Alicia Keys 1집 - Songs In A Minor (2007) by Alicia Keys (보컬) on maniadb.com

Oh, oh, my goodness
I didn't know I was here
Do you know my name? (Can't go wrong when you try)
Always got to try
No matter how long that sh*t take
Yeah, yeah
Uh
Whatever stops you from dreamin'
Whatever trys to stop you from livin'
Flip it
Welcome home
'Cause right now what I got to do is
I gotta amp myself up as well as you
So yeah, so what it took me like
Maybe two years and sh*t
But I fell in prepared
You know what I'm sayin
And I'm feelin' a little more ready for the world
And less loss
As I once was

So come on
What you waitin' on?
Feel me, feel me, feel me
What, uh, yeah
What, uh, yeah
What?

Baby, silly for me to feel
this way about you and her
Cuz I know she's been such a good friend
I know she has helped you through

Talkin late on the phone
Every night you've been callin
Private moments alone
And your heart soon be fallin
And I know she's a friend
But I can't shake the feeling
That I could be losing your heart

I think I'm jealous of your girlfriend
Although she's just a girl that is your friend
I think I'm jealous of your girlfriend
She shares a special part of you

You said that she's one well to see
How deep you're in love with me
And intentions were not to get inbetween
But I see possibilites

And you say that you feel
I'm the best thing in your life
And I know it's realI see it in your eyes
There's no reason for me, to even feel this way
I know you just enjoy her company

I think I'm jealous of your girlfriend
Although she's just a girl that is your friend
I think I'm jealous of your girlfriend
She shares a special part of you

But all I wanna know baby is
If what we had was good
I keep your picture beside my bed
And I still remember everything you said
I always thought our love was so rare, I guess I was wrong
Always thought you'd be by my side, Papa, now you're gone
(And I'm not tryin' to hear that sh*t)

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

Still light the fire on the rainy night
Still I envision you holding me tight
Everybody say
Everybody say that we should never part
Tell me baby, baby, baby, why
Why you wanna go and break my heart

What I wanna know 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
Oh, you gotta try

I'll get down on my knees
Hoping you please
Oooh, won't you call me sometime, Papa

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
How come you don't call me

I keep on fallin' in
And out of love with you
Sometimes I love you
Sometimes you make me blue
Sometimes I feel good
At times I feel used
Loving you darling
Makes me so confused
I keep on fallin'
in and out of love with you
I never loved someone
way that I love you
Oh Oh I've
never felt this way
How do you give me so much
pleasure
cause me so much pain
Cause when I think
taken more than would a fool
I start fallin'
Back in love with you
I keep on fallin'
in and out of love with you
I never loved someone
the way that I love you
I I I I'm fallin'
I I I I'm fallin'
Fal fal fal fal
I keep on fallin' in and out
of love with you
I never loved someone
way that I love you
I'm fallin' in and out
of love with you
I never loved someone
way that I love you
I'm fallin' in and out
of love with you
I never loved someone
way that I love you

Yeah,yeah,yeah,yeah,yeah
Dear Lord can you take it away? (Oooh)
This pain in my heart that just follows me
by day
And at night stalks me like the shawdows on
my wall (Mmmmm)
Oh my goodness

It feels like the world is closin' on me
It feels like my dreams will never come to
me
I keep on slippin' deeper into myself
And I'm scared, so scared

If your troubled, you just gotta let it go
If your worried baby, you just gotta let it
go
All your hustlin' scene for nothing, you
just gotta take it slow
When you need me baby, all you do is let me
knoooooow

Why does it feel that my mind is constantly
trying to pull me down
I can't seem to get away
Contious mistakes I know I'm able for
How long will I feel so out of place

If your troubled, you just gotta let it go
If your worried baby, you just gotta let it
go
All your hustlin' scene for nothing, you
just gotta take it slow
When you need me baby, all you do is let me
knoooooow

If your troubled, you just gotta let it go
If your worried baby, you just gotta let it
go
All your hustlin' scene for nothing, you
just gotta take it slow
When you need me baby, all you do is let me
knoooooow

If your troubled, you just gotta let it go
If your worried baby, you just gotta let it
go
All your hustlin' scene for nothing, you
just gotta take it slow
When you need me baby, all you do is let me
knoooooow

If your troubled, you just gotta let it go
If your worried baby, you just gotta let it
go
All your hustlin' scene for nothing, you
just gotta take it slow
When you need me baby, all you do is let me
knoooooow

There's no escape on the spell you have placed
Leaving my heart and my mind
Foolish am I if I was to try to ever leave you behind
I wanna rock wit you, come give me all your love
No matter what we do, I wanna rock wit you
Wit you wit only you, wit you wit only you
I wanna rock wit you

I'll stay and walk this life wit you
No matter what we may go through
Dead broke, no job, no house, no ride
I'm goin' stay right by your side

I wanna rock wit you, come give me all your love
No matter what we do, I wanna rock wit you
Wit you wit only you, wit you wit only you
I wanna rock wit you

Don't question where you're headed to, my love
Don't be afraid, just believe in love

