1. Missing You

Standing here looking out my window
My nights are long and my days are cold
Cause I don't have you
How can I be so damn demanding?
I know you said that it's over now
But I can't let go

[1] - Every day I want to pick up the phone
And tell you that
You're everything I need and more
If only I could find you

[2] - Like a cold Summer afternoon
Like the snow coming down in June
Like a wedding without a groom
I'm missing you
I'm the desert without the sand
I'm the one without a band
I'm a ring without a hand
I'm missing you

Driving 'round thought I saw you pass me
My rearview mirror's playing tricks on me
Cause you fade away
Maybe I'm just hallucinating
Cause my loneliness got the best of me
And my heart's so weak

[Repeat 1]

[Repeat 2]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Said I'm, I'm missing you

[Repeat 2 (2x)]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...



2. Shine

Oh babe
Little lady dying to find
The love that she can call her own
She can't be alone
And that's where she's calling my name, ooh yeah
See I know that she can love me deeply
If she could have the time
To get her look just right
And then maybe she could be mine

[1] - Cause she's just tryin to shine
To find something to get out of life
When will she realize
That the answer is right they're in front of her eyes

She go crazy thinking 'bout things
She can't afford to have today, heh
She need to come on and love me for me
I've been known to make a way, oh, oh, oh, ooh wee
I know me and I can't love her like that
I can be different from another man
Cause she's so fine
And somehow or someway
I'm gonna make that girl mine

[Repeat 1 (2x)]

Do you baby?
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do, uh-huh
Oh,uh yeah, hey, hey

[Repeat 1 till end]



3. A Song For Skye

You know a man could never truly understand
The beauty of a woman
Until he takes part in making one
I love you Skye
(My sunshine, you're my life, you're my life, you are)

[1] - You are my reason
Girl I sing this song to you
I love everything about you
You are my reason
Girl I sing this song to you
I love every little thing about you

Sitting here thinking 'bout you girl
And what you mean to me
And how long it took me to believe
How much you really change my life, oh yeah
In your eyes I can see the sunshine
Girl I'm so happy you're all mine

[2] - You are the reason my sun shines
Why everything seems just fine
Your daddy's so proud of you
And all the little things you do
Sometimes I ask my God why
He blessed me with you Skye
Just know that you were made from love
Give thanks above

[Repeat 1]

I was walking around lost for oh so long
Till little lady came my way
And it made me say
That I love you unconditional babe
Cause now I'm whole, you're in my soul
All I do is think about you baby

[Repeat 2]

[Repeat 1]

You're in my prayers every night
Asking God to keep you, yeah
Safe in His arms (oh yeah) it's alright (oh yeah)
Pretty little mama

[Repeat 1 till end]



4. Not Your Friend

Your girlfriend wants to get with me
I can tell how she looks at me
And how she licks her tongue at me
Then ask for a ride home with me
She likes what i do to you
Tell you all the things that you never knew
Like the sky her Ferrari's blue
Spending time in Honolulu

[HOOK]

I told you once before about that girl
She's so mysterious
So watch that girl
And keep that girl away from me
Cause she's jocking me
You're girl
Wanting me
I see her
Watching me
She's licking
Her lips at me
She's not your friend the girl
So shady
I see her
Watching me
She's licking
Her lips at me
She's not your friend your girl

Your friend wants to get wit me
She's hawking me down like you
wouldn't believe
Leaving her panties at
my doorstep too
Writing me letters dissin you
She's a freak like I told you so
Said she wanna go toe to toe
With me and your other girl Coko
Just st back baby watch her go

[HOOK]



5. Driving

[Intro]
You wanna come play my sex games baby
You still want me to taste you don’t you
Baby, baby yes I will

[Verse 1]
You and I alone up in my Benzie
Body got me going in a frenzy
Let’s be on our way to my hide away
So many things I like to do
Can’t hide the fact our hearts are racing
Yeah, I can smell anticipation
This is all for you please enjoy the view
I’ll show you things you never knew

