Interlude: Morning
We had the kind of night where morning
comes too soon.
We used the light from a flickerin candle across the room
To make the kind of shadows that only one thing can make
LOVE
That's the way love goes
Like a moth to a flame
Burned by the fire
My love is blind
Can't you see my desire
That's the way love goes
Come with me don't you worry
I'm gonna make you crazy
I'll give you the time of your life
I'm gonna take you places
You've never been before and
You'll be so happy that you came
Ooh, I'm gonna take you there
That's the way love goes (x4)
Don't mind if I light candles
I like to watch us play and
baby, I've got on what you like
Come closer baby closer
Reach out and feel my body
I'm gonna give you all my love
Oh sugar, don't you hurry
You've got me here all night
Just close your eyes and hold on tight
Oh baby, don't stop, don't stop
Go deeper baby deeper
You feel so good I'm gonna cry
Oh I'm gonna take you there
That's the way
love goes (x4)Interlude: You know...
*knock knock*
You know you want me!
You want this
My girls
Goin' 'round talkin'
They say that you've been
Watchin' me boy
I know
By the way you're talkin'
That you're really tryin'
To get to me boy
Not anyone I'll just let in my heart
You have to be hungry for me
Girls may have been easy
But you have to please me
What makes me think
That I can say this to you
I know how bad you want this
If you want my future then
You better work it boy
No it won't come easy no
I know you want this
By the time I'm through with you
You'll be beggin' me for more
I know
Your whole story
Because you're fine and
And you know it
You think
That you can have me
Just listen closely
No it ain't so easy
Every word
You've said I have heard before
Girls may have been easy
But you have to please me
One thing I've been told
Nothin' else compares
To this lovin' body
If you want my future then
You better work it boy
No it won't come easy no
I know you want this
By the time I'm through with you
You'll be beggin' me for more
So you want my lovin'

By the time I'm through with you
You'll be beggin' me for more

Can you handle this
Well,come here then
Early in the mornin'
Late in the evenin'
Just about around midnight
'Cause you know I'll do you right baby
What's my name boy
'Cause you gotta say my name boy
Just a little bit louder now
Just a little bit softer now
Nice and easy
Interlude: Be a good boy...
Be a good boy and put this on...
If
Sittin' over here
Starin' in your face
With lust in my eyes
Sure don't give a damn and
Ya don't know
That I've been dreamin' of ya in my fantasy
Never once you looked at me
Don't even realize that I'm wantin' you
To fulfill my needs
Think what you want
Let your mind free
Run free to a place that no one dares to
How many nights I've laid in bed
Excited over you
I've closed my eyes and thought of us
A hundred different ways
I've gotten there so many times
I wonder how 'bout you
Day and night, night and day
All I've got to say is
If I was your girl
Oh the things I'd do to you
I'd make you call out my name
I'd ask who it belongs to
If I was your woman
The things I'd do to you
But I'm not, so I can't, then I won't
But, if I was your girl
Allow me some time to play with your mind
And you'll get there again and again
Close your eyes
And imagine my body undressed
Take your time
We've got all night
You on the rise as you're touchin' my
thighs
And let me know what you like
If you like,I'll go down
da down down down da down down
I'll hold you in my hand and baby
Your smooth and shiny feels good
Against my lips, sugar
I want you so bad
I can taste your love right now, baby
Day and night, night and day
All I've got to say is
If I was your girl
Oh the things I'd do to you
I'd make you call out my name
I'd ask who it belongs to
If I was your woman
The things I'd do to you
But I'm not, so I can't, then I won't
But,if I was your girl
If I was your girl
Oh the things I'd do to you
I'd make you call out my name
I'd ask who it belongs to
If I was your woman
The things I'd do to you
But I'm not, so I can't, then I won't
But, if I was your girl
Interlude: Back...
I'm giving you BACK!
This Time
After all I've done for you
This time I'm not gonna stay
This time I must get away
This time you've gone too far
This time I'm not gonna stay
This time you have got to pay
This time you've gone too far
You runnin' 'round
With those nasty hoes
How long did ya think I could take this
You said to me
That's the way life goes
How long did you think I could take this
I should have known
Aww you weren't for real
But my love for you kept on strong
You betta know
You gonna miss my love
Now you know that I'm not still holdin' on
That's right all of my friends say
This time I'm not gonna stay
This time I must get away
This time you've gone too far
This time I'm not gonna stay
This time you have got to pay
This time you've gone too far
You've played the game
But you played yourself
Oh boy take a look at who's sorry now
You're not the same
Aww, how you have changed
So now look at you
It's a damn shame
I don't care if I
Never ever see your face again
You broke my heart one too many times
You think that I'm
I'm just not that strong
My bags are packed
Watch me walk right through that door
This time I'm not gonna stay
This time I must get away
This time you've gone too far
This time I'm not gonna stay
This time you have got to pay
This time you've gone too far
You're dismissed!

