The First Lady (2005)












Goin' Out lyrics - Faith Evans (feat. Pharrell Williams, Pusha T)

I've been on the road
But now I'm back again
And this time, hah – I brought my little friend

Me and my girls are goin out tonight (OWW!!)
Me and my girls are goin out tonight (yep)
Me and my girls are goin out tonight (haha)
Me and my girls are goin out tonight (Star Trek!)
Me and my girls are goin out tonight
Me and my girls are goin out tonight (Star Trek!)
Me and my girls are goin out tonight
Me and my girls are goin out tonight (c'mon)

You mean the most, to me in this world
I've been thinking to myself a lot
You probably think it's my girls
But when you got the love
It's not like you ain't calling home
And the conclusion I came to – is baby I am going
Last night, I thought about if this should end
I should be starting a new life
So tonight, I'm hanging with my girlfriends
And I'm starting a new life

Me and my girls are goin out tonight
Me and my girls are goin out tonight
Me and my girls are goin out tonight
Me and my girls are goin out tonight
Me and my girls are goin out tonight
Me and my girls are goin out tonight
Me and my girls are goin out tonight
Me and my girls are goin out tonight

Ooooohhh
You should think about what you did wrong, if you love me
Ooooohhh
Such a pity I had to write this song
Better luck with your next girlfriend
Last night, I thought about if this should end
I should be starting a new life
So tonight, I'm hanging wit my girlfriends (we're hanging out)
And I'm starting a new life (we're hanging)

Me and my girls are goin out tonight (OWW!!)
Me and my girls are goin out tonight (yep)
Me and my girls are goin out tonight (haha)
Me and my girls are goin out tonight (Star Trek!)
Me and my girls are goin out tonight
Me and my girls are goin out tonight (Star Trek!)
Me and my girls are goin out tonight
Me and my girls are goin out tonight (c'mon)

I'm finally back at ya two years later, hiatus was Hell
300K thanks to digital scales
Uh! Eggshell whites, had them boys on my tail
The truth out, now you don't have to question what I sell
Far as the fucking flow, I'm the hottest 'round
Tap your girl ma, ask her how this sound
Condos, fast cars, that's Miami Heat
If you know they just copped Shaq, you got the floor seats
(Whachu talkin bout?) All that hair and all that wear
BAPE, BBC, Three Dots and all that there (what?)
I spent green mayne on that bling chain
Make ya scream like the silly nigga from Ying Yang (HAAH!)
As God as my witness, my fist does clenched this
Green like fist of big Grinch Stole Christmas
Re-Up time and it's the work that we bringing out
Hot off the wire, Faith tell 'em whachu thinking bout

Last night, I thought about if this should end
I should be starting a new life
So tonight, I'm hanging wit my girlfriends (we're hanging out)
And I'm starting a new life (we're hanging)

Me and my girls are goin out tonight (OWW!!)
Me and my girls are goin out tonight (yep)
Me and my girls are goin out tonight (haha)
Me and my girls are goin out tonight (Star Trek!)
Me and my girls are goin out tonight
Me and my girls are goin out tonight (Star Trek!)
Me and my girls are goin out tonight
Me and my girls are goin out tonight (c'mon)

Again lyrics - Faith Evans

Now I done felt a lot of pain
I done seen a lot of things
From struggling and broken hearts to fancy cars, ooh yeah
And even though my money change
I try my best to stay the same
But you know with more money, more problems came
But if I

If I had to do it all again (if I had to)
I wouldn't take away the rain
'Cause I know it made me who I am
If I had to do it all again
I've learned so much from my mistakes
That's how I know He's watching me
(He's watching me)

In ATL I caught a case
And the media tried to say
I had a habit
I couldn't manage
And I'm throwing my life away (ooh yeah)
But everything ain't what it seems
Just because it's on TV
'Cause they speculate and exaggerate for a better story

If I had to do it all again (had to do it)
I wouldn't take away the rain (no)
'Cause I know it made me who I am
If I had to do it all again (yeah)
I've learned so much from my mistakes
That's how I know He's watching me

Nobody knows what life may bring
It might make you happy, it might make you sad
Sometimes yeah
But I know there's a reason for everything (but I know)
That's why I keep believing
Whatever's meant to be is gonna be

If I had to do it all again (oh, if I...)
I wouldn't take away the rain
'Cause I know it make me who I am
If I had to do it all again
I've learned so much from my mistakes
That's how I know He's watching me (oh, if I...)
If I had to do it all again
I wouldn't take away the rain
'Cause I know it make me who I am
If I had to do it all again
I've learned so much from my mistakes
That's how I know He's watching me (oh yeah yeah)

I Don't Need It lyrics - Faith Evans

Lately I've been worryin'
You out there huggin' the block
And I'm here alone again
You know I'll do what it takes to hold you down
But all this lyin' to myself is startin' to stress me out

I can't complain
I know you're trying to make life better
For us (I can't complain)
But things gotta change
'Cause this ain't gonna last forever
And I can't take it 'cause I miss you so much

You say you want me to have the world
And I believe it
But if that means you're not here with me
Then I don't need it (oh no, no, no)

Now I'm not ready to trade in all my Kelly bags
And I'm not saying you should rush
And take the Bentley back
'Cause I've grown so accustom to our lifestyle
But I'll trade it all to have you around

I can't complain
I know you're trying to make life better
For us
But things gotta change
'Cause this ain't gonna last forever
And I can't take it 'cause I miss you so much

You say you want me to have the world
And I believe it
(I believe that you wanna give the world to me)
But if that means you're not here with me
Then I don't need it
(I don't need, I don't need it)

I know I never say it
But I do appreciate the things you do
(I appreciate everything)
The only thing that matters is I'd rather just be with you
(You know I'd rather be with you)
All I need is you
So you don't have to give me the world

You say you want me to have the world
And I believe it
(You know that I believe that you, yeah)
But if that means you're not here with me
Then I don't need it
(Said I don't really need it if you're not here with me)
You say you want me to have the world
And I believe it
But if that means you're not here with me
Then I don't need it

But it don't mean a thing if you're not here with me, yeah
Said I, I need you here with me

Stop N Go lyrics - Faith Evans

I knew from the start you were running game
You'd fade away like Jordan
Then you cross me over when you come back again
I'm not superwoman so I can't see what's going on in your mind
(Hmm, so I figure, 'You wanna play?', I'm willing, I got some time)
It's been so long that I strung you along
So many dates, so many hours on the phone
And I know you're getting tired of playing the game of cat and mouse
I wonder if I let you catch me, would you run your mouth?
So I'm not sure if I wanna

Stop, go
Just move slow with it or
Let, go
And enjoy the moment
Stop, go
So confusing that I
Don't, know
I feel I wanna explode

We're in the fourth quarter and I feel I wanna
But I know we oughta not
'Cause if I pass it to you
There's a chance that you might mess around and drop the rock
So you better make sure in the clutch you're the best I've ever seen
'Cause I would hate to have to trade you to another team, another team
It's been so hard playing my emotions off
Knowing that I wanna give in but too afraid to go too far
And I know you're getting tired of playing the game of hard to get
But I wonder if I let you in, would you tell your friends?
So I'm not sure if I wanna

Stop, go
Just move slow with it or
Let, go
And enjoy the moment
Stop, go
So confusing that I
Don't, know
I feel I wanna explode

