Lyrics:

I see you there
A small scent of sin up in your eyes
And your hair relaxed to your shoulders
Let me float up to you darling
Are u wanting what it feels like you’re beggin me for
Lady don’t
Don’t you rush at all
I enjoy
The thrill of chasing you around

(Hook)
You’re so sophisticated lady you’re amazing
Got me stuck where I stand
I must say that you’re bad
Tell me what would it take
Just to get more than your name
So sophisticated lady

Can’t help but stare
The way that u walk talk and act
That’s so rare to find someone like you
Not even in my dreams
Let alone reality
Just knowing that I found you in this crowded city does something to me
Baby don’t
No don’t you rush at all
I enjoy
The thrill of chasing you around

(Hook x2)

Just keep on sipping on that wine
I know you’re having a good time
I can tell just from your smile that you’re feeling what I’m giving
Its the city in you got me feeling brand new
All the crowds of people I just wanna chill here with you
So if I tell you that I need you will it make you wanna stay
If I show you that I mean it will you love me here today
No I ain’t trying to rush
Don’t wanna get caught up
But all I’m thinking of
Is you

(Hook)

Lyrics:

[Intro: JD talking]
What's up baby?
I know some days..I go without making you feel appreciated
And uh..I just wanna let you know that..Everyday you are

[Verse 1: Brandon Hines]
I got a song I wanna sing to my number one fan
Plan to put a ring on it as soon as I can
What I mean is that I dont want you to have to worry about nothing babe (nothing babe)
(Im tryna set it out for my lady)
I know you know I love you but I wanna say it again
Let you know Im down with you girl til the end
But sometimes I feel you think I don't appreciate it
So every song that says "I love you" I wanna dedicate it to my

[Hook]
Girlfriend wifey my boo you are everything (Yes You Are)
Girlfriend wifey my boo you are everything (Yes You Are)
See I call you my best friend
Whats the definition?
Someone I can talk to
Someone that'll listen
Someone I can share all with
Have a ball with
Hate to separate from
Ain't another like this one

[Verse 2: Brandon Hines]
Im well aware that we're a pair that's supposed to be...
This is deeper than love says our astrology
See I'm an Aries and you're a Sagittarius
It reads right here..that you the one that's gonna take it there with us
Love me, have my baby ride with me..til the end
Hug me when I need one and tell me that Im your best friend
So much in common talk to me about everything
(Keep the party jumping, girl I ain't got no complaints!)

[Hook]
Girlfriend wifey my boo you are everything
Girlfriend wifey my boo you are everything
Yes you are (yes you are)
See I call you my best friend
What is the definition?
Someone I can talk to
Someone that'll listen
Someone I can share it all with
Have a ball with ..Hate to separate from
Ain't another like this one

[Bridge]
If there's somebody out there that you love
You don't think they really know you are about that true love
Call them on the phone turn to em send them a text
Do whatever you got to do
To let them know that its true
(I said)If somebodys out here that you love
You don't think they really know that you about that true love
Call them on the phone turn to em and send them a text
Do whatever you got to do
To let them know that is true

[Hook]
Girlfriend wifey my boo you are everything
Girlfriend wifey my boo you are everything
Yes you are yes you are
See I call you my best friend
What is the definition
Someone I can talk to
Someone that I listen
Someone I can share all with
Have a ball with ..gate to separate from
Ain't another like this one

Monica - 'Amazing' (2012)

One of my favourite song on Monica's new album, New Life.

Listen below:



Lyrics:
Oh na na na 
Oh na na na 
Oh na na na 

Everything I am, everything I was 
Has been elevated through the power of your love
Everything I lost, everything I’ve been 
No longer makes a difference since you changed my name 

[Bridge:] 
Got my heart beat faster, I can barely catch my breath! 
Boy, your love took the pain from my chest! 
Now I look at us, parallel to the stars 
Boy, you claim my heart, you’re so amazing! 

[Chorus:] 
You are amazing, when I thought that I have seen it all 
Came and shown me I ain’t seen nothing 
you are amazing 
when my back was up against the wall 
It was you that hit the restart button
Took me to a better place, show me some better ways 
Now I should be living my life each and every day 
Been through so much, never thought that you would exist 
But nobody made me feel like this! You are amazing! 

Everywhere I’ve been, everything I’ve done 
All the money don't take in comparison to the compassion you show me 
Every time that you hold me 
And when I’m in your arms, I can do anything for you 

[Bridge:] 

[Chorus:] 

Realized you're mine, you never left my sight 
I was lost, but you found me and saved my life I could have died, no love inside 
Before you I was stone inside 
But you made me feel again 
Boy, I swear you are amazing! 

Oh na na na 
Oh na na na 
Oh na na na 
You are amazing 

When I thought that I have seen it all 
Came and shown me I ain’t seen nothing 
you are amazing 
when my back was up against the wall 
It was you that hit the restart button
Took me to a better place, show me some better ways 
Now I should be living my life each and every day 
Been through so much, never thought that you would exist 
And nobody made me feel like this! You are amazing! 

