Whitney Houston Album

words and music by: L.A Reid and Babyface

From the moment I saw you
I went outta my mind
Though I never believed in, love at first sight
But you got a magic
That I just can't explain
Well you got a, you got a way that you make me feel
I can do, I can do anything for you baby
I'll be down for you baby
Lay all my cards out tonight
Just call on me baby
I'll be there in a hurry
It's your move, so baby
Baby decide!

Chorus:
Whatever you want from me
I'm givin' you everything
I'm your baby tonight
You've given me ecstasy
You are my fantasy
I'm your baby tonight

From the second you touched me
I was ready to die
I've never been fatal, you're my first time
I feel like an angel, who just started to fly
Well you got a, you got a way that you make me
Feel I can, feel I can, do anything for you baby
I will fly for you baby, hold on and enjoy the ride
I'm not in no hurry, We can fly all night baby
It's your move, now baby
Baby let's fly!

chorus

Whatever I do boy
It's all about you baby
And ain't the truth boy
I'm helplessly in love with you
What else can I do boy
But be there for you baby
You got a, you got a way that you make a me
Feel I can, feel I can do any, do anything

chorus

Looks like I'm fatal, It's all on the table
And baby you hold the cards, You got the magic
And I've got to have it, I don't want the pieces
I want every single part, I'll be your angel
I'm ready and able, Whatever you want is fine
Whenever you're ready, just call on your lady
And I'll be your baby tonight

chorus

words and music by: Eric Foster White

One night not long ago
I fell for you
Too easy to let go
She was one from your past
One of the few
You said it didn't last

Now Romeo you know I can't believe
Your tongue would slip so easily
I know you think I oughta let it be
But get it right, next time
That's the end of me

Chorus:
My name is not Susan
So watch what you say
If you still need her
Then be on your way
Don't wanna hear about Susan
She's got nothin' on me
So show some respect for the love you receive
My name is not Susan
(No, no, no, no, no -- get it right)

Last night you were asleep
Deep in a dream
I heard you call her name
Then you turned to embrace
I froze in place
Never to be the same

Now Romeo you know I never knew
My heart would bust so easily
I know you think I oughta let it go
But get it right next time
Say good-bye to me boy

chorus

I never want to be the girly that you "call" one and only
You know the kind of girly that you would call when you get lonely
I never should have let you in,
A damn shame -- forgot my name!
Well, anyway

chorus

Don't want to hear about Susan
My name ain't Susan (X3)
Ya better get it right!

I used to cry myself to sleep at night 
But that was all before he came 
I thought love had to hurt to turn out right 
But now he's here 
It's not the same, it's not the same 

Chorus: 
He fills me up 
He gives me love 
More love than I've ever seen 
He's all I've got, 
He's all I've got in this world 
But he's all the man that I need 

And in the morning when I kiss his eyes 
He takes me down and rocks me slow 
And in the evening when the moon is high 
He holds me close and won't let go 
He won't let go 

chorus 

words and music by: L.A Reid and BabyFace

How could I throw away a miracle?
How could I face another day?
It's all of my doing, I made a choice
And today, I pay
My heart is full of pain

How could you understand, the way I feel?
How could you relate to so much pain?
Seems as though nothing can comfort me
So today, I pray
That someone should listen, for...

Chorus:
Nothing should matter
Not when love grows inside you
The choice is yours
There's a miracle in store...
Nothing should matter
Not when love grows inside you
A voice of love is crying out
Don't throw love away
There's a miracle in store...