My heart says yes
My mind says no
'Cause I don't know if I wanna break down and let go
My heart says yes
My mind says no
'Cause I know if I break down, I'll be wanting more
More this, more that
More time, to chat
And I'll be wanting a commitment from you and much more of your attention
That's why I'm so confused
When it comes to loving you, oh

Stop, go
Just move slow with it or
Let, go
And enjoy the moment
Stop, go
So confusing that I
Don't, know
I feel I wanna explode
Stop, go
Just move slow with it or
Let, go
And enjoy the moment
Stop, go
So confusing that I
Don't, know
I feel I wanna explode

Mesmerized lyrics - Faith Evans

Now let me holla at you for a minute
'Cause I just got somethin' that I need to say
You ever heard about that thing?
I mean that real thing?
I mean sometimes when you just can't even sleep, you can't think
You just lose yourself, wrapped all up in it
Hmm, shit, baby, you got me mesmerized
Let me sing it for you

You don't know
What you do to me
Let me tell ya
How ya make me feel
I need your lovin'
It's so good to me
I can't even sleep (Oh!)
Boy, you got me weak (yeah!)
My heart is on fire since you put that thang on me, oh
You put that thang on me, that thang, baby

Oh baby, baby, baby, baby, mesmerized
(I said 1...2...3...4 hit it, uh!)
Oh baby, baby, baby, baby, mesmerized

You got me mesmerized

Baby got me hypnotized

You got me so caught up
Baby, I'm spellbound

And I don't think I'm comin' down
Don't you know

Baby, baby, it's like ecstasy

Boy, you got me weak
My heart is on fire since you put that thang on me, oh!

Oh baby, baby, baby, baby, mesmerized
(I said 1...2...3...4 hit it, uh!)
Oh baby, baby, baby, baby mesmerized
(Baby, I'm hypnotized, yeah)

I just can't understand, I can't understand
You got me lookin' so crazy, baby
You got me lookin' so crazy right now
Make me wanna clap my hands (My hands)
Make me wanna stomp my feet (My feet)
Make me feel real, real good (Real good)
When you put that thang on me
Let me tell you now

I can't even sleep
Boy you got me weak
Your love is so sweet
Said you knock me off my feet
I can't even sleep
Boy you got me weak
Your love is so sweet
Said you knock me off my feet

Oh baby, baby, baby, baby, mesmerized

Oh baby, baby, baby, baby, mesmerized
(You've got me mesmerized
Don't know just what to do, I'm hypnotized)

Oh baby, baby, baby, baby, mesmerized

Oh baby, baby, baby, baby, mesmerized
(C'mon! Ain't it funky now!)

You got me mesmerized
I don't know what to do
Baby got me hypnotized
I think I'm in love with you
You got me so caught up
Baby, I'm spellbound
I'm floatin' on cloud nine
And I don't think I'm comin' down
Don't you

Tru Love lyrics - Faith Evans

Six years, five months
That's how long we've been having this thing we've got
Every moment hasn't been perfect
But still when it's perfect it feels
Like we're the only two people who have something real
Now three years, two weeks
That's how long we've been raising our family
And I wouldn't go trading
The love that we got
So don't go changing
I love you just the way you are

It's true love
When you say you need me
Like I need you
And you can't be without me
Like I can't be without you
It's true love
When we spend time talking on the phone
'Cause when we're not around each other
We don't wanna to be alone
It's true love, love, love, love
Don't you know it's good to be in love, love, love, love
Just believe me truthfully 'cause
Love is never ever making you cry
Before I tell you a lie
I'll give you my life
'Cause that's true love

Now when the love is right
Somehow you just know
Because you hold it tight
And you don't want to let it go
And it's so deep inside of you that
You just can't take it 'cause it fills up your heart
And you just, you can't replace it, oh no
Somebody's making love
Non-stop tonight
And they can't make enough
I know what it feels like
Grab your lover by the hand
Say that you understand
How love really works
So good that it hurts

It's true love
When you say you need me
Like I need you
And you can't be without me
Like I can't be without you
It's true love
When we spend time talking on the phone
'Cause when we're not around each other
We don't wanna to be alone
It's true love, love, love, love
Don't you know it's good to be in love, love, love, love
Just believe me truthfully cause
Love is never ever making you cry
Before I tell you a lie
I'll give you my life
'Cause that's true love

'Cause I don't need nobody but you in my life, oh baby
(Oh no no, no no no no)
Those of you that understand what I'm sayin'
Sing along with me say
'Cause I don't need nobody but you in my life, oh baby
(Oh no no, no no no no)
Those of you that understand what I'm sayin'
Sing along with me say

It's true love
When you say you need me
Like I need you
And you can't be without me
Like I can't be without you
It's true love
When we spend time talking on the phone
'Cause when we're not around each other
We don't wanna to be alone
It's true love, love, love, love
Don't you know it's good to be in love, love, love, love
Just believe me truthfully cause
Love is never ever making you cry
Before I tell you a lie
I'll give you my life
'Cause that's true love

Jealous lyrics - Faith Evans

Now let me be real with you about my feelings
The way that I deal with you, I just can't conceal it
Now I don't really mind all your female friends and all but
Just know that I'm possessive and aggressive
When it comes to you

I'm so jealous, 'til I can't help it
I'm not the type that cares to share because I'm selfish
And I'm so jealous, I can't control it
And ain't no need to lie about it 'cause I know it, ooh ooh

Now don't you get it confused, 'cause I'm not trippin'
And I know there's no substitute for what I'm givin'
But all the super friendly extra lovey dovey hugs and greetings
Make me feel like you might be out there cheating

I'm so jealous, 'til I can't help it
I'm not the type that cares to share because I'm selfish
And I'm so jealous, I can't control it
And ain't no need to lie about it 'cause I know it, ooh ooh

Every now and then I might check your Caller ID
Just to see who's calling other than me, and
Every other girl I know does the same thing too
But they don't ever say that they do, Oh

I'm so jealous, 'til I can't help it
I'm not the type that cares to share because I'm selfish
And I'm so jealous, I can't control it
And ain't no need to lie about it 'cause I know it, ooh ooh
I'm so jealous, 'til I can't help it
(I got to be real with you, I might check your pager too)
I'm not the type that cares to share because I'm selfish
And I'm so jealous, I can't control it
And ain't no need to lie about it 'cause I know it, ooh ooh

'Cause I know, oh oh yeah, yeah
Oh, and ain't no need to lie about it, no
Said I'm so

Ever Wonder lyrics - Faith Evans (feat. Mario Winans)

Lately, the vibe has been a little different, lately
But I want to understand you so much more
Open the door and then just tell me
Open up and say it, baby

Lately, I've been trying to keep my distance, crazy
It's not what I expected at first
But now I understand you gotta be a man
And now it's so clear to me, so you can keep it real with me

You ever wonder what makes a woman cry?
You ever wonder why, sometimes you make me cry
You ever wonder what makes a woman smile?
It's just the little things, you do to make me smile

Maybe, we jumped into a situation too early
But it's something that our bodies can't ignore
And now you want more
But I think I'm ready
So open up and say it, baby

Baby, not to mention that you got me feeling crazy
Every time you walk through my door
My emotions won't let me say no
And now I'm wondering if after this you'll want me more

You ever wonder what makes a woman cry?
You ever wonder why, sometimes you make me cry
You ever wonder what makes a woman smile?
It's just the little things, you do to make me smile

You see I'm feeling you, you know I'm wanting to
Put all my trust in you, 'cause ain't no guarantees

