"In Your Eyes"

"In Your Eyes"


I think I finally know you
I can see beyond your smile
I think that I can show you
That what we have is still worthwhile
Don't you know that love's just like the thread
That keeps unravelling but then
It ties us back together in the end

[Chorus:]
In your eyes, I can see my dream's reflections
In your eyes, found the answers to my questions
In your eyes, I can see the reasons why our love's alive
In your eyes, we're drifting safely back to shore
And I think I've finally learned to love you more

You warned me that life changes
That no one really knows
Whether time would make us strangers
Or whether time would make us grow
Even though the winds of time will change
In a world where nothing stays the same
Through it all our love will still remain

[Chorus]

In your eyes, I can see the reasons why our love's alive
In your eyes, we're drifting safely back to shore
And I think I've finally learned to love you more
oooooohhhhhh

"Invitation"

"Invitation"


You and your smile
Hold a strange invitation
Somehow it seems
We've shared our dreams
But where?

Time after time
In a room full of strangers
Out of the blue
Suddenly you are there

Wherever I go
You're the glow of temptation
Glancing my way
In the gray of the dawn

And always your eyes
Smile that strange invitation
When you are gone
Where oh, where have you gone?

How long must I stay
In a world of illusion?
Be where you are
So near yet so far apart

Hoping you'll say
With a warm invitation
Where have you been?
Darling, come in into my heart

Wherever I go
You're the glow of temptation
Glancing my way
In the gray of the dawn

And always your eyes
Smile that strange invitation
When you are gone
Where oh, where have you gone?

How long must I stay
In a world of illusion?
Be where you are
So near yet so far apart

Hoping you'll say
With a warm invitation
Where have you been?
Darling, come in into my heart

"Irreplaceable"

"Irreplaceable"


So, so irreplaceable
This love is so, so irreplaceable
(All I need)
So, so irreplaceable
My love is so, so irreplaceable
(All I need)

Everyday my joys are like a waterfall
Little things you do like a simple call
And my night is something like a miracle
Baby girl, you're feeling me too

[Hook:]
Had a vision 'bout the river flowing me
In a clear blue sky
The way you found me
And wrapped around me
Angel you answered my cry
Wond'rin' to through the search
Lonely think of it
Searchin' for the best
With the comfort of your ears

[Refrain:]
Girl this time there's no mistake
You got my heart banging
Like I lead a way
More than just sensational you are
Irreplaceable

[Chorus:]
Think I wanna make you mine
Take a vow and dedicate my love to you
You are so simply irreplaceable
Irreplaceable
Love you till the end of time
Promise I'll be spending all my life
Just making you happy
So irreplaceable you're all I need

So, so irreplaceable
This love is so, so irreplaceable
(All I need)

I can see the future as I fantasize
There's a baby boy with your pretty eyes
And the little girl who makes the world of you
Baby girl, you seeing it too

[Hook II:]
Had a vision 'bout the river flowing me
In a clear blue sky
Oh my, the way you found me
And wrapped around me
Angel you answered my cry

With a view form inside
Well it must in your eyes
God made you so beautiful
Wonderin' to the search
Lonely think of it
Searching for best
With the comfort and your ease

[Refrain:]
Girl this time there's no mistake
You got my heart banging
Like I lead a way
More than just sensational you are
Irreplaceable

[Chorus:]
Think I wanna make you mine
Take a vow and dedicate my love to you
You are so simply irreplaceable
Irreplaceable
Love you till the end of time
Promise I'll be spending all my life
Just making you happy
So irreplaceable you're all I need

All I ever wanted was a girl like you
So take this ring and say I do (I do)
Heaven must so blessed
It's 'cause of love so rare
It's beautiful, it's priceless, it's beyond compare..

All I ever wanted was a girl like you
So take this ring and say I do (I do)
Heaven must so blessed
It's 'cause of love so rare
It's beautiful, it's priceless, it's beyond compare..

