Code Red - Can We Talk Lyrics

Code Red - Can We Talk Video

Last night I
I saw you standing
And I started
Started pretending
That I knew you, and you knew me too
 
And just like a roni
You were too shy
But you weren't the only
'Cause so was I
 
And I've dreamed of you ever since
Now I've built up my confidence
Girl next, next time you come my way
I'll know just what to say
 
Chorus
Can we talk for a minute
Girl I want to know your name
Can we talk for a minute
Girl I want to know your name
 
I started
To write you letters
But I wanted
To be more clever
I wanted to get down and sweet talk you
 
But just like a baby
I could not talk
I tried to come closer
But could not walk
 
And I think of it every night
How I just could not get it right
If we ever come close again
I'll know just what to say then
 
Chorus
 
Oh girl, one more chance
With you again
I will not let it go
Oh please, give me just one more chance
For love
 
Chorus

Christina Aguilera - Genie In A Bottle Lyrics

Christina Aguilera - Genie In A Bottle Video

I feel like I've been locked up tight
For a century of lonely nights
Waiting for someone to release me
You're lickin' your lips and blowing kisses my way
But that don't mean I'm gonna give it away
Baby baby baby (Baby baby baby)
 
Ohh, my body's sayin' let's go
Ohh, but my heart is sayin' no
 
If you wanna be with me
Baby, there's a price to pay
I'm a genie in a bottle
You gotta rub me the right way
 
If you wanna be with me
I can make your wish come true
You gotta make a big impression
Gotta like what you do
 
I'm a genie in a bottle, baby
Gotta rub me the right way, honey
I'm a genie in a bottle, baby
Come, come, come on and let me out
 
The music's playing and the lights down low
Just one more dance and then we're good to go
Waiting for someone who needs me
Hormones racing at the speed of a light
But that don't mean it's gotta be tonight
Baby baby baby (Baby baby baby)
 
Ohh, my body's sayin' let's go
Ohh, but my heart is sayin' no
 
If you wanna be with me
Baby, there's a price to pay
I'm a genie in a bottle
You gotta rub me the right way
 
If you wanna be with me
I can make your wish come true
Just come and set me free, baby
And I'll be with you
 
I'm a genie in a bottle, baby
Gotta rub me the right way, honey
I'm a genie in a bottle, baby
Come, come, come on and let me out
 
I'm a genie in a bottle, baby
Gotta rub me the right way, honey (If you wanna be with me)
I'm a genie in a bottle, baby
Come, come, come on and let me out
 
Ohh, my body's sayin' let's go
Ohh, but my heart is sayin' no
 
If you wanna be with me
Baby, there's a price to pay
I'm a genie in a bottle (I'm a genie in a bottle)
You gotta rub me the right way
 
If you wanna be with me
I can make your wish come true
You gotta make a big impression
Gotta like what you do
 
If you wanna be with me
Baby, there's a price to pay
I'm a genie in a bottle (I'm a genie in a bottle)
You gotta rub me the right way
 
If you wanna be with me
I can make your wish come true
Just come and set me free, baby
And I'll be with you
 
I'm a genie in a bottle, baby
Come, come, come on and let me out

Chante Moore - It's Alright Lyrics

Chante Moore - It's Alright Video

Hello my love,
Before the sun rises, after it goes down,
I love ya, I love ya,
I say it over and over again,
I love ya, hey, hey, hey.
 
Relax your mind, we can be free together,
Take our time, even through the tears (even through the tears),
I'm staying right here, I'm waiting right here,
Oh, we're going through some hard times,
But it will be... alright.
 
It's alright, it's alright
It's alright, it's alright now,
Everything's alright, baby it will be...
It's alright, it's alright
It's alright, it's alright now,
Everything's alright.
 
When teardrops fall,
Running down, running down my face,
I need you, please hear me,
Baby I need you here, beside me,
Everyday I need to know, that you will not leave me,
Promise me, tell me we can work it out (tell me we can work it out),
Ooh baby without a doubt (ooh baby without a doubt),
It will be .. alright
 
It's alright, it's alright
It's alright, it's alright now,
Everything's alright, oh tell me it will be... alright.
It's alright, it's alright
It's alright, it's alright now,
It's gonna be alright.
 
Baby come show me (it's alright, it's alright),
I need you to hold me (it's alright, it's alright),
Tell me it's gonna be alright.
And I'll believe ya (it's alright, it's alright),
If you tell me (it's alright, it's alright),
Everything is alright.
 
When the grass looks greener, and I think about leaving,
I never go too far,
No one else can sitisfy me, because I know how good you are,
Baby, hey, you make it alright
 
It's alright, it's alright
It's alright, it's alright now,
Everything's alright, tell me it will be... alright
It's alright, it's alright
It's alright, it's alright now,
Everything's alright.
 
Baby take my hand (it's alright, it's alright),
And make me understand (it's alright, it's alright),
That everything's gonna be alright, now.
With all that we've been through (it's alright, it's alright),
Aaah baby (it's alright, it's alright),
I'll do anything to make it alright (everything's alright).
 
