Alicia Keys - Unplugged [live] (2005) by Alicia Keys (보컬) on maniadb.com

Weren't you the one that said,
that you don't want me anymore.
And how you need your space,
and give the keys back to your door.
And how I cried and tried
and tried to make you stay with me.
But still you said that love was gone,
and that I had to leave.

Now you, talkin bout a family
Now you, sayin I complete your dream
Now you, sayin I'm your everything
You confusin me, what you say to me
Don't play with me, don't play with me.

Cause what goes around, comes around.
What goes up, must come down.
Now who's cryin, desirin to
come back to me
What goes around, comes around.
What goes up, must come down.
Now who's cryin, desirin to come back

I remember when I was sittin home alone
Waitin for you til 3 o'clock in the morn
And when you came home,
you'd always have some sorry excuse.
And explainin to me
like I'm just some kinda fool
I sacrifice the things
I want to and do things for you
But when it's time to do for me,
you never come through

Now you, wanna be a bond of me
Now you, have so much to say to me
Now you, wanna make time for me
What you do to me, you confusin me
Don't play with me, don't play with me.

Cause what goes around, comes around.
What goes up, must come down.
Now who's cryin, desirin to
come back to me
What goes around, comes around.
What goes up, must come down.
Now who's cryin, desirin to come back

I remember when I was sittin home alone
Waitin for you til 3 o'clock in the morn
Night after night knowin sumthing goin on
Wasn't home befo me you was,you was gone

Lord knows it wasn't easy, but believe me.
Never thought you'd be the one
that would deceived me.
And never do wha u was supposed to do
No need to hose me fool, cause I'm ova you

Cause what goes around, comes around.
What goes up, must come down.
Now who's cryin, desirin to
come back to me
What goes around, comes around.
What goes up, must come down.
Gotta stop tryin, to come back to me

What goes around, comes around.
What goes up, must come down.
It's called Karma baby.
And it goes around.
What goes around, comes around,
What goes up, must comes down,
Now who's cryin, desirin to come back to me

let me tell you something
tell you how i feel
when he comes around
I get to feeling ill
it's an achy feeling
inside my chest
it's like i'm goin into cardiac arrest

(Bridge)
Adrenaline rushin in my body
with all my power I just can't fight it
now matter how hard I keep on tryin
I can't deny I got this

(Chorus)
Heartburn
burning in my soul
Heartburn
call the fire department
Heartburn
It's out of control
Heartburn

You got me trippin, slippin
Gettin besid myself
I tried some medication
But don't nothin help
So I say Doctor, doctor
Tell me wil I die
And he said
Count to 5 Alicia
And I'm gonna be alright
Let's go 1 2 3 4

Bridge & Chorus

Taste so good I can't resist
Getinharder to digest
I can't take no more
Gotta shakei off
Now break it down
And Take it to the ground wit me now
Everybody say oh......

Chorus

Shake it, Shake it
Go 'head girl
SHake it, shake it
Oooooo
(repeat)

You could buy me diamonds
You could buy me pearls
Take me on a cruise around the world
Baby, you know I'm worth it

Dinner lit by candles
Run my bubble bath
Make love tenderly to last and last
Baby, you know I'm worth it

Wanna please
Wanna keep
Wanna treat your woman right

Not just told
But it's showed
That you know she is worth your time

You will lose
If you choose
To refuse
To put her first

She will
and she can
Find a man who knows her worth
mmmmmmmmmm hmm
Cuz a real man knows a real woman when he sees her
And a real woman knows a real man ain't 'fraid to please her(yer yer)
And a real woman knows a real man always comes first(comes first)
And a real man just can't deny
A woman's worth
hmm mmm hmmm mmm hmmm mmm hmmm hmm mmm hmm
hmmm hmmm mhmmmmmmmm

If you treat me fairly
I'll give you all my goods
Treat you like a real woman should
Baby, I know you're worth it