What'll I do
What'll I do for satisfaction
Honey who'll take care of me now
If you leave I can't make it
Darlin' please don't you put me down
'Cause what'll I do for satisfaction
If you take away your heart
What'll I do for satisfaction
When that funny funny feelin's gone
Oh what'll I do
I can't take no more of missin' you
I don't know just what I'm gonna do
How can I love another
You don't know just what you mean to me
What'll I do for satisfaction
If you take away, away your heart
What'll I do for satisfaction
When my nights start to gettin' long
Oh no no no
Boy I love you
Wanna hold you
Your love's strong that's no lie
And I hate, I hate to put it down
But if you, if you leave me now
You won't want, want me hangin' around
'Cause what'll I do for satisfaction
If you take away, away your heart
What'll I do for satisfaction
When that funny feelin's gone
Oh I need you now
Interlude: The Lounge
..and the band plays...
Funky Big Band
People gather 'round
At the lennox lounge
To hear the funky sounds
The beat hits so hard
There's no cover charge
You have to feel the groove
One thing is you've
Got to be real
If you want to hear the funky big band
He who knows it feels it
Got to be real
If you want to hear the funky big band
We who know it feel it
Harlem is the place
Where you'll find the face
Of those who feel the groove
It's not taught to thee
But it's born to we
Aww and I feel the groove
One thing is you've
Got to be real
If you want to hear the funky big band
He who knows it feels it
Got to be real
If you want to hear the funky big band
We who know it feel it
Got to be real
If you want to hear the funky big band
He who knows it feels it
Got to be real
If you want to hear the funky big band
We who know it feel it
And to a world that's sick with
racism
Get well soon.
New Agenda
(opening text)
It ain't nothin' but an us thang
And it's time for us to step it up and respect
That level of sisterhood that's been holdin' up our neighborhood
And if it wasn't for our mothers
There would be no brothers
And if it wasn't for our sisters
There would be no misters
So it ain't nothin' but an us thang
She's strong and that's a fact
Now it's time for us to take up the slack
Step it up, step it up time to go to work
History hidden from me
To hide my identity
So I'd never feel
I am somebody
You've gouged my eyes
I see more clearly
You've tried to rob me of my humanity
My spirit you tried to break
My soul you tried to take
There's no need to be afraid
'Cause I won't do unto you now
Amen
All that we've been through
Our time has come to rejoice
A new agenda's due
Amen
It's time to know the truth
Our time has come rejoice
A new agenda's due
Because of my gender
I've heard "no" too many times
Because of my race
I've heard "no" too many times
But with every "no"
I grow in strength
That is why
African american woman
I stand tall with pride
You want to know what it takes
To rid yourself of me now
There's nothing you can do
Accept me for who I am now
Amen
All that we've been through
Our time has come to rejoice
A new agenda's due
Amen
It's time to know the truth
Our time has come rejoice
A new agenda's due
(rap) Time to step it up, step it up
Better check yourself
I get vexed to protect what we got
left her alone
Lookin' for your own
Here it is I know what I'm sayin'
But the klan ain't playin'at the range
Gotta step it up us to discuss a must
It ain't nothin' but an us thing
Rewind back to the time where
The color of our mother
had 'em call it a crime
Brother what in the world?
And the world says where in the black man
Support the women and children
Time to step it up, step it up
It's play off time
And the rhyme got to check, so check yourself
Amen
All that we've been through
Our time has come to rejoice
A new agenda's due
Amen
It's time to know the truth
Our time has come rejoice
A new agenda's due
Because of Love
Because of love
I know you better
Because of love
We are together
Because of love
You have my heart
Because of love
We'll never part
When I first met you
I knew that my life would never be the same
And I knew that you felt it too
I'll never feel alone again boy
'Cause your love makes me feel so secure
You got me singin'
Because of love
I know you better
Because of love
We are together
Because of love
You have my heart
Because of love
We'll never part (x2)
I don't care what people say
You're the one that brings me so much joy
When I look at your smiling eyes
My heart wants to dance
There's only you on my mind and
I never want to leave your side
It feels right so lets stay together
I'll never feel alone again boy
'Cause your love makes me feel so secure
You got me singin'
Because of love
I know you better
Because of love
We are together
Because of love
You have my heart
Because of love
We'll never part
It's 'cause of love
We've shared great memories
The way you make me feel