[Chorus]
I will be driving and you will be riding
Riding all night long to a slow song
To a slow song
(Repeat)

[Verse 2]
Turn the music up that joint is soothin’
Can’t ignore how your body’s movin’
To kickin’ snare girl we’re almost there
I can’t believe my tinted eyes
Look at me you got my body swervin’
An evening on me girl you’re deservin’ to be pleased
I think you know what I mean

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Girl can we please go
Up and down and side to side
I will provide all that you need
We can speed or take it slow
Head to toe
You will be pleased

[Repeat Chorus]



6. Sex Games

I know you're lying all alone
Waiting for my call
To tell me that your body's craving me
Well the phone's not enough tonight
Let's make this reality

[1] - We can do the things that you don't get to do
Cause you lay all alone
Just let me sit here and watch you strip
For me cause I know I get you off

[2] - Is it too late to come on over?
And play sex games
Is it too late to slide on over?
And play sex games

Sex games, oh yeah, oh baby
Sex games

You know it's funny how you try
To hide your crazy sex drive
I must admit I wanna play
Your body pretty mama till the night
Becomes the middle of the day

[Repeat 1]

[Repeat 2]

[breakdown with ad-libs]

[Repeat 2 till end]



7. Conversate

Oh yeah, ooh

I know every now and then
We will have our problems
I know sometimes we won't see
Eye to eye, baby
Don't think I'm gonna sit here and
Let you turn away
Cause happy is where I wanna make you, so I gotta know

[1] - Tell me can we conversate
So we can get to learn each other
I don't think that we should wait
If this is a forever thing
I know we made a few mistakes
And in return we hurt each other
We really need to conversate
If this is a forever thing

At first I wasn't serious
About you and me
And in return me and my boys
Played the field ran the street
Because of you I've changed the
Man in me, I'm sincere
Now happy is what we gotta be so I gotta know

[Repeat 1]

Love was right in front of me
I was so blind baby I couldn't see
Now I really know for sure
Now I'm ready to be serious

[Repeat 1 till end]



8. Love Of My Life

Such vivid thoughts came running through my mind
All the time I had the chance to make you mine
I let that chance go and slip away
And I still regret it to this day
Cause I knew you were that special kind of love everywhere
As if you fell down from up above
But at that time I was to blind to see, oh and now

[1] - I may have lost the true love of my life
Cause I know in my mind I was afraid
I could belong to the wrong someone else
Cause I know in her heart she was afraid

The other night I saw you with your friend
Wondering if you are happy in love with him
We said hello and then I moved along
Felt so wrong but I knew I had to carry
Couldn't look each other up in the eye
Knowing if we did we be paralyzed
Knowing these feelings are still here, and I

[Repeat 1]

But if the day comes along that
You are by my side
Then I will not have to say, whoa

[Repeat 1 till end]



9. Wishful Thinking

Ooh, oh babe, ooh yeah

There's a reason why I'm trippin
Cause today I saw the finest thing life's ever known
Looking lovely from this distance
And inside of me I know I might be reachin' much too far
And I hope and pray that in my thoughts I'm not alone
Wondering if it's hindered by my flow
But I'm a working man, I can't afford to ball
But when our bodies touch my whole world
Just explodes, but that's just wishful thinking¡-

[1] - (Just hoping you'll be mine)
Wishing it was true that we two could be lovers
It's just wishful thinking
(Just hoping you'll be mine)
I feel like I kiss you a thousand times
If only in my mind

There's a reason why mind slippen
Cause today I saw the finest thing that my life's ever known
Get the time and some persistence
I believe that I could win the heart of little lovely one

And I hope and pray that in my thoughts I'm not alone
Reality just oughtta slap my face
Baby I'm a working man I can't afford to ball
But when our bodies touch my whole world just explodes
But that's just wishful thinking

[Repeat 1 with variations till end]