If you never play me
Promise not to bluff
I'll hold you down when shit gets rough
Cuz baby, I know you're worth it

She walks the mile
Makes you smile
All the while
Bein' true

Don't take for granted
The passions that she has for you

You will lose
If you choose
To refuse
To put her first

She will
and she can
Find a man who knows her worth

Oooooh

Cuz a real man knows a real woman when he sees her
And a real woman knows a real man ain't 'fraid to please her
And a real woman knows a real man always comes first(first baby)
And a real man just can't deny
A woman's worth

No need to read between the lines spelled out for you(spelled out for you)
Just hear this song cuz you can't go wrong when you value(you value)
A woman's (woman's, woman's, woman's) worth

Cuz a real man knows a real woman when he sees her
And a real woman knows a real man ain't fraid to please her
And a real woman knows a real man always comes first
And a real man just can't deny
A woman's worth

Cuz a real man knows a real woman when he sees her
And a real woman knows a real man ain't 'fraid to please her
And a real woman knows a real man always comes first
And a real man just can't deny
A woman's worth

But all I wanna know baby is,
if what we had was good
I, yea baby

I keep your picture beside my bed
And I still remember everything you said
I always thought our love was so right
I guess I was wrong
Always thought you'd be by my side, papa
Now you're gone

And I'm not tryina hear that shit

What I wanna know baby
If what we had was good
How come you don't call me
Anymore?

Still like a fire on a rainy night
(You ain't think that did you?)
Still like it better when you're holding me tight
(You know, yea)
Everybody said
Everybody said that we should never part
Tell me baby, baby, baby why
Why you wanna go and break my heart?

All I wanna know is baby
If what we had was good
How come you don't call me
Anymore?

Sometimes it feels like I'm gonna die
If you don't call me papa
Ooh, you got to try
Won't get down on my knees
Won't beg you please
Please, ooh

Won't you call me sometime, papa?
Why don't you call me back no more?

Why on earth can't you just pick up the phone?
You know I don't like to be alone

How come you don't call me?
(Why must you torture me?)
How come you don't call me?
(repeat chorus until faded)

If I was your woman
And you were my man
You'd have no other woman
You'd be weak as a lamb
If you had the strength
To walk out my door
My love would over rule my faith
And I'd call you back for more

If I was your woman
(If I was your woman)
If I was your woman
(If I was your woman)
And you were my man

Yeah
She tears you down Darling
Says you're nothing at all
But I'll pick you up Darling
When she lets you fall, cause
You're like a diamond
But she treats you like glass
But you keep beggin' her to love you
But me you won't ask

If I was your woman
(If I was your woman)
If I was your woman
(If I was your woman)
If I was your woman

Yeah
Life is so crazy
And love is unkind
Because she was first darling
Will she hang on your mind
You're a part of me
But you don't even know it
I'm what you need
But I'm too afraid to show it

If I was your
If I was your woman
If I was your woman
I got to be I got to be your
(If I was your woman)
Your woman
(If I was your woman)
If I was your woman
(If I was your woman)
Here's what I'd do
I'd never, never, never, never, never stop loving you

Some people live for the fortune
Some people live just for the fame
Some people live for the power, yeah
Some people live just to play the game
Some people think that the physical things define what's within
And I've been there before but that life's a bore, so full of the superficial

Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you baby
If I ain't got you baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain't got you, yeah

Some people search for a fountain
The promise is forever young
Some people need three dozen roses
And that's the only way to prove you love them
Hand me the world on a silver platter
And what good would it be
With no-one to share with, no-one who truly cares for me

Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you baby
If I ain't got you baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain't got you, you, you

Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you baby
If I ain't got you baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain't got you, yeah

If I ain't got you with me, baby, ohh...
Say nothing in this whole wide world don't mean a thing
If I ain't got you with me, baby

Every Little Bit Hurts

Every little bit hurts,
Every little bit hurts..