Ooh baby (it's alright, it's alright),
Tell me, tell me, tell me (it's alright, it's alright),
Show me it's gonna be, it's gonna be alright.
Hey baby (it's alright, it's alright),
Oooh (it's alright, it's alright),
(everything's alright) it's gonna be, it's gonna be alright.
 
We're going through some hard times,
But everything will be fine,
I know it will be alright.
Baby I know it (it's alright, it's alright),
Oh baby I know it (it's alright, it's alright),
I've got the feeling everything's alright
(everything's alright).

Celine Dion - Your Light Lyrics

Celine Dion - Your Light Video

Hey man, come over here
There's a secret that I wanna whisper in your ear
I've waited so long, too long
But I can't deny it anymore it's just too strong
 
It's a special kind of feelin'
Something to believe in, Oh yeah
 
So lay back, and let it flow
Then just open up your heart and let your feelings go
I said Hey man, Yo man
Well it's really not that difficult to understand
 
That it's me that you've been seein'
Baby when you're dreamin', at night
 
So let your walls come down
And you'll feel my emotion
I will shelter you
From a tear or an ocean
 
Whenever your hope is gone
I'll give you strength to carry on
In the darkness of the night
I will be your light
I'll give you something to hold on to
When you can't find your way
Like a fire burning bright
I will be your light
 
So relax, we'll take it slow
I wouldn't think you'd really have a better place to go
I said Hey man, Yo Man
Why don't you move a little closer here and take my hand
 
Are you feelin' what I'm feelin'
I know I must be dreamin', oh yeah
 
But sometimes life can come
To build a wall in between us
Don't let it get you down
Whoever said love was an easy thing
 
Whenever your hope is gone
I'll give you strength to carry on
In the darkness of the night
I will be your light
I'll give you something to hold on to
When you can't find your way
Like a fire burning bright
I will be your light
 
I will be your light
Whenever you need a friend
Just come over to me baby
Baby Baby Baby
So let your walls come down
And you'll feel my emotion
I will shelter you
From a tear or an ocean
 
Whenever your hope is gone
I'll give your strength to carry on
In the darkness of the night
I will be your light
I'll give you something to hold on to
When you can't find your way
Like a fire burning bright
I will be your light
 
Whenever your hope is gone
I'll give your strength to carry on
In the darkness of the night
I will be your light
Light, shining bright, baby
I'll be the one who holds you, baby
I'll be the one who loves you, baby
Be the one who holds you, loves you,
Baby, baby

I see you driving 'round town with the girl I love
And I'm like, Fuck you! (Ooo, ooo, oooo)

Canibus - Get Retarded Lyrics

Canibus - Get Retarded Video

(Intro: sample scratched)
I-I-I, want, to..
G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-Get retarded
G-G-G-G-G-G-Get retarded
Get re-Get re-Get retarded
G-G-G-G-G-G-Get retarded
I, want, to..
G-G-G-G-G-G-Get retarded
 
(Canibus)
Niggas is phoney, fronting like they Masters of Ceremonies
None of you suckers are even remotely close to me
To be nice, I sacrifice things like no sleep
I keep a library of lyrics on microfiche
Creating concepts so deep, niggas quote me
They rewind then interpret my rhymes to they homies
I've advanced beyond your flows, aeons ago
It's inevitable in '98 I'ma blow
Ever since '84, I've been in it to win it
But see back then, we used to battle by spinning on the cement
You can't even absorb the rhymes I record
Or resolve the deep laws of the physics involved
I travel to the end of the universe and beyond
Parsecs, out of range from a cellular StarTec
From the galaxy of Andromeda
I puzzle niggas like Crop Circles and other unexplained phenomena
 
(Chorus: Canibus sample)
Aiyo, nine out of ten of these rap artists is garbage
G-G-G-G-G-G-Get retarded
You spineless, rhymeless, niggas is heartless
Get re-Get re-Get retarded
Aiyo, I came to see that hip-hop is never tarnished
G-G-G-G-G-G-Get retarded
So I (*echoes*)
I, want, to..
G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-Get retarded
 
(Canibus)
All I really want is you niggas to stop biting
All I really want is you niggas to start writing
All I really want is you niggas to be original
And start spitting some lyrical shit that I can listen to
You haven't written the perfect rhyme yet
You don't even know the sequences to the Human Genome Project
You haven't come to terms with your God yet
And you refuse to believe in Unidentified Flying Objects
When I bomb shit, I get retarded, probably more than you bargained
I'm talking about ripping a mic off your arm shit
Hype shit, blow up a mic shit, you might get
Beat the fuck up in broad daylight with a nightstick
To the British, I'm Gandhi
To the Japanese, I'm an American pilot flying over Nagasaki
To the AIDS patient, I'm your last antibody
Sitting and waiting for a cure from modern biology
 
Chorus
 
(Canibus)
I be looking directly into the human eye to see if you pussy
And completely ruin your ability to lie to me
I pull a 9 on a bully, cock back the cannon
Goddamn it, I don't think you fully understand it
Ask nine out of ten niggas on the planet
Who the best is, the question will go unanswered
Till I step up, to the front line with rhymes
Revving my engines like they were powered by Le Mans
Murdering niggas with lyrics manufactured within my DNA's double-helix
I leave you in troubled spirits
I'm absolutely the purest breed of emcee
From the United States of America to Europe I deserve it
However you want to word it, I'm perfect
Touch my microphone on accident and get murdered on purpose
Motherfucker!
 
