Here We Go Around Again lyrics - Mariah Carey

Mmm, yeah
Mmm
Let me tell you something, baby
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, yeah

I wish I understood why I can't get over you at all
You pushed me to the side, but I come a-running when you call
(Come a-running)
You step outside my life and you leave me waiting for a sign (Waiting for you)
And then you come around
Give me your apologies and I don't mind

Here we go around again
One more time
Will it ever end? (Will it ever end?)
Here we go around again
It's all the same
Never gonna change (Never gonna change)

I'm tryin' to believe you won't go away again this time, oh no
But something deep inside tells me
That you're gonna change your mind
(Gonna change your mind, yeah)
Well, I'll never pin you down
Makes me wonder why I even try, Lord, oh
You say you'll stick around
But somehow, I know you'll say goodbye

Here we go around again (Oh no, wait a minute)
One more time
Will it ever end? (Will it ever end?)
Here we go around again
It's all the same
Never gonna change (Never gonna change)

Here we go around again (Oh yeah, uh-huh)
One more time (Oh yeah)
Will it ever end? (Yeah)
Here we go around again
It's all the same
Never gonna change

First you leave me
Then you keep me
Waitin' around 'til you come back again (Hey hey)
Make your mind up
'Cause it's so tough
When I don't know if I'm with or without your love
Love, ooh baby
Your love, hey hey
Uh-huh, oh yes

Here we go around again
One more time
Will it ever end? (Oh, will it ever end?)
Here we go around again (Here we go, here we go around again)
It's all the same
Never gonna change (Never gonna change)
Here we go around again
One more time
Will it ever end? (Will it ever end?)
Here we go around again (Here we go, here we go)
It's all the same (Oh no, no)
Never gonna change (Oh baby)

Here we go around again (Oh yeah)
Here we go around again (Yeah)
Here we go around again (Oh yeah)
(Around again with you, my friend, yeah, yeah)
Here we go around again
The end of that was... iffy

Can You Hear Me lyrics - Mariah Carey

Sometimes I feel so alone and uncertain
Sometimes I don't feel at all
Searching my soul for a reason for living
Needing you here holding on to me

Sometimes I feel like you don't understand me
You'll never know me at all, no-no
Searching your eyes but you don't really see me
Out of my mind as I call

Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Don't let our love fade away
'Cause I need you
I still need you
Don't let it all fade away

Sometimes I try to pretend I'm not hurting
Hide with my face to the wall
Searching my mind for the reasons you're leaving
Dying inside as I call

Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Don't let our love fade away
'Cause I need you
I still need you
Don't let it all fade away

I need to feel you
I long to touch you
I never dreamed we'd end up this way
I'm slowly drowning, oh
My fears surround me
Can't breathe without you
Don't fade away

Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Don't let our love fade away
'Cause I need you
I still need you
Don't let it all fade away, no
Don't let it all fade away, no baby
Woo-ooh
Don't fade away

Do You Think Of Me lyrics - Mariah Carey

I wonder if you think of me
Somewhere in the shadows of your mind
Although our love could never be
I find I think about you all the time (Ooh, baby)

Am I in your fantasies?
The way you always wander into mine
And are you longing endlessly?
Just like me deep inside (Oh, baby, baby)

When the nights are dark and cold
(Do you think of me, do you think of me?)
And when you're lying all alone
(Do you think of me, do you think of me?)
When you feel the touch of another love
(Do you think of me, do you think of me?)
Am I the one you're dreaming of?
(Do you think of me, do you think of me?)

I picture you embracing me
We drift away and leave the world behind, baby
But it's only make believe
Love can be so unkind (Oh, baby, baby, baby)

When the nights are dark and cold
(Do you think of me, do you think of me?)
And when you're lying all alone
(Do you think of me, do you think of me?)
When you feel the touch of another love
(Do you think of me, do you think of me?)
Am I the one you're dreaming of?
(Do you think of me, do you think of me?)

