Yeah, yeah,
Let love be

Baby,
Fell in love before he took your heart away.
And then he left you in the cold
And it's crazy, yeah
'Cause now you tell yourself you'll never fall in love again.
I know it's hard to let it go

But you gotta stop, breathe
Maybe it's no coincidence
That's you're here with me
Girl you should have a change of heart (Listen)

Everybody knows when you find true love you might not find it again
So take it by the hand
And let love be
Everybody knows when you find true love you might not find it again
So take it by the hand
And let love be (yeah yeah)
Let love be (yeah yeah)
Let love be

Baby
I know sometimes you want to run away
Why don't you run into my arms?
And maybe
I can help you see, help you see things my way
I see you for the star that you are

But you gotta stop, breathe
Maybe it's no coincidence
That you're here with me
Girl you should have a change of heart (yeah yeah)

Everybody knows when you find true love you might not find it again so take it by the hand
And let love be
Everybody knows when you find true love you might not find it again so take it by the hand
And let love be (yeah, yeah)
Let love be (yeah, yeah)
Let love be

Sometimes it's written across the sky
Might be in disguise
Sometimes it's easy to see
That's it's a beautiful thing
Let love be
Sometimes the writing's on the wall
Or maybe those words are just too small
For you to see
So open your eyes
And let love be

Everybody knows when you find true love you might not find it again so take it by the hand (take it by the hand)
And let love be
True love comes when you find yourself
And that's where the story begins
So take it by the hand
And let love be. (yeah, yeah)
Ooh let love be yeah. (yeah, yeah)
Ooh let love be.
Oooh, oh yeah
Let love be.

I must admit I was crazy
Must have been love drunk
Intoxicated, with your love
But now I look around
Things just ain't the same to me
And I see it now
That you were not for me

I didn't have to do it
But I put all my heart in it
You said you loved me
When you didn't
And you did it a-again
Did it a-again
I didn't have to do it
But I put all my heart in it
Said you loved me
When you didn't
And you did it a-again
Did it a-again

After all that we been through
You still wanna let me down
I keep givin it to you
You'd think Id know by now
You would think I'd know better
Just by the way that you get down
You threw my heart like whatever
You would think I'd know by now

See the lies
See the tears that fall from my eyes
Wouldn't you think, wouldn't you think

First time around
I end up doing
You would tell a lie
And I could not see through it
But I look around
And you just ain't the same to me
And I see now that you're not the one for me

I didn't have to do it
But I put all my heart in it
Said you loved me
When you didn't
And you did it a-again
Did it a-again
I didn't have to do it
But I put all my heart in it
Said you loved me
When you didn't
And you did it a-again
Did it a-again

After all that we been through
You still wanna let me down
I keep givin it to you
You'd think I'd know by now
You would think I'd know better
Just by the way that you get down
You threw my heart like whatever
You would think I'd know by now

You would think that I would get it
You would think I'd understand
But your lies keep me confused
Why don't you get another hint
But don't worry I'm not stayin
This is your game, and I'm not playin
Cause I know you don't really care for me

See the lies
See the tears that fall from my eyes
Wouldn't you think, wouldn't you think
You'd think Id know by now

After all that we been through
You still wanna let me down
I keep givin it to you
You'd think I'd know by now
You would think I'd know better
Just by the way that you get down
You threw my heart like whatever
You would think I'd know by now

After all that we been through
You still wanna let me down
I keep givin it to you
You'd think I'd know by now
You would think I'd know better
Just by the way that you get down
You threw my heart like whatever
You would think I'd know by now

See the tears that fall from my eyes
Wouldn't you think, wouldn't you think

I'm ecstatic
I feel the magic
It's everlasting
I think that you were meant to be alive on this very night
With me
I see, it clearly
The dream you hear about
and never truly think its realistic till it blows your mind
I never thought i could understand
I was searching me
and now i finally see

