Atula egwu gi kam nonyere
Atula egwu gi kam nonyere
Elela anya buruburu nujo
Nihi na mu anwem bu Chineke gi-o

Na agba gi ume
Mge nyere gi aka
Mge dobe gi nso

. . .


I ain't no superman
I don't prefer to be
Can't play the righteous man
That's way too hard for me
If you keep waiting on perfect
You might miss out an honesty
If you don't really think I'm worth it
Why do you keep coming back to me

Love me or leave me
Choose me or refuse me
If you can't see, then leave me
But love me

I know I can't give you the word
But I'll give all of mine
I've got a few bad habits baby
Just like the rest of mankind
I just wanna be loved
Don't wanna fight to keep my pride
You know I'll never leave you baby
Just do that feels right

Love me or leave me
Choose me or refuse me
If you can't see, then leave me
But love me

Tell me no lies
I'd rather know so I can sleep at night
I'm a man, I can take it
Whatever you choose, I'll face it
As long as you know that I'm gonna love you for life

Tell me you love me
Don't leave me baby girl
Choose me
Say you want me baby
Don't refuse me, don't refuse me no
If you can't see, then leave me
But love me
Love me baby, love me baby
Don't leave me baby no no
If you go I don't know what I'll do
Stay with me
If you can't see, I'll make you see I'm the one for you
Love me
Don't leave me, don't leave don't leave me, don't
If you go I don't know what I'll do
But if you don't love me, baby leave me baby

. . .



Was it me? Was it you?
Was it all the little things that I didn't do?
Try to move on, but I can't
No I can't imagine being someone else's man

Girl I tried, I tried a million times
To get you off my mind
It's not that easy no not that easy
Don't you know how hard it is for me
To smile and say goodbye
It's not that easy no it's not that easy

It's not over not for me
Used to have so much faith and I still believe
You're my weakness, you're my strength
And one without the other just don't make no sense

Girl I tried, I tried a million times
To get you off my mind
It's not that easy no not that easy
Don't you know how hard it is for me
To smile and say goodbye
It's not that easy no it's not that easy

It's not as easy for me as it is for you
Let me talk about it, it's not that easy
Listen
What am I meant to do without your love, your love
What am I meant to do without your love
Oh what am I meant to do without your love, your love
What am I meant to do without your love

Girl I tried, I tried a million times
To get you off my mind
It's not that easy no not that easy
Don't you know how hard it is for me
To smile and say goodbye
It's not that easy no it's not that easy

What am I meant to do without your love, your love
What am I meant to do without your love
What am I meant to do without your love, your love
What am I meant to do without your love

Don't you know how hard it is for me
To smile and say goodbye
It's not that easy no
It's not that easy

. . .


You call me up in tears again
I come over, your only friend
Put my arms around you, to stop this lonely night
You ask me to stay, I don't think it's right
When you tell me you're in love with him
Don't you know that it really caves me in
And I'm not that strong

Someone should tell you how much I love you
Cause I really do
Wish I could hold you the way that I want to
Cause no one can love you like I do

You're everything that I ever dream
You're the only one, the only one for me
So we talk all night
But in my head, three little words that I never said
You say you don't know what you can do without me
Don't you know that this is killing me
And I'm not that strong

Someone should tell you how much I love you
Cause I really do
Wish I could hold you the way that I want to
Cause no one can love you like I do

When you tell me you're in love with him
Don't you know that it really caves me in
And I'm not that strong, no
Said I'm not that strong

Someone should tell you how much I love you
Cause I really do
Wish I could hold you the way that I want to
Cause no one can love you like I do

No one could ever love you like I do

. . .



I've got a new house with much room
Got a lonely heart that needs you
I've got two cars, I can only drive one
Material things that can't replace your touch

If you wanna come
The only thing you really
Gotta bring is true love
I give you my word
I'm a man you can trust
Everything that's now mine
Will become ours

[Chorus]
My house is your home
You can come and go
As long as I know that you're faithful
What's mine is yours
You can have it all
Come sail the world
Own all that you see
Just be faithful to me

Wanna take you to a
Snow covered mountain
So cold but the sun's still shining
So many wonders we can both see
I'm praying you're the one
Who'll share the memories

[Chorus]

Every night and every day
Every promise ever made
I wanna share it all with you
Every breath you ever take
Every child you ever name
I wanna be there for you
Be faithful

[Chorus x2]

. . .



