Couldn't We lyrics - Deborah Cox

There were words between us
Words that hurt inside
Still that's just no reason to say the word "good-bye"
We can't let go of something beautiful
We can't just let it die
Can't you and I just try to find one reason
To just give us one more try

[Chorus:]
Couldn't love heal the pain?
Couldn't time take the tears away?
Couldn't you, you and me
Try again
Couldn't we
Couldn't you, couldn't me, couldn't we
Couldn't we

Start the story over
Turn the page tonight
There's nothing wrong between us
That love could not make right
Can't we forgive and let our hearts forget
Let the love back inside
Can't you and I just get back to those feelings
And feel them just one more time?

[Chorus]

Couldn't we turn back the hands of time
To a time when love was right
To those nights when the touch was sweet
Can't we find our way back
Before we lose everything

Couldn't love heal the pain?
Couldn't time take the tears away?
Couldn't you, you and me
Try again

Couldn't we stay together?
Couldn't we make it better?
Couldn't we turn the page
And start the story over?
Couldn't we bring the love back?
Couldn't we have one more chance?
Couldn't we hold each other just a little closer?

One Wish lyrics - Deborah Cox

Here I was rollin' in the car
I drove down past the park
Spotted a couple
Who wasn't in trouble
And they were doin' no harm
She leans down and kisses him on his lips
To give her love back he rubs her hips
Oh, I could feel it
I felt their passion
Running through my warming veins

So bad I wished that that was me
Make love like they do on TV
I see, all I seem to see
Is you and me

[Repeat verse]

[Chorus:]
How I wished that could be
Baby you and me
To become reality
In the perfect love fantasy
If I had one wish it would be
Baby, you and me
To become reality
In the perfect love fantasy

Now I'm not sayin' something's wrong with this relationship
But I know one thing, boy
It could be better
We have bedroom secrets
Sealed with a kiss
But nothing else compares to this
I'm talkin' about that real love
That true love
Can you feel me?

Someday it will be you and me
Makin' love like they do on TV
I see, all I seem to see
Is you and me

[Repeat verse]

[Chorus]

With one exception
I'mma grant your wish
You see I'm diggin' your package
That's why I sealed it with a kiss

Homie's ain't understanding it
They think I'm saving you girl
Never take me for granted
'Cause I'm craving you girl

See my mental state is streetlight
I'm like a fantasy
Spontaneous of mind
I turn your wish into reality

I greet you in the land of lovemaking
A true man, true to you, you
ot even thinking about shaking a spot
We keep it steamy hot
Keep it full-blown baby
Get it, get it, don't stop
Just you and me baby
Touching up stuff
Young dear keep it going
And make it _ like a _

What, ain't it evident that the mood
Goin' to be hanging on us
Getting' love twisted with love
See, I smoked that drama
Go on and tell it
And I could show you
But yes I can tell it

[Chorus X 3]

My one wish would be
For you to make sweet love to me
Like the first time
Baby all the time

I Won't Give Up lyrics - Deborah Cox

Either way, you're gonna know
'Cause what I'm feeling, it's gonna show
Friends may say you're out of my league
But I won't be discouraged
'Cause they just can't see

[Chorus:]
I won't give up that easy
No matter how they tease me
You pick me up and I don't wanna come down
I won't give up that easy
'Cause this feels so good to me
I get this feeling every time you come 'round

Who'd have thought that it would be you
To steal my heart and make me feel the way I do
Now all this time, you've been just a friend
You see, they think I'm crazy to want you for my man

There's no way to explain
What I'm going through
All I know is I'm in love with you

[Chorus]

Don't wanna be without you
'Cause every time I think about you
I feel like I'm going crazy out of my head
I just wanna figure out
How I can go about
Making you feel the same

[Chorus x 2]

Just When I Think I'm Over You lyrics - Deborah Cox

I used to think about it back then
You walked in and said you're leaving me
Good-bye, good-bye
I don't know why I never woke up
Torch of your love you'd given me had died
So I erased you from my mind, but-

[Chorus: (Part 1)]
Just when I think I'm over you
I feel your body cry
Making love to you
Just when I think I'm over you
I hear a song that plays
That we once danced to

I used to think about how you'd pay
The way you would hurt
The way that'd say good-bye, good-bye
And all the lies, they did you no good
You'd live with yourself
I hated you inside 'cause you were over me

[Chorus Part 1]

[Chorus: (Part 2)]
Just when I think I'm over you
I feel the pain again whenever
I see you
Just when I thought that we were done
Baby, time has taught me that you were the one

When you were there I didn't realize
All the things you meant to me
Till you were gone
And now you're just a memory

I'm still not over you
So let's dance, make 'em dance
Come on and dance
I'm still not over you
So let's dance, make 'em dance
Come on and dance

[Repeat Chorus Parts 1 & 2 to fade]

Love Is On The Way lyrics - Deborah Cox

I wanna rock with you
I wanna rock with you
I wanna rock with you

[Chorus:]
Don't you worry love is on the way
As we lay we'll rock the night away
You just name the time and place