Hey, tell me, baby (Tell me, baby)
'Cause I need you, baby ('Cause I need you, baby)
Really love you, baby

When the nights are dark and cold
(Do you think of me, do you think of me?)
And when you're lying all alone
(Do you think of me, do you think of me?)
When you feel the touch of another love
(Do you think of me, do you think of me?)
Am I the one you're dreaming of?
(Do you think of me, do you think of me?)
When the nights are dark and cold
(Do you think of me, do you think of me?)
And when you're lying all alone (When I'm lying all alone)
(Do you think of me, do you think of me?)
When you feel the touch of another love
(Do you think of me, do you think of me?)
Am I the one you're dreaming of?
(Do you think of me, do you think of me?)

'Cause I think about you, baby
When I'm lying all alone, yeah
I think of you
Yes, I do

Everything Fades Away lyrics - Mariah Carey

Baby, don't tell me you miss me, you love me
Don't whisper gently that you can't forget me tonight
Tonight
'Cause I've heard it all before
Just turn away, don't play that game
Baby, I don't want to anymore

Let it all fade away
Don't you know the love is gone
It's too late
Everything fades away
Nothing ever stays the same, baby
No, no, no

Don't tell me you're sorry you hurt me
How many times can I give in?
How many battles can you win?
Oh, don't beg for mercy tonight
Tonight
'Cause I can't take anymore
Just turn around, don't break me down
Baby, I don't love you like before

Let it all fade away
Don't you know that love is gone?
It's too late, oh
Everything fades away
Nothing ever stays the same, baby
Oh, oh

So hard for me to let you go
Don't leave me standing in the cold
Oh baby, give it one more chance
I know that we can make it last

Just let me love you one more time
'Cause I don't wanna lose my mind
So hard for me to let you go
So hard for me to let you go

Let it all fade away (Why don't you?)
Love is gone it's too late (The love is gone, baby, it's too late, oh)
Everything fades away (Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh)
Nothing ever stays the same, babe
Nothing ever stays the same
Oh, whoa, whoa

Let it all fade away (Oh, let it fade away)
Love is gone, it's too late (The love is gone, baby, it's too late)
Everything fades away (Every, everything, fades away)
Nothing ever stays the same

It only fades, it only fades
Only fades, it only fades
Baby, don't tell me you miss me you love me
It only fades, it only fades
Only fades, it only fades (Whoa, oh)
Baby, don't tell me you miss me, you love me (Whoa, oh)
It only fades, it only fades
Only fades, it only fades (Whoa)
Baby don't tell me you miss me, you love me (Whoa, oh)
It only fades, it only fades
Only fades, it only fades (Whoa)
Baby, don't tell me you miss me

All I Live For lyrics - Mariah Carey

(Oh baby, you're all)
Baby, you're all
(Oh baby, you're all)
Oh, baby, yeah
Ooh yeah, yeah, baby

You oughta know
I'm just alone
And I would never let you down
There shouldn't be uncertainty
No I would never play around

No baby don't be so insecure
Nobody's gonna steal my heart away
Just trust me
Our loving will endure
If I'm the only one for you boy
And you're the only one for me

Baby you're all I live for
All I have
Till forever
Good or bad
Everything that I adore
Baby you're all I live for

When I'm away
Don't be afraid
Baby you're always on my mind
Though we're apart
You're in my heart
Baby your love keeps me alive

Darling you're everything to me
No other love could ever take your place
There's no need for pain and jealousy
'Cause you're the only thing I treasure
And you're the only one I need

Baby you're all I live for
All I have
Till forever
Good or bad (Oh, no, no)
Everything that I adore
Baby you're all I live for

And our love will shine (Shine, shine)
Oh, shine forever more
Time after time (Time, time)
Baby I find myself falling
Deeper than before
Baby you're all
Ooh, yeah, yeah

Baby you're all I live for
All I need
Till forever (forever)
Good or bad (you are)
Everything that I adore (I adore)
All I live for
Baby, you're all

One Night lyrics - Mariah Carey

Baby, don't you know
That life is sweet?
It swiftly goes
So I just gotta know
That it's more than lust (So in love)
That you're worth my trust (So in love)
You gotta search inside yourself
And purely open up to me
Before I'll be with you
You gotta give me something sacred
More than merely physical (So in love)
One night's not enough
Gotta be certain
I'm so in love with you