I gotta leave again
I don't wanna go
Things can be so lonely on the road
Could be the presidential suite
But nothing's ever like your bed at home
Especially when you're away from the one you love
It gets tough

Even though it hurts when I'm off at work
Looking at her picture soothes my pain
And for a moment I, find myself right back at home again
I remember, through the ups and downs of my day
I can say, my baby will be

[Chorus]
Sitting, waiting, longing, holding on for me
While the time goes tick tock tick tock
My baby will be
Sitting, waiting, longing, holding on for me
While the time goes tick tock tick tock

She's gotta leave again
She don't wanna go
Hates to be away from me so long
She calls me everyday but
She can't kiss her baby on the phone
When we're hanging up
The tears start rolling down

Even though she cries
She can find her smile
Cos she knows with me her heart is safe
Funny how time away, makes a loving heart grow fond again
She remembers, through the ups and downs of her day
She can say, oh that I'll be...

Sitting, waiting, longing, holding on for her
While the time goes tick tock tick tock
Her baby will be
Sitting, waiting, longing, holding on for her
While the time goes tick tock tick tock

Oh, we remember, through the ups and downs of our days
We can say, oh that we'll be

[Chorus x2]
Sitting, waiting, longing, holding on for love
While the time goes tick tock tick tock
Oh we will be
Sitting, waiting, longing, holding on for love
While the time goes tick tock tick tock

. . .


I'm not scared of you leaving
I'm not scared of you at all
And I give you this freedom
With no I told you so's if you fail
I'm making it easy
If you promise that it's understood
If I take you back
You're coming back for good
Cos I want that just can't live
Without each other love

I don't want your forgive me's
Don't need your sorry I forgot's
And if I have you here with me
Don't need you to be
something that you're not
I'm making it easy
If you promise that it's understood
If I take you back
You're coming back for good
Cos I want that just can't live
Without each other love

Something inside of me
Tells me you still believe
We've got that just can't live
Without each other love

It's all consuming, intoxicating
That old fashioned stuff
One ingredient missing
It just ain't, it just ain't, it just ain't enough

My eyes are wide open
They're not blinded by us
Cos I need that just can't live without each other love

We've got that just can't live without each other love
I've got that just can't seem to live without your love

. . .


(feat. Mica Paris, Styles P)

Since back in the day
We've been close friends
You would call on me telling me your problems
I'd been feeling things, things I never said
When you said that you were in love
Wish it was me instead
I'd treat you like an angel
He treats you like a fool
When you were hurting baby, I was broken too
And I can't go on
I need you baby

[Chorus]
Tired of being the shoulder you lean on
Wanna be the one you hold on to
More than just a friend
Let me be your everything
Wish I knew the way to make you
See that I've fallen in love with you
Can't you see I love you baby

If I sit you down, tell you what I'm going through
Will you leave him?
Will it be too much for you?
Don't wanna be an addition
To your situation
I never wanna be a complication
But if I see you cry
I'm stepping in
I can't keep watching you get your heart broken

[Chorus]

I ain't never said that I loved you
More than the friend that put nothin above you
And I could be more than the shoulder you lean on
I could be your king little lady, you'd be gettin your queen on
It hurt me everytime I seen him hurt you
Thinkin 'bout these feelins got me runnin in circles
(I can't go on this way)
I love your mind, body and soul, and even your perfume

[Chorus x2]

Whenever you're down, a mess
I will be there baby
I will lift you up when
When there's trouble girl
Look over your shoulders honey
When there's (trouble)
You can count on me

. . .