It's cause of love I feel so high
I don't need nobody else
Because of love
Because of love
Because of love
I know you better
Because of love
We are together
Because of love
You have my heart
Because of love
We'll never part (x2)
Again
I heard from a friend today
And she said you were in town
Suddenly the memories came back
To me in my mind
How can I be strong
I've asked myself
Time and time I've said
That I'll never fall in love with you again
A wounded heart you gave
My soul you took away
Good intentions you had many
I know you did
I come from a place that hurts
And God knows how I've cried
And I never want to return
Never fall again
Making love to you it felt so good
And oh so right
How can I be strong
I've asked myself
Time and time I've said
That I'll never fall in love with you again
So here we are alone again
Didn't think I'd come to this
And to know it all began
With just a little kiss
I've come too close to happiness
To have it swept away
Don't think I can take the pain
No never fall again
Kind of late in the game
And my heart is in your hands
Don't you stand there and then tell me
You love me
Then leave again
'Cause I'm falling in love with you again
Hold me, hold me
Don't ever let me go
Say it just one time
Say you love me
God knows I do love you again
Interlude: Another Lover
I would sooner grow old all alone
Than to ever have another lover.
Anything
Love, my love
I regret the day you went away
I was too young to understand my love
But now I realize my mistakes
Where, where are you now
Now that I'm ready to
Ready to love you the way you
Loved me then
Where are you now
Do you still think of me
Or does your heart belong to
Someone else's
Love, oh my love
Wonder sometimes were you just a dream
I sit in the dark
Wondering if our paths
Will ever cross again
Oh lord I need to know
I sit and wonder
Where, where are you now
Now that I'm ready to
Ready to love you the way you
Loved me then
Where are you now
Do you still think of me
Or does your heart belong to
Someone else's
If I close my eyes
And make a wish
When they open will you be right
Here with me
Where, where are you now
Now that I'm ready to
Ready to love you the way you
Loved me then
Where are you now
Do you still think of me
Or does your heart belong to
Someone else's
Could it be that two people
Were meant to be
In my dreams that's what I feel
Or could it be that I'll never
See you again
My love that was so true
Still I'll sit here waiting all alone
By the phone for you

Anytime, Anyplace
In the thunderin' rain
You stare into my eyes
I can feel your hands
Moving up my thighs
Skirt around my waist
Wall against my face
I can feel your lips
I don't wanna stop just because
People walkin' by are watchin' us
I don't give a damn what they think
I want you now
I don't wanna stop just because
You feel so good inside of my love
I'm not gonna stop
No no no
I want you
All I wanna say is
Any time and any place
I don't care who's around
Any time,and any place
I don't care who's around
Dancin' on the floor
Feeling the slow groove
My mind is startin' to burn
With foridden thoughts
Strangers all around
With the light down low
I was thinkin' maybe we could...well...you know
I don't wanna stop just because
People standin' 'round watchin' us
I don't give a damn what they think
I want you now
I don't wanna stop just because
You feel so good inside of my love

Whoops Now
Friday morning and all my work is done

Whoops now, sorry I can't go
Whoops now, sorry I can't go
Sorry I can't, sorry I can't go now

An extra hand at work is what he called for
He says we need you here tell your friends you're not going
Whoops now, sorry I can't go
Whoops now, sorry I can't go
Whoops now, sorry I can't go
I don't know why Jarvis called me in

I don't know why Jarvis called me.
It makes no difference if you love work or not
To dream your weekend hand on the door
Now out with your friends having fun in the sun
Now that's when the phone rings
Friday evening and I'm all alone at home
I know my friends are having fun
On the weekend I'm gonna leave the machine on
Next time he calls he'll hear my voice singing loud and clear
