album: Only human
album: So Close
Lying here
All alone in the shadows
I believe when I sleep
All the pain's gonna fade away
I can dream, can't I
When I close my eyes
Kiss the world goodbye
I dream I'm escaping
To a land far away
Through the night time
There's a secret place
Where no one can hurt you
Desert you
No one hurts you
That's why I'm escaping
chorus
Oh it's hard to say goodbye
Knowing that when I try
Try to forget you
Love brings reality home
I keep my heart upon the shelf
Hiding inside myself
What am I doing
No use in fading
When love is forsaken
It's so hard escaping your love
There's a love
Made for me waiting out there
When that day comes along
I'll be strong, I will make it through
I can dream, can't I
When I close my eyes
Will the tears run dry
This time I'm escaping
chorus
Didn't think that I'd meet somebody
Who loves me like you do
Didn't think I'd ever love somebody
The way that I love you
chorus
It;'s getting late
Another argument lies unresolved
I blame you
Though I know that it was my fault too
I still love you
What am I supposed to do
And now the silence
Hurts more than words would ever do
chorus
Sorrow wells in my eyes
Does this mean goodbye
Please don't take your love away
I'm only human
Time presses on
Who'll break the silence of this cold still room
Those last few words
Cut so deep, I just can't speak
I'd like to kiss you
Break this silence with my lips
But pride is stronger
With unseen arms it holds me
chorus
As we embrace
I wonder if we'll make another year
That sounds so harsh
But I've always been a realist
You once told me
Don't give yourself away
And now they are my words
I carry them with me each and every day
chorus
It; was only today
I noticed the way
I'm denying the signs
You've been giving
Took somebody to say
They noticed the change
You're what my life
Has been missing
And I won't let go
'Cos tonight I will give everything
chorus
Give me the right
To make love to you tonight
And I'll let tomorrow morning
Take its time
'Cos love ain't gonna
Let us wait tonight, no no
Let's not talk anymore
No words can explain
The way that we
Both know we're feeling
So what more can I say
I want you to stay
Your love is all
I believe in
And we won't say no
To a night that will bring everything
chorus
Oh now we're alone
And love's found a home
We both need tonight
So there's no more to say
At the end of the day
Just come to me baby
You're what my heart
Has been missing
chorus
Don't make me wait
So here I am
Baby close the door
'Cos what I've got to say
Won't take all night long
You have got to know
It was no more than a kiss
That tempted me from your arms
It was feelings of neglect
Led to feelings of regret
That tore this love apart
My love
chorus
If you're willing to forgive
You just let me know
And I won't let the world come between us
When you're ready to forget
You just tell me so
And I won't let the world come between us
No, no
So here's what I'm saying
Just give it one more try
Don't you take me for granted
And I will never, never have to lie
You have got to know
There was nothing in that kiss
That could have stolen my heart
So don't let your foolish pride
Be the one that must decide
That I can't be in your arms
My love
chorus
If only we had been talking
We would be loving
Not crying over yesterday
So, baby, don't walk away
chorus
::Love Will Bring You Back To Me
Feels like a lifetime away
When I heard you say
I love you
And it doesn't feel quite the same
Going through the day
Without your loving arms to ease the pain
I would surely go insane
But I know we're gonna be with love again
chorus
Though you may be far away
And I have is yesterday
I can't stop the world from turning
Only you can stop the hurting
Though you may be far away
Time and space will not erase
The look of pain upon your face
Said everything you could not say
I know as sure as I breathe
Love will always bring you back to me
If I had to fall in love again
I wouldn't hesitate
If it was with you
But love's story had to go and change
One thing remains
I will never be in love this way again
You know my heart's with you
Even when I can't be next to you
chorus
I knew life would never be the same
Though my nights are long
I keep holding on
Sometimes I feel just like a child again
When I;ve lost control
Yet I know
That as sure as I breathe
Love will always bring you back to me
chorus
You mean more to me than anything
I swear to God you know that it's true
You showed me how love could be so beautiful
I can't conceive the thought of living through
One night without you here
Asleep next to me
I've always known inside I was the lucky one
To have the right to call you my own
To find someone who understands the give and take
It just don't come easy in this world
But now I sit alone
Just wondering if I've thrown it all away
chorus
I didn't mean to hurt you baby
I didn't mean to let you down
No, I didn't mean the things I said or did
No way, no how
I didn't mean to disappoint you
I didn't mean to tell you lies
No, I didn't mean to hurt you baby
And I won't forgive myself
Till I make it alright
Gonna make it alright
How could I have ever been so foolish
When you put so much faith in me
I feel the shame, I feel the pain of hurting you
I can't hold my head up to anyone
I hope I have not lost
The only thing, the only thing I ever loved
chorus
Gonna make it alright......
