Verse 1:
There's something that I want to say
I feel a little out of place
But I need you to make that change
You promised to keep me out of the rain
I love the cars and everything,
The diamond rings but I loved you much more, baby

Hook:
You said, that you were gonna stop when you
Had enough, do what you had to do
Now you, like the profession you've made it for yourself
You said, you cared about me and you
Now all, you wanna do is hustle you
Gotta choose, whatcha gone do when I'm not worth it to you baby

Chorus:
Never thought I'd be afraid to trust
Somebody that I love so much
If I can get him out of the streets
Then he could come back to me
Now I see that there ain't no us
Baby to me that's a definite plus
If I can't get you out of the streets
Then you don't need to be with me

Verse 2:
Do you love me like you say
Maybe you could get away
From the life of doin' the wrong things
You promised
Don't make me read about it babe
Think of me before I'm gone
Cause when I'm gone, it will be to late

Hook

Chorus(2x)

Instrumental Break

Chorus

Bridge(2x):
Visit the streets or me
The job has taken over pain
I know I've got to leave
Cause you weren't there for me

Brandy - Excuse me can I please talk to you for a minute?
Monica - Uh Hu sure you know you look kinda familiar.
Brandy - Yeah you do to, but I just wanted to know do you know somebody named? Oh you know his name.
Monica - Oh yeah definitely I know his name.
Brandy - Well I just want to let you that he's mine.
Monica - Huh no no he's mine!
Chorus:
You need to give it up
Had about enough
It's not hard to see
The boy is mine
I'm sorry that you
seem to be confused
He belongs to me
The boy is mine

Brandy:
Think its time we got this straight
Sit and talk face to face
There is no way you could mistake
Him for your man are you insane

Monica:
But see I know that you may be
Just a bit jealous of me
But your blind if you can't see
That his love is all in me

Brandy:
See I tried to hesitate
I didn't want to say what he told me
He said without me he couldn't make it 
Through the day, Ain't that a shame

Monica:
But maybe you misunderstood
Cause I can't see how he could
Wanna change something that's so good
All my love was all it took
(The boy is mine)

Chorus:
You need to give it up
Had about enough (Enough)
Its not hard to see
The boy is mine (Boy is mine)
I'm sorry that you (Sorry that you)
Seem to be confused (Confused)
He belongs to me
The boy is mine

Monica:
Must you do the things you do
You keep on acting like a fool
You need to know its me not you
And if you didn't know it's cause it's true

Brandy:
I think that you should realize
And try to understand why
He is apart of my life
I know its killing you inside

Monica:
You can say what you wanna say
What we have you can't take
From the truth you can't escape
I can tell the real from the fake

Brandy:
When will you get the picture
Your the past I'm the future
Get away it's my time to shine
If you didn't know the boy is mine

Chorus:
You need to give it up
Had about enough (Enough)
It's not hard to see
The boy is mine (To see the boy is mine)
I'm sorry that you (Sorry that you)
Seem to be confused (Seem to be confused)
He belongs to me (He belongs to me the boy is mine)
The boy is mine

Chorus:
You need to give it up (Ohh ooh ooh oh ohh oh oh )
Had about enough (Had about enough)
It's not hard to see (He's mine! He's mine! He's mine! He's mine!)
The boy is mine
I'm sorry that you (I'm so sorry you seem to be confused)
Seem to be confused
He belongs to me (He belongs to me)
The boy is mine

Monica:
You can't destroy this love I've found
Your silly games I won't allow
The boy is mine without a doubt
You might as well throw in the towel

Brandy:
What makes you think that he wants you
When I'm the one that brought him to
The special place thats in my heart
He was my love right from the start

(Monica) Give it on up

(Monica) It's not hard to see
(Brandy) The boy is mine oh ah...

I'm sorry that you
Seem to be confused
He belongs to me
The boy is mine!

