"I Want"

"I Want"



Baby when you need me
Wintertime or anytime at all
I'll be right there for you
Be right there whenever you call

And I say baby I'm addicted
I'm addicted to your love
I love you more and more
More and more than all the stars above

And I say boy I love the way you walk
And I say boy even when you talk
You rock my world
Feel so good to me
Don't you know that you're my fantasy

Want - I want your lovin'
Need - I need ya
Want - I want your lovin'
Need - I need ya
Can't ya see
Your love is good for me

Baby when you need me
Wintertime or anytime at all
I'll be right there for you
Be right there whenever you call

And I say baby you can do it
You know how to love me, love me right
You know just what to do
Know just how to fill my appetite

"I Was Made To Love Him"

"I Was Made To Love Him"



I was born in Little Rock
I had a childhood sweetheart
We were always hand in hand
He wore high top shoes and shirt tails
Chaka wore her pigtails
I knew I loved him even then

Well you know my papa disapproved
My mama boo hoo hooed
But I told 'em time and time again
Don't you know

I was made to love him
Build my world all around him
Yeah, yeah, yeah

He's been my inspiration
And shows appreciation
For the love I gave him through the years
Like a sweet magnolia tree
My love blossoms tenderly
My life grew sweeter through the years
I know that

My baby loves me
My baby needs me
That's why we've made it through the years

I was made to love him
Build my world all around him
Yeah, yeah, yeah

All through thick and thin
My love just won't end
'Cause my I love my baby, love my baby, oh

My baby loves me
My baby needs me
That's why we've made it through the years

When I was knee-high to a chicken
The love bug bit me
And I'm still, still in love

If the distant mountain crumble
Love won't tumble
I'll still be standin' there

Can't go nowhere, I'm on fire...

"I'll Be Around"
(feat. Miles Davis)

"I'll Be Around"
(feat. Miles Davis)



I'll be around no matter how you treat me now
I'll be around from now on
Your latest love can never last, and when it's past
I'll be around when she's gone

Goodbye again, and if you find a love like mine
Just now and then, drop me a line to say you're feeling fine

And when things go wrong, perhaps you'll see you're meant for me
So I'll be around when she's gone

Just now and then, drop me a line to say you're feeling fine

And when things go wrong, perhaps you'll see you're meant for me
So I'll be around when she's gone

"I'll Never B Another Fool"

"I'll Never B Another Fool"


I'll never open my legs again
To a man who's insecure
I'll never open my legs again
Unless I'm really sure

[Chorus:]
No I'll never, never
Never be another fool

Sad but true, I slept with you
I thought we were in love
I even got me a rose tatoo
But that was not enough

[Chorus]

Never, no!
Never, never, never

Nothing but the best of me
I gave with open arms
Alive and well, I'm back from hell
Released from your charms
(It's time to go)

Scene 23, exit, fade to black
Tel me, why'd you have to come back

This love you need to fade
Leave the best to yesterday
If this only one thing is true
I ain't gonna be another fool

Never be another fool

You think about callin'? - Don't!

"I'm Every Woman"

"I'm Every Woman"


[Chorus:]
I'm every woman, it's all in me
Anything you want done, baby
I'll do it naturally
I'm every woman, it's all in me
I can read your thoughts right now
Every one from A to Z

I can cast a spell
With secrets you can't tell
Mix a special brew
Put fire inside of you
But anytime you feel
Danger or fear
Instantly I will appear, 'cause

[Chorus]

I can sense your needs
Like rain on to the seeds
I can make a rhyme
Of confusion in your mind
And when it comes down
To some good old fashioned love
That's what I've got plenty of, 'cause

[Chorus]

I ain't braggin' 'cause I'm the one
You just ask me ooh and it shall be done
And don't bother to compare
'Cause I've got it
I've got it, I've got it, yeah

I'm every woman
[Repeat and fade]

"I'm In The Mood For Love"

"I'm In The Mood For Love"



I'm in the mood for love
Simply because you're near me
Funny, but when you're near me
I'm in the mood for love

Heaven is in your eyes
Bright as the stars we're under
Oh, is it any wonder?
I'm in the mood for love

Why stop to think of whether
This little dream might fade?
Let's put our hearts together
Now we are one, I'm not afraid

If there's a cloud above
If it should rain, we'll let it
But for tonight forget it
I'm in the mood for love

Why stop to think of whether
This little dream might fade?
Let's put our hearts together
Now we are one, I'm not afraid

If there's a cloud above
If it should rain, we'll let it
But, for tonight, forget it
I'm in the mood for love

"Is That All There Is"

"Is That All There Is"



"I remember when I was a very little girl, our house caught on fire.
I'll never forget the look on my father's face as he gathered me up in his arms
And raced through the burning building out to the pavement.
I stood there shivering in my pajamas and watched the whole world go up in flames.
And when it was all over I said to myself,
'Is that all there is to a fire?'"

Is that all there is?
Is that all there is?
If that's all there is, my friends,
Then let's keep dancing.
Let's break out the booze
And have a ball
If that's all there is.