She wants to love him
Ready to give up everything, to be there when he calls
He wants to live life
See the whole world
Love don't come easy at all

Well I've been there like you before
And I know how it feels when they walk out that door

[Chorus]
When a heart is broken
You feel like giving up
Living like a prisoner
Convicted of love
When you know it's over
It's like a shot in the dark
Trying to find your way back to the start
When a heart is broken

He wouldn't let her hold him back
So he set off on his way
But she hoped he found the joy
He was searching for
She stayed and she cried a while
Then decided to move on
Cos she knew in life
She deserved much more

See only time can heal her pain
Lord, I pray that she won't make those mistakes again

[Chorus]

We all have our separate needs
Our separate wants from life
But if you love somebody
See you both have to compromise
Try to work it out
Find a way to make things right
If you don't wanna lose in love
If you don't want a broken heart

[Chorus x2]

. . .



Is anybody calling?
Is anybody holding?
Caroline, my Caroline
Has anybody told you
They'd give it up for you?
Caroline, sweet Caroline

Weren't you the one who said you're better off alone
Didn't mama tell you that your heart would need a home
Cant find the reason to get up and face each day
Please run to find me
Caroline

Still go to the movies?
Fall asleep at the ending?
Caroline, oh Caroline
Are you still laughing?
Same sense of humour?
Caroline, Caroline

Did you forget there are things we used to do?
I don't regret, I treasure moments shared with you
And I'll be here if you decide to change your mind
I'll give you time
Please Caroline

You should have said it wasn't working out for you
We could have sat down and talked it through
Just too many wasted tears
I'm left without a prayer

Is anybody hurting?
Like I'm sitting here hurting?
Caroline
I love you, Caroline...

. . .


Birds do it
Bees do it
Even educated fleas do it
Let's do it
Let's fall in love
Let's fall in love
Let's!

(feat. Joss Stone)

[Lemar]
Put on your red dress
And this diamond necklace
Your love leaves me senseless
I dedicate tonight to you
Cos we made it through another year
My love only gets stronger
And I'll be here the next year
Same time, same place, same girl

They say after the honeymoon, the passion's almost gone
But I feel as thought our love
Has only just begun

[Chorus]
It's our anniversary
Celebrating you and me
Nowhere else I'd rather be, oh no
It's our anniversary
A special day in history
I will love you endlessly
It's our anniversary

[Joss]
Put on your best suit
I've got something for you
I'll cover you in kisses
Cos baby I adore you
Your touch leaves me breathless
And I only get weaker
I will be there regardless, for my man
I'm glad you're my man

This day always reminds me of, the reason I'm with you
I'll never search for love again
I've found the truth in you

[Chorus]

Forever I'll be here and waiting
(I'll stay the same though times are changing)
We were meant to be together
(No one could love you better)
Got a question for you
(Tell me I'm the answer)
Baby let's stay in love

I love you
I love you too

[Chorus x2]

. . .



You're everything I ever wanted
And all the things I really didn't need
Cos you're an uptown girl
And your body, it speaks to me
Said, you ever take it to the wild side?
Put the pedal to the floor?
Come let's break a few rules
Girl your love is criminal

[Chorus]
You look like something straight from a magazine
You're my beauty queen
Slow motion love like a clip on a movie screen
You're my beauty queen

Here's her Victoria Secrets
She puts the g on a string
Make a blind man walk on water
She can make the holy man sin
Over and over and over
You're like the fatal attraction
You're my lifetime addiction

[Chorus]

Breakfast in the morning
Loving in the evening
Caught up in the moment
Now you got me feelin
I'm a selfish lover
Let me take it further
After me, there'll be no other

[Chorus]

. . .



[Chorus]
When I'm tired of all the lying
Have no one to hold on to
When the tears are falling
The sun seems to hide behind the moon
Open arms I'm calling
Nothin will ever replace
Though I know you're watching
I wish that I could see your face

Sometimes I find a corner and I just wanna be alone
I don't wanna say no prayers
And I won't answer the phone
You showed me everybody goes through problems
Everybody cries
But no one can show you what to do when you lose someone in life

I need you now even more than the air I breathe
You always intervened when things got too hard for me
Where are you now?
Can you reach me somehow?

[Chorus]

Many times though I'm surrounded, I still feel so alone
That's when you send a sign to me that somehow makes me strong
It's only when you've been there that the words become so true
I'd give up everything I own for one last dance with you

I think about you each and every single day
I promise I won't let your memory fade away
How are you now?
Can you tell me somehow?

[Chorus]

Sometimes I find a corner and I break down and cry
I wish that I could see your face