[Chorus 2x]

"Kiss And Make Up"

"Kiss And Make Up"


I didn't mean to,
Start any scene to
Make you sigh
Hope to die

It's most immoral
For us to quarrel
Why can't we
Both agree

Don't you know Ben Franklin wrote about this thing at length?
On the proposition that in union there is strength?
Why raise a storm up
If we'll just warm up

The blues will slumber
We'll have their number
Let's kiss and make up
Come on, let's wake up

For I need you and you need me
Let's kiss and make up
No use to break up
When we can live in harmony

I'll give you your way
You give me my way
And out the doorway
Our cares will fly away

If we be happy
The way is clear
Let's kiss, and make up
No use to break up

We need each other, dear
Let's kiss and make up
No cares to rake up
For I need you and you need me

No reprimanding
Full understanding
That we can live in harmony
The world is prose-why

When we are fighting
Lets make it rosy
By reuniting
Two heads are better

Than what I hear
Let's kiss and make up
No use to break up
We need each other, dear

Why should we shake up
A new earthquake-up
Take the uptake-up
And soon they'll bake-up

A wedding cake-up
Let's kiss and make up
We need each other dear

"Lady Love Me (One More Time)"


Ooh...ooh...ooh...
Ooh...ooh...ooh...ooh...ooh...

If you're askin' me to say
Livin' life without you, girl, is alright

So before you turn and walk away
Just let me love you one more time
Feel your heartbeat close to mine
Let me love you all the time
Lady, love me

Remembering it used to be so right
If you're askin' for the truth

Feel your heartbeat close to mine

Lady, love me all the time
Lady, love me (Love me, lady, now you're mine)

Let me love you one more time
Feel your heartbeat close to mine

"Let It Rain"
(with Al Jarreau)

"Let It Rain"
(with Al Jarreau)



I can be so selfish, sad and moody
I can hear my mama talking to me
She said, 'Girl, you need to change your attitude'
I come home tired and I'm rude to you

And I've got a little problem with 'I'm sorry'
I say go to hell and in a hurry
And if that hurts, I get a little mad at you
The truth we know I'm a little jealous too

Well, if tears like rain have magic powers
Here they come again, them midnight showers

Let it rain tonight, purify like holy water
When I pray tonight, gonna say how much I want her
Start it again
[Incomprehensible]
And take it way back when

Do you remember those sweet talks early morning?
Looking and I turn into the dawning
If this works I'll thank the Lord with gratitude
I tell you I'd do all I got to do

But if tears like rain have magic powers
Here they come again, them midnight showers

Let it rain tonight, purify like holy water
Gonna pray tonight, gonna say how much I want her
Start it again, baby baby ooh I wanna start again
Take it way back when, well, well, yeah, yeah, come on

Let it rain, water wait I'm walkin'
Wash me up and wash me down
Gonna be good for me, oh let it rain
No more turning, no more tossing
Just like Christmas in the morning for you and me

Let it rain tonight, purify like holy water
When I pray tonight, gonna say how much I want her
Start it again
Take it way back when

Let it rain, tell water to wait I'm walkin'
Wash me up and wash me down, be good for me
Let it rain, no more turning and tossing
Just like Christmas in the morning for you and me

Let it rain tonight, purify like holy water
When I pray tonight

"Let's Do It Again"

"Let's Do It Again"


Do it again, do it (Do it)
Let's do it again (Do it)
Mmm (Do it again, do it again)
Gonna do it again (Do it)
Do it, do it
Let's do it again (Do it)
Do it again

Sometimes the rain
Groovin' when I hear the sound
Like you and me, baby
Gettin' down with the sounds around
Oh, the smell of the mornin' flower
As we pass away the hour

I wanna do it again, do it again
Do it (Do it)

Let's do it in the mornin'
Sweet breeze in the summer time
Feeling your sweet face
All laid up next to mine
Sweet love in the midnight
Good sleep, come mornin' light
No worries 'bout nothin'
Just gettin' good, just gettin' good
Just gettin' good love