But now I sit alone
Just wondering if I've thrown it all away
chorus
Alright now baby
I'm gonna make it alright, baby, yeah
No, no, no, no
You mean more than anything
I can't conceive the thought of losing you
Just for me......
Well I've been moving my bootie all week long
To the rhythm of the working week
Been spending every last dime on design
So I look good enough to eat
'Cos I'll be doing my thing
My thing for you baby
I'll be moving my thing
I can be anything I want to be
Welcome to my fantasy
Tonight I'll be
chorus
Living for the weekend
When I can unchain my life
Living for the weekend
It's time to liberate my mind
Well I've been painting my face
For when I enter that place, I want to make a scene
As I walk around, look around, what do I see
I see you, boy, looking at me
'Cos I'll be doing my thing
My thing for you baby
I'll be moving my thing
The night is young and so are you
Walk into my fantasy
Tonight I'll be
chorus
I know the DJ's playing that song
And he's playing it just for me
As I'm working that stage like a Broadway play
Uh ah......
'Cos I'll be doing my thing
My thing for you baby
I'll be moving my thing
Can you feel this energy
Coming from inside of me
Tonight we'll be
Living for the weekend
You know I'm living for the weekend......
Mind
I want your mind to feed me with the knowledge
Of how to love you
When to love you
And where you want to be loved
Let your mind go
Enlighten me to your thoughts, dreams and fantasies
Body
Your body is an extension of desire and love
I want your body to make love
Express love
Re-create love exclusively to me
Soul
The soul is the breath of life
That comes from the flow of all things
Belonging to your soul is a sweet, sweet dream
Sweet, sweet dream
Mind, body and soul
Out of nowhere
You appear on the scene
I can see you
Like a cool summer breeze
I can feel you
Your eyes burning into me
I knew right away
It was obvious to see
You and I were falling for love
We define chemistry
I know one night is just
Not enough for me
chorus
I want your mind, body and soul
I ain't taking second best
Don't you give me any less
I want your mind, body and soul
If you satisfy this need
I will love unselfishly
With my mind, body and soul
Mind, body and soul
Can you feel me
Feel the warmth of my embrace
Can you hear me
Though no words have taken place
What I'm saying
You already know
If you are saying yes
There's no way I'm saying no
To you and I falling for love
Though love holds no guarantees
We have everything we need
So make love to me
chorus
With your mind, body and soul
I ain't taking second best
Don't you give me any less
Than your mind, body and soul
If you satisfy this need
I will love unselfishly
With my mind, body and soul
I want your mind, mind, mind
I want your body
I want your soul......
You and I were falling for love
We define chemistry
I know one night is just
Not enough for me
chorus
I want it, you've got it
You've got to give it to me.......
No one ever said life would be easy
There are days when I paint on a smile
Yet the good time appear when you're with me
Yet you mean so much more in my life
I need your love more than anything
You are my one peace of mind
When I can't deal with my reality
I feel I can't get by
chorus
That's when I run to you
When I'm feeling kind of lonely
And I need someone to hold me
Then I run to you
When I need your love to guide me
Need your strength to stand beside me
Then I run, oh I run
People may break my heart and deceive me
But with you, that is not what I fear
You're the truth when my world has no meaning
And I hope that you'll always be here
I need you love more than anything
You're the sweetest part of my life
In your arms is where I want to be
When I feel I can't get by
chorus
I need your love more than anything
You are my one peace of mind
When I can't deal with my reality
I feel I can't get by
chorus
Sometime I feel so afraid
As I wake up in my normal way
Although it looks like any other day
The rain may be falling on my window pane
But there's no pain
Just the thought of you again
And I need to re-evaluate inside
The reasons why you're always on my mind
What am I to do
chorus
Now you're in my life
Could it be I love you in my life
And if I dare to say
I hate the way that I miss him
When he isn't near
Tell me
