LANGUISHING

Songwriters: Carey, Mariah; Wright, James;If you could only see that I was not put here for you
To judge me and dispute my in most truth
And after all these years of enmity, envy and tears
It's a shame, you don't know me at all

I was wondering would you cry for me
If I told you that I couldn't breathe
If I was drowning, suffocating
If I told you that I couldn't breathe

Those ageless buried recollections
We transform them and select them
You have yours, I have mine, that's fine
Why are we too torn to heal?
Our stitches never disappeared
I have mine, you have yours, I'm sure

I was wondering, would you reach for me?
If you saw that I was languishing
I was wondering, would you cry for me?
If I told you that I couldn't breathe
If I was drowning, suffocating
If I told you that I couldn't breathe

LAST KISS


Baby I know this, know this, know this
Aint gon' be our last kiss, last kiss, last kiss
Aint gon' be our last kiss, last kiss, last kiss

Feel so empty inside
Since our last kiss goodbye
Picture you in my mind
And I can't seem to rationalize
The way we let it end
It just don't make no sense
This can't be happening
I need you back again

Everybody asking questions
Like we're some kind of obsession
For the millionth time asking I'm like
"Uhh let it rest"
Can i get a minute to breathe
They're like "Nope,
What's up with you and so-so?"

But in my heart I know this
Ain't gon' be our last kiss
It's too big we just can't quit
What you think this is
Our love will always exist
Oh listen to me

Boy you know we trill
So stop frontin'
What we got is still
Somethin' somethin'
Oh this feeling it's too good to miss
And ain't no kiss gon' ever be our last kiss

Ooh you said you'd never leave me
So I'll keep believing
That eventually
We gon' kiss away the hurt
Do it like it were
And wake up how we used to be

Never let it go, get it right
Bring it back home, stay for life
Call it what you want, it's in your eyes
We gon' make it thru this i'll prove it
Somethin' bout our love
Will not fade away
Always everlasting and

In my heart I know this
Ain't gon' be our last kiss
It's too big we just can't quit
What you think this is
Our love will always exist
Oh listen to me

Boy you know we trill
So stop frontin'
What we got is still
Somethin' somethin'
Oh this feeling it's too good to miss
And ain't no kiss gon' ever be our last kiss

Baby I know this, know this, know this
Aint gon' be our last kiss, last kiss, last kiss
Aint gon' be our last kiss, last kiss, last kiss

In my heart I know this
Ain't gon' be our last kiss
It's too big we just can't quit
What you think this is
Our love will always exist
Oh listen to me

Boy you know we trill
So stop frontin'
What we got is still
Somethin' somethin'
Oh this feeling it's too good to miss
And ain't no kiss gon' ever be our last kiss

LAST NIGHT A DJ SAVED MY LIFE

DJ Clue

Last night a DJ saved my life
Last night a DJ saved my life
Cause I was sittin' there bored to death
And in just one breath he said
You gotta get up
You gotta get on
You gotta get down girl
You know you drive me crazy baby
You've got me turning to another man
Called you on the phone
No one's home
Baby why ya leave me all alone
And if it wasn't for the music
I don't know what I'd do

Last night a DJ saved my life
Last night a DJ saved my life from a broken heart
Last night a DJ saved my life
Last night a DJ saved my life with a song

You know I hopped into my car
Didn't get very far no
Because I had you on my mind
Why be so unkind?
You've got your women all around
All around this town, boy
But I was trapped in love with you
And I didn't know what to do
But when I turned on my radio
I found out all I needed to know
Check it out

Last night a DJ saved my life
Last night a DJ saved my life from a broken heart
Last night a DJ saved my life
Last night a DJ saved my life with a song

Last night a DJ saved my life
Last night a DJ saved my life from a broken heart
Last night a DJ saved my life
Last night a DJ saved my life with a song

Hey listen up to your local DJ
You better hear what he's got to say
There's not a problem that I can't fix
Cause I can do it in the mix
And if your man gives you trouble
Just you move out on the double
And you don't let it trouble your brain
Cause away goes troubles
Down the drain
I said away goes troubles
Down the drain

Last night a DJ saved my life
There's not a problem that I can't fix
Cause I can do it in the mix
There's not a problem that I can't fix
Cause I can do it in the mix

[Repeat]

LEAD THE WAY

Who would've believed
That you and me would fall
And land together
And who could've foreseen
In you I'd find the place
I've belonged forever
And if I move closer
Then love will take over
And lead the way
I'd given up hope
Losing the faith that love
Could be mine to treasure
And now
Nothing's the same
I found myself reborn
On the day I met you
And if we move closer
Then love will take over
And lead the way
Suddenly you are lying
Here with me and the truths
I used to hold have changed
And if I move closer
And let it take over
Then love will lead the way
And let it take over
Then love will lead the way

