Written by S. Garrett & D. Boyette

Blow Daddy, aww, yeah

Here we are, standing at the hard line

We made it last this long

The two of us, together since the first time

And I believe our love is still strong

Seems love has a funny way

Well, it can come or go or it can choose to stay

But love says what it has to say

(Chorus)

Matter of fact (ooh, as a matter of fact)

I love you (oh, as a matter of fact)

And I love that you love me back

As a matter of fact (ooh, as a matter, a matter)

Some said we wouldn't make it this far

But they don't talk no more (no more)

The love we share is precious as a big star

And what we have's what others hope for

Seems love has a funny way

Well, it can come or go or it can choose to stay

But love says what it has to say

(Chorus)

Matter of fact (ooh, as a matter of fact)

I need you (oh, as a matter of fact)

And I'm glad that you need me back

As a matter of fact (ooh, as a matter, a matter)

Mm, matter of fact, yeah (ooh as a matter of fact)

I want you (yeah, as a matter of fact)

And I can't tell you more than that

As a matter of fact, (ooh, as a matter) yeah (matter)

Aww, blow, Daddy

Musical Interlude

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Seems love has a funny way

Well, it can come and go or it can choose to stay

But love says what it has to say

(Repeat chorus)

Matter of fact (ooh, as a matter of fact)

I love you (oh, as a matter of fact)

yeah and I love that you love me back

As a matter of fact (ooh, as a matter of fact)

Ooh, ooh, baby

Matter of fact (ooh, as a matter of fact)

I need you (yeah, as a matter of fact)

And I'm glad that you need me right back

As a matter of fact

(Ooh, as a matter) yeah (a matter)

[No lyrics]

Even though it's been so long
My love for you keeps going strong
I remember the things that we used to do
A kiss in the rain till the sun shine through
I tried to deny it but I'm still in love with you

I miss you like crazy, I miss you like crazy
Ever since you went away, every hour of every day
I miss you like crazy, I miss you like crazy
No matter what I say or do
There's just no getting over you

I can see the love shining in your eyes
And it comes as such a sweet surprise
If seeing's believing it's worth the wait
So hold me and tell me it's not too late
We're so good together, we're starting forever now

And I miss you like crazy, I miss you like crazy
Ever since you went away, every hour of every day
I miss you like crazy, I miss you baby
A love like ours will never end
Just touch me and we're there again

Just one night
And we'll have that magic feeling like we used to do
Hold on tight
And whatever comes our way we're gonna make it through

If seeing's believing it's worth the wait
So hold me and tell me it's not too late
We're so good together, we're starting forever now

And I miss you like crazy, I miss you like crazy
No matter what I say or do
There's just no getting over you
And I miss you, baby, I miss you, baby
All the tender love you gave me
When a feeling gets this strong
You know the real thing come along

And I miss you
I miss you like crazy baby
Only your sweet love can save me
I miss you like crazy
A love like ours will never end
Just touch me and we're there again
Miss you like crazy, I miss you like crazy

Let me look at you, just look at you

You're a sight for sore eyes, yes you are

If you knew how many nights I spent holding you so tight

Then I'd wake up and we're still apart

Now you're really near and I'm really here

And I can wrap my arms around you, yes I can

This is just like I remember, no I think its even better

Maybe even more than I can stand

Baby, its good to be back, so good to be back

Baby, its good to be back in your arms again

Baby, its good to be back, so good to be back

Honey, its good to be back with you, oh yeah

Well its not the first time we've been apart

But as far as I'm concerned its the last

I don't care what we have to do to stay together from now on

But those days away from you are past

'Cause when I go through the day and I haven't seen your face

Seems like nothing that I do feels right

You're the one I wanna see when I wake up every day

You're the one I wanna kiss goodnight

Baby, its good to be back, so good to be back

Baby, its good to be back in your arms again (ooh)

Baby, its good to be back, so good to be back

Honey, its good to be back with you

So good, so good, so good, so good, so good with you, baby

So good with you

Why don't you start me up with just one kiss

That's just one of the things I've missed

You better kiss me once again 'til it finally settles in

Well, I think I could get used to this

Baby, its good to be back, so good, so good to be back, real good

Baby, its good to be back in your arms again, I just got to say it

Good to be back, so good to be back

Honey, its good to be back with you

Baby, its good to be back, feels mighty good to be back

Baby, its good to be back with you

Baby, its good to be back, so good, so good to be back

Aw honey, honey its good to be back with you

And its so good to be back, aw sing it girls

Yeah, good to be back, I like the way you sang

Baby, its good to be back in you're arms again

Sang, sang, sang, sang

And it's so good to be back...