I, want, to..
G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-Get retarded
 
(Outro: sample)
G-G-G-G-G-G-Get retarded
Get re-Get re-Get retarded

Busta Rhymes - Gimme Some More Video

Playing in the front yard of the crib
Fell down, and I bumped my head
Somebody helped me up and asked me if I bumped my head
I said Yeah!
So then they said Oh so that mean we gon',

Got a big gun and I'ma show you the size
You fuck with any of my Flipmode family ties
Me and my niggas be comin' through, stalkin' you out
Killin' off any and everything you talkin' about
See you in the club, now we walkin' you out
Shoulda thought twice 'fo you went and open'd your mouth
Yo, anyway we stay keepin' it movin'
Fuckin' with the wrong nigga, hope you know what you doin'

Runnin' with my money son, go out with a blast
Do what you want, a nigga's cuttin' the corner
You fuckin' up, oh to go ahead and meet the reporter
Yo, she tellin' news on how you switch to a bitch
Little fake funny style, nigga chill with a snitch
So now I pass and trait over your blood and to ask you
Make a little room for me and all my niggas to pass through
Cartier, Sidney Poitier, horray shit
What with all my niggas from around the way shit
When I come through you niggas know I do my thing

Arrest you lyrically flow and caress you

Bryan Adams - Lie To Me Lyrics

Bryan Adams - Lie To Me Video

From the international version of on a day like today
I walked in you walked out
I know right then something was up
Ya said don't ask me no questions won't tell ya no lies
It comes as such a surprise
I think I'll close my eyes to the pain
Cuz tonight I don't wanna know where you've been
So won't you lie to me
Then I can't be mistaken
Swear that you will lie to me
I don't wanna hear my heart breakin'
Tell me all the things that I want to hear
I don't give a damn if you ain't sincere
Baby just swear, (baby just swear)
Swear that you'll lie (swear that you'll lie) to me
You walked in I walked out
Baby this ain't what we've been about
If I touched your hand would ya pull it away
Was it something I didn't say
I forgive ya all the same
But tonight I don't wanna know where you've been
 
You can't say the things that you want
I won't let ya tell the truth
Cuz I don't (cuz I don't) give a damn (give a damn)
And I don't (and I don't) wanna know where you've been

Boney M. - I See A Boat On The River Lyrics

Boney M. - I See A Boat On The River Video

He left on a boat
Just to follow a dream
He had to find.
You can't hold a man
When he follows a dream
That's on his mind.
 
I see a boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say.
 
Boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say.
 
I waited for him
Such a very long time,
Don't Know what for
'Cause I should have known
When he left on the boat
We'll meet no more.
 
I see a boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say.
 
Boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say.
 
Boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say.
 
Boat on the river.
You're bound for the sea,
If you should find him
Please greet him from me.
 
There were people who came
And said it's really a shame,
Why did he take off
To follow just a dream.
But I guess they were wrong,
In life you're sailing along
And things don't turn out
As simple as they seem.
 
Boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say.
 
I see a boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say.
 
I see a boat on the river.
You're bound for the sea,
If you should find him
Please greet him from me.
 
Boat on the river,
It's sailing away

Bon Jovi - Bed Of Roses Lyrics

Bon Jovi - Bed Of Roses Video

Sitting here wasted and wounded
At this old piano
Trying hard to capture
The moment this morning I don't know
'Cause a bottle of vodka
Is still lodged in my head
And some blonde gave me nightmares
I think that she's still in my bed
As I dream about movies
They won't make of me when I'm dead
 
With an ironclad fist I wake up and
French kiss the morning
While some marching band keeps
It's own beat in my head
While we're talking
About all of the things that I long to believe
About love, the truth and
What you mean to me
And the truth is baby you're all that I need
 
I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails
Oh, I wanna be just as close as your Holy Ghost is
And lay you down on bed of roses
 
Well I'm so far away
That each step that I take is on my way home
A king's ransom in dimes, I'd give each night
To see through this pay phone
Still I run out of time
Or it's hard to get through
'Til the bird on the wire flies me back to you
I'll just close my eyes and whisper
Baby, blind love is true
 
I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails
Oh, I wanna be just as close as your Holy Ghost is
And lay you down on bed of roses
 
Well, this hotel bar's hangover whiskey's gone dry
The barkeeper's wig's crooked
And she's giving me the eye
And I might have said yeah
But I laughed so hard I think I died
Ooh yeah
 
Now as you close your eyes
Know I'll be thinking about you
While my mistress, she calls me
To stand in her spotlight again
Tonight, I won't be alone
But you know that don't mean I'm not lonely
I've got nothing to prove
For it's you that I'd die to defend
 
I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails
Oh, I wanna be just as close as your Holy Ghost is
And lay you down
 
I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails
Oh, I wanna be just as close as your Holy Ghost is
And lay you down on bed of roses