Verse 1:
I've been talkin to some friends of mine about you boy
They say you're bout to have a child
When you goin' tell me bout it
This other chick your sleepin' with
Now you gotta deal with it
Hope you've found happiness
I've found myself in such a mess

Hook:
With you
and I put way to much love 
Into you
Through the one day
we'll be true
and time after time
I stuck with you
but now I'm too through

Chorus:
Cause I've been the fool
Sittin' round too long 
I think its about time
That I ring da bell and carry on
I forgave you before
But its too far long
I think its bout time
That I ring da bell and move along

Verse 2:
You said it was a mistake
On one night you saw her late
Must of been for pure affection
Boy you didn't have protection
You had to think of me
But you did never see
Yourself in this predicament
You never thought that it would catch up

Hook

Chorus(2x)

Hook
How awful the way
You treated me
Gave you everything
So hurt to say
You didn't tell me
Can't wait to leave

Chorus twice(fading)

f/ J.D.

JD:
Baby baby tell me what's up? Can you hear me?
Or do I do I need to turn it up? (Huh huh)
Baby baby tell me what's up? Can you hear me?
Or do I do I need to turn it up? (Huh what)
Baby baby tell me what's up? Can you hear me?
Or do I do I need to turn it up? (Huh huh)
Baby baby tell me what's up? Can you hear me?
Or do I do I need to turn it up? (Huh what)

Monica: Verse 1
Boy this evening was it only me
Feeling completely down to be open
Down to be open for some satisfaction
Didn't want to say yes, afraid of your reaction
I knew it was wrong, for feeling this way
Especially the thought of givin' in on the first date
Couldn't let go, it stayed on my mind
At the end of the night I had to decide, I was thinkin'...

Chorus:
I should make a move but I won't
I know your probably thinkin' something is wrong
Knowing if I do that it won't be right
I don't get down on the first night

I should make a move but I won't
And then you probably thinkin' something is wrong
Knowing if I do that it won't be right
I wanna get down, but not the first night

Monica: Verse 2
We was chillin' watching your T.V.
I felt it was comin' the closer that you got to me
Wanted to touch you, wanted to kiss you
And some how in one night, discover I love you
Felt so right, but it felt so wrong
And look how we're caryin' on
Tryin' to say things to get me to stay
But my watch is telling me it's getting to late, I'm thinkin'...

Chorus

Bridge: If you, want me, you got to know me(Got to know me)
And if you want my love (My love) you gotta wait my love
Ba Baby that's the way its got to be 
Get to know me (Get to know me) so we can do this, Oooohhh

I should (echo)
I know your probably thinkin' (echo) (I want I want babe)
Knowin' if I do (echo) (I want I want babe)
I don't get down, on the first night

I should make a move, but I won't
I know your probably thinkin' something is wrong
Knowing if I do that it won't be right
I wanna get down, but not the first night

Repeat Chorus Until the End


. . .



Verse 1:
1. Oh, Its, been such a long long time
Looks like I got you off of my mind 
But I can't, just the thought of you
Turns my whole world misty blue

Oh honey, just the mention of your name 
Turns a flicker to a flame
Listen to me good baby
I think of the things we used to do 
And my whole world turns misty blue

Ohhhh, baby I should forget you
Heaven knows I've tried 
Baby, when I said that I'm glad we're through
Deep in my heart I know I've lied, I've lied, I've lied

Repeat 1

Ohhhhhhh, no I can't no I can't
I can't forget you 
My whole world turns misty blue

2. Ohhhh My love
My whole world turns misty blue

Baby(5x) I should forget you 
My whole world turns misty blue

Repeat 2

Baby, baby I should forget you
Misty blue

Verse 1:
When I first saw you I already knew
There was something inside of you
Something I thought that I would never find
Angel of Mine

I looked at you looking at me
Now I know why they say the best things are free
I'm gonna love you boy you are so fine
Angel of mine

How you changed my world you'll never know
I'm different now you helped me grow

Hook:
You came into my life sent from above
When I lost all hope you showed me love
I'm checkin' for you boy your right on time
Angel of Mine

Verse 2:
Nothing means more to me than what we shared
No one in this whole world can ever compare
Last night the way you moved is still on my mind
Angel of Mine