And I'm so glad you do
I feel the same way too
All we gotta do is keep communicating, baby

You ever wonder what makes a woman cry?
(Do you ever think about it, baby?)
You ever wonder why, sometimes you make me cry
You ever wonder what makes a woman smile
It's just the little things, you do to make me smile
You ever wonder what makes a woman cry?
You ever wonder why, sometimes you make me cry
You ever wonder what makes a woman smile
It's just the little things, you do to make me smile
You ever wonder what makes a woman cry
You ever wonder why, sometimes you make me cry
You ever wonder what makes a woman smile
It's just the little things, you do to make me smile

Catching Feelings lyrics - Faith Evans

Take your time, oh

If you just, relax, and take your time
You'll see in me you'll find peace of mind
Something about the way that you touch me makes me glow
In me you can confide
But the love it takes some time

Feels like you could be the one that's catchin' feelings
I know you can't help it but just slow down
Boy, you know you alright with me (you know that you're alright)
Feels like you could be the one that's catchin' feelings
I know you can't help it but just slow down
Boy, you know you alright with me (you know that you're alright)

If you weren't so young
Maybe we could be serious, oh
Infatuations killing me so mysterious
When there's no other, you'll be my lover if you play it cool
(Baby, just take it slow)
I can't fall in love with you (in love with you)
So maybe we can rendezvous (rendezvous)

Feels like you could be the one that's catchin' feelings
I know you can't help it but just slow down
Boy, you know you alright with me
Feels like you could be the one that's catchin' feelings
I know you can't help it but just slow down
Boy, you know you're alright with me

I knew you were so young
You were just a young thing and I
I just let you get a taste of my love
I let my guard down
It was only supposed to be one time
Oh but now we find ourselves
Doing it over and over and over
'Cause what we have is only physical (only physical)
I gotta give you time to let you grow

It feels good but you gotta slow down
Catching feelings
'Cause I don't wanna turn you out catching feelings
(Baby, just take it slow)
Take it slow, take it slow
Take it slow, take it slow
Take it slow, take it slow
All you gotta do (Baby, just take it slow)
Take it slow, take it slow
Take it slow, take it slow
Take it slow, take it slow
Just take it slow

Get Over You lyrics - Faith Evans

I can remember the day and time that we broke up
It was December and the holidays were coming up
I didn't expect to lose all of the time I shared with you
But now that it's gone I find myself longing for you

No doubt about it, I'm sorry for the way things worked out
If I could change it, I would change it but I don't know how
No, I can't, ain't no need to cry when I know the reason why
You chose to leave me but I still wish you were here with me

Yes, it's true, I can't get over you
No matter what I do
Even if I try I, I can't get over you

I can remember calling your phone and hanging up
'Cause I was to afraid to talk, if by chance you picked it up
But now that I done thought about it
I'd feel better if we talk about it
To let you know what's on my mind
See, I wanna try to make things right

No doubt about it, I'm sorry for the way things worked out
If I could change it, I would change it but I don't know how
No, I can't, ain't no need to cry 'cause I know the reason why
You chose to leave me but I still wish you were here with me

Yes, it's true, I can't get over you
No matter what I do
Even if I try I, I can't get over you

Lately, I've been doing some reminiscing
I'd be lying if I said that I don't miss you
What's done is done and I'm willing to leave it in the past
'Cause now I realize that it wasn't so bad

Yes, it's true, I can't get over you
No matter what I do
Even if I try I, I can't get over you
Yes, it's true, I can't get over you
No matter what I do
Even if I try I, I can't get over you

I can't get over you
I can't get over you
No, I can't get over
Done away, can't get over
Oh oh, I can't get over
Oh no, oh hey, alright, yeah, yeah yeah

Until You Came lyrics - Faith Evans

Love was just a four-letter word
Misused to entrust the heart of followers
But it never meant a damn thing to me
Until you came so unexpectedly
Then you curved my whole attitude
Got me feelin' ways that I never thought I could
See, really what I'm tryin' to say is I like what I'm feelin'
And I hope you never take it away

I never gave my heart to love
I never gave my time to love
I never even cared for love
Until you came
Baby, I never gave my heart to love
I never gave my time to love
I never even cared for love
And then you came, baby I

I can't believe you walked through my defenses
And made me smooth out my rough ends and
You got me open and I'm hopin' that this ain't no act
'Cause I don't want no parts of that
Matter fact, I really hope that you're true
'Cause I wanna invest my time in you
And all my childish dreams with all my conversations
'Cause I know that somethin' special's in the makin' I

I never gave my heart to love
I never gave my time to love
I never even cared for love
Until you came
Baby, I never gave my heart to love
I never gave my time to love
I never even cared for love
And then you came, baby I

Ooh la la la la la la
Ooh la la la la la la
La la la la la la la

Yo! Seriously though, I'm buggin'. I'm, I'm really confused
'Cause I trust you with some things you say
But with other things, I just don't trust you
But my heart says 'roll with it,' you know what I mean?
It's like I've just been going through all these emotions
And I'm dealin' with stuff I've never dealt with before
It's like you just, hmm, you got me straight trippin', boo
I don't even know what's wrong with me
But I hope you understand how I feel
'Cause I really care about you
So check this out, baby

I never gave my heart to love
I never gave my time to love
I never even cared for love
Until you came
Baby, I never gave my heart to love
(You got me going crazy)
I never gave my time to love
(I wanna be your lady)
I never even cared for love
And then you came, baby I

I never gave my heart to love
I never gave my time to love
I never even cared for love
Until you came
Baby, I never gave my heart to love
I never gave my time to love
I never even cared for love
And then you came, baby I

Hope (Remix) lyrics - Faith Evans (feat. Twista)

I wish the way I was livin' could stop
Servin' rocks, knowin' the cops is hot when I'm on the block
And I – wish my brother would've made bail
So I won't have to travel six hours to see him in jail
And I – wish that my grandmother wasn't sick
Or that we would just come up on some stacks and hit a lick (I wish)
And I – wish my homies wouldn't have to suffer
When the streets get the upper hand understand we lose a brother
And I – wish I could go deep in the zone
And lift the spirits of the world with the words within this song (I wish)
And I – wish I could teach us all to fly
Take away the pain out your hands and help you hold 'em high
And I – wish my homie Butch was still alive
And on that day of his death we had never took that ride
And I – wish that God could protect us from the wrong
So that all the soldiers that were sent overseas come home
And uh – we will never break though they devastate
We shall motivate, and we gotta pray, all we got is faith
Instead of thinkin' about who gon' die today
The Lord is gon' help you feel better so you ain't gotta cry today
Sit at the light so long
And then we gotta move straight forward 'cause we fight so strong
So when right go wrong
Just say a lil' prayer, get your money man, life goes on... (Let's go)

Oh, I'm hopeful, yes I am, hopeful for today
Take this music and use it, let it take you away
And be hopeful, hopeful, and He'll make a way
I know it ain't easy but that's okay
'Cause we hopeful

