Chorus
You need to give it up
Had about enough
It's not hard to see
The boy is mine
[Brandy]
I think it's time we got this straight
Let's sit and talk face to face
There is no way you could mistake him
for your man, are you insane?
[Monica]
You see I know that you may be
Just a bit jealous of me
Cause you're blind if you can't see
That his love is all in me
[Brandy]
See I tried to hesitate
I didn't want to say what he told me
He said without me he couldn't make it
Through the day, ain't that a shame
[Monica]
And maybe you misunderstood
Cause I can't see how he could
Wanna change something that's so good
Because my love was all it took
Chorus
The boy is mine
You need to give it up
Had about enough
It's not hard to see
The boy is mine
I'm sorry that you
Seem to be confused
He belongs to me
The boy is mine
[Monica]
Must you do the things you do
You keep on acting like a fool
You need to know it's me not you
But if you didn't know it, girl it's true
[Brandy]
I think that you should realize
I'm trying to understand why
He is a part of my life
I know it's killing you inside
[Monica]
You can say what you wanna say
What we have you can't take
From the truth you can't escape
I can tell the real from the fake
[Brandy]
When will you get the picture
You're the past in the future
Get away it's my time to shine
If you didn't know the boy is mine
Chorus
The boy is mine
You need to give it up
Had about enough
It's not hard to see
The boy is mine
I'm sorry that you
Seem to be confused
He belongs to me
The boy is mine
Bridge
[Monica]
You can't destroy this love I've found
Your silly games I wont't allow
The boy is mine without a doubt
You might as well throw in the towel
[Brandy]
What makes you think that he wants you
When I'm the one that brought him to
This special place in my heart
Cause he was my love roght from the start
Chorus
The boy is mine
You need to give it up
Had about enough
It's not hard to see
The boy is mine
The boy is mine
You need to give it up
Had about enough
It's not hard to see
The boy is mine
I'm sorry that you
Seem to be confused
He belongs to me
The boy is mine
You need to give it up
(not yours)
Had about enough
(not yours)
It's not hard to see
(not yours)
The boy is mine
I'm sorry that you
Seem to be confused
He belongs to me
The boy is mine
Almost made you love me
Almost mad you cry
Almost made you happy, baby
Didn't I didn't I
You almost had me thinkin'
You were turned around
But everybody knows
Almost doesn't count
Almost heard you saying
You were finally free
What was always missing for you, baby
You'd found it in me
But you can't get to heaven
Half off the ground
Everybody knows
Almost doesn't count
I can't keep on lovin' you
One foot outside the door
I hear a funny hesitation
Of a heart that's never really sure
Can't keep on tryin'
If you're looking for more
Than all that I could give you That what you came here for
Gonna find me somebody
Not afraid to let go
Want a no doubt be there kind of man
You came real close
But everytime you built me up
You only let me down
And everybody knows
Almost doesn't count
Maybe you'll be sorry
Maybe you'll be cold
Maybe you'll come runnin' back, baby
From the cruel cruel world
Almost convince me
You're gonna stick around
But everybody knows
Almost doesn't count
So maybe I'll be here
Maybe I'll see ya 'round
That's the way it goes
Almost doesn't count
Have you ever loved somebody so much
It makes you cry
Have you ever needed something so bad
You can't sleep at night
Have you ever tried the words
But they don't come out right
Have you ever, have you ever
Have you ever been in love
Been in love so bad
You'd do anything to make them understand
Have you ever had someone steal your heart away
You'd give anything to make them feel the same
Have you ever searched for words to get you in their heart
But you don't know what to say
And you don't know where to start
Have you ever loved somebody so much
It makes you cry
Have you ever needed something so bad
You can't sleep at night
Have you ever tried to find the words
But they don't come out right
Have you ever, have you ever
Have you ever found the one
You've dreamed of all your life
You'd do anything to look in their eyes
Have you finally found the one you've given your heart to
Only to find that one won't give their heart to you
Have you ever closed your eyes and
Dreamed that they were there
And all you can do is wait for that day when they will care
What do I gotta do to get you in my arms baby
What do I gotta do to get in your heart
To make you understand how I need you next to me
Gotta get you in my world
'Coz baby I can't sleep
I would like to get to know if i could be
The kind of girl that you could be down for
Cause when i look at you i feel something tell me
That your the kind of guy that i should make a move on
And if i don't let you know
Then i won't be for real i could be wrong
But i fell like something could be goin' on
The more i see you the more that it becomes so true
There ain't no other for me it's only you
I wanna be down, with what your going through
I wanna be down, I wanna be down with you
No matter the time of day or night it's true
I wanna be down!
I know anybody's gonna be lonely
Without a reason they got someone to care for
Maybe all you needs a shoulder to cry
If that's a fact than i'll be more than you ever could dream of
If all you need is my time, That i got plenty of
I'll dedicate all my love until you want me baby
I wanna stay by your side, Be there to cool you up
And let you know everything will be alright down!
