Ooo-ooo-yes sir

Please come inside from that storm

(Joel Davis & Anita Baker)

Uhhh uhhh
There's a picture in my memory
Of the days when we first met
When solo became duet
And the words you spoke compelled me
Yes your touch could tranquilize
These feelings I memorize

It's a perfect love affair
And so good to know when you need me
I'll be there
It's a perfect love affair
And so good to know that you love me and you care, baby, you care

Now I welcome love's affliction
Though its symptoms I deny
Contention, we harmonize

Yes a heart of ice was melted
And the mountains they did move
Baby, you've nothing left to prove

'Cause it's a prefect love affair
And so good to know that you love me and you care
It's a perfect love affair
And so good to know that you love me and you care

Look into my eyes
Love won't be denied
Oh, my darlin' just
Love me, feel me, hold me
Touch me now, baby, now

Ooaah ooh, baby, right now
Ad lib

. . .


(Gerald Levert, Marc Gordon & Anita Baker)

I've always told you
I'd give you anything
My baby you've been my best, my only friend
There's nothing like the joy you bring

I wonder what would happen
If you would trust in me
I'd make you believe, I'd make you see
No need to run from me

I'd make you feel like never before
Here I stand, heart in hand, help me find the door
Anybody can see baby, you've been hurt before
Let me heal your pain, won't ever hurt no more

Whatever it takes to make you happy, baby
Whatever it takes to make you smile
Whatever it takes to make you feel good, baby
I'll be around

One moment spent near you
Removes all my pain
Your miracles soothes me
Your hurricane moves me
I cannot explain

Burdens get heavy
Become too much to bear
Honey, don't you say nothing
Hold on, I'm coming
I want you to know that I'll be there

I'll make you feel like never before
Willing and able, baby, open up the door
Anybody can see, baby, you've been hurt before
Let me heal all your pain
Never let you hurt anymore
Oh, ahh, ahh, hmmmm
My, my, my, my, my
Hmmmmmmm

. . .


(Terry Britten & Graham Lyle)

If I lost you now
It would take my heart from me
I can't imagine life without you
The love of you, baby

Lately I confess
I've been short on tenderness
Too much time on work, I guess
Not enough on you

Now if I forgot to tell you I love you
I really got no excuse, no excuse

Because you're beautiful, my one desire
You're my soul's inspiration
And if I didn't say it, well I do now
You're my sweet inspiration- baby, baby

If I'm feelin' low
I've only got myself to blame
'cause I can always share the load
When I'm near you- uh, huh

You can rescue me, baby
You bring out the best in me
I'm the girl I want to be
When I'm near you, huh

I may need reminding to say I love you
But heaven know that I do, yes I do

Because you're beautiful, my one desire
You're my soul's inspiration
And if I didn't say it, well I do now
You're my sweet inspiration- baby, baby

From the day I met you, baby
Yes, I knew instinctively
Whatever our future
Together we were gonna be, baby

Huh, my baby
Nothin', nothin's sweeter to me than you, baby
You, baby
Yes sir I love you, baby

Hey-now, I love you baby
Hey, ahh yahh
Ad lib

. . .


(Anita Baker)

You don't know what I've been through
It's been rough I'm telling you
All night long toss and turn
Nobody's bridges left to burn, ah

I tell you my story about a lonely girl
With no one to love her in the whole wide world
You know she was lonely, lonely, eh

Didn't want to feel this good
Didn't know I ever could
You spoke your voice so sweet
Child the sound surrounded me

I tell you my story about a lonely girl
Had no one to love me in the whole wide world
You know I was lonely, lonely, eh

Unlock my chains child set me free
I'm a different woman, look at what you done to me
Don't know what you gave me, but it feels alright
Don't know how you did it, do it again tonight

I'm walkin' on over, and
I'm depending on you to answer
Won't cha be my friend, eh, hey- baby
Hey, hey, hey, hey

Didn't want to feel this good
Didn't realize that I ever could
You came here, you came to stay
I'm so glad, 'cause babe, you made my day, yeah
Yes, you did, uh

. . .