I know you miss me
And I've been missing you
Before you know it
I'll be right there next to you

No matter the distance
You're still in my heart
Baby I'm with you
Even though we are apart
So don't worry

[Chorus x 2]

I'm never too busy
When it comes to loving you
Hold on I'll be there
'Cause I have plans for me and you

We can hide away in our secret place
The two of us alone again
A special place
Where our love began
So don't you worry

[Chorus x 2]

We can hide away in our secret place
Just you and me, hide away late at night baby
A special place where our love began
That's where our love began

[Repeat chorus to fade]

I Never Knew lyrics - Deborah Cox

It was a cold day in December
I remember it so well
You captured my whole being
And you left me in a spell

You warmed my heart with passion
Desiring all of you
You left me cold in the summer
I wish that I only knew but-

[Chorus:]
I never knew that you would be the one
To come along and snatch my heart and run
Away from me with no explanation why
I never knew what we had would die
All I wanna do is hide away
From all the hurt and pain of yesterday
Don't you see the tears, the hurt inside?
I never knew, please tell me why

All the nights you left me crying
Keeping company with my fears
That some day you'd leave me lonely
And that's exactly what you did
I swore that I was your baby
The darkest night for you I'd bear
Now that I need you here with me
I call your name and you're not there

You left me standing
So empty-handed
Out in the cold
How was I to know
That my love didn't matter
And my world was shattered
'Cause you left me here
Drowning in tears, oh why?

[Chorus]

After we made plans to spend our lives together
I thought what we had was meant to be forever
Oh why did our love have to go away?
I don't know how, I don't know when
But I know, I'll never love this way again

[Chorus x 2]

I never knew, I never knew
I never knew it could be like this

[Repeat until fade]

One Day You Will lyrics - Deborah Cox

You don't miss me now
You don't miss me now

One day you will
Be walking down the street
And you'll see someone and she will look a lot like me
And you'll think about someone you left behind
And it will make you cry

One day you will
Be starting out your day
And you'll look inside you coffee cup and see my face
And you'll realize the sad mistake you made
And it will be too late

One day you'll wonder why you ever said good-bye
And you will wish you were still right here by my side
But I won't be around
You don't miss me now
You don't miss me now
One day you will

Never find a love like what we had
Never find someone like me again
Through the tears one day you'll see
That the one you need is me
You'll want me back again
You'll want me back again

One day you will
Be driving in your car
And you're gonna hear a song that's gonna break your heart
And you'll wish you'd said those words you didn't say
It will be too late

One day you'll wonder why you ever said good-bye
And you will wish you were still right here, right by my side
But baby I won't be around
You don't miss me now
You don't miss me now

One day you will
Be walking down the street
And you'll see someone and she will look a lot like me
And you'll think about someone you left behind
And it will make you cry

You don't miss me now
You don't miss me now

[Repeat 2 x]

But one day you will
One day you will

Nobody's Supposed To Be Here (Dance Mix) lyrics - Deborah Cox

I've spent all my life, on a search to find
The love who'll stay for eternity
The heaven sent to fulfill my needs
But when I turn around
Again, love has knocked me down
My heart got broken oh, it hurt so bad
I'm sad to say, love wins again

So I placed my heart under lock and key
To take some time, and take care of me
But I turn around and you're standing here

[Chorus:]
How did you get here?
Nobody's supposed to be here
I've tried that love thing for the last time
My heart says no, no!
Nobody's supposed to be here
But you came along and changed my mind

This time I swear I'm through
But if only you knew
How many times I've said those words
Then fall again, when will I ever learn
Knowing these tears I cry
This lovely black butterfly
Must take a chance, and spread my wings
Love can make you do some crazy things

So I placed my heart under lock and key
To take some time, and take care of me
But I turn around and you're standing here

No, nobody, no, no, no, no, no, no, ooh!

No, no, no...

[Chorus x 2]

Things Just Ain't The Same (Dance Mix) lyrics - Deborah Cox

I saw you the other day
And I almost lost my mind
I remember the things we did
I can't believe it's a waste of time
And sometimes I wanna cry
And sometimes I wanna die
Please help me understand
Why can't my heart just lie?

[Chorus:]
Things just ain't the same
He could never be you
You should know the pain I feel
Understand what I'm going through

I'm still in love with you
And I know that you feel it too
But I feel that I can't go on
I just want you to come back home
I'm so ashamed of me
My heart is not complete
I know you walked away
My heart wants you to stay

[Chorus]

The water's in my eyes
Can't hide what I feel inside
I said the tears keep falling down
I can feel it when you're not around babe
I've lost control of me
Yet your love's a shame to see
I just cannot help myself
I don't want nobody else

Sometimes I wanna cry
Sometimes I wanna die
Please help me understand
Why can't my heart just lie?