[chorus]
I see that some people fight for love
They stick with it
Just can't quit it
Some people hide from love
they run from it, cause they don't want it
When you got a love and its good like it should be
Makes you never wanna give it up
cause you know that some people fight for love
And I believe it's true cause I'd do the same for you

You're the reason, the air I'm breathing
so don't go leaving
cause loving you is the only thing that ever really touched my soul
I'm protective, of my blessings
Glad I kept it
I never really thought about the future till i saw my life
Finding it's purpose
so very worth it
And now I know that love is really worth it


And that's why,Some people fight for love
They stick with it
Just can't quit it
Some people hide from love
They run from it, cause they don't want it
When you got a love and it's good like it should be
Makes you never wanna give it up
Cause you know that some people die for love
And I believe it's true cause I'd do the same for you

It's hard to be, and good to keep
And once you're with it, it's hard to leave
You can't help but run wild with imagination
It'll change you life from wrong or right
And then you'll touch, touch the sky,
And now I don't see how I made it though the night

But I see how there's some people who fight
Some people fight for love
They stick with it
just can't quit it
Some people hide from love
They run from it, cause they don't want it
When you got a love and it's good like it should be
Makes you never wanna give it up
Cause you know that some people die for love
And I believe it's true cause I'd do the same for you

Some people fight for love,
(I don't wanna do it no more)
Some people hide form love,
(It just feels so good)
But when you got a love and it's good like it should be
Makes you never wanna give it up
Cause you know that
Some people fight for love

[1st Verse]

Memories of her face they just keep playing like a drum inside my head
baby will you make it stop?
And I feel so separated from the truth and everything she ever said
could it all be for none?

[Hook]

how could she say to me it's over when we've just begun?
I gotta find a way to tell her

[Chorus]

girl its you, has been on my mind cause you been gone too long
girl its you, I wish I could fight to ask you what went wrong
girl its you, and with you its where I know my heart belongs can't you see there's only one for me and girl that's you

[2nd Verse ]

just another chance is all I ask of you to show you how I feel did I give you way to much?
I kissed your lips I felt your hips and what we've did it felt so real you couldn't say it wasn't love

[Hook]

how can you say to me it's over when we've just begun I gotta find a way to tell her

[Chorus]

girl its you, has been on my mind cause you been gone too long
girl its you, I wish I could fight to ask you what went wrong
girl its you, and with you its where my heart belongs can't you see there's only one for me and girl that's you

[3rd Verse ]

don't you wanna come back home tell me why should love only be a dream I don't know you don't want to be alone cause you're the one and you should be with me.

I been thinking bout it and baby

[Chorus]

girl its you has been on my mind cause you been gone too long girl it's you I wish I could fight to ask you what went wrong girl it's you and with you its where my heart belongs can't you see there's only one for me and girl that's you

girl that's you there's only one for me and girl that's you

How do I get close
When she looks like an angel
A moment of her time just seems impossible to me
It's hard to find the words, to get to know this stranger
I'm scared of what she'll say if what I say sounds incomplete
And it feels like we belong together
Can someone tell me where do I start

Cuz, I can't keep on feelin' the way I do
I can't keep on, hiding my heart from you
I got to say something before
Someone else comes through,
I can't keep on loving you,
From a distance

She's always on my mind, there's no room left for thinking
I'm tired of waiting slowly fading it needs to happen now.
Cuz I'm running out of time, and I feel this ship is sinking
The doors are closing I am frozen I need her around
And it feels like we belong together
Can someone tell me where do I start

Cuz, I can't keep on feelin' the way I do
And I can't keep on, hiding my heart from you
I got to say something before
Someone else comes through,
I can't keep on loving you,
From a distance
From a distance
From a distance
From a distance

I can't hide
I can't keep on feelin' the way I do
And I can't keep on, hiding my heart from you
I got to say something before
Someone else comes through,
Cuz I can't keep on loving you,
I can't keep on loving you from a distance.