Do you think I'm in love
I start to think of crazy things to say
For all the reasons I should feel this way
To deny what you're giving I must be insane
Yet my doubts remain
I don't want to be hurt, hurt again
Yet I'm weakening to your love all the time
The need to analyse and question why
Slowly fades away
chorus
Could it be, could it be, could it be
That I want you right here in my life
Could it be, could it be, could it be
That I love the way you need me
If this ain't living
If this ain't true
I'm a fool
In love with you
chorus
::I Don't Want To Talk About It
Can you tell by my eyes
That I've probably been crying forever
And the stars in the sky
Don't mean nothing to me
They're a mirror
chorus
I don't want to talk about it
How you broke my heart
But if I stay here just a little bit longer
If I stay here, won't you listen
To my heart, oh my heart
To my heart
If I, if I stand all alone
Will the shadows hide the colour of my heart
Blue for the tears
Black for the night fears
Stars in the sky
Don't mean nothing to me
They're a mirror
chorus
Ring out the old
Bring in the new
A midnight wish
To share with you
Your lips are warm
My head is light
Were we in love
Before tonight
I don't need a crowded ballroom
Everything I want is here
If you're with me
Next year will be the perfect year
No need to hear
The music play
Your eyes say all
There is to say
The stars can fade
And they can shine
Long as your face
Is next to mine
I don't need a crowded ballroom
Everything I need is here
If you're with me
Next year will be the perfect year
We don't need a crowded ballroom
Everything we need is here
If you're with me
Next year will be the perfect year
It's new year's eve
And hopes are high
Dance one year in
Kiss one goodbye
Another chance
Another start
So many dreams
To tease the heart
We don't need a crowded ballroom
Everything we need is here
And face to face
We will embrace the perfect year
We don't need a crowded ballroom
Everything we need is here
So face to face
We shall embrace the perfect year
The perfect year
Dreaming......
Only you, only me
In a room with the crowd
Only they could not see
You undressed me
With those eyes
They revealed
It's a matter of time
Here in my mind
I could feel you kiss me
I closed my eyes
And you appeared
chorus
I had a dream
That we had made it in love
Oh what can I need
That I can't get enough
I had a dream
That you were giving to me
The kind of love that I need
chorus
I see you, you see me
We believe in a world
Only lovers can see
How you hold me
With your charms
So surreal
When I'm there in your arms
You on my mind
Got to feel you near me tonight
In my mind you reappear
chorus
Dreaming
Dreaming now you're loving me
Here in my mind
I could feel you kiss me
And I, I closed my eyes
And you appeared
chorus
chorus
You were meant for me
No one else could come between
This love I know
'Cos I'll never let you go
You and me, it seems
Never have a problem
We can't overcome
'Cos you'll always be the one
Never thought I'd be so happy
Loving you has made me feel so fine
I can see my friends turn green with envy
Every time I tell them I'm so glad you're mine
chorus
Never did one thing to hurt me
You always understood my way
If I could, I'd stay right here beside you
With your hand in mine, making love all day
You were meant for me
No one else could come between
This love I know
'Cos I'll never let you go
You were meant for me......
Remember the days that we first met
How you drove me crazy
But I always knew that we'd connect
It was meant to be
And I, I know that we've got something special
In my heart I know that we
We belong together
All the possibilities
Just as long as we're together
There is nothing that we can't do
There's no door that we can't open
As long as it's me and you 'cos
chorus
We've got a special kind of love
We've got a special kind of love
You make me happy whenever I'm blue
I can count on you
To groove me and release my frustration
And turn my bad into something good
You give love incredible, so special
Is the love we share, and we
We belong together
All the possibilities
They say nothing lasts forever
But we've got it going on
We'll hold on through stormy weather
With a love so strong 'cos
chorus
You know, you know, you know that
chorus
You make me happy......
