[No lyrics]

I went away for the weekend.
I sat back and started thinkin'.
And when it came to mind, I began to smile 'cause it's so true, it's so true.
Things never stay, the way I want them to be.
When I was younger back then, it was simplicity.
People care too much, but like the seasons; it all has changed.
I wish it wouldn't be that way.

(Chorus)
Can't bring back what used to be, life don't stay the same. Thinkin' 'bout what used to be. Everything changes. (Life always changes) Everything changes, changes.

There was a time when I gave up on people.
Disappointment just led me to be alone.
Then one day I was told, to just stand on my own, and it's so true, it's so true.
Just forgive no regrets, gon on and live and forget it.
You can't go back again, learn to live in the present.
Learn from your mistakes, like the seasons it all has changed. Oh, everyghing must change.

Chorus

(Bridge)
Oh it's time to heal. Time to love. Time to let go and time to move on. It's alright to laugh. It's alright to cry. It's alright to be and choose life. (Mmmm mmmmhmm)

Chorus 3x

I called you yesterday
You're too busy to have a conversation
I'm trying hard to hold onto us but
Seems like you don't want to stay

So tell me why is there someone taking my time?
(Please don't tell me know lies)
I can feel it

Tell me what the truth is, I don't want to do this
Ain't know use in tryin' to stay if you gon' turn me loose
Baby, if you gon' turn me loose, ya

Well you used to be sweet to me
Now it feels like a bad situation
You say you love me, but you have changed
I'm tired of running, running after you

So now, I'm gon' get my things and walk out the door
I don't wanna hear it no more
I know what the truth is, I ain't tryin' to do this
Ain't know use in tryin' to stay if you gon' turn me loose

Baby, if you gon' turn me loose
Why should I stay?

You need to let me go, babe
Turn me loose, ya
Someone gon' want me
Gotta let you go, gotta let you go, gotta let you go

So now, I'm gon' get my things and walk out the door
I don't wanna hear it no more
I know what the truth is, I ain't tryin' to do this
Ain't no use in tryin' to stay if you gon' turn me loose

Oh! Not gonna do it baby no more, hey
If you gon' turn me loose
(Why keep on tryin', tryin, you got to fight it, fight it)
Tryin' to hold onto us, hey
(Why keep on tryin', lyin')
If you gon' turn me loose

Say what you gonna do, if you gon' turn me loose?
Say what you wanna do, if you gon' turn me loose?
Say what you gonna do, if you gon' turn me loose?
Say what you gonna do, if you gon' turn me loose?

Say what you gonna do, if you gon'
Say what, what you wanna do, if you gon' turn me loose?
Somebody gonna treat me right, hey, better than you
Let me go, oh baby, baby, baby

Say what you gonna do, if you gon' turn me loose?
Say what you gonna do, turn me loose?
Say what you gonna do, if you gon' turn me loose?
Say what you gonna do? Oh, baby, if you gon' turn me loose?

Light that reflects in the mirror
Showing the essence of who I am
Made from pure perfection
I'm connected to the one, therefore I am

One to rise above all the ugliness
Evolve into a world of selflessness
I can see love and no love can be higher than this
What can be higher than this?

What can be higher than this?
What can be higher than this?
What can be higher than this?
You will find love, and no love can be higher than this

Feeling like everything going wrong
Take a step back and edit yourself
There's a hero in you waitin' to happen
Make the choice to take a chance and save yourself

You gotta let go of your insecurity
Explore the passion in your possibilities
You will find love and no love can be higher than this
What can be higher than this?

Love, ain't nobody love me like you do
So I gotta tell the world that
You are in everything that I do

Ain't nobody love me like you do
There's no love more higher than this
What can be higher than this?
Uh, uh, higher than this

I need someone to tell me
'Cause I don't see nothing else more
(Uh, uh, uh, uh, higher than this)
Don't nobody know the love that I feel right now

What can be higher than this?
There's no love more higher than this
What can be higher than this?
You will find love

See all you got to do is just let him in
(You will find love)
Anything you dream of is gonna to happen
(You will find love)
Just let it go

There's no love more higher than this
What can be higher than this?
Love, ain't nobody love me like you do
So I gotta tell the world that you are in everything that I do

Ain't nobody love me like you do
There's no love more higher than this
What can be higher than this?
What can be higher than this?

What can be higher than this?
What can be higher than this?
What can be higher than this?
What can be higher than this?

