"Stop To Love"

"Stop To Love"


Lately love keeps keeping up at night
Tossing and turning, my love
Wanna kiss you, wanna hold you real tight
Ooo but I wonder love whether you know or not
You just hurry away, leaving me laying there in shock

I just wanna be the one that you wanna see
I just wanna have you near me
But you fly away almost everyday
You work a lot but you never stop to love

[Chorus:]
Stop, I love you so stop
Come home from the road
Gotta stop to love
And let's celebrate, celebrate the love we got, stop
Say you're coming home

You say my love has always been on your mind
But how can I ever love you, when you keep working overtime?
Too many empty nights, can make almost any guy roam
To look for the love he don't get whenever he's at home alone.

Awaiting the day that you're coming to stay
I hate to see you go away, but you couldn't rest
Had to do your best to reach the top
But you did not stop to love

[Chorus]

And one day you'll discover I'm the one who love ya
Gotta stop to love
No one loves you better
Can't you stay forever?
Stop to love
I can hardly stand the loneliness
Come on home, that's what it's all about
You really turn me out

[Chorus]

And that I'd be back another day

She said she didn't need to know, ooh, ooh

More than her sweet and tender kiss
She's got something that I just can't seem to resist
And that's why I've got to tell you this, listen here

I've heard some talk there's gonna be a hurricane
Big heavy winds and lots of rain, it's gonna carry on

If you need me you know where I'm gonna be
Look out

And all Heaven above

"Superstar / Until You Come Back To Me (That's What I'm Gonna Do)"



I wanna tell you, baby
The changes I've been goin' through
Missin' you, missin' you, oh...oh...
Till you come back to me

Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, oh, baby

You want my love, but you're on the road
Don't you remember me anymore

Loneliness
Is such a sad affair
A sad affair
And I can hardly wait
To be with you again

And what to say, to say
To make you come again
Oh, honey
Come on back to me again, yeah, hey
I wanna be, I wanna be anywhere you are

"Take You Out"

"Take You Out"


Yeah, yeah
Here it is

She caught me by surprised I must say
Cause I never have seen such a pretty face
With such a warm and beautiful smile
It wasn't hard for me to notice her style
I was fascinated, surely
She took my heart and held it for me
I wouldn't let her get away
Not until she heard me say

[1] - Excuse me miss
But what's your name
Where are you from and can I come
And possibly, can I take you out tonight

To a movie, to the park
I'll have you home before it's dark
So let me know, can I take you out tonight

Don't care if I get rejected
At least then I won't regret it
Regret the fact I missed the chance for romance
At least I'll walk away knowing
I tried my best and I'm going
I'm going on with my day
Cause at least she heard me say

[Repeat 1 (2x)]

That's why I had to come over
And introduce myself to you
Cause you're never gonna know
Where you'll find love, oh yeah
And hopefully I found it in you, yeah

[Repeat 1 till end]

"The Closer I Get To You"
(feat. Beyonce Knowles)

"The Closer I Get To You"
(feat. Beyonce Knowles)



The closer I get to you
The more you make me see
By giving me all you've got
Your love has captured me
Over and over again
I try to tell myself that we
Could never be more than friends
And all the while inside
I knew it was real
The way you make me feel
Lying here next to you
Time just seems to fly
Needing you more and more
Let's give love a try
Sweeter and sweeter love grows
And heaven's there for those
Who fool the tricks of time
With hearts in love will find
True love
In a special way
The closer I get to you
The more you make me see
By giving me what you've got
Your love has captured me
Over and over again
I try to tell myself that we
Could never be more than friends
And all the while inside
I knew this was real (got to be real)
The way you make me feel (you know)
My baby, my baby, my baby, my love
Come a little closer so we can see into the eyes of love
Just a little a closer let me speak to you
I wanna tell you something
Here I am-- I just want you to come closer
Come a little closer let me whisper in your ear
‘Cause I wanna tell you something
Move a little a little closer we can say for real
The way we feel about each other’s lovin’…

"The Night I Fell In Love"

"The Night I Fell In Love"


[Spoken:]
I keep going over it and over it again in my mind
I get these flashback and I feel sooooo good
This is one night that I'll never forget
You see, it was just like in the movies
I mean, it actually happened just like this...