What you mean to me you'll never know
Deep inside I need to show

Repeat Hook

I never knew I could feel each moment
As if they were new
Every breath that I take
The love that we make
I only share it with you

Verse 1 (only to first Angel of Mine)

Hook

How you changed my world you'll never know
I'm different now you helped me grow

Verse 1 (only the part after first Angel of mine to Second Angel of mine)

f/ Outkast

Verse 1:
Can't believe you would leave me this way
Feeling kinda bad from the last things we said today
Can't believe you would turn and walk away
I know we would do this again and again

Hook:
You say you love me
I'll come back with I hate you
Only takes me a day to 
Realize I'm in love with you
You say 'Oh, see ya'
I'll come back with 'Just stay, boy'
If you don't want my love
Then I have no choice this time

Chorus:
Tell me baby what to do
I ain't trippin' over you
Any, any other time
I, I remain the same
I don't know what's up wit you
Any, Any other time
Remember I'm gone be fine

Verse 2:
You said you didn't mean it that's fine
You wanna take it back cause your havin' a change of mind
Sometimes saying sorry won't do
Then somedays I can't do without you

Hook

Chorus(2x)

Rap(OutKast):
Yo, yo
Across the way
The milkman delivered this
Everyday on schedule
Ain't good use to cry over spilled lactose
When you got these vegetables
The four food groups
Ain't nothing but
Four ways to keep four families paid
Oprah went from one line to
Telling y'all silly ass rock upstate

Yeah
So for one, girl
When I met you
I'ma say this
You's was fine
You traveled around the block
I let you drive the 'Lac one time
Maybe your hearts at stake
Some of the people around
You act of fate
'Cuz you can't
Cake up, wake up
Picture make up
Straight up like that

Chorus three times fading

Inside...
Inside...
Inside...
Inside...

Verse 1:
Last night when I saw you
With somebody new
You asked how I've been
And I, I told you I was fine
And as you held each other close
I smiled and said it's good to see you
And you didn't know

Chorus:
Inside
I'm cryin' baby
Inside
I'm dyin' baby
I don't wanna let you see
Baby what you've done to me
So I keep it all inside (inside)
Inside (inside)

Verse 2:
Sometimes when you call me
I don't know what to say
You say I've been on your mind
And we'll talk again sometime
You say you're glad we can be friends
I say I'm over all the heartache
But it's all pretend

Chorus:
Inside
I'm cryin' baby
Inside
I'm dyin' baby
I don't wanna let you see
Baby what you've done to me
So I keep it all inside 
Inside

Outside I'm smilin' baby
Outside these tears just can't be found
But I'm just breaking down

INSIDE...
Don't you know that I am dyin' baby (dyin' baby)
I don't wanna let you see
Baby what you've done to me
So I'll keep it all INSIDE...

Yeah, I'm cryin' baby
Inside

I don't wanna let you see
Baby what you've done to me
So I'll keep it all inside
I'll just keep it all inside
Inside

Verse 1:
If he keeps changing for no shoes, I need 2
Come right back at me alone again
Maybe I didn't need the use, out of him
Didn't come with no type of warranty

Hook:
There's no one
That I adore
More than your love
It hurts me more
To let you down
And again
There's no one
Who could ever 
Show me the
Way to never
Try someone
Better than you

Chorus(2x):
Should I take him back
After what he did
Hurt me in ways that I
Can't begin to replace
How I feel so I'll just go away

Verse 2:
Don't wanna go through the same games, again
He's no good and that's just it for me
Does it everytime he returns, there's no use
I'll just be the one left in the end

Hook

Chorus(4x)

Don't wanna go through the same thing
The memory remains
Don't wanna through the same games

Chorus(2x)

Hook(2x)
There's no one I adore
And you know it hurts me more
To let you back into my life
You ain't never treat me right

Chorus twice fading

f/112

Verse 1:
Oceans apart
Day after day
And I slowly go insane
I hear your voice
On the line
But it doesn't stop the pain
I see you next to never
How can we stay forever

Chorus:
Wherever you go
Whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you

