Gotta catch that plane at seven thirty Why haven't you come to say goodbye Time is running out and I'm still waiting I'm so lost without you, I could die Yesterday you said you loved me Everything seemed to be fine Today you're not here, I'm so lonely It's the waiting that's driving me out of my mind Don't know how I'll sing in that big city How can I perform if you're not there This will be the worst of all my journeys The image of your face will follow me everywhere I need your tender kisses The feel of your hands, your caress Your perfume has me burning My heart is yearning to touch you I need you so much If you're not here, by my side Can't hold back the tears I try to hide Don't think I can take it I know I won't make it Make it without you If you're not here, by my side Only your love keeps me alive No sense in dreaming My life has no meaning If you're not here I need your tender kisses The feel of your hands, your caress Your perfume has me burning My heart is yearning to touch you I need you so much If you're not here, by my side Can't hold back the tears I try to hide Don't think I can take it I know I won't make it Make it without you If you're not here, by my side Only your love keeps me alive No sense in dreaming My life has no meaning If you're not here

There's something you got that really gets me going It's hard to believe the way the feeling's growing So let me say before my heart starts showing I'm only in it for the love I want you to know you got my full attention And every move is with my best intention Before we go on, I thought I ought to mention I'm only in it for the love I'm only in it for the love and affection I think I'm heading in the right direction I guess the question that I'm really asking Is do you want a love that's everlasting? So many times I let my heart get broken I close my eyes and left my self wide open Now I only deal in real emotions I'm only in it for the love I'm only in it for the love and affection I think I'm heading in the right direction I guess the question that I'm really asking Is do you want a love that's everlasting? So many times I let my heart get broken I close my eyes and left my heart wide open And now I only deal in real emotions I'm only in it for the love, I'm only in it for the love I'm on it [Incomprehensible] now I'm only in it for the love and affection I think I'm heading in the right direction I guess the question that I'm really asking Is do you want a love that's everlasting? So many times I let my heart get broken I close my eyes and left my self wide open And now I only deal in real emotions I'm only in it for the love, I'm only in it for the love I'm only in it for the love

Goodbye, future, once so bright, meet my pregnant girlfriend Watch my bank account run dry, four-hundred-thirty-seven dollars spent To put things back to the way they used to be Still, I would've spent so much more But four-hundred-thirty-seven dollars somehow shakes all responsibility But it's not easy She looks me dead in the eyes and says, "Hey, Brian If you still believe in the Lord above Get on your hands and knees and pray for us Get on your hands and knees and pray for us" The past few months were pretty rough A couple times wished we both were dead I never cried like that before I thought my eyes would pop out of my head Not just preparing for nightmares Years and years, I do suppose But nothing feels alright now The length of my hair or the fit of my clothes And crying like a baby solved nothing 'Cause I can leave, so what now, what, so where do I go? 'Cause I could imagine myself throwing all my clothes Inside a suitcase without bothering to fold them 'Cause I could imagine myself throwing all my things Inside a suitcase without bothering to fold them She looked me dead in the eyes and said, "Hey, Brian If you still believe in the Lord above Get on your hands and knees and pray for us Get on your hands and knees and pray for us" Because freshness is expected from any hip-hop artist I avoid using traditional techniques I avoid using traditional techniques, techniques Techniques, techniques, techniques, techniques, techniques
