Don't Take Your Love Away Lyrics – Brian Mcknight

So lost
Sometime I feel like I'm all alone
Like I'm down here all by myself
Tell me when you comin' back to take me home
Father
I been told that the streets are paved with gold
And the lion lays with the lamb
They say it'll be nothing like I've ever known
And when I get there

All of my burdens
I can't wait to lay them down
My savior
Can't wait to see you in that sweet old by and by
Oh
The clock is tickin
We're runnin out of time
What I've been livin for
Is finally about to be mine
That's why I'm gonna be everything you want me to be
Don't take your love from me

Everyday every night
That's why I'm livin to see your face
You're the one
You're my life and I can't replace
That's why I've got to be everything you want me to be
Don't take your love from me

And when it gets hard
I still retain my faith
The harder the trials come
I still get on my knees and pray
And say thank you
I know the road will get rough
The sea will get stormy
But if I keep my eyes on you
I know you've prepared a place for me
And your word says it's true
And when I get there

All of my burdens
I can't wait to lay them down
My savior
Can't wait to see you in that sweet old by and by
Oh
The clock is tickin
We're runnin out of time
What I've been livin for
Is finally about to be mine
That's why I'm gonna be everything you want me to be
Don't take your love from me
Everyday every night
That's why I'm livin to see your face
You're the one
You're my life and I can't replace
That's why I've got to be everything you want me to be
Don't take your love from me

And do gonna do what I have to do
To make it through
I don't wanna be left down here
When you go

Clock is tickin
We're runnin out of time
What I've been livin for
Is finally about to be mine
That's why I'm gonna be everything you want me to be
Don't take your love from me
Everyday every night
That's why I'm livin to see your face
You're the one
You're my life and I can't replace
That's why I've got to be everything you want me to be
Don't take your love from me

Clock is tickin
We're runnin out of time
What I've been livin for
Is finally about to be mine
That's why I'm gonna be everything you want me to be
Don't take your love from me
Everyday every night
That's why I'm livin to see your face
You're the one
You're my life and I can't replace
That's why I've got to be everything you want me to be
Don't take your love from me

Stay With Him Lyrics – Brian Mcknight

When we started
Down this crooked path
It was a point in time
Wasn't meant to be
I told you not
Not to fall
In love with me

I hate
I hate to leave you
Out there on that limb
I think you might
Might as well, stay with him

They say the grass
The grass is greener over yonder
On the other side
I never told you, that I loved you
And if I did, baby I lied
You wanna tell
That its over
Well I think, you might wanna think again
Maybe you might as well
Might as well, stay with him
Cause' you don't know
You don't know
How much he loves you
And needs you so
You don't really wanna be,
Be with me
Cause' I'd leave you all alone
I hate to leave you
Out there on that limb
I think you might as well
Stay with him

What We Do Here Lyrics – Brian Mcknight

I never been down for the kiss n' tell
And I realize that you don't know me well
I'm talkin' 'bout grown-up things
Don't let the words get in the way

I know that you heard all about my past
And all the relationships that didn't last
Before we do what we're gonna do
There's something I must get straight baby

[Chorus:]
What we do here stays here
I'm telling you
'Cause I wanna make it clear
It's only 'cause I want you to have no fear
That baby what we do here stays here

And nobody has to know
What's good is if you meet me right after the show
I'm telling you
'Cause I wanna make it clear
That baby what we do here stays here

If you have any question girl go on and ask
Right now while your reputation's still intact
Ten minutes 'till curtain call everything will be ok

I swear this has never happened once before
Chances are you won't get back once you're out that door
Your body's tellin' me yes
You can believe me when I say

[Chorus]

It's almost time to start the show
I don't want you to go
I want you stay
I'll say it again 'cos I need you so

[Chorus]

Every Time You Go Away Lyrics – Brian Mcknight

Every time that I’m with you girl
I can’t believe you share my world
But it’s real

And every time that I hold you close to me
Forever’s all that I can see
How it feels

See I don’t give a damn what my homies say
Don’t matter anyway
See I never felt this way before
You leave a brother wantin’ more

[Chorus:]
I hate to see you go
Even though I know when you’re comin’ back
It’s hard to breathe without you girl
And baby that’s a fact
I know sometimes you have to leave
But I wish you could stay
Every time you go away

From the very first time that I touched you babe
Couldn’t find the words to say you set me free
And every time that I kiss your lips
Nothin’ ever tasted quite like this
Or got so deep

See I don’t give a damn what my homies say
Don’t matter anyway
See I never ever felt this way before
You always leave me wantin’ more

[Chorus]

You’re the sunshine of my day
You brighten up my night
You take a piece of me with you
Every time you say goodbye

[Chorus]

Grown Man Business Lyrics – Brian Mcknight

If you ever had a grown man
Let me put you in a grown man business
If you ready for a grown man
Lay back and get this grown man business
If you ever had a grown man
Let me put you in a grown man business
If you ready for a grown man
B I'm about my grown man business

You tell me you like him, 'Cause he's young but wild (wild)
So you can't control him 'cause he's always out (deep in the streets)
And when he comes home he don't help with the bills or car note (no)
And although he got a young back, he don't know about that real stroke (that you really need)
I bet you thought that age was just a number (just a little number)
But baby nowadays it makes me wonder
Why he let's you down at the wrong time (You're at a stage where you trying to make moves and he)
Plays you out like a small child (I bet his age got a whole lot to do with it)

[Chorus:]
When the lies and games he runs on you get old (baby, I'm right here)
And whenever you're ready for grown man love come on (I'm right here)
And when you decide that little boys finish girls (girl come here)
Get back and get this grown man business girl ('cause it is right here)