Ohhh- Yeahhhh-
I don't mean to bother you, I see you with your girlfriends
Wanna know if you got any plans for the weekend
Can I pick you up around 7, you let me know when.
That's when she says she's got a man…
I don't see a ring on your fingers so what you sayin'
why your girls look at you so crazy, c'mon, stop playin'
If it's not too much can I at least know what your name is
Girl why you tellin' me u cant

Don't be afraid to fall in love
cause I don't believe in giving up
Please give me a chance to earn your trust
Cause I know I can be everything that you need
Don't be afraid to fall in love
And don't ever say that is just too much
Cause you never know I could be the one
Girl we're not all the same,
babe don't be afraid to love

You say that every man is lookin' for just one thing
You say they love you but they really don't know what it means
How can you think that way when you know nothin' about me
I say you runnin' away
I'll buy you nice things that I cannot pronounce
And if you let me love you, babe I will turn you on
I'll stay committed and I promise I would be around
your life will not be the same

Don't be afraid to fall in love
cause I don't believe in giving up
Please give me a chance to earn your trust
Cause I know I can be everythin' that you need
Don't be afraid to fall in love
And don't ever say that is just too much
Cause you never know I could be the one
Girl we're not all the same, babe don't be afraid to love

If you try
Its not a waste of time
You will find
That love is what you need in your life
Just let it go
Nobody's gonna hurt you
Don't say no
Tell me what I need to do
To make you see that you don't have to be that way
Just don't be afraid!

Wooo -
Don't be afraid
don't be afraid
to fall in love!

Don't be afraid to fall in love
cause I don't believe in giving up
Please give me a chance to earn your trust
Cause I know I can be everythin' that you need
Don't be afraid to fall in love
And don't ever say that is just too much
Cause u never know I could be the one
Girl we're not all the same, babe don't be afraid to love

Hooo -
Don't be afraid!

Maybe it was wrong to say
Nothing as you walked away
Baby I know you've been confused
Telling me that it's too late
I thought you say goodbye for good
But you're still here with me
How we get so miss understood

Cause you say (you say)
You ain't got time for me
Actions speak loud of your words ??
You try to say you've rather be
All by yourself
Oohh but I can see the way
The way you look at me
And baby I don't believe (believe what you say)
You say oohhh

You know that it's cool to look
Look the way you do tonight
Girl you know I'm on to you ??
Cause something just don't add of right (no)
I thought you said you felt unsure ??
Oohh but hearts don't lie
Cause now you're back at my front door
Oohhhh

Cause you say (you say)
You ain't got time for me
Actions speak loud of your words
You try to say you've rather be
All by yourself
Oohh but I can see the way
The way you look at me
And baby I don't believe believe what you say
You say oohhh

You thought I didn't care
I thought you wouldn't stay
I hope we can go furth from on this day ??
Let start over again we don't have to pretend
That it's over it's over

Cause you say (you say)
You ain't got time for me
Actions speak loud of your words
You try to say you've rather be
All by yourself
Oohh but I can see the way
The way you look at me
And baby I don't believe believe what you say
You say oohhh

Maybe I was wrong to say
Nothing as you walked away...

It's hard for me - To think
Hard for me - To eat
Losing sleep cause you're gone
& I can't do it alone
Since you can't be found
Hasn't hanging around
And I can't take it
I just can't do it alone

I've never thought to take it this far
Tell me how am I supposed to make it
Being here all by myself, just me
You're killing meeee

Ooh you broke my heart and left it wide open... dammmn
How can you be apart from mee
That's like trying to breathe with one lung
Or trying to live with no water
Just like a daughter with no father
That aint the way it's supposed to be
How can you be apart from meeee, me, yeah x2

I can't hardly
Stand aside I was feeling weak
Cause you're gone
Why you wanna do this alone
You say you had enough
How you're gonna give up
Girl I'm missing the love
And I can't fake it yeah
And I don't wanna do this alone, no

