love you for loving me
Wanna thank you babe, for always loving me loving me
Said thank you babe, always loving me
Don't know what I'd do

(I wanna know)
You'll believe and me and keep away your pride
(I wanna know)
'Cause I can't imagine you not by my side
(I wanna know)

That you'll share with me your hopes and all your dreams
'Cause baby, I love you for loving me
Okay, you can blame it all on me tonight


5.House Of Cards

my way home Maybe there's a new day Can't stand it anymore Gotta
change these dirty ways When you dont know what to do And
there's nothing left to lose There's no one else to blame The
worst in me is you Gonna be such a long way down When you fall
gonna lay No disguise to help you hide It's the end of your
masquerade Gonna be such a long way down When you fall
to cry your gonna get yours Your house of cards is gonna fall


6.Sweeter Than You

are mine I am yours nothing more Looking for the way to Ask you
to stay here with me One more night one more day So I lay here
than you With nothing better to do I'm asking what could be
you by the hand Love so bittersweet We agreed you should leave
Trying to hold back the feeling But we both can see That its
calling me Been here a thousand times before And everytime we
swear its a mistake Shouldnt be this way This is the game we
than you


7.Valediction

shoes Usually you could stay But not today not today no This
place is no longer yours and I left your things theyre right by
the door Please don't be that way Not today not today no Our
love is such a rush But inside its slowly killing me Nothing
more for me to say But not today not today no So we must say our
goodbyes To all of the pain and the lies But nothings been more
true Then these words to you I've been changed and rearranged
and its not like it was before And when the sun shines i'll show


8.If She Breaks Your Heart

My love is gone with yesterday, my love is gone
with yesterday

We had a love for all seasons
At least that's how it used to be
There was no time, space, or reason
More special to us than we
My love continued to flourish
As a flower blooms in spring
Then you tried to play love for silly
But the loser is the fool who doesn't play
love by the rules

If she breaks your heart
I will send a robin to sing happy tunes for you
Cause I may not be around to do the things
I used to do
And if you awake to find you're lost
I will send a glad star to lead you on your way
Cause the love I felt inside
Has gone away with yesterday

My love is gone with yesterday, my love is gone
with yesterday

There was a time when forever
Was common-place for me and you
Laughing, loving, sharing, caring
Seemed to be made just for us two
But I kept on building the dream world
That I thought was you and I
Sorry, I'm sadly mistaken
Cause our castle in the sky
Has turned into a mere goodbye

If she breaks your heart
I will send a robin to sing happy tunes for you
Cause I may not be around to do the things
I used to do
And if you awake to find you're lost
I will send a glad star to lead you on your way

Cause the love I felt inside
Has gone away with yesterday

Love is gone away with yesterday


9.If This Is Love

You don't know it's a dream
You don't know if it's real life...

You don't know it's a dream
You don't know if it's real life
That's what it feels like
To you
You don't know anything
You just know that it feels right
That's when you realize
It's true

Out of touch, wasting time
My heart (oooh if this is love)
Everything I thought I knew, I lost in you
You're turning me around (oooh if this is love)

You don't wonder why
You just know to believe me
Cause I make it easy
To choose
I don't question love
I just go where you lead me
Love is so easy
To lose


Eyay, eyay, eyay
Eyay - love, eyay, eyay
Eyay - love, eyay, eyay
Eyay - love, eyay, eyay - it's love


10.Something To Behold

I'm gonna need you to sing this one in a minute...
You ready? (yeaaaaaah)
Uh! Sing to me
Yeah... Sing to me
Y'all know that feeling of love that just make you feel so warm
inside?
I swear there ain't nothing' like it y'all... ain't in
beautiful?