Every night I cry,
every night I sigh,
every night I wonder why
you treat me cold,
yet you won't let me go.

every little hurt counts,
every little hurt counts,
you say you're coming home,
yet you never phone,
leave me all alone,
my love is strong for you,
I'd do wrong for you.
I can't take this loneliness you've given me.
I can't go on giving m life away.

Oh, come back to me,
darling you'll see,
I can give you all the things you wanted before,
if you will stay with me.

Every little bit hurts,
every little bit hurts

To you I'm a toy and you're the boy,
who has to say when i should play.
yet you hurt me, desert me.
Why ya hurt me baby?
why ya hurt me baby?

Oh, come back to me,
darling you'll see,
I can give you all the things that you wanted before.
if you will stay with me.

Every little bit hurts,
every little bit hurts,
every little bit hurts,
every little bit hurts.

Streets of New York
(feat. Nas & Rakim)

[Nas] (Alicia Keys)
Nasty, yeah, yeah (New York, New York)
Hey yo black it's time again, yeah, yeah
(New York, New York)
Come here, yeah, yeah
(New York, New York)
Hey yo black it's time

(*"yeah, yeah, hey yo black it's time" - continues throughout song*)

[Nas]
If you knew my streets
You would know all everybody talk about is who got beef
Who snitchin, who told police
Who came home, who still gone, who restin in peace
Now they killin over music money, not drugs, rap replaced it
Cause thugs with no brains got no patience
New jacks I pistol whip 'em with the funky rhythm I be kickin
Musician and flatten composition
A pain, I'm like Saddam Hussein
Still alive lookin at his dead children's burnt remains
I burnt the game, learnt you lames a new lesson
Your crew's soft man, ya'll need some new weapons
The P's breathe Warriorz and skullies and Timmies
Around mixed, spics, niggaz and giddies
From my ghetto kings in deep thought we don't blink
But don't think we wastin our time
It's a New York State of Mind

[Chorus #1 - Alicia Keys]
New York, New York, New York
New York City, whoa oh
New York, New York, New York
New York City, baby

[Alicia Keys]
It's like a jungle, out here
So much struggle, out here
And my dream's still unphased
Greed still the cousin of death
Always feels like always somethin farther time
In the Streets of New York
(New York state of mind, New York State of mind)

[Alicia Keys]
All I see is street homes
And who it's holdin, our people
Only comforts the brain
It's like I'm going insane
The revolution has to start, don't waste no time
In the Streets of New York
(New York state of mind, New York state of mind)
C'mon

[Chorus #2 - Alicia Keys]
New York, New York, New York, New York oh
State of mind (New York City)
New York, New York, New York, New York oh
State of crime (New York City)
New York, New York, New York, New York oh
Big dreams (New York City)
New York, New York, New York, New York oh
Big schemes

[Alicia Keys]
Oh, break the game
Just ain't the same
Baby loves and girls with no shame
Can't get away (get away), epidemic plague
Every hood in every state
Don't have no reasons cause relieve is hard to find

[Break - Alicia Keys]
In the streets of New York (New York state of mind) - 4X
(*"New York state of mind" is also repeated in background*)

[Rakim]
I'm from the home of a million legends and trend settin
A lot of footsteps to follow, I've been steppin
Mind stressin tryin to find a record crime shreddin
Time precious, I ain't have rest since nine eleven
I live fast, hustle like today is my last
I get cash, the struggle's like a day on the Ave.
Crack bein raw, gats squeezin off
Manhattan squeezin off, from cats who tease with war
The eve of the Apocalypse, evil keep movin politics
Every block is at risk, the metropolitan metropolis
The opposite of Liza Minelli and Frank Sinatra
Alicia Keys, Nas and Ra the gangsta's opera
So New York City walk with me, talk gritty
It's up to us New York it's our city
Here the man come with the anthem, hands up
It's time the thrill is back New York, let's stand up