I wish that you would show some love
Instead of hatin' so much when you see some other people comin' up (I wish)
I wish I could teach the world to sing
Write some music and have them trippin' off the joy I bring
Shit – I wish that we can hold hands
Listen instead of dissin', lessons from a grown man (I wish)
And I – wish the families that lack but got love
Get some stacks, brand new shack, and a 'Lac that's on dubs
And I – wish we could keep achieving wonders
See the vision of the world through the eyes of Stevie Wonder (I wish)
You feel me – and I hope all the kids eat
And don't nobody in my family see six feet – ya dig?
I hope the mothers stand strong
You can make it whether you with him or your man's gone (I wish)
And I – wish I could give every celly some commissary
And no popo bring the heat on our peace like they did R. Kelly
And I – wish that D.O.C. could scream again
And bullets could reverse and Pac and Biggie breathe again
Shit – then one day they can speak again
I wish that we only saw good news every time we look at CNN
I wish we could never get the blues
Wish that I could bring back the people that died at E2
I wish that we could walk the path, stay doin' the right thing
Hustle hard so them kids maintain up in the game (Let's go)

Oh, I'm hopeful, yes I am, hopeful for today
Take this music and use it, let it take you away
And be hopeful, hopeful, and He'll make a way
I know it ain't easy but – that's okay
'Cause we hopeful

Wish the Earth wasn't so apocalyptic
I try to spread my message to the world the best way that I can give it
We can make it, always be optimistic
If you don't listen, gotta live my life the best way that I can live it
I pray for justice when we go to court
Wish it was all good so the country never even went to war
Why can't we kick it and just get 'em on?
And in the famous words of Mister King, 'why can't we all just get along?'
Hope we can find a better way to shop in peace
And I – hope we find a better way than coppin' ki's
And I – wish everybody would just stop and freeze
And ask – why are we fulfilling these downfalls and these prophecies?
You can be wrong if it's you doubtin'
With the faith of a mustard seed, you can move mountains
And only the Heavenly Father can ease the hurt
Just let it go and keep prayin' on your knees in church (Let's go)

Oh, I'm hopeful, yes I am, hopeful for today
Take this music and use it, let it take you away
And be hopeful, hopeful, and He'll make a way
I know it ain't easy but – that's okay
'Cause we hopeful
Oh, I'm hopeful, yes I am, hopeful for today
Take this music and use it, let it take you away
And be hopeful, hopeful, and He'll make a way
I know it ain't easy but – that's okay
'Cause we hopeful
Hopeful, oh, hopeful

Do My Thang lyrics - Faith Evans

Friday night ain't get here fast enough
Felt like forever
Now that its here I'm trying to live it up
Somebody told me this was the jumpoff
Ain't nothing better
So make room in V-I and fill up a cup with me

I've been stressed out all week long
Get out my way (Get out my way)
Don't even try calling my phone
No, not today (Not tonight)
Don't wanna argue, fuss and fight
No, that's okay (No, that's okay)
I'm tryna hit the floor and dance my blues away
Hey hey

Ain't come to hurt nobody
Just wanna do my (Do my thang)
While I'm up in this party
Just wanna do my (Do my thang)
Ain't come to hurt nobody
Just wanna do my (Do my thang)
While I'm up in this party
Gonna do my thang (Gonna do my thang)

Lil' mama stepped on my good shoes
I ain't even trippin' (That's not right)
Real divas don't stress on material things
(It's easily replaced)
Ain't nothing spoiling my good mood
(Hey, ma, what you sippin'?)
Playas, if you're buying, it's whatever
I'm chillin' (Dance)

I've been stressed out all week long
Get out my way (Get out my way)
Don't even try calling my phone
No, not today (Not tonight)
Don't wanna argue, fuss and fight
No, that's okay (That's okay)
I'm tryna hit the floor and dance my blues away
Hey hey

Ain't come to hurt nobody
Just wanna do my (Do my thang)
While I'm up in this party
Just wanna do my (Do my thang)
Ain't come to hurt nobody
Just wanna do my (Do my thang)
While I'm up in this party
Gonna do my thang (Dance)

I ain't come here for no drama (No drama)
All I want is to forget about my day
We can party all night long if you wanna
I don't care as long as I can do my thang, so

I've been stressed out all week long
Get out my way (Get out my way)
Don't even try calling my phone
No, not today (Not tonight)
Don't wanna argue, fuss and fight
No, that's okay (That's okay)
I'm tryna hit the floor and dance my blues away
Hey hey

Ain't come to hurt nobody
Just wanna do my (Do my thang)
While I'm up in this party
Just wanna do my (Do my thang)
Ain't come to hurt nobody
Just wanna do my (Do my thang)
While I'm up in this party
Gonna do my thang (Gonna do my thang)
Ain't come to hurt nobody
Just wanna do my (Do my thang)
While I'm up in this party
Just wanna do my (Do my thang)
Ain't come to hurt nobody
Just wanna do my (Do my thang)
While I'm up in this party
Gonna do my thang (Gonna do my thang)

Faithfully (2001)

Alone In This World lyrics - Faith Evans

It's over now, I can't compete
I don't know how I'm still standing on my feet
So turned around and incomplete
I'm not that happy woman that I used to be
Oh, please tell me what did you mean
When you said that you were mine, you knew that was a line
But in your heart, you know the truth
And I'm trying to forget
All the things you put me through, oh baby

I never thought you'd turn your back
And walk away from love like that
While I was holding on to you
All you did was let me go
I never thought I would regret
The way I felt when we first met
And now I'm standing here
Alone in this world, alone

It's over now, we can't go on
In my eyes I thought that you could do no wrong
It's no surprise we both belong
Because of you my heart's singing a sad song
Oh, please tell me what did you mean
When you said that you were mine, you knew that was a line
But in your heart you know the truth
And I'm trying to forget
All the things you put me through, oh baby

I never thought you'd turn your back
And walk away from love like that
While I was holding on to you
All you did was let me go
I never thought I would regret
The way I felt when we first met
And now I'm standing here
Alone in this world, alone

I can't believe our love is over now
Where did love go? (Tell me where did love go)
And why did I believe that we would be together forever
Now it's all a memory

I never thought you'd turn your back
And walk away from love like that
While I was holding on to you
All you did was let me go
I never thought I would regret
The way I felt when we first met
And now I'm standing here
Alone in this world, alone
I never thought you'd turn your back
And walk away from love like that
While I was holding on to you
All you did was let me go
I never thought I would regret
The way I felt when we first met
And now I'm standing here
Alone in this world, alone
I never thought you'd turn your back
And walk away from love like that
While I was holding on to you
All you did was let me go

You Gets No Love lyrics - Faith Evans (feat. P.Diddy & Loon)

I know it's not too ghetto
I know it's not too ghetto
I said I know it's not too ghetto
You better check yourself, respect yourself
You better go for self because I flow for self
(You gets no love from me)

I'll tell you why there's no love
Simply you're not cool enough
For what we had between us
Don't you know you lost my trust

People ask me where you've been
And I tell them we're just friends
'Cause it's so obvious that it's never gonna work for us
Oh, no (No)

Play with my emotions, you gets no devotion
And you gets no love, gets no love
You can't get no love from me
You can't even be my friend
And you gets no love again
Whatever you do it will come back to you
You gets no love from me

Tell you why we can't hook up
(You gets no love)
'Cause I had about enough
(You gets no love)
Hearing all the lies you tell
(You gets no love
Boy, I though I knew you well
...from me)

People think that you're my man (my man)
They don't even understand
(They don't even understand because)
Just because I let you get some
That don't make you the one
We ain't even in love
You know that you play

Play with my emotions, you gets no devotion
You gets no love, gets no love
You can't get no love from me
You can't even be my friend (yeah)
And you gets no love again (come on)
Said you gets no love, gets no love
(Ayo, Faith, let me talk to 'em one time, check this out)
You gets no love from me