I never thought I could take it this far
Tell me how am I supposed to make it
being here all by myself, just me
You know you're killing meeee

Ooh you broke my heart and left it wide open... dammmn
How can you be apart from mee
That's like trying to breathe with one lung
Or trying to live with no water
Just like a daughter with no father
That aint the way it's supposed to be
How can you be apart from mee

Almost like the coldest only night
Without the stars up in the skies
I never saw this coming never
you know you're killing me

Ooh you broke my heart and left it wide open... dammmn
How can you be apart from mee
That's like trying to breathe with one lung
Or trying to live without no water
Just like a daughter with no father
That aint the way it's supposed to be
How can you be apart from me
How can you be apart from me
How can you be apart from mee
How can you be apart from mee, mee, yeah

Oh girl why you wana play with my emotions
Causing a commotion
I think about you all of the time
You know it's vicious
Looking so delicious
Then you tell me he's suspicious

3 AM,
Wide-awake, you're asleep.
It feels like days,
Yeah, since the last time that I held you.
I can tell you've been crying.
Never thought to ask you why.
Oh no I never meant to hurt you.
Is this the way that it goes when it's falling apart?
Maybe it's time to let go?

'Cause what if the best is yet to come?
What if we're broke but not undone?
What if we're not what we've become?
How do I know?
How do I know when it's over?
What if I'm wrong?
What if we're hanging on too long?
I don't know which way to go.
How do I know?
How do I know when it's over? Oooh
How do I know when it's over? Ohhh

Pictures frozen in a frame.
Love feels like a losing game.
Oh, I miss the way I used to miss you.
And I know I'll be all right without you in my life
Oh, but I just can't say goodbye

'Cause what if the best is yet to come?
What if we're broke but not undone?
What if we're not what we've become?
How do I know?
How do I know when it's over?
What if I'm wrong?
What if we're hanging on too long?
I don't know which way to go.
How do I know?
How do I know when it's over? Oooh
How do I know when it's over? Oooh

Is this the way that it goes when it's falling apart?
Maybe it's time to let go?

I don't know which way to go.

How do I know when it's over?
What if I'm wrong?
What if we're hanging on too long?
I don't know which way to go.
How do I know?
How do I know?
That the best is yet to come?
What if we're broke but not undone?
What if we're not what we've become?
How do I know?
How do I know when it's over? Oooh
How do I know when it's over? Oooh

Hey (Hey yeah)
Oooh (Hey yeah)
Yeah, yeah (Hey yeah)
Oooh-woah (Hey yeah)
Hey eh yeah (Hey yeah)
Oooh-woah (Hey yeah)
Oooh (Hey yeah)
Yeah (Hey yeah)

It's taken its toll girl.
The silence is cold.
We're stuck at a dead end.
And I'm starting to wonder
Did I say something wrong?
I keep asking the question
Will you turn around and come with me?
Or should I read the signs and leave and let you be?

Now I'm standing at this roadblock
And there's no way around it.
I've been waiting for your mind to change
'Cause it feels so one-sided.

I saw us break, I watched us fall.
It made no sense to me at all.
You say that you will, but then you don't,
So I'm gonna take this step alone.
In my heart of hearts I always knew
This jump was way too far for you.
You say that you will, but then you don't,
So I'm gonna to take this step,
I'm gonna take this step alone.
Alone.

So give me a reason
Why you're on the outside when you should be here.
We're no good together so maybe it's better?
I'll walk alone but you'll always be near.
Now there's no room for settling.
I gotta do this, I need to. (Ohhh)
But this mirror that I'm looking in
There's no reflection with you.

'Cause I saw us break, I watched us fall.
It made no sense to me at all.
You say that you will, but then you don't,
So I'm gonna take this step alone.
In my heart of hearts I always knew
This jump was way too far for you.
You say that you will, but then you don't,
So I'm gonna to take this step,
I'm gonna take this step alone.