How could I let go of a miracle?
Nothing cold ever take its place
Thought I was looking, out for myself
Now it seems the pain
Is all that I have gained
I wonder if I could be your miracle
I wonder if I could spare you pain
Seems as though nothing will comfort me
Lord, less today, I pray
That you should come listen

chorus

Don't ever throw away your miracle
Don't let it slip away
Nothing should matter

chorus

words and music by: Luther Vandross, H. Eaves

Who do you love? (X4)

I got a feeling you're the boy for me
I bet your love can set me free
I feel a love thing coming on
It started week then got oh so strong

Strong enough to rock the world
Straight up I want to be your girl
So I keep praying to the stars above
That it's me who you're gonna love

Chorus:
Am I the one?
Is she the one?
I wanna know
Could it be me?
Won't you tell me so
Who do you love
You've got to say
Don't want to go
Why can't I stay

I keep pushing so you'll be mine
We'll be loving baby over time
My sensitivity gets so high
It keeps me dreaming that you're my guy

Then I have to stop and check myself
Could it be that you love someone else
I can't give in to jealousy
So touch me now if you love me

chorus

words and music by: Sam Dees

I hope that you realize baby, just what you mean to me
Hey you where I run for cover, your loving shelter for me
And when I find myself needing some lifting up
One night with you and that always is enough
Hey you make being in love, a true rare affair
So take me I'm your prisoner

Chorus:
Will you sentence me to be your lover for life
Your lover for life
Will you sentence me, I want to be you lover for life
Your lover for life

I just want to hear you say
You'll be my lover, lover for life
Capture, there's no getaway
You're my lover, my lover for life

Under your spell or under my own power
It really doesn't matter to me
See I fell in love the first time I saw you
And have been falling in love ever since

You heard my testimony, you've seen my evidence
Hey, it's a crime of passion, in every sense
And justice won't be served, till you stay here in my world
Take me I'm your prisoner

chorus

words and music by: L.A Reid and BabyFace

I believe in roses,
But only from the heart
And if it's not sincere baby,
Then I don't want no part

I believe in one love baby, true monogamy
What I don't know can't hurt me, that's not the way I see

If you believed in me, you wouldn't mess around
It's not like I don't know you been with every girl in town

You got a lot of nerve to think, I just close my eyes
While you walk around so full of it, I give you my surprise

I don't need your kinda love
I don't need your kinda trust
I don't want you, anymore
I don't need your kinda kisses
I don't want to be your Mrs.
I don't want you, anymore

I believe that angels watch everything we do
And all the wrong your doin', just might come back on you

I believe in phone calls, when your not by my side
Especially when it's lonely, in the middle of the night

If you believe that true love is only made in bed
Lord have mercy on you, chivalry is dead

You got a lot of nerve to think, to think that I'm still down
While you've taken me for granted, boy I'm thru, I'm outta town

(Chorus)

So baby,(so baby)
You can kiss this girl goodbye
I'm through with ya
Movin'on with my life
No more pain, no more fears
I'm movin' on
I'm keepin' on
I'm through with all the fears

Your kinda love
Your kinda trust
I don't want you, don't need you,
can't have you
Your kinda kisses
To be your Mrs.
I don't want you

(Chorus)

words and music by: Derek Bramble, Franne Golde

In a world where dreams are few
You've got me baby, I've got you
You're the one that makes me feel brand new


Sometimes love can wear you out
Chill your soul baby, make you doubt
That's you'll never find the one that's true

All my life I've longed for this
Someone who makes me happy
Let's seal this moment with a kiss
I wanna know
And nothin's gonna stop me cuz'

(Chorus)

I've been to the bottom
But I'm back on top
And I'm feelin' the rhythm
As we start to rock
When ya get down to it
I belong to you


Though I'm not afraid to let it show
I'll tell the world I want everyone to know
There's nobody who does me like you do

All of my love is yours tonight
I live to make you happy
Nothin' has ever felt so right
I want it all
And nothin's gonna stop me cuz'

(Chorus)

When you touch me tender
And you reach my soul
When I start to weaken
And I lose control
When you get down to it
I belong to you

(Chorus)

(Duet with Stevie Wonder)
words and music by: Stevie Wonder

Since I don't know when
We've been only friends
No more but no less
Our friendship we had at best

A voice to console
An ear to confide
That someone you tell
Your deepest of feelings inside


But we didn't know
When we held each other it would feel so right
We didn't know
On that night we'd be falling in love
I looked at you
You looked at me
In ways we never thought we would be
But like tomorrow's today's mystery
We didn't know

