Lyrics: Everything But The Girl - Missing



Classic Fridays
Missing
Everything But The Girl


I step off the train I'm walkin' down your street again
And past your door but you don't live there anymore
It's years since you've been there
And now you've disappeared somewhere
Like outer space you've found some better place

And I miss you
Like the deserts miss the rain
And I miss you, oh
Like the deserts miss the rain

Could you be dead?
You always were two steps ahead of everyone
We'd walk behind while you would run
I look up at your house and I can almost hear you shout
Down to me where I always used to be

And I miss you
Like the deserts miss the rain
And I miss you
Like the deserts miss the rain

Back on the train I ask why did I come again
Can I confess I've been hangin' 'round your old address?
And the years have proved to offer nothin' since you moved
You're long gone but I can't move on

And I miss you
Like the deserts miss the rain
And I miss you, yeah
Like the deserts miss the rain

And I miss you, yeah
Like the deserts miss the rain
Oh, I miss you, yeah
Like the deserts miss the rain

I step off the train I'm walkin' down your street again
Past your door, I guess you don't live there anymore
It's years since you've been there
And now you've disappeared somewhere
Like outer space you've found some better place

And I miss you
Like the deserts miss the rain
And I miss you, yeah
Like the deserts miss the rain

And I miss you, and I miss you
Like the deserts miss the rain
And I miss you, yeah
Like the deserts miss the rain

Deserts miss the rain
Like the deserts miss the rain
Like the deserts miss the rain
Like the deserts miss the rain

Lyrics: Bruno Mars - When I Was Your Man



When I Was Your Man
Bruno Mars


Same bed, but it feels just a little bit bigger now
Our song on the radio, but it don't sound the same
When our friends talk about you all that it does is just tear me down
Cause my heart breaks a little when I hear your name
And it all just sound like uh, uh, uh

Chorus:
Hmmm too young, too dumb to realize
That I should have bought you flowers and held your hand
Should have gave you all my hours when I had the chance
Take you to every party cause all you wanted to do was dance
Now my baby is dancing, but she's dancing with another man

My pride, my ego, my needs and my selfish ways
Caused a good strong woman like you to walk out my life
Now I never, never get to clean up the mess I made
And it haunts me every time I close my eyes
It all just sounds like uh, uh, uh, uh

Repeat Chorus

Although it hurts I'll be the first to say that I was wrong
Oh, I know I'm probably much too late
To try and apologize for my mistakes
But I just want you to know
I hope he buys you flowers, I hope he holds your hand
Give you all his hours when he has the chance
Take you to every party cause I remember how much you loved to dance
Do all the things I should have done when I was your man
Do all the things I should have done when I was your man

Third single from his sophomore studio album "Unorthodox Jukebox" via Atlantic Records! Written by Bruno Mars, Philip Lawrence, Ari Levine, and Andrew Wyatt. Produced by The Smeezingtons.

Lyrics: Edwin McCain - I Could Not Ask For More



Classic Fridays
I Could Not Ask For More
Edwin McCain


Lying here with you
Listening to the rain
Smiling just to see the smile upon your face
These are the moments I thank God that I'm alive
These are the moments I'll remember all my life
I found all I've waited for
And I could not ask for more
Looking in your eyes
Seeing all I need
Everything you are is everything to me
These are the moments
I know heaven must exist
These are the moments I know all I need is this
I have all I've waited for
And I could not ask for more

Chorus
I could not ask for more than this time together
I could not ask for more than this time with you
Every prayer has been answered
Every dream I have's come true
And right here in this moment is right where I'm meant to be
Here with you here with me

These are the moments I thank God that I'm alive
These are the moments I'll remember all my life
I've got all I've waited for
And I could not ask for more

Repeat Chorus

I could not ask for more than the love you give me
'Coz it's all I've waited for
And I could not ask for more
I could not ask for more

Lyrics: David Foster & Olivia Newton-John - The Best Of Me



Classic Fridays
The Best Of Me
David Foster & Olivia Newton-John


So many years gone, still I remember
How did I ever let my heart believe
In one who never gave enough to me

And so many years gone, a love that was so wrong
And I can't forget the way it used to be
And how you change the taste of love for me

You were my one more chance, I never thought I'd find
You were the one romance, I've always known in my mind
No one will ever touch me more
I only hope that in return
I might have saved the best of me for you

And we'll have no ending, no no
If we can hold on
And I think I've come this far because of you
Could be no other love but ours will do

You were my one more chance, I never thought I'd find
You were the one romance, I've always known in my mind
No one will ever touch me more
I only hope that in return
I might have saved the best of me for you