The stars were shining brighter than most of the time
Then love came out of nowhere

[Chorus:]
No thrill will ever be like
(The night that I fell in love)
I tenderly remember
(The night that I fell in love)
It surely was the best thing I ever did that night
(The night when I fell in love)

The stars' lights were in your eyes
(The night that I fell in love) with you

I've known so many people, been to most parts of the world
And seen some things that have blown my mind
But...

[Chorus]

I thought I would be happy without any love in my world
But now I know that, that is so untrue

[Chorus]

[Fade]

"The Rush"

"The Rush"



Oh, what happened?
You know when love comes
It seems you're never ready
That's why they call it the rush

Running right through my head
... (The rush)

Tell me, tell me are you there?
Could it be that you're the answer to my prayer?
See, I've prayed for peace and love like so many of us do
Then I prayed to find someone like you, yeah

Up in the morning, fell out of my bed
Worn out, I couldn't sleep
Thoughts of you filled my head
How could it be, this is scaring me
(The rush)

It seems every time I try to rest my heart is when
The rush is back again
Maybe this time I'll make it work somehow
Guess, I'm gonna find out now

I get a rush and it's love for sure
What else can it be? Something beckons me and I go back for more
Oh, such a rush, running right through my head, can't pass love by
What else can I do? Something tells me to give it one more try, yeah

I'm not gonna die if love passes me by
It goes and comes around, I know
So maybe the next time, I'll be one of the few
Chosen by love to do just what I wanna do

I will carry on wading through every day 'til love needs me
Waiting for the rush to come and find me
I can forget back when love was an angel sent
It will be back again

I don't remember when, I can't remember how
It's very different now
It ain't a fantasy, it's very real to me
True to the touch, I get a rush

I get a rush and it's love for sure
What else can it be? Something's calling me and I go back for more
Yeah yeah
It's such a rush, running right through my head, can't pass love by

The second time (Around) around
Ooo Yeah

So you wanted to be
Everything you'd heard him say he'd always needed

And the misery of a bad love
Would all be gone

Is kinda hard, baby
But, don't let it get you down
Don't you know that...

Love will be better (Yeah), better than ever (Oooh Yeah)

I know
(Better than ever)
Next time it will
(The second time around)
Your love
(Around, around)

"There's Nothing Better Than Love"
(feat. Gregory Hines)

"There's Nothing Better Than Love"
(feat. Gregory Hines)



I fell asleep last night
And I dreamed the night
And almost half the day away
I just got up so that
I can hear her say
She's still in love
And no one can take her love away
Ooo love wakes me up everyday
And I thought no one
Would ever make me feel this way
It feels me up everytime
I hear her say
She's still in love
And no one will take her love away
I wanna be love

[Chorus:]
There's nothing better than love
What in the world
Could you ever be thinking of
It's better by far
So let yourself reach for that star
And go no matter how far
To the one you love
To love
And I mean all these words I said
And you don't have to guess
What's going on inside me head
Just try to know
All the things that our heart says
Listen to love and always
Get love to lead the way
Whenever you love

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
You know for love
I'd go anywhere
I would go there
For love to the end of nowhere
And for your love
(And for your love)
I would,
I would
I would love
To just spend all my time
With a girl who makes me
Feel her love is mine
Someone you see
Who would only dream of me
And she be in love
Just because she wanna be
She wanna be loved

[Chorus: to fade]

"There's Only You"

"There's Only You"



I've been missing you and
I don't know what there is for me to do,
But hope and wish and pray
Love will find it's way from me to you one day
And I would stay inside your world forever more

There's no place to hide. I could never run,
From what I feel inside.
Seems all I have is you, and I want to make
You love me deep and true.
And if you do, I want to learn to be a part of you

When there's no one to believe in
My fantasies run wild.
I make it easy on myself.
I just dream of how the world would be
If there were only you and me and no one else.

I could easily believe in love 'cause
You would never let me down.
You bring such happiness to me
And to prove how true my love would be,
I'd hold you very high, for the world to see.

I'll be missing you,
And I don't know what there is for me to do,
But I'll remember you.
It seems I'm in the world alone with only you.
For me to love, and to be loved
There's only you
There is only you
