"Never Keeping Secrets"


I never meant to lie to you
But I needed me an easy way out
I couldn't face the truth with you
Because I didn't want to lose my clout
I always have been good to you
Girl I promise you that nothing has changed
Momentary insanity
Must be the reason why I did you that way

So now I'm telling everybody
That I know I was a fool
To take a chance of losing
And girl I can't take losing you

So I'm
Never keeping secrets
And I'm never telling lies
I wanna make it up to you
No I'm
Never keeping secrets
Girl I swear it's all behind
I only wanna be with you

I didn't want to lie to you
But I didn't want to let you down
It never did occur to me
Sooner or later that you would find out
You know how much I care for you
And I would never want to cause you pain
I know that there is no excuse
How could I ever treat my baby that way

That's why I'm telling everybody
That I know I was a fool
But I don't give a damn about it
'Cause I wanna get back wit you

[HOOK]

If you wanna go
I want you to know
Girl that I understand it
But I don't recommened it
'Cause I love you more
I know you can't ignore
That I will die for you
And lay down my life for you
Girl I wanna see
You standing next to me
Girl I apologize
For each and every lie
I want you to be
The only one for me
Forever and ever and ever and ever and ever

[HOOK]

When Can I See You Again


When can my heart beat again
When does the pain ever end
When do the tears stop from running over
When does “you'll get over it” begin
I hear what you're saying
But I swear that it's not making sense
So when can I see you

When can I see you again
When can my heart beat again
When can I see you again
When can I breathe once again
And when can I see you

When does my "someday" begin
When I'll find someone again
And what if I still am not truly over
What am I supposed to do then, babe...
Do you see what I'm saying
Even if, if it's not making sense
So when can I see you

When can I see you again
When can my heart beat again
When can I see you again
And when can I breathe once again
And when can I see you... again

Yeah, baby
Do you see what I'm saying
Even if, if it's not making sense, baby
So when can I see you again

When can I see you again
Can my heart beat again, baby
When can I see you again
And when can I breathe once again
And when can I see, babe, again

Wanna see you again
Again...

My Kinda Girl


First, there is no doubt
Not for a minute
You've always been my heart's
Number one and number and two
Girl, you were right there
And I won't forget it
By my side for all those nights
I had to hold on to you

If there's one thing that I know
Girl, you are my heart and soul
When I needed love indeed
You were always there for me

And I'll make love stay
'Til my dying day
And it really makes me feel good
Just to say

After all that we've been through
It's so nice to know someone like you
Still cares for me, baby
'Cause you're my kinda lady
And no matter what I do
I promise that I'll keep on
Loving you, pretty baby
'Cause you're my kinda lady

You're my kinda girl

Now I know
That nothin' could separate us
You'll always be my girl
I will always be your man
We go as far
As love's gonna take us
To the room of love we'll zoom
Long as we're hand in hand

If there's one thing that I know
Girl, I'll always love you so
When I needed love to be
You were always there for me

And I'll make love stay
'Til my dying day
And it really makes me feel good
Just to say

And I can't stop thinkin'
'Bout the way I feel
Girl, you are the only one
That gives me chills
And I can't stop lover

Ooh I start to lose it, girl
Whenever we touch

Every Time I Close My Eyes


Girl, its been a long, long time comin
But i, I know that its been worth the wait
It feels like springtime in winter
It feels like christmas in june
It feels like heaven has opened up its gates for me and you

And every time I close my eyes
I thank the lord that Ive got you
And youve got me too
And every time I think of it
I pinch myself cause
I dont believe its true
That someone like you
Loves me too

Girl, I think that youre truly somethin
And youre, youre every bit of a dream come true
With you baby, it never rains and its no wonder
The sun always shines when Im near you
Its just a blessing that I have found somebody like you

Hook

To think of all the nights
Ive cried myself to sleep
You really oughtta know
How much you mean to me
Its only right that you be in my life right here with me
Oh baby, baby

 How Come, How Long


There was a girl I used to know
She was oh so beautiful
But shes not here anymore
She had a college degree
Smart as anyone could be
She had so much to live for
But she fell in love
With the wrong kinda man
He abused her love and treated her so bad
There was not enough education in her world
That could save the life of this little girl

How come, how long
Its not right, its so wrong
Do we let it just go on
Turn our backs and carry on
Wake up, for its too late
Right now, we cant wait
She wont have a second try
Open up your hearts
As well as your eyes

She tried to give a cry for help
She even blamed things on herself
But no one came to her aid
Nothing was wrong as far as we could tell
Thats what wed like to tell ourselves
But no, it wasnt that way
So she fell in love
With the wrong kinda man
And she paid with her life
For loving that man
So we cannot ignore
We must look for the signs
And maybe next time
We might save somebodys life