I wanna rock wit you
No matter what we do
Wit you wit only you
I wanna rock wit you

I wanna rock wit you
No matter what we do
Wit you with only you
I wanna rock wit you

I wanna rock wit you
No matter what we do
Wit you wit only you
I wanna rock wit you

Do your thing, do your thing
Do your thing, do your thing

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 to show
that you know she is worth your time

* You will lose if you choose
to refuse to put her first
She will if she can't find a man
who knows her worth, mhmn
Cuz a real man knows a real woman
when he sees her
And a real woman knows a real man
ain't afraid 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

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
Baby I know you're worth it

* Repeat

No need to read between the lines,
spell it out for you
Just hear this song cuz you can't go wrong
when you value
A woman, woman, woman,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 afraid 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 afraid 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
Mhmn mhmn mhmn mhmn mhmn mhmn

For real, drop the beat
Alicia Keys
Kandi
Collabo
Let's talk about the situation
'Bout how you came with information
That's negative in every which way
Just dissin' my man and our relations
You say he's cheatin,' want me to leave him
I've changed my mind, I think I'll keep him
Listenin' to you will leave me lonely
That's not what I'm tryin' to be

'Cause I'll be crazy to let my man go
And let some other Jane Doe
Come and try to steal him, oh no, oh no
Just crazy to let my man go
And let some other Jane Doe
Come and try to steal him, oh no, oh no

Think you slick like I wouldn't know
But I got something for you Doe
Mess around end up in a choke
Hold
Girl, I think it's time for you to
Go
Away from my man and me
If that's how it's gonna be

'Cause I'll be crazy to let my man go
And let some other Jane Doe
Come and try to steal him, oh no, oh no
Just crazy to let my man go
And let some other Jane Doe
Come and try to steal him, oh no, oh no

I love my man
He loves me more
He may not be the perfect man,
but I don't plan to let him go for
Jane Doe
Oh
(Jane Doe Uh oh Jane Doe
Jane Doe Uh oh Jane Doe
Jane Doe Uh oh Jane Doe
Jane Doe Jane Doe Jane Doe)

'Cause I'll be crazy to let my man go
And let some other Jane Doe
Come and try to steal him, oh no, oh no
Just crazy to let my man go
And let some other Jane Doe
Come and try to steal him, oh no, oh no

(Jane Doe Uh oh Jane Doe
Jane Doe Uh oh Jane Doe
Jane Doe Uh oh Jane Doe

And let some other Jane Doe
Come and try to steal him, oh no, oh no
Just crazy to let my man go
And let some other Jane Doe
Come and try to steal him, oh no, oh no

Mmn bye bye

How do you love someone
That hurts you oh so bad
With intentions good
Was all he ever had

But how do I let go
When I've loved him for so long
And I've given him all that I could

Maybe love is a hopeless crime
Giving up what seems your life time
What went wrong with something once so good

* How do you find the words to say
To say goodbye
If your heart don't have the heart to say
To say goodbye

I know now I was naive
Never knew where this would lead
And I'm not trying to take away (Oh, no!)
From the good man that he is

But how do I let go
When I've loved him for so long
And I've given him all that I could
Was it something wrong that we did
Because others infiltrated
What went wrong with something once so good

* Repeat

Is this the end are you sure
How should you know
When you've never been here before
It's so hard to just let go
When this is the one
And only love I've ever known
So

* Repeat

* Repeat

Everyday I realize
That this may be the last day of my life
Walking down the street I find that
I'm coming closer and closer to losing my mind

Cause when it rains, it pours
Isn't life worth more?
I don't even know what I'm hustlin' for
You've gotta do what you gotta do
just to make it through
All the hard times that's gonna face you

*This is the life (this is the life)
trying to survive
This is the life (this is the lfie)
trying to survive

(This is the life)

Living will always be a struggle
Looking for someone to love you
Looking back a single horrors,
This madness makes me want to hide

Slowly, eternally, I'm dying
Pillow case is wet from all my crying
There is nothing more to be here for
Take me away,
I can't live that life no more

* Repeat

* Repeat

* Repeat

Trying to get over

Somethin' about the way you smiled at me just drove me wild
Wish I could know if you're alone, don't wanna cramp your style
But I cannot deny the feeling that I feel when I look straight through your eyes
Feel my heart beating fast for her challenge, may you try
I wanna know if you feel the way I do (I do)
I wanna know if there's a chance for me and you (and you)
If there's no way, meet at the bar and you say can't (you can't)
'Cause I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be
Unfair to Mr. Man, unfair to Mr.Man
Unfair to Mr.Man, unfair to Mr.Man, unfair

Like the way you've given me attention through the night
Maybe I've had too much for me, my man's right by my side
Every time I catch you watchin' me I feel somethin' down my spine
I play the game, it's just for fun and only for tonight

I wanna know what makes you feel the way you do (you do)
I think you hopin' there's a chance for me and you (and you)
Should I meet you at the bar and say we can't? (we can't)
If there's no way, meet at the bar and you say can't (you can't)
Unfair to Mr. Man, unfair to Mr.Man
Unfair to Mr.Man, unfair to Mr.Man, unfair

I know all you wanna know is answers
'Cause you could gimme what I need
We both know that we're attracted
Should we let our desires lead?