You know you make me happy when I'm blue
chorus
See that brother on the street
He's doing fine
Yet all the people that he sees
They're all so blind
'Cos he's got his problems
Yes he's got his own cross to bear
Like so many others in life
Do they really care
chorus
Gotta live your life the way you choose
Learn from the changes you go through
And hold on
Deal with the problems that you find
It'll get better the more you try
To hold on
See me walking down the street
I'm doing fine
Yet all the people that I meet
They think they know my mind
But I've got my problems
Yes I've got my own price to pay
Like so many others
I'm still trying to find my own way
chorus
We've all got our problems
We've all got our own price to pay
chorus
Lonely, you on my mind
How could I let you go
All that we've been through
I still need you next to me
I said so many things
I did not mean to say
And although we tried to talk
The words, they got in the way
Now that I realise
I need you with me
I've got to find a way to make you see
chorus
This time, it could be forever
This time, it could be so complete
It's time for us to be together
Now I know what you mean to me
Now that I understand
Through all this loneliness
I need no other man
So here I am, I'm still needing you
As you were leaving
I knew I was to blame
But I'm not gonna beg you
To come back and stay
So make up your mind now
'Cos it's all up to you
Yes, we owe it to ourselves to see this through
chorus
No one could hold me
No one could have told me
That I would be feeling this way
The day's getting longer
The feeling is stronger
Put an end to this pain right away
chorus
Oh what I fool I must have been
To lose the love that you were giving me
chorus
I'm still wanting you, needing you
Missing you, feeling you in my dreams
Are you still wanting me, needing me
Missing me, feeling me in your dreams
'Cos the day you come back to me
That's how it's gonna be, just you and me
Just you and me
This time, it's gonna be, it's gonna be you and me
This time, I want it to be so complete
This time, this time it has to be together
Oh baby, it's gonna be, it's gonna be, it's gonna be......
Why should I hide
The way that you're making me feel inside
You're giving me signs that I can't deny
When I look at you
I've looked at love now
But love never showed me the way
But I look at you in a way
That I just can't explain
chorus
See I'm falling
And there's nothing I can do
Said I'm falling
And it's all because of you
Yes, I'm falling
And no matter how I try
There is not a day
That I can keep you from my mind
It's not that
I was looking for someone to share my life
I thought it would be such a waste of time
Until I found you
We'll I've realised
That I just can't disguise how I feel
So don't be surprised
When I look in your eyes and reveal
chorus
Don't tell me that you know
The way that I feel
Stop playing these games with my heart
Tell me that you're for real
chorus
I know about all your faults
Somehow they never deter me
And there are times when we talk
You really know how to soothe me
There are times I look at you
And I realise that you need me too
But after all is said and done
There's nothing sweeter
chorus
So close to you
(Is where I wanna be, you and me)
And it feels so good
So close to you
(Is where I wanna be, you and me)
And it feels so good
So close to you
Feels so good
Sometimes you say that I'm cold
Don't ever think that you'll lose me
I'll never tire of your hold
'Cos you know just how to move me
Well, you're aware as I am too
That there's good and bad in the things we do
But after all is said and done
There's nothing sweeter
chorus
I just can't control
How I feel about you
And I'm so surprised
With the way I act
When you're around
I know they never see
All the things that I see
They don't understand
Just what it is
That we have found
Well I don't care what they say
I've made up my mind anyway
'Cos you've got the love that I need
And I wouldn't change it for anything
chorus
There ain't no man
Makes me feel like you do
There ain't no man
Ain't no doubt
There ain't no man
Makes me feel like you do
There ain't no man
That I've ever found
I simply love the times
That we spend together
And I love the things
That you say to me
When we're alone
There isn't any doubt
In the way I'm feeling
And I hope the way
That I'm feeling now
Will never go
Well I don't care what they say
I've made up my mind anyway
'Cos you've got the love that I need
And I wouldn't change it for anything
chorus
I'm always there
When you walk in
And you never have to speak
'Cos your body's talking
I felt the heat
I could never tell my mama
Just what I felt
So ease your mind
And just let your inner feelings show
Let's make the time
And just let your inhibitions flow
chorus
You've gotta
Do what you wanna
See who you wanna
Be who you wanna be
Dance when you wanna
Talk when you wanna
Be what you wanna be
Do what you wanna
With who you wanna
Whenever you feel the need
I love the way you're vibing me
So let yourself be free
Express
Watching you stare
Gets me thinking
That if I don't make a move
Sometime this evening
I'm gonna lose
All all things that momma told me
I should never do
So ease your mind
And just let your inner feelings show
Let's make the time
And just let your inhibitions flow
chorus
There may be times
When you're drinking
When your mouth doesn't always say
What your body's thinking
But it feels oh so good
Like you know it should
So ease your mind