Gave me a new life when you made me your wife 
yes you did! 
And I love, love, love you 
Is nothing I would not do for you…

Anthony Hamilton - 'I'll Wait (To Fall In Love)' (2011)

Back To Love is a great album. I definitely recommend it for those who enjoy R&B/Soul.

'I'll Wait (To Fall In Love)' is a really nice song. One of my fave from the new album! 

Listen below: 

Lyrics:

I`ll wait for you to fall in love
I`ll hold myself for only you
you know I will baby hmmm

along the way I try my hand in love
in hopes that we'll one day bring that unity
the one that feels natural and true like an older day movie
not pretentious both interests agree
that we belong in love as a power
I`ll give to stay, you

chorus
I`ll wait for you to fall in love (I`ll wait I`ll wait I`ll wait)
I`ll hold myself for only you( I`m gonna hold myself for you baby)
I`ve tried to settle down before
I`ve tried I`ve tried
but there`s no other love that will do

Elated about you all joy (the thrill to me)
for once I can open my heart and share all feelings
come closer and make me your own(give a life time baby)
and shelter me close with your love
cause there is no woman out there can do ohhh

chorus
I`ll wait for you to fall in love (said I`ll wait)
I`ll hold myself for only you( I`ll hold myself for you baby)
I`ve tried to settle down before
said I`ve tried it before
there`s no other love that will do

for your love I`ll wait(I`ll wait)
girl I`ll wait (cause there`s no other love)
cause there`s no love that will do
makes me feel the way that you do my baby ohhhhh

chorus
I`ll wait for you to fall in love (I`ll wait baby)
I`ll hold myself for only you( I`ll hold myself for only you)
I`ve tried to settle down before
I`ve tried I`ve tried
there`s no other love that will do things like you do

I`ll wait for you to fall in love (I`ll wait baby)
make me feel like you do
I`ll hold myself for only you( I`m gonna wait baby)
make me feel like you do

do do do do do do do do x4

Anthony Hamilton - 'Best Of Me' (2011)

One of my favorite track from Anthony Hamilton's latest album, Back To Love.

Listen below:

Lyrics: 

It’s simple, I love it, having you near me, having you here

Our conversations, outrageous, 

You smile, and I smile then I say

Boo, this getting personal, personal, personal

Let’s stay for a while and play

Girl let’s make this a moment

Giving you the best of me, amazing, lady, amazing, baby

Having you close to me, amazing, outrageous

Give your best to me

Good morning, here’s breakfast

Lost track of time but, we had a ball

Let’s catch a movie, then dinner

Tonight’s the night we’ll

Just unwind, and stay, hey

Let’s stay personal, personal, personal

Let’s stay for a while and play

Such a beautiful moment

Giving you the best of me, amazing, amazing, 

Having you close to me, amazing, outrageous

Give your best to me

Giving you the best of me, amazing, amazing, 

Having you close to me, amazing, outrageous

Give your best to me X 2

Listen below: (snippet only)



Lyrics:

Oooooh ohh yeah

Ohh ohh

Hey, girl
I've been thinking
About you in see-through secrets
Crawling on my thousand friend count
Down, down, down
Play, play hard to get it
'Cause you know I love to chase that
Till you push me on the bed and start your show

Baby 'cause I'm all tied up
Inside, come save me
I get lonely (I get lonely)
I get blue (I get blue)
I want you baby (I want you baby)
I need you (all I need is you)
'Cause I'm all tied up (ohh yeah yeah yeah oooh)
Inside, come save me
I get lonely (come save me)
I get blue (come save me)
I want you baby (come on baby)
I need you (all I need is you)

Lay, lay across my pillow
As you make love to my ego
And you always treat me like a superstar
Oh, I'm so obsessed you,
Know I'm such a mess
But, when I see you get undress and
Start your show

Baby 'cause I'm all tied up
Inside, come save me
I get lonely (I get lonely)
I get blue (I get blue)
I want you baby (I want you baby)
I need you (all I need is you)
'Cause I'm all tied up (hey yeah yeah yeah yeah yey)
Inside, come save me
I get lonely (come save me)
I get blue (come save me)
I want you baby (all I...)
I need you (all I need is your love)

(I'm all tied up) girl, I'm so locked up inside
(I get blue) Ooh I need you, you got the key baby,
Only you can release me now (ooh)
(I'm all tied up) I need your love, ooh I need you to save me baby
(I need you) ooh you got the key, come on and set me free

Baby 'cause I'm all tied up
Inside, come save me (uhh)
I get lonely (I get lonely)
I get blue (I get blue)
I want you baby (I want you baby)
I need you (all I need is you)
'Cause I'm all tied up (ohh yeah yeah yeeiiii)
Inside, come save me
I get lonely (come save me)
I get blue (come save me)
I want you baby (all I...)
I need you (all I need is you)

Baby 'cause I'm all tied up (all tied up)
Inside, come save me (I'm all tied up) (all tied up)
I get lonely (I'm so lonely)
I get blue (I get blue)
I want you baby (come on save me baby)
I need you (nothing without you)
'Cause I'm all tied up (ohh yeah yeah yeeaahhh)
Inside, come save me
I get lonely (come on just save me)
I get blue (come on just save me)
I want you baby (come on just save me)
I need you (I need your love)