Hook

I on occasion met that guy
He stirred up bad feelings deep inside
Something about him wasnt right
The way he proves himself a man
By beatin his woman with his hands
Oh I wish shed seen the light
How can someone like that
Call himself a man
In reality hes far more less than that
And we cannot ignore
Whenever we see the signs
cause any kinda of abuse
God knows isnt right

I Said I Love You



Baby Come To Me
I will chase your tears away
Put your trust in me
Girl I swear I'll never change
Darling you will see
That my love is here to stay
I promise you, I will be true
From here and now, forever girl I

I said I love you
I said I care
When I tell you I love you
It means I always will be there
I'll never leave you
I ain't goin' nowhere
When I tell you I love you
Cross my heart I will be there

Open up your heart
Don't be afraid to love again
We can take it slow
You should know I understand
Baby take your time
And I don't care how long it takes
'Cause I promise you, I'm here for you
From here and now, forever girl I

HOOK

And I will be there
(And I will be there for you)
Forever sincere to you
(Girl I'll always care for you)
I just wanna share my life with you
Right here, right now, forever girl I

HOOK

Seven seas


Sitting by the window
All day thinking of you
Watching the days go by, I started to cry
But they weren't tears of sadness
They only meant I love you
And I wanna tell you girl that I, oh, I

I'll travel 'round the seven seas for you
It's written in the melody I adore you
I wrote my love a symphony
To show you there's nothing I won't do
Baby I'll walk around the
China wall for you
If there's a way I'll do it all for you
Anything you want me to,
you know I would do

People think I'm crazy, they say
I'm just a nothing
Letting my life pass me by
Believing you're with me
Well I can't speak for no one
But in my heart I know you love me
And that's why I'll always tell you I
Oh I, Oh I, Oh I

Do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do

Simple Days Lyrics



I was born on the north side of a
Midwestern town
There were nine of us living in a
Three bedroom house
Didn't have much money
But we made due
'Cause Momma worked all day long
And Daddy did too
Did all they could
Made sure we had clothes and food
Went to public schools and we
Followed public rules
We used second hand books, but oh
I didn't mind the books
Momma taught us early in life
Everybody's gotta struggle sometime

Bring back those simple times of yesterday
When a man was a man
And a friend was a friend
Bring back those simple times of yesterday
When you said what you meant
And you meant what you said

Had a friend named Bobby
Who always kept his word
We went through schoolyard fights
Had a thing for pretty girls
Didn't cost much money to
See the picture show
So we hopped the bus into town
That's where all the girlies used to go
Fifty cents would buy us popcorn for two
'Cause Bobby's girl, she worked there
And sometimes she'd break the rules
Picnics in the summer
Wouldn't wake up 'till noon
And even though Bobby's gone now
I can still hear him laugh
In the middle of June

HOOK

Sometimes I sit, I wonder
I reminisce, I think of all the good times
That we had in our lives
Sometimes I can't get over
How wonderful those days were
Back in our lives
Simple days for simple times

HOOK

Talk to Me


What must I say to you
To get inside your head
Why must you always think
I Wanna get in your pants
And why I always gotta be
The closest thing to wrong
Sometime the only thing a brother need
He need a woman to be strong

Well I ain't cryin', I ain't cryin'
Done 'bout run out of tears
But you're the closest thing to heaven
I need you to be near
Hear me darlin', hear me darlin'
I can't make it more clear
The only thing that's gonna get me through
Is if I got you right here

Ooo girl, talk to me
You're the only one that comforts me
My only reality is I want you for my woman
ooo girl, speak to me
Let me hear you sayin' that you're stayin' with me
I know my reality is without you
I ain't nothin' at all

Why does everything I say to you
Have to be suspect
Feel like the only way I'll get with you
Somethin' blows off my head
Well I ain't tryin' to go out like that
Wanna keep myself clean
Sometime the only thing a brother need
He need the strength from his queen

I ain't lyin', I ain't lyin'
Done 'bout run out of time
The only time I wanna do it right now
Is feel you by my side
Hear me darlin', hear me darlin'
I can't be more sincere
The only thing that's gonna get me through
Is if I got you right here

HOOK

Well I said everything's gonna be alright
When you stand by my side
Gonna work things out tonight
We're gonna make out just fine
For once I'd like you to be
The one who has the faith in me
And I promise I won't let you down this time

HOOK

The Day (That You Gave Me A Son)


'Twas late December the news came
And I got so excited, I cried all day
And you were such a lovely, precious SIGHT
When I saw our baby in your eyes

It was like falling deep in love
I heard the angels cry above
I felt a blessing straight from God
The day that you gave me a son

I called 'bout everyone I knew
Just think, I'll be a father 'cause of you
There's no greater love than what you gave
A brand new baby on the way

HOOK

Oh such tears of joy, I've never known
I can't remember
It's like a song, I've never heard
I've never sung, but know the words

HOOK