LONG AGO

LYRICS: M. Carey
MUSIC: J. Dupri, M. Carey, M. Seal
Once upon a time
You whispered softly in my ear
Loving words and fairytales
That I longed to hear
I gave you my body and soul
And you took control
As you slowly swept me up
And carried me away
You told me pretty lies
As I held onto you tight
You knew how to get your way
Ignorance was bliss in your warm embrace
Long ago
You used to want me
Now it's all so far away
But you still haunt me
And take me back to yesterday
Every now and then
I drown in thoughts of yesterday
And the fools' paradise that you blew away
I feel you beside me again
And remember when you came to my window
On a dark and stormy day
Baby, I need you now
Tonight I'm crumbling down
Sinking in the memories
Shadows of you keep washing over me
Long ago
You used to want me
Now it's all so far away
But you still haunt me
Long ago
You used to want me
Now it's all so far away
But you still haunt me
And take me back to yesterday
(So long ago)
(So long ago)
(So long ago)
(So long ago)
(So long ago)
(So long ago)
(So long ago)
(So long ago)
Baby, I need you now
'Cause tonight I'm crumbling down
Sinking in the memories
Shadows of you keep washing over me
Long ago
You used to want me
Now it's all so far away
But you still haunt me
And take me back to yesterday
Long ago
You used to want me
Now it's all so far away
But you still haunt me
Long ago
You used to want me
Now it's all so far away
But you still haunt me

LOOKING IN

Songwriters: Afanasieff, Walter; Carey, Mariah;You look at me and see the girl
Who lives inside the golden world
But don't believe
That's all there is to see
You'll never know the real me

Hmm
She smiles through a thousand tears
And harbors adolescent fears
She dreams of all
That she can never be
She wades in insecurity, yeah
And hides herself inside of me

Don't say, "She takes it all for granted"
I'm well aware of all I have
Don't think that I am disenchanted
Please understand

It seems as though I've always been
Somebody outside looking in
Well, here I am for all of them to bleed
But they can't take my heart from me
And they can't bring me to my knees
They'll never know the real me

LOVE STORY


Ay bay it won't end, won't end, won't end

Let's talk about love

This is my love story

Boy meets girl and looks in her eyes
Time stands still and two hearts catch fire
Off they go rollercoaster ride
Up & down and around...
Twisted all out they minds
And then his friends
Said "its too soon to settle down"
And then her friends
Said "he's a playa, slow it down"
They couldn't be who they was
Cause it just seemed like love
Wasn't on they side
But this isn't ...

Just another love story
Together we'll make history
I know because it's just too real
They'll be no end to our love story
And this ain't gon end up
Like that Casablanca movie...no
This ain't no fairy tale or fiction
This is truly
Ours for the eternity
They'll be no end to our love story
Baby...

Chapter two...
When they meet up again
Second time around
See but they're just friends
But the feelings still strong
And it's been too long
To be trippin' like they ain't been missing
They on the phone like
Ay bay bay
Let's meet up today
Gots bout an hour or two
You might as well come thru

We can make it like it was
Just the two of us
Back up on that rollercoaster
Like we been supposed to
Cause this isn't

Just another love story
Together we'll make history
I know because it's destiny
They'll be no end to our love story
And this ain't gon end up
Like that Casablanca movie...no
This ain't no fairy tale or fiction
This is truly
Ours for the eternity
They'll be no end to our love story
Baby...

Just when it seemed
Like all the odds
Were stacked against them
They came back stronger then before
Matter fact then some
Stronger then pride
Lookin' like them
Lookin' like her, lookin' like him
Stronger then hate
And the whole world too
Lookin' like me
Lookin' like you

Cause this isn't just another love story
Together we'll make history
I know because it's destiny
They'll be no end to our love story
And this ain't gon end up
Like that Casablanca movie...no
This ain't no fairy tale or fiction
This is truly
Ours for the eternity
They'll be no end to our love story
Baby...
Ay bay bay it won't end, won't end, won't end

LOVE TAKES TIME

I had it all
But I let it slip away
Couldn't see I treated you wrong
Now I wander around
Feeling down and cold
Trying to believe that you're gone

[Chorus:]
Love takes time
To heal when you're hurting so much
Couldn't see that I was blind
To let you go
I can't escape the pain
Inside
'Cause love takes time
I don't wanna be here
I don't wanna be here alone

Losing my mind
From this hollow in my heart
Suddenly I'm so incomplete
Lord I'm needing you now
Tell me how to stop the rain
Tears are falling down endlessly

[Chorus]

You might say that it's over
You might say that you don't care
You might say you don't miss me
You don't need me
But I know that you do
And I feel that you do
Inside

[Chorus]