[Chorus] - w/ ad libs

[Rakim - talking behind Chorus]
Oh yeah, crucial Keys
Your God Rakim Allah
New York City, Nasty Nas
A. Keys, yeah, c'mon

Childhood living is easy to do
The things you wanted I bought them for you
Graceless lady you know who I am
You know I can't let you slide through my hands

Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses, couldn't drag me away

I watched you suffer a dull aching pain
Now you decided to show me the same
No sweeping exits or offstage lines
Could make me feel bitter or treat you unkind

Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild horses couldn't drag me away

I know I dreamed you a sin and a lie
I have my freedom but I don't have much time
Faith has been broken Tears have been cried
Let's do some living before we die

Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild horses couldn't drag me away

Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wildhorses, we'll ride them some day

Wild horses, wild horses

Lay your head on my pillow
Here you can be yourself
No one has to know what you are feeling
No one but me and you

I won't tell your secrets
Your secrets are safe with me
I will keep your secrets
Just ain't goin' be as the pages in your diary

I feel such a connection
Even when you far away
Oooo baby if there's anything that you fear
Come forth and call 4894608 and I'll be here

I won't tell your secrets
Your secrets are safe with me
I will keep your secrets
Just ain't goin' be as the pages in your diary

And only we know what talked about baby
Don't know how you can be driven me so crazy
Baby when your in town why don't you come around
Be the loyalty you need you can trust

I won't tell your secrets
Your secrets are safe with me
I will keep your secrets
Just ain't goin' be as the pages in your diary

Baby baby baby
from the day I saw you
I really really wanted to
catch your eye there's something
special 'bout you
I must really like you
'cause not alotta guys are
worth my time Ooh baby baby baby
It's gettin kinna crazy
'cause you are takin over my mind
And it feels like
U don't know my name
I swear It feels like
U don't know my name round we go
Will you ever know Oh Baby baby baby
I see us on our first date
You doin everything that
makes me smile and when
we had our first kiss
it happened on a Thursday
Oh it set my soul on fire
Oh baby baby baby
I can't wait for the first time
my imaginations runnin wild
And it feels like
U don't know my name
and I swear it baby It feels like
U don't know my name round we go
Will you ever know I'm sayin
He don't even know
what he's doin to me

I'm feelin like OH

for anyones attention
take notice of whats infront of you
cause did i mention
you about to miss a good thing
and you'll never know
how good it feels to have
all of my affection
and you'll never get a chance
to experience my lovin
'Cause my lovin feels like
U don't know my name and I swear

U don't know my name round we go
Will you ever know

And it feels like
U don't know my name

U don't know my name
and it feels like
U don't know my name and I swear
mather and father and it feels like

Will you ever know

Remembering the days when our love began
Thinkin' of a million ways
To escape and be with you
But reality wasn't just you and i
It was long drawn out days and lonely nights

Dream about you
I keep dreamin' bout you
when I'm dreamin' bout with you
what you would say

Let me take you to another place
where nothing ever seems to matter
It's just you and me
We can take flight like a thief in the night
stolen moments with you

Destiny didn't have such a simple plan (simple plan)
I was just a girl and you a young man
How could age define
Something so divine (so divine)
Can this even be real or just exist in my mind

Dream about you
I keep dreamin' bout you
when I'm dreamin' bout with you
what you would say

Let me take you to another place
where nothing ever seems to matter
It's just you and me
We can take flight like a thief in the night
stolen moments with you

piano breakdown

Dream about you
I keep dreamin' bout you
when I'm dreamin' and waitin' for the day
when noone and nothing else takes up our time
Finally you're only mine

Each and everyday
I don't walk with you right by my side
But instead we have to hide
Sneak around and lie
Just to spend time alone
This lovin is a crime
I'd rather do the time
and leave the world behind

Let me take you to another place
where nothing ever seems to matter
It's just you and me
We can take flight like a thief in the night
stolen moments with you

piano breakdown 2