"And when I was 12 years old, my father took me to the circus, the greatest show on earth.
There were clowns and elephants and dancing bears and a beautiful lady in pink tights flew high above our heads.
And as I sat there watching the marvelous spectacle, I had the feeling that something was missing.
I don't know what, but when it was over I said to myself,
'Is that all there is to a circus?'"

Is that all there is?
Is that all there is?
If that's all there is, my friends,
Then let's keep dancing.
Let's break out the booze
And have a ball
If that's all there is.

"Then I fell in love with the most wonderful boy in the world.
We would take long walks by the river or just sit for hours gazing into each other's eyes.
We were so very much in love. Then one day, he went away.
And I thought I'd die, but I didn't.
And when I didn't, I said to myself,
'Is that all there is to love?'"

Is that all there is?
Is that all there is?
If that's all there is, my friends,
Then let's keep dancing.

"I know what you must be saying to yourselves.
'If that's the way she feels about it why doesn't she just end it all?'
Oh, no. Not me. I'm in no hurry for that final disappointment.
For I know just as well as I'm standing here talking to you,
When that final moment comes and I'm breathing my last breath,
I'll be saying to myself..."

Is that all there is?
Is that all there is?
If that's all there is, my friends,
Then let's keep dancing.
Let's break out the booze
And have a ball
If that's all there is.

"It's My Party"
(feat. Cecil Womack)

"It's My Party"
(feat. Cecil Womack)



Everybody's having a real good time
The man you're talking to is not yours, he's mine
Better chill out, hear what I'm saying
Before I stop the music playin'

[Chorus:]
It's my party, I'll start it, I'll end it
Baby, it's my party, I'm upset and offended

While I'm all alone, and the party's goin' strong
It's a celebration, to better our relation
A sudden flash in my vision
Rendezvousin' in the kitchen
Kit got lost, and I found him all involved
He was wearing a guilty face
He had his arms around her waist
And lipstick on his face

[Chorus]

Everybody's having a real good time
The man you're talking to is not yours, he's mine
Better chill out, hear what I'm saying
Before I stop the music playin'

Say you had too much to drink
Lost your head and couldn't think
A sudden flash in my vision
Rendezvousin' in the kitchen
Then you got lost, and I found you all involved
Wearing a guilty face
Had your arms around her waist
And lipstick on your face

[Cecil:] Oh, tell me what it is
[Chaka:] Ooh, you had lipstick on your face
[Cecil:] Oh, tell me what'd you see
[Chaka:] Rendezvousin' in the kitchen
[Cecil:] Oh baby, what it's gonna be
[Chaka:] Gonna stop this music playing
[Cecil:] Oh, do you trust in me
[Chaka:] It's very plain to see

"It's Not Over"
(feat. LeCrae)

"It's Not Over"
(feat. LeCrae)



Know that you got problems
Feels like you're living on borrowed time
You think that you can solve them
You can still get heaven on the line
I'ma light a candle
Show you you can handle
Anything that takes your breath away
So don't you be nervous
We are still in service
By your head, it might be time to pray

(Can't stop now)
No runnin' away
You got some living to do
(Can't stop now)
It's never too late
You got to prove it
It's not over, over
It's not over, over
(It's not over)
It's not over, over
(It's not over)
It's not over, over
(Over)

Searching for a miracle
See it if you open up your eyes
Rushing like a waterfall
Cleanses you and bathes you in your life
I'ma light a candle
Show you you can handle
Anything that takes your breath away
So don't you be nervous
We are still in service
By your head, it might be time to pray

(Can't stop now)
No runnin' away
You got some living to do
(Can't stop now)
It's never too late
You got prove it to you
It's not over, over
It's not over, over
(You're not alone)
It's not over, over
(Over)
It's not over, over

Yeah, I know what they told you
But hold on, ya, it ain't over
Your heart's hard tryin' to back it down
But you done come too far to start backing now and
You probably got a whole lot of questions
But sometimes not knowing is a blessing
So hold on, pray hard
The sun rise with a new great start

The world is yours, don't be afraid
Just lift your heart and walk this way
Believe me, there will come a day
But not today, no, not today

(Can't stop now)
No runnin' away
You got some living to do
(Can't stop now)
Never too late
You got to prove it
It's not over, over
It's not over, over
(It's not over)
It's not over, over
It's not over, over

Over
Over, over, over, over, over
Over
Over, over, over, over, over
Over

"It's You"

"It's You"



It's you, no one else will do

I knew one day
Another true love would come my way
Only time will tell
If it's right, it just can't fail
And there you were
And my quest for love is over
Now my only lover...is you

No one else will do
It's true
I'm the only one for you

Love ain't so bad
If you have an understanding
You know it's everlasting
You let it show with the test of time
I'll be yours and you'll be mine
Without a doubt
Now my quest for love is over
Now my only lover

It's you....I'll never love another
Nobody can take your place
Without a doubt
My quest for love is over
My only lover
It's you