[Chorus x 3]

"Deborah Cox" (1995)

Sentimental lyrics - Deborah Cox

I used to mess around
But I never let it get into me
'Cause I didn't take you serious baby
Now to be without your love
Only makes me realize
What I could've had in you honey

Now that you're gone (oooooooh ooooh ooooh)
I want you more
I said it slapped me in my face
And then my friends don't understand
Because I had the chance
I don't know why

[Chorus:]
I'm going crazy alone in a daze
And my heart ain't the same
And I don't even think unless I think about you
That's the only time I get sentimental
That's the reason why baby
I can't let go of you
Yeah, that's the only time I get sentimental

I miss you day and night, seems like you're still here
I'd rather be together honey
Now that I'm lost for words
I can't believe I'm on my own
I should've been looking at love

Now that you're gone
I want you (oooh ooh oooh)
I said it slapped me on my face
And now my friends don't understand
Because I had the chance
I don't know why

[Chorus x 2]

Now that you're gone I want you more
I said it slapped me on my face
And then my friends don't understand
Because I had the chance
I don't know why

[Chorus x 2]

Who Do U Love lyrics - Deborah Cox

Last night I slept alone
I stayed at home
For the first time since you've been gone babe
No friends to understand
To lend a helping hand
To ease the greatest pain I've ever known

How you walked away so easily
Still remains a mystery to me
Don't you remember that you promised me?
Yes you promised me that you'd never leave boy
But you went away babe
And it's such a shame
How could you turn your back on me?

[Chorus:]
If you really don't want me
If you really don't need me
If you really don't love me
Tell me who do you love?
If you really don't want me
If you really don't need me
If you really don't love me
Then who do you love?

I gave, gave everything
A man could ever need
I was there whenever you would call me baby
But somehow your feelings changed
You don't act the same
I guess you're not the man that I once knew at all

How you walked away so easily
Still remains a mystery to me
Don't you remember that you promised me?
Yes you promised me that you'd never leave boy
Now the love is gone babe
Tell me what went wrong
How could you leave me hanging on? Oh baby

[Chorus x 2]

I once was blind but baby now I see
That I'm not the one
Who can fill your every need
I painted a picture so clear, it's reality
Now I know, yes I know
That you're not the one for me
Ooooh baby, oh yeah
Who do you love baby?
If you don't want me
If you don't need me

How could you walk away from me?
Baby you promised you'd never leave
Slept alone since you've been gone
The greatest pain I've ever known
Oh babe, oh babe oh yeah

[Chorus x 2]

I'm Your Natural Woman lyrics - Deborah Cox

You've gotta know
You are my heart and soul
I can't just let go
I gave you years
Cried a river of tears
So you wanna change
Baby who's to blame
My love burns like a flame
Yes I love you still
And I guess I always will

[Chorus:]
I'm your natural woman
I'll be there when there's no one
'Cause my loving is real
But you don't see it now
Since you put me down
But I'll be there for you when there's no one around

You've been my life
For you I've sacrificed
Stayed up every night
That you didn't call
How I worried all night long
Things feel so strange
Last night I called out your name
I thought I saw your face
Here next to me
Maybe someday soon it will be

[Chorus]

Baby can you tell me how could you leave me lonely
Baby when you know that I've given my only
Heart to you, whatever you do
Baby don't be a fool

I'll give you time
Baby to make up your own mind
Whatever you decide
I won't break the vows
Oh no, no not ever, no not now

[Repeat chorus to fade]

The Sound Of My Tears lyrics - Deborah Cox

Always the life of the party
Always the clown of the class
All of my friends see me happy baby
But happy is only a mask

Nobody knows when I'm alone inside my room
I sing another tune

[Chorus:]
I'm goin' down
When I hear the sound
The sound of my tears
When you're not around
It's all I can do
When I listen to
The sound of my tears baby when I'm missing you

Don't mind the sounds of the city baby
Don't mind the noise of the crowd
Just when I'm lonely with my thoughts of you
The silence is always too loud

Pay it no mind
You know the truth behind the smile
It's only just a lie

[Chorus x 2]

Pay it no mind
You know the truth behind the smile
It's only just a lie

[Repeat chorus to fade]

Call Me lyrics - Deborah Cox

Someone who loves you
Wants to give you all you've been searching for
I've been here waiting
You don't have to look around anymore

Don't you know to you I'd give my all
I'll dry those tears when they fall
If you just ask me to
My best I'll do

[Chorus:]
Won't you call me boy whenever you need me
Don't be afraid to say what's on your mind
When you need those loving arms to hold you
Won't you call me I'll be there just to show you that I care

I know, I know it's not easy babe
When you've gotta carry the hurt inside
But you can depend on me
'Cause I'll always be there right by your side
You should know, that when it comes to my love
I'd gladly give, give it all to you
Just ask me to
I'm here for you

[Chorus x 2]

Don't you know
If you show me your emotions
I'll do the best I can to try to understand
So let go, you'll be safe with me
Don't be afraid now baby
'Cause I'll be right there for you
'Cause you know that you can trust me with your heart

[Chorus x 3]
