"Gotta Go Solo"
(feat. Ronald Isley)

"Gotta Go Solo"
(feat. Ronald Isley)



[Ronald Isley:]
Raindrops on my window seal (well, well, well)
It's quiet as a mouse in here (oh, oh, ooh)
You're somewhere with the girls doing nails
Dinner's takeout, no homecooking all year
Ain't no use pretending (no, no)
'Cause perfect I know I have not been
But there's gotta be a way to work things out (oh)
Twenty years, should remove all doubt

[Chorus 1:]
[Ronald Isley:] If you love me, (I love you) then how could you go
[Patti LaBelle:] It's not about the love, it's just I've had enough maybe we need to let it go
[Ronald Isley:] If you ever loved me, (I love you baby) then how could you leave
[Patti LaBelle:] some songs have gotta end, we're better off as friends maybe it's time I go solo

[Patti LaBelle:]
I know this is confusing to you (very, very, very)
But it's been coming for a mighty long time (a mighty long time)
A woman needs to be loved
Head to toe
Body, soul, and mind
You've been taking me for granted (have I really?)
No surprises, no flowers on rainy days
Now I can keep u just the way you are
But I know some things will never change

[Chorus 2:]
[Ronald Isley:] if you love me(I love you baby)then how could you go
[Patti LaBelle:] it's not about the love it's just I've had enough maybe we need to let it go
[Ronald Isley:] hey, if you ever loved me(I love you baby) then how could you leave
[Patti LaBelle:] some songs have gotta end we're better off as friends maybe it's time I go solo solo solo

[Bridge:]
[Patti LaBelle:] I can't sing this melody no more, I've sung it for so long
[Ronald Isley:] Is it the chorus, the verse, or the bridge.(I don't know)just tell me exactly what it is
[Patti LaBelle:] Ron we're over troubled waters I can just show it's over

[Chorus 3:]
[Ronald Isley:] if you love me (oh, Ron I still love you baby) then how could you go
[Patti LaBelle:] Hew, it's not about the love it's just I've had enough maybe we need to let it go, let it go
[Ronald Isley:] if you ever loved me(Oh, Ron you know I love ya) then how could you leave
[Patti LaBelle:] some songs have gotta end we're better off as friends Mrs. Patti's gotta go solo... solo

[Patti LaBelle:] Breakdown
[Ronald Isley:] If you ever loved me
[Patti LaBelle:] I love you baby, Ron I love you
[Ronald Isley:] Oh, oh, ooh, how could you leave
[Patti LaBelle:] That a right, I'm gonna tell you why
You been Mr. Bigg
You been Mr. Bigg too long
Now honey here's Mrs. Bigg
[Ronald Isley:] talk to me
[Patti LaBelle:] That's what I've been doing all for twenty long years
[Ronald Isley:] Yeah

"Hear My Cry"
(feat. Floetry)

"Hear My Cry"
(feat. Floetry)



Does my discomfort
Comfort you
Do you believe that joy
Is too much to hope for
Can you see?
Our existence could be so much more
Create yours
And allI ask is
Just a little respect from you
Do you even know who I am

Do you hear my cry
Do you believe in me
'cause I believe in you
Hear my cry
Do you believe in me
'cause I believe in you
Hear my cry
Do you believe in me
'cause I believe in you
Hear my cry
Do you believe in me
'cause I believe in you

You shaped my passion
But shame my name
Your fear is to listen
And to recognize my pain
You block my journey
You mock my tears
Tell me why
I spoke for us, for we
But now there's just silence

Do you hear my cry
Do you believe in me
'cause I believe in you
Hear my cry
Do you believe in me
'cause I believe in you
Hear my cry
Do you believe in me
'cause I believe in you
Hear my cry
Do you believe in me
'cause I believe in you

[Bridge:]
For a brighter day
I hope to see you again
For a brighter day
I'm hoping we can still be friends
For a brighter day
I wish we could fly away
Together baby you and I
Can't you hear my cry,
My cry, my cry

Do you hear my cry
Do you believe in me
'cause I believe in you
Hear my cry
Do you believe in me
'cause I believe in you
Hear my cry
Do you believe in me
'cause I believe in you
Hear my cry
Do you believe in me
'cause I believe in you

"Here You Come Again"

"Here You Come Again"


Here you come again,
Just when I've begun to get myself together,
You waltz right in the door,
Just like you've done before
And wrap my heart 'round your little finger.

Here you come again,
Just when I'm about to make it work without you,
You look into my eyes and lie those pretty lies
And pretty soon I'm wond'rin how I came to doubt you.

All you gotta do is smile that smile
And there go all my defenses.
Just leave it up to you and in a little while
You're messin' up my mind and fillin' up my senses.
Here you come again lookin' better than a body has a right to;
And shakin' me up so that all I really know
Is here you come again and here I go.