Be it big, be it small
On you I could call
Nothing but to ask
You'd be right there in a flash

A hand I could hold
That friend I could trust
But the love that we shared
Was just platonic between us

(Chorus)

That's what happens when innocent friends
Turn serious lovers
And we're so happy that we've fallen in love
And still can be best of friends

When they'd break your heart
And when they'd make you cry
We both would confer
You should give love one more try

We searched everywhere
For true love to find
Yet who'd think it ws us
That we were longing for all the time

Cause we didn't know
When we held each other it would feel so right
We didn't know
On that night we'd be falling in love
I looked at you
And you looked at me
In ways we never thought we would be
But just like the future no one can see
We didn't know

(Chorus)

words and music by: Michael Masser, Gerry Goffin

I've been waiting such a long time
For a love that's real to come my way
Gonna take some getting used to
Now that love is here to stay

After we make love
It's good to be lost in the afterglow
All I'm dreaming of
I just can't let the feeling go

After we make love
I feel I've been touched by
All that heaven and earth will allow
All that matters here andnow

Now the world is full of wonder
You've turned my life around in just one day
I love the spell you've put me under
Just one kiss can take my breath away

(Chorus)

All the lonely days and nights
Were well wroth going through
I'm so glad I didn't give my heart away
So I could give it all to you

(Chorus)

words and music by: Rhett Lawrence, Bebe Winans, Ricky Minor

Who's to say it's easy
Sometimes life's not fair
I've heard some say just knock the door will open
And when it does you'll find love standing there

And if it's true I'm knockin'
Come open up the door
My heart's been right here waiting
For someone to adore

Well if it's true I'm knockin'
Come open up the door
My heart's been right here waiting
For someone to adore
Say if it's true

In sight we have to choices
And it's told to me to do or die
And every word he speaks makes me certain
Beyond the door's life's reason why

(Chorus)
(Knock the door will open)
The door will open
(Look and you will find it)
Look and you will find it
For certain it's true for me and for you
When love comes and knocks
Here's the right thing to do

(Chorus)

Ask me what I want
Peace of mind
Ask me what I don't
Waste of time
Tell me that it's true
And you will find me knockin'

Written by: Whitney Houston, Benjamin Winans, Keith Thomas

There's a chance that maybe in this life I'll find 
True love and peace of mind 
There's a chance that maybe I can reach my goal 
And soar to the other side 
Good things come to those who wait 
I'm just afraid that I might sit here and wait too late, so... 

CHORUS: 
I'm taking a chance on loving you 
No matter the price I'll pay my dues 
I'm taking a chance on loving you 
They tell me I'm crazy 

There's a chance that maybe once I could be wrong 
But wrong never felt so right 
There's a chance that maybe I'm risking much too soon 
But our hearts just fell in tune 

Good things come to those who wait 
I'm just afraid that I might sit here and wait too late, so...

chorus 
I don't know much about you, but I know I can't live without you 
I am telling all my friends goodbye 
My friends can't understand but, I know I've got to try
Here's my reason why, I'm in love, that's all I know

chorus

Written by Steve Winwood and Will Jennings

VERSE 1
Think about it
There must be higher love
Down in the heart or
Hidden in the stars above
Without it, life is wasted time
Look inside your heart,
I'll look inside mine
Things look so bad everywhere
In this whole world, what is fair
We will walk the line
And try to see
Falling behind in what could be

CHORUS
Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love
Where's that higher love
I keep thinking of

VERSE 2
Worlds are turning
And we're just hanging on
Facing our fear
And standing out there alone
A yearning and it's real to me
There must be someone
Who's feeling for me
Things look so bad everywhere
In this whole world, what is fair
We will walk the line
And try to see
Falling behind in what could be

CHORUS

BRIDGE
I will wait for it
I'm not too late for it
Until then I'll sing my song
To cheer the night along
I could light the night up
With my soul on fire
I could make the sun shine
From pure desire
Let me feel that love come over me
Let me feel how strong it could be

CHORUS