If you're ready for a grown man
Lay back and get this grown man business

He's not really man enough to take care of home (home)
You need that security, somebody sexy and grown (grown and sexy)
He spends what he can, but mama I gives all I have (have)
Just check my track record baby, everything I do is first class (I thought you knew)
I bet you though that age was just a number (just a little number)
But baby nowadays it makes me wonder
He let's you down at the wrong time (Girl I can see that you're out of his league but)
Plays you out like a small child (so if you're ready for me)

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
I got all you need
So make up your mind
And have it the way you like
If you do choose me
I'll promise you, you'll never go back

[Chorus]

I'm right here
I'm right here
I'm right here
I'm right here
Ooooooh, yeah

Everything I Do Lyrics – Brian Mcknight

Baby, no matter what I'm doin'
You know I'd rather be home with you
And honey, doin' all the things wit cha
All the things that you like to do
Like washin' your hair an' paintin' your nails
All the things that your ex-man wouldn't do
Baby no I can't wait to get home to you

[Chorus:]
That's why baby
Everything I do
You know I do it for you
Everything I say is true
We been together so long
All the crazy things that we been through

Baby you know everything I do
I do them for you
You don't hear me through
I said everything I do
I do them for you

Now baby
You know it gets so difficult
To get out of bed with you
To go to my nine to five
It's the only place I feel alive wit cha
And to know that you're somewhere waitin' for me
I know that you're more than enough for me
I can't wait baby 'cause I know what you got for me

[Chorus]

What kind of fool would I be
If I didn't give my all to you
And tell me
Where would I be if I couldn't lay next to you
But if I know that you're down for me
Then I know that everything is alright
And by the time I get home to you
I'm gonna lay a blockbuster on you tonight

[Chorus]

Here With You Lyrics – Brian Mcknight

The night is over
The DJ's 'bout to play a slow jam
I'm waitin' 'bout an hour
For this moment to dance with you
Do you wanna dance with me too

We're hand in hand
We're cheek to cheek
Shoulder to shoulder
I reach around an' grab a little booty
And it feels so good

[Chorus:]
I just wanna tell you
There's no place
I'd rather be
Than here with you

No need to worry
Just let the music take you over
It's startin' to feel like we're in a movie
'Cause it feels so right
Can I drive you home tonight

And I think that this could be
The beginning of a good thing
I look into your eyes
And they tell me
That you feel like I do

[Chorus:]

Now that you and I are here together
Let's make the moment last forever
Ain't no way I might be foolin' around (ain't nobody foolin' around)
And oh
I know I might see you next to never
I'm glad I had this time with you tonight

[Chorus:]

All Over Now Lyrics – Brian Mcknight

Every mornin' runnin' late
Your boss is trying not to hate
You find it hard to concentrate
Thinkin' 'bout this good thing

I try my best to be your man
Use me girl if that's your plan
In the end you'll understand
Happiness is what I bring

[Chorus:]
Baby tell me who
Can someone do it better (oh yeah)
Tell me who
Whenever we're together it's like ooh (oh yeah)
You might start feelin' dizzy (oh yeah)
'Cause it's all over now

I keep you in the mood
It's easy girl 'cause I know what to do (oh yeah)
When the phone is ringin' don't disturb the grove (oh yeah)
You might start feelin' dizzy (oh yeah)
'Cause it's all over now

For your touch
Inside I yearn
To love you more
I want to learn
Your body is my first concern
Only when I'm breathin'

I'll get it 'till I hit it right
When it comes to makin' love I'm nice
You won't have to tell me twice
There's no way that you're leavin'

[Chorus]

Ooh baby when the lights go down
I only wait to hear the sound of you
No holdin' back, let it out
That there's no place you'd rather be right now
Ooh baby is ya feelin' good
Is it better than you thought it would
Are you comin' back I think you should
Over and over again

[Chorus]

She Lyrics – Brian Mcknight (feat. Talib Kweli)

Blessed be the day
She's the finest I've ever seen
Cut from the finest cloth of human being
An' bein' in her presence is like the first day of spring
N' whenever I'm in her arms I hear the angles sing

She moves, She's so graceful
She commands respect
An' ooh she's so well put together
Like she's drawn by an architect
And all of the mistakes that I made before in my life
All fall by the wayside now that she's mine

[Chorus:]
I know she's more woman than I've ever seen
She says that she wants me
She says that she needs me
I know she's more woman than I'll ever need
She says that she love's me
She'll never leave me
[Well:]

Blessed by the way she handles herself
That's why I'm givin' my heart to her and no one else
She knows how to please me
She knows how when and where
She knows the right things to say
Let's me know she cares

She moves, She's so graceful
She commands respect
An' ooh she's so well put together
Like she's drawn by an architect
And all of the mistakes that I made before in my life
All fall by the wayside now that she's mine

[Chorus]

[Rap (Talib Kweli):]
This women make my heart beat twice
When we makin' love in the car late night
Let my soul take flight
Apple of my eye, let me take a bite
I wanna know what you taste like
I ran through all of them
From the Marcia Brady type to Ben Stiller married
To a hood rat chick, rockin' fatigues like the military
From the streets of killa-cali to the shores of tripoli
Dr. Jays on the coture from Italy, yo
I sip a kiss like a glass of wine
I take control in the bedroom 'cause that ass is mine
I'll count the freckles on ya face just to pass the time
You're serenaded by an ill rhyme, mastermind
'Cause you're more than a lover, there's more to
I had to get myself in order just in order to love ya
From head to toe, I had to get you know
I usually don't get down like this but you special though

[Chorus]