(Anita Baker & Vernon Fails)

Yes, I've been around and I watch you, baby
I know you're the one
I see you and I cry inside, darlin'
The moment has come- but I

I try to hide what I'm feelin', baby
Don't want you to know
It's a feeling so deep in my heart, baby
I can't let it go

No one to blame
If I miss this, sho would be a shame
No one to blame, baby
Sho is a shame

There ain't no reason to doubt me, baby
You know I don't lie
I tell you from deep down inside, darlin'
I'm willin' to try, yes I am

This ain't no game that I'm playin', baby
Our love is for real
And I know that it's strong
I know what I feel, yes,

No one to blame, baby
If I miss this, sho would be a shame
No one to blame, darlin'
I miss this, sho would be a shame

No one to blame, baby
Sho is a shame
No one to blame, baby
Sho is a shame, my baby

Life offers no prize, no guarantees
My baby, for missed opportunities
And I won't let you walk by
I've got to try, tellin' you I know it's right
It's the truth, don't you lie, baby-yes

You know that I tried to resist you, baby
But I'm losin' my fight, ah yes
I mean this, I really do mean this, baby
Know that I'm tellin' you no lies

'Cause this ain't no game that I'm playin', darlin'
this thing is for real
And I want you to know that it's strong
I know what I feel baby, yes

No one to blame, baby
Ad lib

. . .


(Anita Baker, Michael Powell & Vernon Fails)

Where dide you go
I've been looking for you
Where did you go

I'm pacing the floor
When you're gone from me
I'm pacing this floor
Baby, I stand by you so close
Caution is not my approach
My heart I expose, ooh
More than you know

Wasting my time
Everybody says I'm
Wasting my time

I must reply
That the time I waste
Is certainly mine

Darlin', I stand by you so close
Caution is not my approach
My heart I expose, mmmmmm
More than you know

Darlin', I stand by you so close
Caution is not my approach
My heart I expose

More than you know
More than you know
More than you know
More than you know
Ad lib

. . .


(James McBride)

Life is always changing, constant rearranging, but
Nothing changes with you- ya never do
I go to different places, see a million faces, but
None fine as you-baby I
Have the honor, to love someone kind and true
I thank my lucky stars for bringing me here to you- like

Water flows down from a hill, and yellow grows on daffodils
I'm gonna learn to love you better, to the letter, baby
Like morning dew on southern pines
And honey that bees leave behind
I'm gonna love you sweet, to the letter
You find no better- baby, baby, love me so
Ho-oh-you love me so

The look that's in your eyes, gives me my courage
My strength, I draw from you, ya know I do, babe
The depth inside your soul- fills my well of fantasies, uh
I fill my cup with you-baby I

Have the honor, to love someone kind and true
I thank my lucky stars for bringing me to you-you-love

Like water flows down from a hill, and yellow grows on daffodils
Gonna learn to love you better, baby, to the letter
Like morning dew on southern pines
Honey that bees leave behind
Gotta love you sweet, to the letter
You'll find no better, babe, you love me so

Ooo-I know you love me-baby I
Got the honor, to love someone kind and tru
Thank my lucky stars for bringing me here to you-you

Like water flows down from a hill, and yellow grows on daffodils
Gonna learn to love you better, baby, to the letter
Like morning dew on southern pines
Honey that bees leave behind
Gotta love you sweet, to the letter-aah
Ooh-la

. . .


(Anita Baker, Vernon Fails & Michael Powell)

Mmmm-Hmmm

I can remember stories, those things my mother said
She told me fairy tales, before I went to bed
She spoke of happy endings, then tucked me in real tight
She turned my night light on, and kissed my face good night
My mind would fill with visions, of perfect paradise
She told me everything, she said he'd be so nice
He'd ride up on his horse and, take me away one night
I'd be so happy with him, we'd ride clean out of sight

She never said that we would, curse, cry and scream and lie
She never said that maybe, someday he'd say goodbye

The story ends, as stories do
Reality steps into view
No longer living life in paradise-or fairy tales-uh
No, uh-huh-mmm-mmm

She spoke about happy endings, of stories not like this
She said he'd slay all dragons, defeat the evil prince
She said he'd come to save me, swim through the stormy seas
I'd understand the story, it would be good for me

You never came to save me, you let me stand alone
Out in the wilderness, alone in the cold
My story ends, as stories do
Reality steps into view
No longer living life in paradise-or fairy tales-yes

I don't look for pie up in the sky, baby
Need reality, now, said I
Don't feel the need to be pacified,
Don't cha try
Honey, I know you lied

You never came to save me, you let me stand alone
Out in the wilderness, alone in the cold
I found no magic potion, no horse with wings to fly
I found the poison apply, my destiny to die

No royal kiss could save me, no magic spell to spin
My fantasy is over, my life must now begin

My story ends, as stories do
Reality steps into view
No longer living life in paradise-or fairy tales-
Eh, hey, hey-ee-mmm, mmm

(laugh-laugh-laugh) Lord have mercy
(laugh) ooo
Mmm, mmm (laugh) ooo-mmm-oh Lord
