Monica - Searchin' Lyrics

Monica - Searchin' Video

When I hear the children of today
They're questioning me the way
The way that they should live
I often wonder
Wonder what to do
To help them make it through
And the world's going straight
 
Open my heart to see
That is time with me
Searchin' for the answers to these problems
I'm always facing things that are tryin' me
Testing all the things that I believe
 
Sometimes I feel so down
And no one here's around
But you, you never left me lonely
And now I see what a true friend means
And I trust that you would always be here for me
Lord I give you all
 
Open my heart to see
That is time with me
Searchin' for the answers to these problems
I'm always facing things that are tryin' me
Testing all the things that I believe
 
Now I'm here before you
So tell me what to do
(Guess I'll do open my heart)
My heart to you
Here I am
Searching for all the answers to my problems
Lord I'm facing things
Can you help me
You're trying all that I need
The things I belive
Lord, no no no no
Here I am
Here I am
I'm searching for searching for it
Lord I need, need, need
That's tryin' me
Testing all the things that I believe
Here I am
Lagging all the understand single things I can't see
I am your child
Oooh oh oh
That're tryin' me
Can't you help me
I'm lagging understanding
I'm your child no matter what they say
I'm with you every day
Protect me every day
Protect me oh oh..

Baby, understand everything
There's no one else in my life
Maybe I can make you happy, baby

Don't be afraid, let me hold your heart
Control everything you do

But if you feel weak, don't you worry
Cause I never can say goodbye
 
Ohh baby, if it's okay with you

Won't be afraid to let you hold my heart
Control everything I do

Monica - Miss Thang Lyrics

Monica - Miss Thang Video

Miss Thang.. (oohh)
 
Miss Thang (Ooh, ahh, ooh)
Miss Thang (Ooh, yeah)
 
Couldn't wait to understand
I grew up faster than the rest
It affected the ways of my attitude
But don't take it as I'm rude
 
Now I'm fly as I can be
Got responsibilities
But I know when I'm right I'm right
And when I'm wrong as I can be
 
But it's all right for me to think it's all about me
Too many people tryin' to check, but they can't see
I know you wouldn't want to think that I'm naïve
Said I may be young, but I'm experienced
In all I need to know, that's why I'm
 
Miss Thang (Because I know I've got it goin' on, they call me)
Miss Thang (Miss Thang, yeah)
Miss Thang (It's the way that I carry on, that I'm Miss Thang)
Miss Thang (Miss Thang, baby)
 
I meet guys that are my age, but they can't relate to me
Because I'm too much for their minds, and their young mentality
Confidence is what you bold
And my friends are much too old
But I swing out when they swang
And that's how I got my name
 
But it's all right for me to think it's all about me
Too many people tryin' to check but they can't see
I know you wouldn't wanna think that I'm naïve
Said I may be young, but I'm experienced
In all I need to know, that's why I'm
 
Miss Thang (Because I know I got it goin' on, they call me)
Miss Thang (Miss Thang, yeah)
Miss Thang (It's the way that I carry on, that I'm Miss Thang
Miss Thang (Miss Thang)
 
Miss Thang (Don't you know I got it goin' on?)
Miss Thang (And you can't do nothin' with me)
Miss Thang (It's the way that I carry on, that I'm Miss Thang)
Miss Thang (Miss Thang)

Monica - Why I Love You So Much Lyrics

Monica - Why I Love You So Much Video

Oooh baby
You give me the world ooooh and everything that I want for
Since I've been your girl
Oh my whole life has been much better than ever before
You got a tender sweet love, yes you do
That weakens me and takes over me whenever we touch
 
Chorus-
Baby that's just why I love you so much
Baby that's just why I can't get enough
Baby that's just why I love you so much
I love only you
 
Now you say that your down
Oh you said you won't play around
No, no not with my heart
And when your boys come around
No your not disrespecting me
And not trying to be Mr.-wanna-be-hard
You let them know that I'm yours yes you do
By holding me, and kissing me
Lets them know that for sure
 
Repeat chorus
 
Yes, you don't ever say I'm too young thank you baby
I've been around enough to know enough, know just what I want
You don 't move too fast or make me rush, No
One day we're gonna talk about making love, no doubt
Baby when the time is right
 
Repeat chorus
 
Baby no one else
Can do what you're doing to me
You take me and you hold me
You rub me in your arms baby
And I love you for that baby
You don't front in front of your friends
And you smart enough to be be a real man
And I love you, and I love you, and I love you for that baby

Monica - I Wrote This Song Lyrics

Monica - I Wrote This Song Video

Verse 1:
He's the kind of guy
That runs the streets
But he treats me good
And he makes his dough illegally
That's how he's taking care of me
And I respect the fact that
He's chosen that life
But it keeps me up late at night
And I just can't spend my time
Wondering where he's at, is he okay?
I wanna be by his side
But I commit a crime
I need to decide
If I don't wanna live that way
 
Chorus:
I love my baby so
But he's not here no more
But I need to understand
So I wrote this song
Couldn't look him in his eyes
Knew I couldn't change his mind
So I wrote this melody
And I'm singing sweet goodbye
 
Verse 2:
Though he promised that he would never put me in harm's way
That is something that he can't control
The game remains the same
Now he says he wants out of here
But he's in too deep
And the only way that he will go is killing him or leaving me
So this is where I'm at and it hurts so bad
That I had to chose if I wanna live, or die with you
 
Chorus:
I love my baby so
But he's not here no more
But I need to understand
So I wrote this song
Couldn't look him in his eyes
Knew I couldn't change his mind
So I wrote this melody
And I'm singing sweet goodbye
 
I love my baby so
But he's not here no more
But I need to understand
So I wrote this song
Couldn't look him in his eyes
Knew I couldn't change his mind
So I wrote this melody
And I'm singing sweet goodbye
 