What can be higher than this?
What can be higher than this?
What can be higher than this?
What can be higher than this?

verse: tell me how
how did we get here
we keep runnin from all the answers
and leaving me here with questions
its not fare
why you never there
you keep leaving me here alone
please tell me what
what you wanna do
my heart belongs to you
and i dont know what to do
you say
that you still love me
its not in your actions so whats the distractions
were falling
falling apart
feels like our ending
its not like the start
please wont you tell me the truth
instead of always just leaving me here alone

choruse: alone
i
dont wanna be
alone
dont wanna be here alone(3x)
please wont u tell me the truth
instead of always just leaving me here alone

verse: please tell me
how did you and i become
then change from we to me
i see you changed
and im the one to blame
cause i noticed everything
and i never said a thing
so say whats on your mind
so we dont waste our time
tryna hold on to loose ties
oh baby
please wont you tell me the truth
instead of always just leaving me here alone

chorus:alone
i
dont wanna be
alone
dont wanna be here alone(3x)
please wont u tell me the truth
instead of always just leaving me here alone

bridge: if im apart of you
and your apart of me
then why cant we talk it out
and bring it back to we
you said forever youd never leave
its worth more than everything
and thats what i believe
the choses your making are breaking us up
your making it hard to identify love
im tryna keep us together
the only way to make it better
is dont let me be alone

chorus:alone
i
dont wanna be
alone
dont wanna be here alone(3x)
please wont u tell me the truth
instead of always just leaving me here alone

If I could, change my world things would be the same
There would still be love and pain
Cos' without it I would never change.
If I took back, (if I took back) all the love that (made me cry)
Would I ever realize, that I'm growing from mistakes
(that I've made), to make me (change)…

Unison: Love, it will never go
Love, even when you go, it never leaves
Love never changes… Love

Harmony: Love, it will never go
Love, even when you go, it never leaves
Love never changes… Love

That's why I know-ow-ow-ow, all of this is clear to me
Love is for eternity, that's the way God wanted it to be.
So I've learned,
Time don't stay still it moves fast – (oou, oou, oou, oou)
Nothing stays the same but love last – (oou, oou, oou)
And I can't keep living in the past, I gotta change

Unison: Love, it will never go
Love, even when you go, it never leaves
Love never changes… Love

Harmony: Love, it will never go
Love, even when you go, it never leaves
Love never changes… Love

Love never changes, love won't leave
Love never changes, you have to believe – in it's love
Love never changes, love …
Love never changes, love never leaves
Love is so graceful, you gotta believe – in it's (love, love, love)
Love never changes, love …(it never change)

Harmony: Love, it will never go
Love, even when you go, it never leaves
Love never changes… Love

[chorus:]

[Come on we can do whatever you want
I don't mind do whatever you want
It's alright do whatever you want
I'm not gonna say no not tonight
Come on we can do whatever you want
I don't mind do whatever you want
It's alright do whatever you want
I'm not gonna say no not tonight]

[verse 1:]
No please say yes cause I need to feel you next to me
I need your lovin I'm not gonna say no not tonight tonight
It's not the night that I'm gonna run from you
My body needs your attention you're not gonna hear no not tonight
What I feel is takin over
I lost myself I'm through
Can't control what I'm feeling been runnin but I run back to you
Your eyes is like a mirror
I know you feel it too
Might be a sin tonight this yearnin on the instant I'm with you

[chorus]

[verse 2:]
We keep playin games
A kiss here it's all the same
It's time to go all the way I wanna know what I've been waiting for
You move just like the ocean
Your lips I can't ignore
Your hands might know the secrets
We ain't even deep and I want more

[Hook:]
See we can't pretend
Like we don't want to taste
The sweetness
Chocolate-caramel ice cream on a
Dream Float with Red Wine

[verse 3:]
My mind is somewhere else
My soul wants to explore
You look at me it's over
No need for words you know I adore you

[chorus]

I'm not gonna say no
I'm not gonna say no
I'm not gonna say no
Oh not tonight

We can do whatever you want

[chorus]

I'm not gonna say [Not gonna say no]
Not tonight [Not tonight]
[ah ah ah ah]

Ooohhh yyeaaah aaww baby yeeeaa
I wish that I could stay, but staying here confuses me more
So I'll go cause there someone else who cares for me like you do
You are my friend and I don't wanna cross the line It's so easy to make you mine
I keep you pushing you away cause you give me what I miss at home

I'm goin' thru changes and how do I let you go... (let you go)
My mind is goin' thru changes... (going thru some changes) yeaa yeaa
And I can't let you go