I wanna know if you feel the way I do (I do)
I wanna know if there's a chance for me and you (and you)
If there's no way, meet at the bar and you say can't (you can't)
'Cause I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be
Unfair to Mr. Man, unfair to Mr.Man
Unfair to Mr.Man, unfair to Mr.Man, unfair to Mr. Man

I wanna know what makes you feel the way you do (you do)
I think you hopin' there's a chance for me and you (and you)
Should I meet you at the bar and say we can't? (we can't)
If there's no way, meet at the bar and you say can't (you can't)
Unfair to Mr. Man, unfair to Mr.Man
Unfair to Mr.Man, unfair to Mr.Man, unfair to Mr.Man

Ahhhh...
Ahhhhhhhh...There will never come a day
You will ever hear me say
That I want
Or need to be without you
I wanna give my all
Baby, just hold me
Simply control me
Because your arms
They keep away the lonelys
When I look into your eyes
Then I realize
All I need is you in my life
All I need is you in my life

'Cause I never felt this way about love...No
Never felt so good...Baby
Never felt this way about love
And it feels so good

Hmmmmm...
Lately when I look into your eyes
Baby I fly, you're the only one I need in my life
Baby I just don't know how to describe
How lovely you make me feel inside
You give me butterflyz
Have me flyin' so high in the sky
I can't control the butterflyz
You give me butterflyz
Have me flyin' so high in the sky
I can't control the butterflyz

It seems like the likely thing
From the start you told me
I would be your queen
But never had I imagined such a feeling
Joy is what you bring
I wanna give you everything

You give me butterflyz
Got me flyin' so high in the sky
I can't control the butterflyz
You give me butterflyz
Got me flyin' so high in the sky
I can't control these butterflyz

You and I
Are destiny
I know that
You were made for me

Ohhhhhh...
I can't control it
It's driven me
It's taken over me and I
Ohhhhhh...

You give me butterflyz
Got me flying so high in the sky
I can't control the butterflyz
You give me butterflyz
Got me flyin' so high in the sky
I can't control these butterflyz

You give me something I just can't deny
Something that's so free
I just can't control the way I feel
And I don't
You give me something I just can't deny
Something that's so free
Oh, I never felt like this

Friends we've been for so long
Now true colors are showing
Makes me wanna cry, oh yes it does
'Cause I had to say goodbye
By now I should know
That in time things would change
So it shouldn't be so bad
So why do I feel so sad

How can I adjust
To the way that things are going
It's killing me slowly
Oh, I just want it to be how it used to be

'Cause I wish that I could stay
But in time things must change
So it shouldn't be so bad
So why do I feel so sad

You cannot hide the way you feel inside, I realize
Your actions speak much louder than words
So tell me why, oh

By now I should know that
That in time things would change
So it shouldn't be, it shouldn't be so bad
So why do I feel so sad

By now I should know
That in time things must change
So it shouldn't be so bad
So why do I feel so sad

By now, by now I should know
That in time things must grow
And I had to leave you behind
So why do I feel so sad
If it couldn't be that bad
Tell me why

By now I should know
That in time things would change
So it shouldn't be so bad
So why do I feel so sad

Right now I feel like a bird
Caged without a key
Everyone comes to stare at me
With so much joy and rivalry
They don't know how I feel inside
Through my smile I cry
They don't know what they're doin' to me
Keeping me from flyin'
That's why I say that
I know why the caged bird sings
Only joy comes from song
She's so rare and beautiful to them
Why not just set her free
So she can
Fly, fly, fly
Spreadin' her wings and her song
Let her
Fly, fly fly
For the whole world to see
She's like a caged bird
Fly, fly
Oh, just let her fly
Just let her fly
Just let her fly
Spread the wings
Spread the beauty

Yeah let me try something real quick



If i gave you forever
Would you take care of me yeah, yeah (ah-ooh)?
Would you take me for granted?
Run away?



Those wonderful things that you do
They've got me feelin' in love with you
In love with you



And lovin' you is easy
Comes so naturally
Lovin' you is easy
Comes so naturally



I would give you laughter
Oh, so much more than that
Oh yes i would (ah-ooh)
Anything you're after
I will climb the highest mountain

To bring it back, you'd better believe



Those wonderful things that you do
They've got me feeling in love with you
In love with you



Lovin' you is easy
Comes so naturally
Lovin' you is easy
Comes so naturally



I will stay by your side
Whether i'm wrong
Whether i'm right
Oh, it's incredible
With you i intend to spend the rest of my life
Yeah, hey, yeah



Lovin' you is easy
Comes so, comes so naturally
Lovin' you is easy
Comes so, so
It comes so naturally




Lovin' you is easy
Ooh, Ooh

Lovin' you is easy
It comes so naturally (repeat til fade)

Never mind your fears
Brighter days will soon be here
Take it from me
Someday we'll all be free, yes

Keep on walking tall
Hold your head up high
Lay your dreams right up to the sky, oh yes
Sing your greatest song, mm-hmm