No one will ever touch me more
I only hope that in return
No matter how much we have to learn
I've saved the best of me for you

Lyrics: Matchbox Twenty - If You're Gone



Classic Fridays
If You're Gone
Matchbox Twenty


I think I've already lost you
I think you're already gone
I think I'm finally scared now
You think I'm weak
but I think you're wrong

I think you're already leaving
Feels like your hand is on the door
I thought this place was an empire
But now I'm relaxed
I can't be sure

I think you're so mean
I think we should try
I think I could need
this in my life
I think I'm just scared
I think too much
I know this is wrong it's a problem I'm dealing

Chorus:
If you're gone
maybe it's time to go home
There's an awful lot of breathing room
But I can hardly move
If you're gone
Baby you need to come home
Cuz there's a little bit of something me
In everything in you

I bet you're hard to get over
I bet the room just won't shine
I bet my hands I can stay here
I bet you need
more than you mind

I think you're so mean
I think we should try
I think I could need
this in my life
I think Im just scared
that I know too much
I can't relate and that's a problem I'm feeling

Repeat Chorus

I think you're so mean
I think we should try
I think I could need
this in my life
I think I'm just scared
do I talk too much
I know this is wrong it's a problem I'm dealing

Repeat Chorus

Lyrics: Kanye West ft. Twista & Jamie Foxx - Slow Jamz



Classic Fridays
Slow Jamz
Kanye West ft. Twista & Jamie Foxx


Are you gonna be?
Say that you're gonna be

Jamie Foxx
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh...

Chorus (Jamie Foxx):
She said she wants some Marvin Gaye, some Luther Vandross, a little Anita, will definitely set this party off right
(Are you gonna be, are you gonna be, are you gonna be, are you gonna be, are you gonna be? Well well well well well)
She said she want some Ready for the World, some New Edition, some Minnie Ripperton, and definitely set this party off right
(Are you gonna be, are you gonna be, are you gonna be, are you gonna be, are you gonna be? Well well well well well)

Kanye West
I told her to drive over in your new whip
Bring some friends you cool with
I'm gonna bring the cool whip
Then I want you to strip
See you is my new chick
So we get our grind on
She be grabbing, calling me Biggie like Shine home
Man, I swear she fine homes
Why she always lying though
Telling me them diamonds when she know they rhinestones
She got a light skinned friend look like Michael Jackson
Got a dark skinned friend look like Michael Jackson
I play 'Ready for the World' - she was ready for some action
My dawg said you ain't no freak, so you got to prove my man wrong
I'm a play this Vandross
You're gonna take your pants off
I'm gonna play this Gladys Knight
Me and you're gonna get right

Repeat Chorus 2x

Twista
Got you looking at the gliss at my hands and wrists
While I'm laying back smoking on my cannabis
When it come to rocking the rhythm like Marvin and Luther
I can tell you ain't no messing with Kan-man and Twist
From the Chi and I be
Sipping Hennessy
Play some R&B
Trying to smoke a B
Looking properly
Feeling on a G?
And always (well well well well well)
Come with me and sip on some Evelyn Champagne
You ain't know Twista can work it like the Whispers
Hit the stop light, get into some Isaac
The rims still moving so I'm bumping little spinners
While I'm smoking on a B
Dipping through the streets
Bumping R&B
And I got to leave
something to the 23's?
And I do it (well well well well well)
With my earth and the wind smoke a fire
Let me when get your sheets wet listening to Keith Sweat
Put you in a daze for maze
Fullfilling our every temptation slow jamming having deep sex
You ready for the world girl
Come on over make me touch you all over your body baby don't say no to me
An every moment you controllin' me I'm loving the way you be holding me when I be listening to Jodeci
And when I come over and bend your ass
You be bumping Teddy Pendergrass
I'd hit it from the back to the melody to roll it slow
Now I gotta go up in it fast, but I'm gonna finish last
No matter how much of a thug you see
I still spit it like it's R&B, so to the club with me
And with some Luther come on and hope you finna and still be in love with me

Repeat Chorus 2x

Twista
Baby drop another slow jam
And all us lovers need hold hands
And if you ain't got no man hop up in my Brougham
I keep it pimping like an old man
You got to roll with the plan
Cause after that then I
Take it to the dome
Then I got to bone
Stay up in the zone
Got to get you home
Gotta run up on
And I do it (well well well well well)
Baby drop another slow jam
And all us lovers need hold hands
And if you ain't got no man hop up on my brohem
I keep it pimping like an old man
You got to roll with the plan
Cause after that then I
Take you to my home
And we could get it on
Disconnect the phone
Just to get you goin'
Trying to make you moan
And I do it (well well well well well)