Yo, how the situation get so raw
To the point we don't kiss no more
Things I miss, you don't miss no more
That night I met you on the disco floor
Every night since missed you more
Making hits on tour
Now when I knock, you don't answer the door
The phone ring, you don't answer no more
'Cause you ain't tryna chance it no more
Got to find me a new diva
Something pretty for P. Diddy and his two-seater

Now you could never have a piece of my love
So when you see me don't reach for no hug
And don't speak in the club
Don't tell me how you deeply in love
Other day you tried to greet me with thugs
That wanted to heat me with slugs
See the message on my beeper was bugged
Try to chill, lay deep in the cut
But you keeping it up
Even my girl think of beating you up
The way you keeping in touch
She don't know if niggas cheating or what

Boy, we had a cool relationship
But you couldn't handle it

Play with my emotions, you gets no devotion
Whatever you do it will come back to you
You can't even be my friend
And you gets no love again
Said you gets no love, gets no love, gets no love from me

Play with my emotions, you gets no devotions
Whatever you do it will come back to you
You can't even be my friend
And you gets no love again
You gets no love from me

Burnin' Up lyrics - Faith Evans (feat. Loon)

Burning up! My heart is like burnin up!
Burning up! My heart is like burnin up!
Burning up! My heart is like burnin up!
Burning up! My heart is like burnin up!

Sometimes you can be in love and having fun
And still not know what's going on (No)
Or on the other hand you separate
Thinking that the feeling's gone
(Talking)
Feels like forever when were together
I knew that we are destiny
So here's the last chance for the last dance
For us to bring back the dream

So baby come and rescue me (I'm burnin up!)
I got some fire for you to see (I'm burnin up!)
Baby come and take me there (I'm burnin up!)
Trust me you should (Hurry up!)
Baby I'm just (burnin up! burnin up!)

Yeah, uh, now check it out
And what you need I could offer, by any means I support ya
Neglecting your needs would be torture
Things that I taught ya, like blowing (FIRE!!!) in the porche
And doing high speed is what I taught ya
A straight gentlemen, born with a ape adrenaline
Girl you gotta have Faith I'm sizzling
Hot, when I drop numbers like New Kids On The Block
Them like who that kid in the drop
Emergency, cause shorty hot to the third degree
How many [?] wanna swerve with me?
Refrain from serve indeed, the game never heard of me
I got something for you herbs to see
So why, even run away been put the gun away
Sign with Bad Boy first hit with Dunaway
And Neptune track hot like summer days
This wet Loon block hot now one away

In the midnight hour, wait a minute
I can be in a lonely place
Then along you come with the sweetest thing to say
And put the sun in my day, I really wish you would

Rescue me (I'm burnin up!)
I got some fire for you to see (I'm burnin up!)
Baby come and take me there (I'm burnin up!)
Trust me you should (Hurry up!) Baby I'm just (burnin up!)
Trust me you should (Hurry up!) Baby I'm just (burnin up!)

Burning up! My heart is like burnin up!
Burning up! My heart is like burnin up!
Burning up! My heart is like burnin up!
Burning up! My heart is like burnin up!

I Love You lyrics - Faith Evans

My heart belongs to you
So what could I do
To make you feel I'm down with
You see me hangin' around
But you don't know how you make me feel for you, and

(Each and every day) I try to make some sense of this
(What you mean to me) I know it could be serious
(Each and every night) I dream about just holding you
(Loving you like this) what is a girl supposed to do?

I love you (I love you)
I want you (I want you)
You're the one that I live for
And I can't take it anymore (anymore)
I love you (I love you)
I need you (and I need you)
What can I do to make you see
You're the only one for me

First time I saw your face
My heart just erased
All the guys I knew
Before you walked into my life
I was the type to never want for nothing

(Each and every day) I try to make some sense of this
(What you mean to me) I know it could be serious
(Each and every night) I dream about just holding you
(Loving you like this) What is a girl supposed to do?

I love you (I love you)
I want you (I need you)
You're the one that I live for
And I can't take it anymore
I love you (I love you)
I need you (need you)
What can I do to make you see
You're the only one for me

I love you, I want you, I need you in my life
Can't you see what you mean to me?
Baby, come hold me tight
I miss you, wanna kiss you
Every time I see your face
Baby, I'll be waiting for you
Each and every day

I love you (oh...)
I want you
You're the one that I live for
And I can't take it anymore
(Baby, you know that I love you)
I love you
I need you
What can I do to make you see
(Do to make you see)
You're the only one for me (oh yeah)

You're the only one for me (only one)
And I know it's meant to be
(And I know we're meant to be)
What can I do to make you see
My love will carry on (listen to my heart)
So listen to my heart and know (and know)
You'll find out where my love will go (love will go)
The future lies between us both
Oh babe, I love you so

I love you
I want you
(And you know my heart belongs to you, boy)
You're the one that I live for
And I can't take it anymore
I love you (baby, I love you)
I need you (baby, I need you)
What can I do to make you see
You're the only one for me
I love you (you're the one for me)
I want you (it was meant to be)
You're the one that I live for
And I can't take it anymore
I love you
I need you
What can I do to make you see
You're the only one for me
I love you (baby, I love you)
I want you (baby, I need you)

Everything (Interlude) lyrics - Faith Evans

I was lost but now
I've found the greatest
Love that's saved me from
The fall so glad you
Came around to see
What's best for you
Is me, boy, you make me feel so right (so right)

Loving you gives me the will to carry on
You're my everything
Nothing's gonna stop us now
Baby, you're my everything

Back To Love lyrics - Faith Evans

You remind me of, of a love I once new before
I was so open for love, so in love with no experience
But I like this feeling, you're really bringing back the memories
Of someone I once knew, I feel you bring it all back to me

Bring me back to love
'Cause real love is what I'm thinking of
(What I'm thinking of)
It would be so nice if we could runaway (runaway)...runaway

It was hard to see, all the wrong my last love did to me
I was just a fool in love
That's not how it was supposed to be
But I like this feeling, and I don't want you to remind me of
Of someone I once knew
Just keep on bringing me back to love, oh baby, yeah

Bring me back to love
'Cause real love is what I'm thinking of
(That's what I'm thinking of)
It would be so nice if we could runaway
(If we could runaway) runaway

You make me feel so good
You treat me like I'm special, baby
So take me back to love
'Cause that is where I wanna be

It's so good it's plain to see
The way that you keep loving me
Bringing back the memories
Of a love that used to be
Said it's so good it's plain to see
That way that you keep loving me
Bringing back the memories
Of a love that used to be

Bring me back to love
'Cause real love is what I'm thinking of
(That's what I'm thinking of)
It would be so nice if we could runaway
(If we could runaway) runaway

Bring me back to love
'Cause real love is what I'm thinking of
(Real love is what I'm thinking of)
It would be so nice if we could runaway
(Yeah) runaway

Bring me back to love
'Cause real love is what I'm thinking of
(Would be so nice, baby)
It would be so nice if we could runaway
(If we could runaway) runaway

Bring me back to love
'Cause real love is what I'm thinking of
It would be so nice if we could runaway...runaway

Faithful (Interlude) lyrics - Faith Evans

Faithful to the end
She's a lover and a friend, ooh, faithful
Faithful to the end
Ooh, and with this, I know you can win, just stay faithful
Faithful 'to the end

Faithful to the end
Yeah, I like that

Do Your Time lyrics - Faith Evans

It's been a long time
And I hope you're doing fine
I just wanted to write you a letter
Saying 'hi' and explaining why
Why you mean so much to me
Well, the reason is plain, you see
You were always there when I needed you
And I wanted to let you know