Bridge:
I tried to give him hope
And promise him my life
But I don't know what made him want to leave this life
And as he went away
The tears fell from my eyes
And there's no turning back
There's only goodbye
 
Chorus:
I love my baby so
But he's not here no more
But I need to understand
So I wrote this song
Couldn't look him in his eyes
Knew I couldn't change his mind
So I wrote this melody
And I'm singing sweet goodbye
 
I love my baby so
But he's not here no more
But I need to understand
So I wrote this song
Couldn't look him in his minds
Knew I couldn't change his mind
So I wrote this melody
And I'm singing sweet goodbye
 
I love you so
I need you so
It's hard to imagine
My life here without you
I love you so
I need you so
It's hard to imagine
My life here without you
Without you
Without you

Monica - Now I'm Gone Video

(Male)
Monica baby, I'm sorry
I know I was wrong, but I think we can work it out
Just try to hear me out
 
(Monica)
Nah, you hear me out
 
(Verse 1)
I gave you so much love, but you had to play with my affections
My heart was in your hands, but you had to play with all my feelings
You got your mack on, but now I'm gone
Cause I'd rather be all alone
Away from all these silly games
 
(Chorus)
I gave you no reason why
Just said do your thing on the side
But now I'm gone
Cause it will never be the same
 
You were busy kicking it with your boys
Instead of taking care of your girl
But now I'm gone
Gone away from you
 
(Verse 2)
I thought I knew you well
But you ran away, didn't care about me
You told so many lies
Thought you could run away from this thing called reality
But I'm long gone, I got to go on
There's someone waiting for me
To love me honestly
 
(Chorus)
I gave you no reason why
Just said do your thing on the side
But now I'm gone
Cause it will never be the same, yeah
 
Your were busy kicking it with your boys
Instead of taking care of your girl
But now I'm gone
I'm gone away from you, oh my boy, hey
 
I gave you no reason why
Just said do your thing on the side
But now I'm gone
Cause it will never be the same, naw
 
You were busy kicking it with your boys (You shoulda been taking care of your girl)
Instead of taking care of your girl
But now I'm gone
But now I'm gone, oh now I'm gone, now I'm gon' away from you
(Monica speaking)
You see, the things you did to me back then, I'm long gon' from it now
Baby I gotta go my own way
They say (they say)
That you never (miss a good thing)
Until it's gon' (Until it's gone away)

Monica - What Hurts The Most Lyrics

Monica - What Hurts The Most Video

Yeah...yeah
Oh...oh...
Oh...
Listen
 
Boy, it's been a long time
Since the last time I saw you
Feels like nothin' changed
Since we've been together
I must admit that I go crazy 'bout you
 
And I can see it in your eyes
That there's somethin' you want to say to me
'Cause usually right now
You'd be holdin' on to me
But instead you're tellin me
 
Things have changed, they're not the same
And recently you found someone that you
Decided to dedicate your whole life to
And what we had has got to be through
 
And baby, what hurts the most is letting go
I just want you to know that I love you so
I know things are different now, you've gone and settled down
And I thought for sure you'd always wait for me
 
I'll tell you what hurts the most is I should have took the chance
Boy, when you came to me and offered me your hand
Silly of me I thought I'd always have your heart
I had the chance to have all the love oh, how I'm missing you now
 
I hate that there is someone new
Comin' in and takin' my place
Doin' the things that we used to do
And makin' love to you
 
And oh, what am I supposed to do
It's killin' me 'Cause I want you
And you should have known my love was true
And there's no one else in this world for me but you
 
But things have changed, they're not the same
And recently you found someone that you
Decided to dedicate your whole life to
And what we had has got to be through
 
And baby, what hurts the most is letting go
I just want you to know that I love you so
I know things are different now, you've gone and settled down
And I thought for sure you'd always wait for me
 
I'll tell you what hurts the most is I should have took the chance
Boy, when you came to me and offered me your hand
Silly of me I thought I'd always have your heart
I had the chance to have all your love oh, how I'm missing you now
 
I know that I'm the one to blame for losing you, oh, yeah
I really, really wish that I could be happy for you
There's just one thing I need you to do
Don't you touch her like you used to touch me
Don't you love her like you really need me
Don't you love her like you used to love me
 
And baby, what hurts the most is letting go
I just want you to know that I love you so
I know things are different now, you've gone and settled down
And I thought for sure you'd always wait me
 
I'll tell you what hurts the most is I should have took the chance
Boy, when you came to me and offered me your hand
Silly of me I thought I'd always have your heart
I had the chance to have all your love oh, how I'm missing you now
 
What hurts the most is letting go, it makes me feel so tired
Just to let you know I love you so, I love you so
What hurts the most is letting go, im tryin to let you go

Oh and i love to love ya baby
So unreal
 
Nights i couldn't sleep
You let the sun beat you home
I ask myself over again,
What am i doing wrong?
To make you stay out all night
And not think to call
What does she have over me?
To make ya not think to call home?
 
You make me feel
Im so gone
So unreal
You make me feel
Oh and i love to love ya baby
So unreal
 
Listen boy
Im the rowdy chick
Sometimes i have to fight cuz my mouth too slick
Baby why you doin me like i aint worth shit?
Make me wanna ride past your house and sit
Kick down your doors and smack your chick
Just to show you monica not havin it
So in love with you like a drug habit get
(so unreal) you treat me so unreal
 
What she do,

What she do to make u love her
Was it real, or forever
Baby please tell me. stay together
What she do,

What she do to make u love her?
Is it real?
Or forever
Baby please help us together
 
Oh and i love to love ya baby

Just to show you monica not havin it
 
You make me feel
Im so gone

You make me feel
Oh and i love to love ya baby