Written by G. Glenn

Since the time we met never shall forget

The magic feeling when I look in your eyes

Every now and then I see you again

But the words never come out right

I've always been painfully shy

I hide what I feel inside

Tonight I (never let you get away)

Open my heart (Invite you in to stay)

I need you (more than words can say)

And I hope you feel the same

(Gonna make you mine, I'll make you mine)

You've captured my heart

And I won't take no for an answer

(Gonna make you mine, I'll make you mine)

Hope that there's a chance, Baby

That we can get together

Cause I (Gonna make you mine) gonna make you see

(Gonna make you mine) you were meant for me

(Gonna make you mine)

I wanna love you endlessly

Many times before I would just ignore

Love when it came around and knocked on my door

Keeping to myself, trusting no one else

I've put my heart out of reach on a shelf

With you I can't pass up this chance

For a once in a lifetime romance

Cause after all (someone said it very plain)

When it comes to love (no pain no gain)

I think I'll (take a chance on you)

And you know I play to win I'm

(Gonna make you mine, I'll make you mine)

You've captured my heart

And I won't take no for an answer

(Gonna make you mine, I'll make you mine)

Hope that there's a chance, Honey

That we can get together

Cause I (gonna make you mine)

Gonna make you see (Gonna make you mine)

You were meant for me (Gonna make you mine)

I wanna love you endlessly, yeah

Oh, I'm looking for one lifetime romance

(Someone said it very plain) I'll think I'll

(No pain no gain) Take a chance on you

(Take a chance on you)

Ooh, cause you know I play to win, Baby

(Gonna make you mine) I'll make you mine

(I'll make you mine)

You've captured my heart

And I won't take no for an answer

(Gonnna make you mine) I'm gonna make you mine)

( I'm gonna make you mine)

I believe there's a chance that we can get together

Cause I (Gonna make you mine)

Gonna make you see (Gonna make you mine)

You were meant for me (Gonna make you mine)

I wanna love you endlessly (Gonna make you mine)

(I'll make you mine) I'm gonna make you mine

And I won't take no for answer

(Gonna make you mine, I'll make you mine)

Oh, you've captured my heart

I know that we can get together, together, together

I'm gonna make you, and I'm gonna love you...

verse 1
and when i hold you in my arms i promise you
you'll gonna feel the love that's beautiful and new
this time i'll love you even better
than i ever did before and you'll be in my heart
forevermore..

verse 2
we, we're just too young to know we fell
inlove and let it go
so easy to say the words goodbye
so hard to let the feelings die
i know how much i need you now
the time is turning back somehow
as soon as our hearts and soul unite
i know for sure we'll get the feeling's right

chorus
and now we're starting over again
it's not the easiest thing to do
i'm feeling inside again
coz everytime i looked at you
i know we're starting over again
this time we'll leave all the pain away
welcome home my lover and friend
coz we are starting over over again

verse 3
if we never leave and love
then we might have never known
all the times we spent apart
all we did was break each other's heart

ohh..hooh..

and when i hold you in my arms i promise you
you'll gonna feel the love that's beautiful and new
this time i'll love you ever better
than i ever did before
and you'll be in my heart forever more...

chorus 2
and now we're starting over again
it's not the easiest thing to do
i'm feeling inside again
coz everytime i looked at you
i know we're starting over again
this time we'll leave all the pain away
welcome home my lover and friend
coz we are starting over over again

this time we'll chase all the rain away
welcome home my lover and friend
coz we are starting over over again...
we are starting over over again..

Hoo, hoo, mm

Don't mention my heartache

I just hide it away

Don't want to remember what brings me pain

Who does it hurt if I'm masquerading

When anybody asks me you know I'll say, yeah

That I love him, he loves me

We're so good together

I'll pretend he's home again

Though he's gone forever

Don't mention my heartache

'Cause I don't want nobody to know, no, no, no

Just keep it a secret that he let me go

'Cause I don't want nobody to know

That I go through the motions (motions)

Put a smile on my face, yes, I do

I heard that the weather is changing today, yeah, yeah

And I don't talk about my business to noone

If anybody asks me you know what I'll say, yeah

That I love him; he loves me, we're so good together

I'll pretend he's home again, though he's gone forever

Don't mention my heartache

'Cause I don't want nobody to know, oh, no

Just keep it a secret that he let me go

'Cause I don't want nobody to know--

Oh, oh, oh, oh, hoo--

That the heartache that I'm feeling makes me lonely, oh---

Don't mention my heartache

'Cause I don't want nobody to know, no, no

Just keep it a secret that he let me go

And I don't want nobody to know, nobody

(Can't talk about it)

Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah

(Don't want to think about it)

And I don't want nobody, I got a heartache

I don't want nobody, I don't want nobody, I got a heartache

(Don't mention my heartache)

I got a heartache, he let me go

It's a sweet face, yes, it is

Don't want nobody, can't stand nobody

(Don't mention my heartache)

And I got to keep it a secret

(I'm minding my business)

'Cause my man, 'cause my man

Ain't my man no more

Keeping it a secret (don't mention my heartache)

Keeping it a secret, oh, all to myself, he let me go...