You've gotta be strong
And it won't be long
'Cause I'm gonna do
All your time with you
I promise you I can and I will do
Your time with you
I'm gonna do your time with you
No matter what I gotta do

I always did believe
That our love would be
Stronger than the bars you were behind
And my heart always seems to find
Find a reason to hold on
And a purpose to be strong
Baby, can't you see that I need you
And I know that you need me, too

You've gotta be strong
And it won't be long
'Cause I'm gonna do
All your time with you
Promise you I can and I will do
Your time with you
I'm gonna do your time with you
No matter what I gotta do

You've gotta be strong
And it won't be long
'Cause I'm gonna do
All your time with you
Promise you I can and I will do
Your time with you
I'm gonna do your time with you
No matter what I gotta do

And I'm writing with sincerity, yeah
Just to make you understand what you mean to me
And I can't wait 'til you come home
But I need you to be strong, baby, hold on
Hold on, 'cause I'm down for you, baby, yeah yeah
You know I'm gonna do, I'll do your time with you
I'm gonna do your time with you
Baby, I'm down with you
No matter what I gotta do

You've gotta be strong
And it won't be long
'Cause I'm gonna do
All your time with you
Promise you I can and I will do
Your time with you
I'm gonna do your time with you
No matter what I gotta do
You've gotta be strong
And it won't be long
'Cause I'm gonna do
All your time with you
Promise you I can and I will do
Your time with you
I'm gonna do your time with you
No matter what I gotta do

Don't Cry lyrics - Faith Evans

Take just one look around me
Tell me what you see
Your reflection and a brokenhearted memory
I tried so hard to do the best I could
You lied and now we've got to get this understood

Don't cry, don't call me
I don't want you around me
Who are you to judge me?
I'm only what you made me

You should have took advantage
Of every waking moment
But you thought you had time to waste
And you were so dead wrong, mmm-hmm
I tried so hard to do the best I could
You lied and now we've got to get this understood

Don't cry, don't call me
I don't want you around me
Who are you to judge me?
I'm only what you made me
Don't cry, don't call me
I don't want you around me
Who are you to judge me?
I'm only what you made me

I don't wanna see your tears
I don't wanna hear your voice
Don't you know you made the choice
Boy, you did me so wrong

Don't cry, don't call me
I don't want you around me
Who are you to judge me?
I'm only what you made me
Don't cry, don't call me
I don't want you around me
Who are you to judge me?
I'm only what you made me

And a brokenhearted memory
Don't wanna see you, don't wanna hear you
You did me wrong, leave me alone
Baby, I tried so hard to do the best I could
But you lied and now we've got to get this understood
Don't even think about calling me
'Cause I don't wanna

Faithfully lyrics - Faith Evans

Nothing could compare to your love
I wake up feeling good every day
I used to have a problem with love
Until you rode direct in my way

Faithfully (faithfully)
You love me, you're just what I need
Please don't change
Everyone can see that you love me faithfully

Some say love is just a word
But I know what it really means
A future and stability is what
That is what you've given to me, baby

Even though we've had many arguments (many arguments)
This is stronger than any love has ever been
(Stronger, oh yeah)
Baby, through it all you've been there for me
And I love you just because you love faithfully

Faithfully (baby, faithfully)
You love me, you're just what I need
Please don't change (don't change, don't change)
Everyone can see that you love me faithfully
(Loving me so faithfully)
Faithfully (baby, nothing could compare to...)
You love me, you're just what I need
(...your love, your love)
Please don't change
Everyone can see that you love me faithfully

Don't ever change, I just won't be the same
If you take your love away
I don't ever wanna think about you not being in my life
Because you love me so faithfully

Faithfully (faithfully, you love me)
You love me, you're just what I need (oh, I love you)
Please don't change (don't change)
Everyone can see that you love me faithfully
(You love me faithfully)
Faithfully
(Used to have a problem with love...)
You love me, you're just what I need

You love me, you're just what I need
('Cause you love me faithfully)
Please don't change (don't take your love away)
Everyone can see that you love me faithfully

Brand New Man lyrics - Faith Evans

She never had respect for me
She knew I had a family
But I blame it all on you
She used to be a friend to me
And now I can't stand to see
Her when she comes around
See, both of y'all let me down
And now it's all over town
How could you do me that way? Oh baby

Now that I got me a brand new man
You can't even understand
She's been wondering where we stand
I ain't got time, you can have that man
Now that I got me a brand new home
I don't have to be alone
Got somebody who understands
I got a brand new man

See, everything was cool with us
But you took advantage of my trust
You crossed my faith in you, yes you did
He used to belong to me, how silly could you both be
I knew it all the time, yeah yeah yeah yeah
I never thought you would do those things you did
Are you even concerned what I told the kids?
(What I told the kids? Because I cried; yes, I cried, baby)
Now it don't matter 'cause baby I'm over you
Can't forgive you for the stress you put me through
But what goes around comes right back around again, yeah

Now that I got me a brand new man
You can't even understand
She's been wondering where we stand
I ain't got time you can have that man
Now that I got me a brand new home
I don't have to be alone
Got somebody who understands
I got a brand new man

If you ever been hurt, keep your head up
If you been hurt, keep your head up, you'll find love
If you ever been hurt, keep your head up
If you been hurt, keep your head up, keep it up
If you ever been hurt, keep your head up
If you been hurt, keep your head up, you'll find love
If you ever been hurt, keep your head up
If you been hurt, keep your head up, keep it up
If you ever been hurt, keep your head up
If you been hurt, keep your head up, you'll find love
If you ever been hurt, keep your head up
If you been hurt, keep your head up, keep it up
If you ever been hurt, keep your head up
If you been hurt, keep your head up, you'll find love
If you ever been hurt, keep your head up
If you been hurt, keep your head up, keep it up

Ghetto (Interlude) lyrics - Faith Evans

Ah, yes, one time for your mind
That's right, Bad Boy, y'all
Pedigree, y'all, Brick City

Where We Stand lyrics - Faith Evans

Is it too soon to love you?
Why do I believe it's perfect?
Could it be I'm scared to take the chance?
Thinkin' we are movin' fast
And I don't know where we stand
I don't know where we stand

Today you said some things to me
That made it plain for me to see
And now I do believe
That there's a chance for you and me
Elated I would be
If it became reality
I'll put away my fear
'Cause only fate has brought us here

Is it too soon to love you?
(When I just met you the other day)
Why do I believe it's perfect?
(Inspired by all the things you say)
Could it be I'm scared to take the chance?
Thinking we are moving fast?
And I don't know where we stand
I don't know where we stand

It's just a few days but I'm open wide
Or maybe I should take my time
I'm thinking that we're movin' fast but I want you bad
My mind is telling me one thing (one thing)
But my body says another...I wanna be your lover
I wanna know

Is it too soon to love you?
(Oh, when I just met you the other day)
Why do I believe it's perfect?
(Inspired by all the things you say)
Could it be I'm scared to take the chance?
Thinking we are moving fast?
And I don't know where we stand
I don't know where we stand

It's hard to figure out
(In the back of my mind there's so much doubt)
Why do I look for clues?
(When there's no reason to question you
It's only natural, I just gotta wait and see
Will we ever prosper? Will we ever be?)
Tell me is it too soon to love you
When I just met you the other day, baby
Could it be that I'm scared to take a chance
'Cause I don't know where we stand?