All you gotta do is smile that smile
And there got all my defenses.
Just leave it up to you and in a little while
You're messin' up my mind and fillin' up my senses.
Here you come again lookin' better than a body has a right to;
And shakin' me up so that all I really know
Is here you come again and here I go and here I go

"I Believe I Can Fly"

"I Believe I Can Fly"


I used to think that I could not go on
And life was nothing but an awful song
But now I know the meaning of true love
I'm leaning on the everlasting arms

If I can see it then I can do it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and fly away

I believe I can soar
I see me running through that open door
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly

See I was on the verge of breaking down
Sometimes silence can seem so loud
There are miracles in life I must achieve
But first I know it starts inside of me, oh

If I can see it then I can be it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and fly away

I believe I can soar
I see me running through that open door
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
Hey, 'cause I believe in me, oh

If I can see it then I can do it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and fly away

I believe I can soar
I see me running through that open door
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly

If I just spread my wings
I can fly
I can fly
I can fly, hey
If I just spread my wings
I can fly

"I Can't Complain"

"I Can't Complain"


Sometime, I can't help thinking,
Just what my life is for,
I try to do very best that I can,
Yet I know I can do more.

This life I lead is not one without it's pain,
That doesn't mean I should smile nothing there to gain.

I can't complain,
I know the sun shines through the rain,
It still survives,
I can't complain,
Everyday is a new begining,
And this is journey of my life,
Journey of my life.

(Said)I've done just as I've desired
Lived on wire without a net
Been so many places
(Said)I've seen so many faces
Beautiful friends I will never forget.

Sometimes I look above and think I wanna give it up
Then I remember all the lives that I have touched

I can't complain...
So many yesterdays have come and gone their way.
Love leads me striaght and clear into the light of day.

I can't...

I'm not the only one who's learned to try again,
And through it all I've got my family and friends,
So I can't complain...

"I Don't Do Duets"

"I Don't Do Duets"


[Patti:]
I did it again, I always make the same mistake
When it comes to men, I fall for the guys with the bedroom eyes
It starts out great, but before too long
Mr right turns out to be mr wrong

[Chorus: Patti]
He said I love you baby, you're the best I ever knew
But I'm not ready, for anyone like you
This is as far as it goes, and close as it gets
He said you sure sing pretty, but I don't do duets

[Gladys:]
Mmmmmm
He walked in the room, and all he had to do was smile
Waiting in his arms a fool would have known, was a danger zone
His talk was so sweet, but let there be no doubt
While I was moving in, he was movin' out

[Chorus: together]

[Patti:]
So I wish

[Gladys:]
I wish

[Patti:]
I wish that I could lose my mind

[Gladys:]
That I could lose my mind, just let it go

[Patti:]
For the fateful rarely stay in mind

[Gladys:]
For the fateful rarely stay in mind

[Patti:]
Ohh, he's out there singing on his own

[Gladys:]
And like me he's tired

[Patti:]
Like me he's tired of doing it alone

[Gladys:]
I did it again

[Patti:]
I make him happy

[Gladys:]
I always make the same mistake

[Patti:]
Oh how I love him

[Gladys:]
When it comes to men

[Patti:]
I keep him warm

[Gladys:]
I fall for the guys with the bedroom eyes

[Patti:]
For the rest of his nights

[Gladys:]
It starts out great

[Patti:]
Singing together

[Gladys:]
But before to long

[Patti:]
Singing together

[Gladys:]
Mr right turns out to be mr wrong

Patti:
We forget all those lonely solo nights

[Both:]
Enough of I love you baby, you're the best I knew
No more I'm not ready, for any one like you
I'm not gonna fall for those lies, those lies and regrets
Not gonna sing so pretty if he don't do duets

I don't wanna make the same mistakes again

Not gonna sing so pretty if he don't do duet

[Gladys:]
This is as far as it goes

[Both:]
Not gonna sing so pretty if he don't do duets

Enough is enough baby

Not gonna sing so pretty if he don't do duets
Not gonna sing so pretty if he don't do duets

[Patti:]
No more no more no more no more no more

[Both:]
Not gonna sing so pretty if he don't do duets

"I Don't Go Shopping"

"I Don't Go Shopping"


I don't go shopping for love
You're somethin' money can't buy
I dream in colors and my dreams
Are all in shades of you, so I'm never blue

I don't go wishing on stars
Just wanna be right where you are
Too many times it felt so right
But it was just the night, now I see the light

I don't care nothin' about goin' out
Now that I've found out what it's all about
Hear me shout, I've saved it all up for you
So if you feel like I do, well, we're long overdue

I'm never out after dark
You'll always find me right here at home
If you're allowed to stay up late
Then please don't hesitate 'cause I can only wait

I don't care nothin' about goin' out, no, no
Now that I've found out what it's all about
Hear me shout, I've saved it all up for you
So if you feel like I do, well we're long overdue, oh

I don't care nothin', nothin' about goin' out, baby
Now that I've found out what it's all about
Hear me shout, I've saved it all up for you, babe
So if you feel like I do, oh, well we're long overdue, oh

I don't care nothin', nothin' about lovin' around, baby
I've been there and I found out what it's all about
Hear me shout, I saved it all up for you
So if you feel, feel like I do, well we're both long overdue

And I can't, I just can't, I can't go shopping for love
How about you? How about you?
I know exactly what it's all about
And I'm happy, happy our love for two baby

"I Fell In Love Without Warning"


I fell in love without a warning
I fell in love by surprise
You just popped up out of nowhere