[Mariah:]
I got myself a lover
Who loves what I like
When he invites me over
I come every time
Oh my sugar daddy
Takes me for a ride
Whatever way we're going
It's delirium time

He's all mine
And his loving makes me high
Like a taste of ecstasy
All I need is him to be my loverboy

Loverboy
Come on and love me
Give me more
Touch me and touch me
I enjoy the way you rock me all night long
(Baby all night long)
Loverboy come on and take me
Only you know how to make me
Shudder with anticipation
All night long
(All night long)

I got myself a lover
And he's so sublime
It's quite a bit of heaven
To feel in him inside
So come on sugar daddy
Take me for a ride
Whatever way we're going next
It's delirium time

I get weak
And his candy's just so sweet
When he caressed my whole body
All I need is him to be my loverboy

Loverboy
Come on and love me
Give me more
Touch me and touch me
I enjoy the way you rock me all night long
(I enjoy the way you rock me)
Loverboy come on and take me
Only you know how to make me
Shudder with anticipation
All night long

[Cameo:]
This stuff is starting now
This stuff is starting now
It's the same feeling
I always seem to get around you (Yes I do)
Cause you affect me
Fascinate me
I thank heaven for the things that you do
This stuff is starting now
This stuff is starting now
This stuff is starting now (Whoo)

My thoughts flow in my head
I toss and turn in my bed
In the morning when I think about you (Candy)
Simply put, you're the reason why
Even though I'm real shy
It's like candy
I attempt to look my best for you (Indeed I do)

[Mariah:]
Loverboy
Loverboy
Come on and love me
Give me more
Touch me and touch me
I enjoy the way you rock me all night long
(I enjoy the way you rock me)
Loverboy come on and take me
Only you know how to make me
Shudder with anticipation
All night long (Strawberry)
Loverboy come on and take me (Raspberry)
Only you know how to make me (All those good things)
Shudder with anticipation (Diamonds and gumdrops)
All night long (That's what you seem to me)
Oh loverboy
Loverboy
Come on and love me
Give me more
Touch me and touch me
I enjoy the way you rock me all night long
Loverboy come on and take me
Only you know how to make me
Shudder with anticipation
All night long

LULLABY

Should just hug you goodbye
But I just can't walk away from paradise
So I guess I'll sing you that sweet lullaby
And we can revisit us one more time
Yes, I'll come home with you tonight

Hey boy, what's going on
Thanks, I'm doing okay
Don't believe rumours- hey
How's your family
Please say hello for me
Guess we've both grown up a bit
But I have to admit
It really still feels good
Here by your side
Sitting right next to you
Just like I used to do
You know we can't deny
No one else in our lives
Holds a candle to you and I

Should just hug you goodbye
But I just can't walk away from paradise
So I guess I'll sing you that sweet lullaby
And we can revisit us one more time
Yes, I'll come home with you tonight

I should just hug you goodbye
But I just can't walk away from paradise
So I guess I'll sing you that sweet lullaby
And we can revisit us one more time
Yes, I'll come home with you tonight

So here we are again
All by ourselves
So familiar you know
That it actually almost feels like deja vu
Of that night on the roof
We kissed under the sky amid city lights
A sudden flashback to so long ago
In the dark all alone
With our bodies this close
Guess some things never change
'Cause I still melt away
When you touch me
And say my name

Should just hug you goodbye (baby)
But I just can't walk away from paradise (so I guess)
So I guess I'll sing you that sweet lullaby
(I'll come and love you to sleep)
And we can revisit us one more time
(revisit paradise for a while)
Yes, I'll come home with you tonight (by your side)
(lullaby)

I should just hug you goodbye (see I know I should but boy)
But I just can't walk away from paradise
(you just look so good)
So I guess I'll sing you that sweet lullaby
(so I'll sing that song)
And we can revisit us one more time
(you like to hear me sing as we revisit us)
Yes, I'll come home with you tonight

(It feels, feels good)

I should just hug you goodbye
(I can't walk away
But I just can't walk away from paradise
From paradise so I'll take you home and sing to you baby)
So I guess I'll sing you that sweet lullaby
And we can revisit us one more time
Yes, I'll come home with you tonight
(though I know that I should just)

I should just hug you goodbye
(oh I can't, ...cause you)
But I just can't walk away from paradise
So I guess I'll sing you that sweet lullaby
(you and I both know)
And we can revisit us one more time
(nobody else in our lives holds a candle to you and I)
Yes, I'll come home with you tonight

I should just hug you goodbye shhh!
(so hush pretty baby)
But I just can't walk away from paradise
(mmm,it's just me and you yeah, as we relive the splendor of you and I)
So I guess I'll sing you that sweet lullaby
And we can revisit us one more time
Yes, I'll come home with you tonight
(I'm gonna sing our sweet lullaby)