10. Crooked Letter

[1] - M I crooked letter, crooked letter I
I think I wanna hump that I
M I crooked letter, crooked letter I
I think I wanna hump that I
M I crooked letter, crooked letter I
I think I wanna hump that I
M I crooked letter, crooked letter I
I think I wanna hump that I

Can I call you on the phone
I don't wanna be alone
I think about you morning, noon and night
I long to hold you tight
I need you here tonight
Cause only I can rock your body right

[Repeat 1]

Now that I got you here
Lady have no fear
I got no place to go
Let's get down here on the floor
Let's sip a little more Moet
You ain't seen nothing yet
I'm gonna give you something that you won't forget

[Repeat 1]

This real was in awe by what I saw
So lets bang corners in my Rolex and escape the law
I'm realer then your man
Can plan and understand
You rather kick it with I than he believe in me so
Pay attention bout to rock the spot
Let's take advantage of the time we got
We here for a reason now
So when I close the door
Put yo palms on the floor

[Repeat 1 till end]



11. Already Have

You seem to think my love
For you could some how pass
Cause I was told by friends
About your scandalous past
Wish you could see inside
And know just how I feel
We said the past was dead
And I feel that way still

[1] - And through this life we'll
Walk together
And I no longer search to try to find
Cause I already have you baby.

[2] - I already have what I want
I already have what I need
You're beautiful inside and out
And baby you've got to believe
I already have what I want
I already have what I need
You're my number one, the only one
And baby you've got to believe

Lady I know that I am not a perfect man
But show what's best I can exactly where you stand girl
I can't even look no more
I know I found true love
So sorry if I made it seem like love has faded
You will never walk alone baby

[Repeat 1]

[Repeat 2]

Leaving you alone
Sending you without your love
Its not an option I could see
A choice that's right for me
Cause lady you know I belong to you
Don't wanna live no more
Cause living is that you are gone
You're in my heart, you're in my soul
I feel you deep down, way down deep in my soul

[Repeat 2 till end]



12. No Regrets

Loving you was incredible
It came so natural to me
Cause you were always available
For every one of my wants and needs
We always talked about settling down
Raising a family
But sometimes in life our plans ain't meant to be, ooh yeah

Baby I've tried
But couldn't say
What I really did want from you
Baby and now
My life, my life hasn't been the same
No, no, no babe
Can we give it a chance
Can we start all over again
Before we throw it all away, I just need to know

[1] - Here I go around again
Just won't let it die
Being wrong or being right
I just have to try
Love leads me right back to you
It never tells me why
I ain't gonna go through life
With no regrets

Now we can start by makin' apologies
But saying sorry ain't gonna make it right
All the spiteful things you done said to me
Cause I heard you a million times
But now I've learned how to express
What's really on my mind
So I'm telling you
I need you in my life

Baby I've tried
But couldn't say
What I really did want from you
My life, my life hasn't been the same
Can we give it a chance
Can we please give it one chance
Before we throw it all away, I just need to know for sure

[Repeat 1]

Baby now it's up to you
Cause livin' life without
You just ain't cool
So darlin' I want you back
Cause I'm a man with no regrets

[Repeat 1 till end]



13. Even Though

I remember summer girl
We fell apart
We were so close girl
I never thought another in my life
But you moved on
Hope you're doing fine
They say you're in love
But I know you still think of me

[1] - Even though he may kiss your body real nice
I know you think of me girl every time
Even though he makes love to you every night
I know you think of me girl every time

Now I hear he treats you real good
Makes you so happy but
That cannot compare to all the time and love that we've invested
It's o.k. I've moved on
So take care of yourself but
Just remember these words
I know you still think of me

[Repeat 1]

When he runs fingers through your hair
I know you think of me every time
When he gives you bubble baths
I know you think of me every time
When he dives for your treasure
I know you reminisce every time
About love we shared can't compare to nothing babe

[Repeat 1 till end]