The sanctity I found deep in your arms,
It was a false alarm
And it burns,
Yeah it hurts.
I lie awake at night
And think of what we could have been if it worked
Then we chose to go our separate ways
Instead of meeting each other half way
And if I had to choose girl
I'd have you by my side

I saw us break, I watched us fall.
It made no sense to me at all.
You say that you will, but then you don't,
So I'm gonna take this step alone.
In my heart of hearts I always knew
This jump was way too far for you.
You say that you will, but then you don't,
So I'm gonna to take this step,
I'm gonna take this step alone.
Alone, alone.
I'm gonna take this step alone.
All alone.

Woke up this morning
Needed to talk
Picked up the phone and started to call
And that's when it hit me
That you were gone

So many questions
Things they've been said
So much confusion
Going around in my head
And so many reasons that just
Don't' make sense

Chorus
I cry to carry on
But something's missing inside
I just want to know if you're above me
Show me some kind of sign

Do you still hear me
When I call your name
Do you with me when I loose my way
When it gets hard let me know what to do
Ohhh Yeah

You always told me that you never go
I need you to show me that I'm not alone
Do you still hear me when I sing for you
Show me you do

How do I start to
Make sense of what's left
Still carry the memory of you
In my head
And I'm just not ready to let you
Go yet
Ohhhh Nooooo

But I know you're proud of
The man that I am
I know you'd want me
To go on ahead
And I give it all just to see you again.

Chorus
I cry to carry on
But something's missing inside
I just want to know if you're above me
Show me some kind of sign

Do you still hear me
When I call your name
Do you with me when I loose my way
When it gets hard let me know what to do
Ohhh Yeah

You always told me that you never go
I need you to show me that I'm not alone
Do you still hear me when I sing for you
Show me you do

I know that I see someday
Ohhh someday
I will see you again
I will see you again
Someday, Ohhh someday
I will see you again
I will see you again

Always, always, always, always.

Tonight again I gotta go away
And I'm thinking ‘bout how to apologize for leaving you alone ooh yeah
But I know there's nothing that I can say
To make it easier on your heart while we are apart

So here's something that you can take
To hold on to when you're lonely yeah
‘Cause it's important to me that you believe

I might not always
Get to spend my time with you
And I might not always
Do all that I'm supposed to do
We have some bad days
But it don't change
That I always have and always will
I'll always love you girl.
I'll always love you girl.
I'll always love you girl.
I'll always love you girl.

I see the look you got on your face
And it's killing me to know that I
Am making you feel that way (making you feel that way)
Somehow I've gotta make it okay
Believe me I dream you every night
And I miss you every day

So here's something that you can take (Ohhh)
To hold on to when you're lonely (lonely)
‘Cause it's important to me that you believe

I might not always
Get to spend my time with you
And I might not always (Ooh-woah)
Do all that I'm supposed to do
We have some bad days
But it don't change (Don't change)
That I always have and always will
I'll always love you girl.
I'll always love you girl.
I'll always love you girl.
I'll always love you girl.

Tears fill your eyes
As time goes by
While I can't help that I am not always around
Girl lets not fight
You know I try
So for the time that I'm here can you love me now?

I might not always (Ohh baby)
Get to spend my time with you (Ohh-ohh-ohh)
And I might not always (Hey)
Do all that I'm supposed to do (I'm gonna do what I'm supposed to do yeah)
We have some bad days (Oh yes we have yeah)
But it don't change (Don't change it)
That I always have and always will,
I'll always love you girl. (Ooh yeah)
I'll always love you girl. (Ohh-ohh)
You know I'll always love you girl. (Ooh)
Always, always
You know I'll always love you. (Always love you)
Always, always
You know I'll always love you. (Woah-woah, woah-woah)
Always, always
You know I'll always love you. (Ooh yeah yeah yeah yeah)
Always, Always
You know I'll always love you.