And just let your inner feelings show
Let's make the time
And just let your inhibitions flow
chorus
There are days I get so tired of
being me
There are days I just can't face reality
And dealing with people that I just don't want to see
Gets me thinking about you and me
In my mind I dream of how I want to be
That's not the way I keep my sanity
'Cos given time I know eventually
I will find peace of mind
chorus
(Your love) It's all I need from you
(Your love) It's what takes me through
(Mine) Yes, you're mine
(Mine) Well, yes, you're mine
Heaven must have sent you to me
There are days I just can't find the energy
It seems so hard to find a little harmony
You give the strength, you give it right back to me
When I need to get by
I don't have to question the things that you do
There's never a doubt in my mind about you
You're the one choice I've made in my life
I'm so satisfied, I'm so satisfied
I know I've got you and that you'll see me through
chorus
Don't think I don't know
'Cos you came along
You made me so strong
Showed me how sweet life can be
chorus
You'll never know
All the pain
That I was feeling
You'll never see
All the tears
That I've cried
My heart was bleeding
I need a reason
You never told me to my face
An explanation
As to why you never, never, never, never
chorus
Gimme you love, gimme your love, gimme your love
Tell me 'cos I need the truth
What is it I've done
You never gimme your love, gimme your love, gimme your love
You will never know what you have done to me
You never told me
That you would be leaving
I realised half the time
It was me you were deceiving
What were the reasons
Why you never said goodbye
Just implications
As to why you never, never, never, never
chorus
What were the reasons
Why you never said goodbye
Just implications
As to why you never, never, never, never
chorus
I shouldn't really be alone with you
tonight
Desire was too strong to put up a fight
I don't understand the way I feel
Although it feels so right
I really shouldn't be here tonight
In your eyes there's a sign of intensity
I sense an atmosphere
No need to hide from the way that you feel inside
There's nothing left to fear
chorus
If only for tonight
Don't be a stranger
I want to take a chance
Risk it all for you
Is knowing what I'm gonna do
If only for tonight
Don't be a stranger
I want it all from you tonight
You're on my mind all of the time
I really shouldn't stay with you tonight
But the more and more I think of it
The more it just seems right
That's why I want to be here tonight
Now I find I don't know who I really am
I'm lost without a trace
Take me high, take me low, anyhow you know
And help me if you can
chorus
Why I don't know
I'm in too deep to say no
Hold me close
Don't let me go
I want to take this chance
Risk it all for you
Is what I'm gonna do
chorus
There's never a day you're not on my
mind
There isn't a tear that I have not cried, haven't cried
You told me that you would be leaving me
You said you'd be going this time
The thought of you gone forever
Never, never crossed my mind
chorus
Why did I let you go
How could I have been so wrong
Why did I let you go
And how could I be so wrong
I may have mistreated you sometime
But you can't tell me the fault's all mine, all mine
Those empty words that you hurt me with
Still run through my mind
But that won't change that I
That I feel inside
chorus
You told me that you would be leaving me
You said you'd be going this time
The thought of you gone forever
It never, never crossed my mind
chorus
I wonder if they see
How I fall apart
When I hear your name
It only takes the thought of you
To make me realise
That I can't disguise
What you really mean
You're every little part of me
Didn't think that I'd meet somebody
Who loves me like you do
Didn't think I'd ever love somebody
The way that I love you
chorus
'Cos if I knew you then
Like I know you now
I would have loved you
Without a doubt
If I knew you then
Like I know you now
I would have loved you
Like I love you now
Like I love you now
Oh I just can't believe
That it took so long
For me to see
It's you that makes me so complete
When we're lying here
And I feel that
You are so close to me
I know that you are all I need
Now I know that there ain't nobody
Who loves me like you do
Now I know I'll never love somebody
The way that I love you
chorus
Didn't think that I'd meet somebody
Who loves me like you do
Didn't think I'd ever love somebody
The way that I love you
chorus
I convinced myself
I wasn't in search of love
It was something I'd only need a little of
To get by on my own
Would be easy to do
Then I found it was easy being loved by you
Now I know that I can feel this way
Nothing can wipe this smile off my face
It was put there with love
And nothing can take its place
chorus
Here's where you love me
Here's what we've found
Here's where we wanna be
With nobody else around
Here's where you kissed me
And left me with a smile
Here's what you give to me
Right here, right now
Realistic with love
Is what I am just because
I was never a fool to want to fall in love
That was easy to say
Until I met you
'Cos no man's loved me the way you do
Now I know that I'm feeling this way
And I'm keeping a smile on my face
Now I know I'm in love
Nothing can take its place
chorus
I'm looking at life
In a whole different way
You give me good reason
For feeling this way
And I wake up knowing every day
You free my soul
Do you know you free my soul
chorus
