The First Ten Years

Vanessa Williams The First Ten Years Lyrics
1.The Right Stuff

I was standing at 7:15
waiting front for my baby's car
Just then out step of the limousine
that's why is going far
I've got my mind made up
I don't wanna leave here
Baby 'cause it's near to me
That's just too tough to find another lover like mine
with the right stuff
*The right stuff,baby
I don't wanna miss out of those right stuff
Woo,with Mr.right
say it na na hey hey*
I just found about a week ago
His friend calls me on the phone
He said I live in Paris
I know you must be all alone
Well...it'll take more than a fancy trip
to show me to the limousine
'Cause I ain't ever seen who can give love like this
the other fairs can't compare
repeat*
he's the only one to give all the love
'Cause other than him, there's no other one
He's very sensitive, oh, so sweet
He knocks me off feet
Sings it again, na na yeah yeah
I mean the right stuff
Righ stuff
say na na na na
Right stuff


2.Dreamin'

I'm living in the middle of a dream
A dream with a little of fantacy
Dreamin' dreamin' dreamin'
For the life of me I never thought that it coule be
The enmotion is running high
Every night I wish that I could tell you how I feel
those words are here in my heart
but there is just one missing part
*How to put it together
How th say it right and let you know that every night
I'll be dreamin' dreamin' hoping baby you'll be there
I'll be dreaming dreaming hoping baby you'll be there*
Let me take time out to try and find out
if this will be real
'Cause this really scares me
I've been living in a fantacy
How should I feel these words are here in my heart
but there is just one missing part
repeat*
Those words are here in my heart but there is just one missing
part
How to put it together. How to say it right
Ane let you know every night
I'll be dreaming dreaming hoping baby you'll be there
I'll be dreaming dreaming hoping baby you'll be there
I keep on dreaming every night
I'mm dreaming about you every night
I'm living in the middle of a dream
A dream with a little of fantacy
I'm living in the middle of a dream
A dream with a little of fantacy 'till I make you mine
I'm living in the middle of a dream
A dream with a little of fantacy 'till I make you mine


3.Running Back to You

Let's go boy, you've been wondering around too long
I think you'll need another time
No more jumping in and out of my bed
It's time for me to draw the line
You can all me the one, the only one
You can run around having fun
Just come back no more
You can have the fantacy just in bed with me
You can try more time
*Baby, dont expect me to come running back
Running back to you
And you'll think of all the love I've given to you
Running back to you
And I'll find someone. Someone else to give it to
I won't come running back
I won't come running back*
Boy,don't you see it's too late
I won't play a fool not this time
I show you just how wrong you are
I just can'y get you out of my mind
You can just play me off
You can just run around
Come for more in another fantacy
Gottabe one me if you ditch me again
repeat*
You cvan ditch me if you wanna ditch me
Go when you wanna just tell me lies when you wanna
I won't come running back come running
Get the message:Nothing


4.Comfort Zone

When do you go when there is a need to be loved
I like the need to be loved
I'll let you know what to do and when to come
*Welcome to the comfort zone
When you need to be loved like you need to be
Welcome to the comfort zone
Do whatever you feel rightand touch your heart*
It's hot day at work
This one needed to be certain now, this so familiar
It's not unusual to find that sentual hope
It's all you need to let go
You all need to find no compromise
A same woman outside of my love
Thing to do when you get through
Here a message seek the comfort of my zone
When you need to be loved like you need to be
repeat*
No one has to know. Chech this out, ya ya
repeat*x2
No one ever has to go or tell you off
Let me make the comfort zone
Let me take control
Let us turn the light staying slong and hope the rest to all
I'll be there for you


5.Save The Best for Last

Sometimes the snow comes down in June
Sometimes the sun goes around the moon
I see the passion in your eyes
Sometimes it's all a big surprise
'Cause there was a time when all I did was wish
you'd tell me this was love
It's not the way I hoped or how I planned
but somehow it's enough
And now we are standing face to face
Isn't this world a crazy place
Just when I thought our chance had passed
You go and save the best for last
All of the nights you came to me
When some silly girl had set you free
You wondered how you make it through
I wondered what was wrong with you
'Cause how could you give your love to someone else
And shared your dreams with me
Sometimes the very thing you're looking for
is the one thing you can't see
But now we are standing face to face
Isn't this world a crazy place
Just when I though our chance had passed
You go and save the best for last
Sometimes the very thing you're looking for
is the one thing you can't see
Sometimes the snow comes down in June
Sometimes the sun goes around the moon
Just when I though our chance had passed
You go and save the best for last
You went and save the best for last


6.The Sweetest Days

You and I in this moment holding the night so close
Hanging on, still unbroken while outside the thunder rolls
Listen now, you can hear our heartbeat
warm against life's bitter cold
These are the days. The sweetest days we'll know
There times that scare me
We rattle the house like the wind
Both of us so unbending
we battle the fear within
All the while, life is rushing by us
Hold it now and don't let go
These are the days. The sweetest days we'll know
So we'll whisper a dream here in the darkness
watching the stars 'till they're gone
And when even the memories have all faded away
These days go on and on
Listen now, you can hear our heartbeat
Hold me now and don't let go
These are the days.
Everyday is the sweetest day we'll now
These are the days.
The sweetest days we'll know