Please don't touch me there temptation wants to rule me
I can't do what my body is calling out for I'm so confused
You know what I like and you wanna give me all of you
And I think about it too but I keep goin' thru these changes
Cause there's so much that I miss at home

I'm goin' thru changes how do I let you go... (I gotta get it together)
My mind is goin' thru changes And I can't let you

Aaaaaa I know what you want, I know what you want
Everything about us will change... gonna chnage
Everything I feel says here with you... I wanna stay here with you
I don't really know what to do... I don't know what to do
I can't get nothing at home... nothing
Every time I think about it I'm so confused... so confused

I'm goin' thru some changes...
I'm goin' thru changes how do I let you go
My mind is goin' thru changes (some changes) And I can't let you

[x2:]
I'm goin' thru changes(don't know what to do... don't know) how do I let you go
My mind is goin' thru changes (goin' thru some changes) And I can't let you

I'm goin' thru changes...

Verse
love
you said you'd never go away
but your gone, and im right back where i used to be
wondering if you really were for me
love
why did you have to go away
that was so much love that i gave to you
is there someone out there with a love that is true

Chorus
i need love
somebody to touch me
somebody who wants to be with me only
i need love
somebody to hold me
tell me that they love me
never gonna let me go
i need love
somebody to touch me
somebody who wants to be with me only
i need love
somebody who loves
somebody who wants to be with me only
i need love

Verse
love
i don't think i have much more to give to no one else
maybe its time for me to be by myself
because it hurts to much to put my love on the shelf
love
its so hard to let it go, when your longing for love
i'll let go and i hope that its true
when its real love it will come back to you

Chorus
i need love
somebody to touch me
somebody who wants to be with me only
i need love
somebody to hold me
tell me that they love me
never gonna let me go
i need love
somebody to touch me
somebody who wants to be with me only
i need love
somebody who loves
somebody who wants to be with me only
i need love

Bridge

Chorus

Chorus:
You can do what you want, be how you be
But I gotta fall back boy cause this ain't me
Oou Baby, I ain't trippin' over you
Go head and do you, cos' I'm a do me
But you just lost one and the one is me,
Oou Baby, I ain't trippin' over you

Mama told me watch out for bad boys, but I didn't listen
Giving all my stuff away, for some hugs and kissin'
I wait until I found the right one
I let you in, you disrespect me, now I'm done
What happened to you, you know what you said you were
The man I knew, you gave my love to her
Gotta let you go, gotta let you go, can't take no more
Cause I can't take it no more, no no more

Chorus:
You can do what you want, be how you be
But I gotta fall back boy cause this ain't me
Oou Baby, I ain't trippin' over you
Go head and do you, cos' I'm a do me
But you just lost one and the one is me
Oou Baby, I ain't trippin' over you

There ain't nothin' you can possibly say to make me come back
Everything you did has displayed you don't know how to act
I've givin' all I'm givin' and I'm done
And I can't believe I almost played the fool again, I'm done
The well is dry, and I'm leaving this time
You can dry your eye, ain't no need to cry
I gotta let you go, I can't take it no more
Cos' I can't take it no more… No more, no more, no more!

Chorus:
You can do what you want, be how you be
But I gotta fall back boy cause this ain't me
Oou Baby, I ain't trippin' over you
Go head and do you, cos' I'm a do me
But you just lost one and the one is me
Oou Baby, I ain't trippin' over you

I ain't trippin' over you, aaa
I ain't trippin' over you

da da da

Ooo oo oo

Why me
And how did I get here
What now
And where do I go
IâЂ™m so scared
Life ever changing
And the pain
Will it ever go
Please let me breathe
I just want to know
....the answer to why

Everyday I breathe
I just want to know
....the answer to why

In time
I will know the answer
Right now
I need to find a way
To let go of all my secrets and
Embrace the sun on my face
Today IâЂ™m gonna breathe
One day IâЂ™m gonna know
....the answer to why

Everyday I breathe
I just want to know
....the answer to why

So many questions I have
So many prayers left unanswered
ThereâЂ™s always a blessing
Still I am guessing
Finding my way through the dark

Everyday I breathe
I just want to know
....the answer to why

Everyday I breathe
I just want to know
....the answer to why

Everyday I breathe
I just want to know
....the answer to why

Everyday I breathe
I just want to know
....the answer to why

Oh everything changes.

I want to know why....

Everything changes.

Everything changes.

Everyday I breathe.

I just want to know
........the answer to why.