Is it too soon to love you?
(When I just met you the other day)
Why do I believe it's perfect?
(Inspired by all the things you say)
Could it be I'm scared to take the chance?
Thinking we are moving fast?
And I don't know where we stand
I don't know where we stand
Is it too soon to love you?
(Tell me, baby)
Why do I believe it's perfect?
(I believe it, yeah yeah yeah yeah)
Could it be I'm scared to take the chance?
Thinking we are moving fast?
And I don't know where we stand
I don't know where we stand

Heaven Only Knows lyrics - Faith Evans

Who knows what tomorrow brings
And heaven only knows what's on the other side of the rainbow
All I know is what the seasons bring
And even with the seasons come uncertainty

Who knows? (Who knows?)
Do you know? (Do you know?)
I don't know (I don't know)

Heaven only knows what the future holds
Heaven only knows what's over the rainbow
Just imagine all the possibilities
Heaven only knows what the future holds

God gave me a conscious heart
And my responsibility is to teach my people
Trying to make them understand
Your will, your perfect plan

Who knows? (Who knows?)
Do you know? (Do you know?)
I don't know (I don't know)

Heaven only knows what the future holds
(God only knows)
Heaven only knows what's over the rainbow
Just imagine all the possibilities
(If we come together, we can change it)
Heaven only knows what the future holds
(Take it one day at a time)
Heaven only knows what the future holds
(Live your life and you'll be fine)
Heaven only knows what's over the rainbow
Just imagine all the possibilities
Heaven only knows what the future holds
(Oh, Heaven only knows)

We can't live for tomorrow
So make the best out of today
We gotta keep the faith
If we just keep that faith through the night
We'll be alright

Heaven only knows what the future holds
Heaven only knows what's over the rainbow
Just imagine all the possibilities
(Can you imagine all the possibilities?)
Heaven only knows what the future holds
Heaven only knows what the future holds
Heaven only knows what's over the rainbow
(Take it one day at a time)
Just imagine all the possibilities
(Live your life and you'll be fine)
Heaven only knows what the future holds
Heaven only knows what the future holds
Heaven only knows what's over the rainbow
Just imagine all the possibilities
Heaven only knows what the future holds

Love Can't Hide lyrics - Faith Evans

Tears on my pillow keep falling
And I'm crying over you, crying over you
How long will the time last before my heart
Is blessed to see the day I'm back with you
The day I'm back with you
See, I'm yearning for you, baby, constantly I'm reminiscing
Always think bout the things we used to do, oh yeah
And I'm singing, baby

Bop ba da, bop ba da, bop ba da
Love can't hide
Bop ba da, bop ba da, bop ba da
The pain inside

Am I wrong for love that's been lost and found
Looking for someone to make the claim, oh tell me
Why am I an example of heart turned cold
Looking for someone to take the blame
Won't nobody take it for me, baby?
Reflections of your silhouette at the corners of my bed
I try to close my eyes and go to sleep
Still I see you in my dreams, yeah baby
I'm singing

Bop ba da, bop ba da, bop ba da
Love can't hide
Bop ba da, bop ba da, bop ba da
The pain inside
Bop ba da, bop ba da, bop ba da
Love can't hide
Bop ba da, bop ba da, bop ba da
Oh

Are my dreams of love a mirage of paradise?
As the weeks turn to months
And so many sleepless nights
For the day I pray my tears are wiped away
You'll hold me in your loving arms always
And I'm singing, baby

Bop ba da, bop ba da, bop ba da
Love can't hide
Bop ba da, bop ba da, bop ba da
The pain inside
Bop ba da, bop ba da, bop ba da
Love can't hide
Bop ba da, bop ba da, bop ba da
The pain inside

Can you tell me, are my dreams of love a mirage of paradise?
As the weeks turn to months
And so many sleepless nights
For the day I pray my tears will wipe away
You'll hold me in your loving arms always
I'm telling you love can't hide

Bop ba da, bop ba da, bop ba da
Love can't hide
Bop ba da, bop ba da, bop ba da
The pain inside
Bop ba da, bop ba da, bop ba da
Love can't hide
Bop ba da, bop ba da, bop ba da
The pain inside
Bop ba da, bop ba da, bop ba da
Love can't hide
Bop ba da, bop ba da, bop ba da
The pain inside
Bop ba da, bop ba da, bop ba da
Love can't hide
Bop ba da, bop ba da, bop ba da
The pain inside
Bop ba da, bop ba da, bop ba da
Love can't hide

Can't Believe lyrics - Faith Evans (feat. Carl Thomas)

I always dreamed that everything would be okay
With me and you, but I was wrong
When I looked into your eyes, I didn't see all the things
I used to see, what's going on?

You gave me reasons to believe
That we were always meant to be
But now I see, you were wrong
You can't keep running back to me
With all those baby, baby pleases, no more, no more
(Never imagined...)

Never imagined you would be a faded picture
I'm emotional (I'm emotional)
It's so believing, your deceiving, it's official
I'm emotional (so emotional)

I can't forget that night I saw you in the corner
Wrapped up tight, you were warm
Slow dancing on the floor while I was watching
From the door so hurt, there you were
You gave me reasons to believe
That we were always meant to be
But now I see, you were wrong
You can't keep running back to me
With all those baby, baby pleases no more, no more

Never imagined you would be
A faded picture
I'm emotional (I'm emotional)
It's so believing, your deceiving, it's official
I'm emotional

You had your chance (had your chance)
But you threw it all away (yes, you did)
Thought you had my love always
Oh baby, I don't understand
How you think that we could stay
In total unhappiness (unhappiness)

Never imagined you would be a faded picture
I'm emotional (I'm emotional)
It's so believing, your deceiving, it's official
I'm emotional (it's official, I'm emotional)

Never imagined you would be a faded picture
(No more baby, baby, please)
I'm emotional (you threw it all away)
It's so believing, your deceiving, it's official
I'm emotional (it's official)

Never imagined you would be a faded picture
I'm emotional
(Just a faded picture, faded picture) (gotta leave you, baby)
It's so believing, your deceiving, it's official
I'm emotional (baby, could you hear me, oh)

Never imagined you would be a faded picture
I'm emotional
It's so believing, your deceiving, it's official
I'm emotional (it's official, I'm emotional)

Never imagined you would be a faded picture
I'm emotional (never imagined, oh)
It's so believing, your deceiving, it's official
I'm emotional

Yes, I'm looking at the front door, baby, whoa
So, so, so very emotional
Baby, I'm emotional

Love Song (Interlude) lyrics - Faith Evans

This is a love love song
This is a love love song, ooh ooh
This is a love love song
And I'm singing it for you
(Singing it for you)
You baby, yeah
That's what it is
A love, la-la-la-love song
That's what it is
Nothing but a simple little love song
(Singing it for you)
And I want to sing it for you, baby (singing it for you)
Singing it for you
Singing a love song
Singing a love song
Singing a love song
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Love...love song

Keep The Faith (1998)




















Faith (Intro) lyrics - Faith Evans

(Faith) Faith is the substance of the things
Things hoped for
It is evidence of things not seen
Don't you know I
I have the faith
To conquer anything
Keep the faith

Love Like This lyrics - Faith Evans

I never knew there was a love like this before
Never had someone to show me a love
Love like this before

Now that we have come to be
A brand new life I can't see
Never thought you'd be a special part of me
No, baby
The reasons are because of you
I can go on and make it through
I can't even take my mind off lovin' you
And I wanna say