7.Betcha Never

I saw you with a girl last night
The both of you were making eyes
You did it right in front of my face
as if I had no pride
And now you're always working late
You never have much time for me
And you're expecting me to believe
that you're not out with she
Tonight I'll give you my surprise
I hope that you won't mind
I'll giving you an eye for eye
Baby, I've found another and he is my lover
And I'm going out for the rest of your life
*I betcha never thought I'd go that far
I betcha never thought I'd break your heart
I betcha never even thought at all
I betcha never, no you never*x2
I know that everybody lies, that I know I can't deny
But what if they're intentional, the intentional of your crime
'Cause I know how much that I can take
I know my heart demands a change
If I can't have my way, then all I have to say
Tonight I'll give you my surprise
In returns for all the lies
I'm giving you an eye for an eye
Baby, I've found another and he is my lover
And we're going away for the rest of your life
repeat* utill the end


8.Open Your Eyes, You Can Fly

Change, put a period in your life
and make a fresh star
Exercise your mind
Open your heart think of all the things you might want to do
Throw away your old clothes
Let make you dress up in something new
Focus on your future. Stop turning to look back
Pack your bag. Board on a train traveling on a different track
Don't be afraid to make a chance
to make a different turn
Just imagine all those lay ahead
The opportunities to know
Stand out the front and pick up the pace smooth and wrinkle
Put a smile on your face.
Never be afraid to love
Never be afraid to just be
Just catch away a train of doubt
Have a hope to be free
See only what you want to see
Just duplicate the simply truth
Have the courage to be free
Open your eyes. You can fly
Open your eyes. You can fly
You can fly never be afraid to love
Never to be afraid to just be
Catch away a train of doubt
Have the courage to be free
Open your eyes. You can fly
Open your eyes. You can fly


9.Oh, How The Years Go By

In our times of trouble, we only had ourselves
Nobody else
No one was there to save us
We had to save ourselves
And when the storms came through, they found me and you
back together
And when the sun would shine, it was yours and mine
Yours and mine forever
*Oh how the years go by
Oh how the love brings tears to my eyes
All through the changes, the soul never dies
We fight, we laugh, we cry
As the years go by*
There were times we stumbles
They thought they had us down. We came around
How we rolleda and rambles
We got lost and we got found
Now we're back on solid ground
We took everything all our times would bring
In this world of danger
'Cause when your heart is strong
You know you're nor alone in this world of damger
repeat*
If we lose our way, any night or day
Well, we'll always be
I'm there for you and I know you're there for me
As the years go by
You know you're not aalone in this world of danger
repeat*x2


10.Love Is

You said it's a river circles the earth
A beam of light shinin' to the edge of the universe
It conquers us all. It changes everthing
They say it's a blessing. They say it's a gift
They say it's a miracle. I believe that it is
It conquers us all but it's a mystery
CHORUS1
*Love breaks your heart
Love takes no less than everything
Love makes it hard
And it fades away so easily*
In this world we created.
In this place that we live.
In the blink of an eye, babe, the darkness seta in.
Love lights the world. Unites the love is for eternity
CHORUS2
*Love breaks the trains.
Love aches for everyone of us
Love takes the tears and the pain
And turns it into the beauty that remains
Look at the place, it was paradise but now it's dying
I'll break the love. I'll take my chances that it's not too late
CHORUS1,2


11.Colors of The Wind

Lyrics:Stephen Schwartz
Music:Allan Menken

You think you own whatever land you land on
The earth is just a dead thing you can claim
But I know every rock and tree and creature
has a life, has a spirit, has a name

You think the only people who are people
Are the people who look and think like you.
But if you walk a footstep of a stranger
You'll learn things you never knew you never knew

Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned?
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?

Come run hidden pine trails of the forest
Come taste the sun-sweet berries of the earth
Come roll in all the riches all around you
And for once, never wonder what they're worth

The rainstorm and the river are my brothers
The heron and the other are my friends
And we're all connected to each other
In a circle, in a hoop that never ends

Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
Or let the eagle tell you where he's been
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?

How high does the sycamore grow?
If you cut it down , then you'll never know
And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
For whether we are white or copper-skinned
We need to sing with all the voices of mountain
Need to paint with all the colors of the wind
You can own the earth and still
All you'll own is earth until
you can paint with all the colors of the wind


12.Where Do We Go From Here

Life can be strange
Somethings we forget or we'll arrange in time
We lose paste
Tell me the truth.
Tell me how can I know that this new love of us.
That's gonna last.
I need your strength and I feel your warmth
You'll feel all the protect from all harm
*Where do we go from here, it's clear
You'll erase the fear in me that keeps me alone
Where do we go From here? I know
No matter what the roads, your love will lead me home.*
What's in the maze? Is life just the game?
We called it in any ratee that we lose face
Haw many lives. Tell me how many tries before we get it right
The truth is inside
I need your strength and I feel your warmth
You'll feel all the protect from all harm
repeat*
When I felt weak, so weak, to stand to speak
When I felt alone, so lone, to help me
You were there for me
repear*


13.My Flame

Woo, how long.
How long have you been away
Woo, how long
How long can't find the words to say

*Keep your picture on my shelves
Only there to remind myself
I have always care for you. Do you still love me
My flame, somethings will ever change
Still hold your vision in my mind
Say you'll still love me.
My flame, somethings will ever change
Still hold your vision in my mind
Say you'll still love me. Say you'll still love me.*

My love will I ever make you see.
Oh, somehow you're still the part of me.
Maybe we can compromise
'Canse our love just not disguided
I've always care for you. Do you still love me

My flame, somethings will ever change
Still hold your vision in my mind
Say you'll still love me.
My flame, somethings will ever change
Still hold your vision in my mind
Say you'll still love me. Say you'll still love me
repeat*2