Do it, do it again
Do it again (Do it)
Do it

Now I like you, lady
So fine with your pretty hair
If you don't mind my compliments
Just diggin' on the clothes you wear
I'm just a man now don't you fear
I can love you now I brought you here

I wanna do it again
(Do it) (Do it, do it) I wanna do it again
Ooh, oh, ho, hey, do it again
Do it
(Woo, hoo, hoo, hoo)
Do it

Like a hammer on a clock
Love began to rock
Give the sister love and pride
Feel good and satisfied
I'm not a girl that could linger
But I feel like a Butterfinger

I wanna do it again, do it again
Do it, do it

Let's do it in the mornin'
Sweet breeze in the summer time
Feeling your sweet face
All laid up next to mine

Sweet love in the midnight
Good sleep, come mornin' light
No worries 'bout nothin'
Just gettin' good, just gettin' good
Just gettin' good love

Oh, hey, do it again, do it again
Do it again, do it again
Do it (Woo, hoo, hoo)
Do it, do it
Do it, do it, do it again
Do it again (Woo, hoo, hoo), do it again
Do it again, do it again, do it again (Woo, hoo, hoo)

Mmm...
(Woo, hoo, hoo)
Oh, hey
(Woo, hoo, hoo)

Do it again, do it again

"Li'l Darlin'"

"Li'l Darlin'"


Don't need no palace paved with gold
Don't need more cash than banks can hold
When I get to feelin' a feelin'
For something there ain't too much of
My sweet lil darlin' gives me her love

Don't catch me chasin' round at night
I'm not impressed by glamour sights
Lil darlin' may not be as pretty
As some other gals you can see
But my lil darlin' only loves me

"Lost In Love"

"Lost In Love"


I don't wanna waste your precious time
So if I keep talking, baby, you can know my mind
'Cause I got a heart disease that only you can cure
So cast you magic on the water, baby, and make this ocean pure

Ooh, when ever I sensed danger in the company of strangers
I have to find the courage enough to go
I gotta glue myself together, rise above the stormy weather
We defined this parting pleasure 'cause, baby, don't you know?

I've been lost in love
I've been lost in love
Oh yeah, lost in love
Baby, my, my baby, it's been much too long

Baby, I've been searching for a sympathetic soul
To fill my world with healing, yes, to make this good man whole
Once upon a time, long ago and far away, happiness wasn't mine
Though I prayed, it did not stay, did not stay

But still I won't surrender 'cause my heart still remembers
The memory so tender love would greet
So I ain't accepting never, 'cause if it takes forever
I'll put it back together and again my heart would sing

Lost in love
I've been lost in love, baby
Lost in love
My, my baby, it's been much too long, oh, yes

So I ain't accepting never 'cause if it takes forever
I'll put it back together and again my heart would sing

Lost in love
Lost in love
Lost in love
My, my baby, it's been much too long, oh yeah

Lost in love
Lost in love
Lost in love
My, my baby, it's been much too long

Lost in love
Lost in love
Lost in love
My, my baby, it's been much too long

Lost in love

"Love Ballad"

"Love Ballad"


I have never been so much
In love, in love before
What a difference
How true love made in my life
So nice and so right

Lovers come and then lovers go
That's what the people say
Don't they know
How it feels when you love me
Hold me and say you care
And what we have is much more than they can see
And what we have is much more than they can see
Baby what we have is much more than they see
Oh baby, whoa yeah

I'm in love, I'm in love with you girl

I say love I never knew that a touch
Could mean, could mean so much
What a difference
And when we walk hand in hand
I feel, I feel so real

Lovers come and then lovers go
That's what the people say
Don't they know
How I feel when you love me
Hold me and say you care
And what we have is much more than they can see
And what we have is much more than they can see
Baby, what we have is much more than they can see

Oh, yeah