Never had someone to show me a love (Ooh)
Love like this before

I know you can't see
All the things you mean to me

Yeah yeah, yeah yeah
If we can work together
Maybe this could last forever
This is something that I wanna hold on to
So baby, try to understand

Baby, try to understand
I'll be crazy if you leave (Crazy)
'Cause you compliment my style (Ooh)
And I like the way you walk, and the sexy things you talk
(The way you walk, the way you talk)
You don't know just what you do to me
You see I never (Oh, never)

I never (Never) knew there was a love like this before

Love like this before
I never knew there was a love like this before
(A love like this before)
Never had someone to show me a love
Love like this before

All Night Long lyrics - Faith Evans (feat. Puff Daddy)

I like this right here, yeah
Bad Boy, and we won't stop
Faith, '99

We can dance, dance, dance
Clap your hands, hands, hands
All night, if you're in the mood
Do what you wanna do
All night long

Happy days are here
So leave your cares behind
Just relax your mind
It's so easy to do it

Just enjoy yourself
If the feeling's right
Get your groove on tonight
Take your time tonight
Everything's all right
Ain't nothing but a party

Get up on the floor
Don't worry 'bout a thing
The rhythm's got you now
So come on, get into it

Just enjoy yourself
If the feeling's right
Get your groove on tonight
Take your time tonight
Everything's all right
Ain't nothing but a party

Have a good time
Lay back, relax
Just free your mind
Let the music take control of you

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
If it's a hot then I must've did it
If it's not then I wasn't with it
Bad Boy stay committed
Whether hip-hop or R&B
Featuring Faith Evans, co-starring me, P. Diddy
You know I got the key to your city
Unlock the door, rock some more
Beats we lace
Bad Boy heat the place
We run R&B too cuz we keep the faith
Givin the streets a taste
Blaze the charts

I remember

In case you forgot
First Lady B making it hot
Ain't nobody taking the spot
Now it's Faith instead of pain
Coming through with a better grain
In the dash, cell phone better range
Get the cash, and stock paper for the whole four quarters
Damn, some things never change
Can ya feel me? Ya feel me? Let's make 'em dance
Let's go

Have a good time
Lay back, relax
Just free your mind
Let the music take control of you

Sunny Days lyrics - Faith Evans

You turn the rain into sunny days
You take the clouds away
Baby, you're the one
I feel like heaven's a step away
He sent an angel my way
Baby, you're the one

I remember when
I used to be afraid to love again
But now I realize
That you're the one who brings the sun
You turn

You turn the rain into sunny days
You take the clouds away
Baby, you're the one
I feel like heaven's a step away
(Feel like heaven's just a step...)
He sent an angel my way
Baby, you're the one

Something real I can feel
I was searching for
I didn't wanna hurt no more
Then you came, made a change
Since you came and made it right
I can love you all my days

You turn the rain into sunny days
You take the clouds away
Baby, you're the one
I feel like heaven's a step away
He sent an angel my way
Baby, you're the one

Can you tell me where would I be?
What would I do if I hadn't found you?
Though I've been in love before
You can be compared to none
'Cause you really bring the sun

You turn the rain into sunny days
You take the clouds away
Baby, you're the one
I feel like heaven's a step away
He sent an angel my way
Baby, you're the one

Baby, I always try to hide
To hide the way that I feel for you
But I can't lie
That you're the one for me
You bring me ecstasy

You turn the rain into sunny days
You take the clouds away
Baby, you're the one
I feel like heaven's a step away
He sent an angel my way
Baby, you're the one

You turn the rain into sunny days
You take the clouds away
Baby, you're the one
I feel like heaven's a step away
He sent an angel my way
Baby, you're the one

Sunshine in my life
No more stormy days
Sunshine in my life
No more stormy days
Sunshine in my life
No more stormy days

Tears Away (Interlude) lyrics - Faith Evans

All away
Wipe all my
All away
My tears away
You wipe
Yes you do
You wipe them all away
You wipe all
All away
All of my tears away
You wipe my tears all away
All alway
You came in my life
All away
And wiped my tears away
You wiped
You wiped them all away
Oh, how I love you
All away
And oh, how I need you
You wipe my tears all away
All away
Oh yeah
All away
Don't ever go away
You wiped
You wiped them all away
'Cause you wiped them all away

My First Love lyrics - Faith Evans

Why does it hurt so bad?
Why does it feel so sad?

To fall in love was something that my heart was dreaming of
And then there came the day when I found you
Then heaven came to earth and you were my angel
I fell in love with you
No one but you
And suddenly I saw the change that came into your eyes
I feel you were afraid to tell me why
I thought this thing called love would be forever
I thought our love was true
And now the pain of losing you

If you never know just what you mean
You are my first love
If you never know
You're everything
You are my first love

Tell me how a thing that brings such joy can bring such pain
And how could something so wrong seem so right
We never had the chance to make it get better
We never said goodbye, no
I never wanna feel the pain of losing love again
'Cause love just has a way of breaking down
Next time I'm gonna pray that things will be better
The second time around
So here's to love that's lost and found, oh oh

I won't cry, no, I won't break down
Even though inside it hurts so bad
Next time I will make love last (yes I will)
Though you will always have a place in my heart

If you never know just what you mean
You are my first love
If you never know
You're everything
You are my first love
If you never know just what you mean
You are my first love
If you never know
You're everything
You are my first love

I won't cry, no, I won't break down
(I'm not gonna break down)
Even though inside it hurts so bad
Next time I will make love last
Though you will always have a place in my heart

My first love, no one could ever take your place, no, no
My first love, no one could ever take your place, no, no

If you never know just what you mean
You are my first love
If you never know
You're everything
You are my first love
If you never know just what you mean
You are my first love
If you never know
You're everything
You are my first love

Anything You Need lyrics - Faith Evans

I'm so glad that you came and found me
Don't have to cry 'cause it's all right
I'm so glad that you came and found me
Anything you need, you know I'll be much obliged

The time has come to let you know
Just what I'm feeling
I'm feeling in my soul
I never wanted, no, to fall so deep for you
But now you've got me completely in love
But if you wanna know

If you wanna now, then I will have to show
To show you what I'm feeling, baby, feeling in my heart
Never be afraid, you can count on me
'Cause I'll protect you
I'll respect you
I'll always be around

I'm so glad that you came and found me
Don't have to cry 'cause it's all right
I'm so glad that you came and found me
Anything you need, you know I'll be much obliged

Please don't be alarmed by my hesitation
To notice your charm
I wasn't too optimistic about it at first
But now I'm so, so very glad

I'm so glad that you came and found me
Don't have to cry 'cause it's all right
I'm so glad that you came and found me
Anything you need, you know I'll be much obliged

People say that love can be unkind
It can tear your heart to pieces
And shake you up inside
But I don't worry about tomorrow
'Cause I believe in the power of love
Break it down

Thinking about you
Can't live without you
Anything that you need
Baby, you can count on me
Thinking about you
Can't live without you
Anything that you need
Baby, you can count on me
Thinking about you
Can't live without you
Anything that you need
Baby, you can count on me
Thinking about you
Can't live without you
Anything that you need
Baby, you can count on me
Thinking about you
Can't live without you
Anything that you need
Baby, you can count on me
Thinking about you
Can't live without you
Anything that you need
Baby, you can count on me
Thinking about you
Can't live without you
Anything that you need
Baby, you can count on me