Verse 2:
I took for granted
All the time
That I thought would last somehow
I hear the laughter and I taste the tears
But I can't get near you now
Oh can you see it baby
You've got me goin' crazy

Chorus

Hook:
I wonder how we came so survive
This romance, but in the end just with you
I'll take the chance~~~~~

Instrumental Break

Chorus

I'll be right here waiting for you
Oh, I love you
Oh whatever it takes
Whatever you do
Where ever you go
I'm never leavin' you
I'll be right here waiting for you

See ya from across the room

Verse 1:
It's Friday night and
I'm going to a party 
With my man, to dance
As soon as we get in
He is lost with his friends and 
I'm there, in a trance

Hook:
I can tell that someone's looking at me
And I didn't come here by myself
But he left me here now someone else wants me
So it must mean he didn't care
I'm goin' on

Chorus:
See ya from across the room
Like you wanna know me
If you wanna make a move
Meet me on the dance floor
Though I'm here with someone else
He¡®s not what I'm looking for
Instead I've seen him ¡®cross the room
Meet me on the dance floor

Verse 2:
As the night goes on
Each glance makes me wonder
What is on, your mind
More than a dance as you pull 
Up to me it feels, alright

Hook

Chorus(2x)

Let me know what you wanna do
Can't you tell that I'm missing you
I'm lettin you know that your right on time
Cause I'm lookin for someone else tonight

Chorus(2x)

Meet me on the dance floor(3x fading)



. . .



Verse 1:
I looked at you a thousand times
This time when I looked at you
There was somethin' new
How could I be so blind
We shared our secrets in the dark
And though we were only friends
I don't know when the feeling changed within my heart

Chorus:
Baby
Ooh, I keep it to myself baby
Ooh, I'm fallin in love with you
Ooh, The harder it gets cause
You don't know the love I'm feelin'
Ooh, I keep it to myself baby
Ooh, I'm fallin in love with you
Ooh, I don't wanna push you away
Cause no one makes me feel like you do

Verse 2:
I dream of you all through night
Holding you tenderly right here with me
Wrapped in my arms so tight
But when I start to tell you how I feel
You tell me 'bout someone new whose right for you
If you only knew my loves for real

Chorus

I'm wonderin' if you feel the same way I do
Then we both could be together forever
Why do I hide all my feelings inside 
If I know your the only one for me
The deeper that it gets
The harder that I fall, fall baby

Chorus

. . .



Verse 1:
When your feeling lost in the night,
When you feel your world's just ain't right
Call on me, I will be waiting
Count on me, I will be there
Anytime the times get too tough,
Anytime your best ain't enough
I'll be the one to make it better,
I'll be there to protect you,
See you through,
I'll be there and there is nothing
I won't do.

Chorus:
I will cross the ocean for you
I will go and bring you the moon
I will be your hero your strength
Anything you need
I will be the sun in your sky
I will light your way for all time
Promise you,
For you I will.

Verse 2:
I will shield your heart from the rain
I will let no harm come your way
Oh these arms will be your shelter
No these arms won't let you down,
If there is a mountain to move
I will move that mountain for you
I'm here for you, I'm here forever
I will be your fortress, tall and strong
I'll keep you safe,
I'll stand beside you, right or wrong

Chorus:
I will cross the ocean for you 
I will go and bring you the moon (yeah, yeah)
I will be your hero your strength
anything you need (I will be..)
I will be the sun in your sky
I will light your way for all time
Promise you
For you I will

For you I will, lay my life on the line
For you I will find your heart
For you I will die
With every breathe, with all my soul
I'll give my world
Put your faith in me (put you're faith in me) 
And I'll have to leave it be

I will cross the ocean for you (I will cross the ocean for you)
I will go and bring you the moon
Promise you (Promise you)
For you I will, I will, I will, I will, 

I will cross the ocean for you 
I will go and bring you the moon
I will be your hero your strength
Anything you need, (Anything you need)
I will be the sun in your sky (yeah, yeah)
I will light your wayt for all times
Promise you (I promise you)
For you I will (Ooooh)
I promise you
For you I will
