(I'm sorry, I'm sorry)
Verse 1
It's like I missed a shot,
It's like I dropped the ball. (Man I'm Sorry)
It's like I'm on stage, and I forget the words. (Damn, I'm sorry)
It's like building a new house, with no roof and no doors. (Damn, I'm sorry)
It's like trying to propose, and I ain't got the ring. (Oooh damn I'm sorry)
But girl I've apologized a million times before. (I'll apologize a million more)
So here it comes again for all the wrong I've done. (so get ready babe)
Here's one million one.

Chorus
This is my sorry for 2004.
And I ain't gonna mess up no more, this year.
I'm 'a take this one chance,
and make it real clear.
I'm sorry (for May) and I'm sorry  (for June)  sorry (for July) in
case I don't tell you.
August, September, October, November 'till your December. I'm Sorry. (I'm sorry
2004)

Verse 2
It's like stayin' out at night, and way too much to drink.( Damn, I'm sorry)
It's like you change your hair,
and I don't say a thing. (Damn I'm sorry)
It's like your fallin' back to sleep,
with no kiss and before we hear. (Damn I'm sorry)
It's like I forgot your gift,
on 02 14 03. (Damn. So sorry!)
But girl I've apologized a million times before. (I'll apologize a million more)
So here it comes again for all the wrong I've done. (so get ready babe)
Here's one million one.

I can think of younger days when living for my life
Was everything a man could want to do
I could never see tomorrow, I was never told about the sorrow

And how can you mend a broken heart?
How can you stop the rain from falling down?
Tell me how can you stop the sun from shining
What makes the world go round?
Oh how can you mend this broken man?
How can a loser ever win?
Please help me mend my broken heart and let me live again (la la la la)

I can still feel the breeze that rustles through the trees
And misty memories of days gone by
We could never see tomorrow, no one said a word about the sorrow

How can you mend a broken heart?
How can you stop the rain from falling down?
Please tell me how can you stop the sun from shining?
What makes the world go round?
Oh la la la la, la la la la
Oh, how can a loser ever win?
Please help me mend, mend my broken heart and let me live again

Listen baby
How can you mend a broken heart?
How can you stop the rain from falling down?

Ladies and Gentlemen the time is now, ya'll all been waitin, we gone rock this
now (swiss beats)

Oh yea....oooooo Oh yea

[Verse 1]
It dont matter

[Chorus]

And win the game girl (you got the ball), cuz its your world (you got my heart)

[Verse 2]
It dont matter
That you see me all the time in the club
It dont matter
Cuz deep down inside a player wants some love
It dont matter
That I can get a girl to come home with me (home with me)
But I dont do one night stands no mo (no mo)
Girl im tryin to let you know

That I wanna make it right, that I need you in my life
down by 2 points and a 3 can win the game

[Chorus]

[Bridge]

You got it, you got it, you got it
Girl just take it to the hole
You got it, you got it, you got it

[Chorus 2 x's]

What is sexy? Love's in the eye of the beholder
Sex me, Baby we can get closer, freaky
Up in the crib, Come on over, sex me
Your so sexy, What is sexy?

Baby I saw you through my rearview
And you know I'm a big man
They say to know me is to love me
And you love me for who I am
So Imma win some, I lose
But the point is to chose
That one that keeps my happy
And my point of chosing you
Is the fact that you are so sexy, yeah

[Chorus]

I've been thinking (girl)
About you (girl)
If this world was mine, then its yours (girl)

Imma keep so I can floss with my boys on the weekends
And, I'm not scared of commitment
But the big man, Handles his business
And my business is you and me, coz you are so sexy...

Long ago, and, oh, so far away
I fell in love with you before the second show.
Your guitar, and it sounds so sweet and clear, but you're not really here.
It's just the radio.

Don't you remember you told me you loved me baby?
You said you'd be coming back this way again baby.
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh, baby.
I love you, I really do.

Loneliness is such a sad affair, and I can hardly wait to be with you again.
What to say, to make you come again?

(feat. Pretty Tony)

Before you go
Make this moment sweet again

We won't say goodnight
Until the last minute

And my heart will be in it

For all we know
This may only be a dream
We come and we go
Like the ripple on a stream

So love me, love me tonight
Tomorrow was meant for some
Tomorrow may never come
For all we know
We know

So love me, love me tonight
Tomorrow was meant for some
Tomorrow may never come
For all we know

Ladies and Gentlemen, this is a Jazzy Fizzle produshizzle.
I’d like to introduce yall to somebody
that you should already know.
Introducing Ruben Studdard.

I noticed lately we’ve just been getting right.
Our love is there it just needs some light.
I think we need to go back to basics.
Like when I used to call you on the phone
and tell you to get your fresh clothes on.
We need to start that again.
Baby listen, let me tell you what we gon do,
we gonna act like we brand new.
And I’ma take you to the spot where I first laid eyes on you.
And we gon dance tonight and hit that one-two step,
one-two step baby.
All night yea yea.
Tell the DJ to play our song.

My song, your song.
The way he did the night we fell in love.
And I held your hand. Do you remember that?
Yes I remember that.
Play our song and take me back to the night
I met my baby and I asked you to dance.
Do you remember that, yes I remember that.

You always runnin around and I work till the sun go down.
We hardly see one another.
And barely got time for each other.
And we need a break. We need to get this love back poppin.
And let the people know we still got it.
Here’s the way.
Let me tell you what we gon do,
we gonna act like we brand new.
And I’ma take you to the spot where I first laid eyes on you.
And we gon dance tonight and hit that one-two step,
one-two step baby.
All night yea yea.
Tell the DJ to play our song.

My song, your song.
The way he did the night we fell in love.
And I held your hand. Do you remember that?
Yes I remember that.
Play our song and take me back to the night
I met my baby and I asked you to dance.
Do you remember that?

Ooohh I, oh I, I just wanna take it back.
Ain’t nothing wrong with that.
Let’s get back to the love.
Ooohh I, oh I just wanna get back to me and you.
You know we’re all I do.

Time up Hold up Wait a minute now

Time up Hold up Wait a minute now
Gotta let u know how a playa feeling now

We got too much time and history
To let a mistake come in between
To let a mistake come in between
You and me
You and me

You want me to get down on my knees
Look i'm getting on my knees
You want me to beg, i'm beggin
Girl don't you, Girl don't you

[Chorus (Repeat 2x)]

Cuz you cussing me out, it turns me on
You cussing me out, it turns me on
Turns me on

You want me to get down on my knees

Time, is all we have

I'd rather see your silhouette,
once the candle's lit..oooooo

[Chorus:]
Hold me baby , keep it (keep it coming baby)
All night long(till after the candles burn)
And I will still be going on and on

Till afer the candles burn!

Everybody's looking for a something
One thing that makes it all complete
You'll find it in the strangest places
Places you never knew it could be

Some find it in the face of their children
Some find it in their lovers eyes
Who can deny the joy it brings
When you've found that special thing
You're flying without wings

Some find it sharing every morning
Some in their solitary lives
You'll find it in the words of others
A simple line can make you laugh or cry

You find it in the deepest friendship
The kind you cherish all your life
And when you know how much that means
You've found that special thing
You're flying without wings

So, impossible as they may seem
You've got to fight for every dream
Cos who's to know which one you let go
Would have made you complete

Well, for me it's waking up beside you
To watch the sun rise on your face
To know that I can say I love you
at any given time or place

It's little things that only I know
Those are the things that make you mine
And it's like flying without wings
Cos you're my special thing
I'm flying without wings

You're the place my life begins
You'll be where it ends
I'm flying without wings
And that's the joy you bring

(feat. Fred Hammond)