Love this feeling
So reminiscent of feelings before
So glad to see there's more
With you days are easier
And more alive and real
Your heart is what I'm here for

I want to call you everyday
When I ain't got shit to say
This must be love (be love... yeah)
Bring you some wings on your lunch break
Like, 'baby how's your day'?
Twelve piece, fried hard... it's all for you
It's just something inside us
Something that guides us closer to truth
This is something to behold, ooh
It feels so new loving again

I like the place you take me
A place of love & safety
Your love's all I wanna know
Darling you're such a blessing (such a blessing)
A love refreshing (So refreshing)
You're the one I've waited for (I've waited for)

I want to call you everyday
When I ain't got shit to say
This must be love (be love... yeah)
Bring you some wings on your lunch break
Like, 'baby how's your day'?
Twelve piece, fried hard... it's all for you
It's just something inside us
Something that guides us closer to truth
This is something to behold, ooh
It feels so new loving again (One more time, baby I don't think
they heard you)
It's just something inside us
Something that guides us closer to truth
This is something to behold, ooh
It feels so new loving again

Uh, Uh, Uh, Uh...
So hot you're melting
When you fall down I'll lend a helping
Hand to measure
Cause I'm your pleasure
Principle like Mr. Belding
When the bell rings
We change classes
From welter to heavyweight upgrade passes
Weekends where we resort
To all your favorite resorts
Have a couple drinks go out dancing
On the dance floor, doin' our two step
People they wonder, wanna know who the eff
Is this dude, he
Acts so cooley
I just school these niggas like UNICEF
You can do the rest
I see through your dress
Make a nigga weak in the knees
The birds & bees and the dos & don'ts
Something to behold
I know what you want... I know what you want

It's just something inside us
Something that guides us closer to truth
This is something to behold, ooh
It feels so new loving again

13.Muhsinah

Phonte
I can?t sleep at night
Cause they won?t see me
Running from the daylight
To where she keeps me and

When the sun rises she watches over me

Waiting for the daylight
Cause then she?ll keep me
In the safety of her arms
She never leaves me and

When the sunrises she watches over me (2X)

Muhsinah
He tells me all his secrets
He thinks nobody knows
We?re laid together in daylight
I love him so
And when the sunrises he watches over me (2X)

Phonte
It?s not like it was before
And she can?t keep me anymore
She loves me anymore (2X)

Muhsinah
He tells me all his secrets
He thinks nobody knows
We?re laid together in daylight

I love him so
And when the sunrises he watches over me (2X)

Phonte
She loves me (7X)

Muhsinah

And she can?t keep me anymore
She loves me anymore (2X)

Muhsinah
He tells me all his secrets
He thinks nobody knows
We?re laid together in daylight
I love him so
And when the sunrises he watches over me (2X)


14.Sincere

Lyricist:Phonte Coleman, Matthijs Rook, Dana Williams

Sometimes I feel so all alone here, people in my ear
Tryin' to destroy this love of ours we've built
I'm tired, drivin' me crazy, the things they have to say
And insecurities you know there got my mind to roam 'cause

I would never ever hurt you
Can't you see my love is sincere
See, I just want to be the one
You call when you need someone near in a hurry

Check it out, yo, the situation is ill
Went from lovin' and trustin' one another to just payin' our
bills
From holdin' hands in public to displayin' the grill
We need a resolution, yo, I'm sayin' for real

Wanna treat you with the right respect
Tryin' to play a bigger role
Than the nigga who just writes the checks
And standin' at the door, wanderin' from right to left
Tryin' to decide if it's right to step and just bail with it

For so long I feel like we tried to jail with it
And done invested to much to say the hell with it
Two thousand miles from home, tryin' to call you
To tell you 'bout the road and all the presents I bought you

But tensions in the room every time that I walk through
And every other day another argument sparks you
We don't smile no more and you ain't easy to talk to
It's funny what you makin' my heart do
We got to work it out, yo, for real

I would never ever hurt you
Can't you see my love is sincere
See, I just want to be the one
You call when you need someone near In a hurry

I'm still the one that really loves you
You call my name, boy, and I will come runnin'
Fill your need and come with healin'
So if you need me, baby, let yourself and don't delay

Check it out now, hey, you know that I don't usually start, love
But I'm sick of this amusement park, love
Up and down, situation is all bugged
I'm losin' it blowin' brain fuses and spark plugs

Layin' in bed with my arms around you
Just tryin' to make sure that no harm surrounds you
I can't pay the price of what it costs to doubt you
It's all love, baby, I'd be lost without you

I would never ever hurt you
Can't you see my love is sincere
See, I just want to be the one
You call when you need someone near in a hurry

I would never ever hurt you
Can't you see my love is sincere
See, I just want to be the one
You call when you need someone near In a hurry

Hurry, need someone, hurry