It's just another Saturday evening
He's watching all the girls go by
He finds your body kind of appealing
So he hits you with his favorite lie, yes
He's looking you over
He whispers, "Let's get to know each other better, baby"
He's moving in closer
But what you see may not be the entirety
So be wary

He's just out for the one night
He just wants you 'til he gets his way now, baby, baby
So don't gamble with your life
It don't pay (Don't! No, no, no)
(Baby, baby, baby, don't)
(Baby, baby, no, no no)

You see her standing there on the corner
Sashaying as the cars go by
You casually look over your shoulder
As she winks at you and bats her eyes, yes
You're thinking about it
Your conscience tells you to go
But something's in the way now
The prospect's arousing
You think just this once can't hurt them
But you might have another thing coming

You're just out for a good time
Baby, so later you'll forget her name (Now, baby, baby)
So don't gamble with your life, it don't pay
(Don't don't, surely don't pay)
(Just a little advice now)
(Baby, baby)
(You'd better think twice now)
(Said you'd better think twice now)

You're just out for the one night
But it's more than a little game now, baby, baby (It's more)
So don't gamble with your life
It don't pay
Yeah, it don't pay

No no, don't pay
It don't pay
No no no no no it don't
It don't pay
No, it don't, no, it don't
It don't pay
It don't pay
It don't pay
It don't pay

Slipping Away lyrics - Mariah Carey

So far, so far
You're slipping away, away
You're slipping away from the life and the love we made
Baby, I'm so afraid
So far, so far, so far
You're slipping away, away
You're slipping right out of my grasp
When you're fading fast it seems
You know you're slipping away from me

I keep on reaching and I
I keep on trying
But you never even hold me
And it seems like you don't know me, baby
I keep on yearning and I
I guess I'm learning
That it's just a losing fight
'Cause there's no passion in your eyes

So far, so far
You're slipping away, away
Slipping away from the life and the love we made
Baby, I'm so afraid
So far, so far, so far
You're slipping away, away
Slipping right out of my grasp
When you're fading fast it seems
You know you're slipping away from me

I keep denying that our
Our love is dying
But it's all a big charade
And it's a fruitless game to play
I can't remember when you
You last were tender
And it's always touch and go
The silence chills me to the bone

So far, so far
You're slipping away, away
You're slipping away from the life and the love we made
Baby, I'm so afraid
So far, so far, so far
You're slipping away, away
Slipping right out of my grasp
When you're fading fast it seems
When you're slipping away from me
Away, away, away, away, yeah
Hey, yeah

Further, further (Further, further)
Ooh, yeah
You're so far

Time after time I reach for you
Try and I try, but you're so aloof
Where is the boy that you used to be?
Baby, you're slipping away from me (You're so far)
Time after time I reach for you
Try and I try, but you're so aloof (Baby, baby, baby)
Where is the boy that you used to be?
Baby, you're slipping away from me (You're so far)

So far, so far
You're slipping away, away
Slipping away from what we had
Truly, I just don't understand (You're so far)
So far, so far, so far
You're slipping away, away
You're slipping right out of my grasp
When you're fading so fast it seems
You know you're slipping away

Time after time I reach for you
Try and I try, but you're so aloof
Where is the boy that you used to be?
Baby, you're slipping away from me

Time after time I reach for you (So far, so far)
Try and I try, but you're so aloof (Yeah)
Where is the boy that you used to be?
Baby, you're slipping away from me (Baby, baby, baby)
Time after time I reach for you (So far)
Try and I try but you're so aloof
Where is the boy that you used to be?
Baby, you're slipping away from me (Yeah, yeah)
Time after time I reach for you (So far, so far)
Try and I try but you're so aloof (So far)
Where is the boy that you used to be?
Baby, you're slipping away from me
Time after time I reach for you
Try and I try, but you're so aloof

Out Here On My Own lyrics - Mariah Carey

(originally by Irene Cara)

Sometimes I wonder
Where I've been
Who I am
Do I fit in
Make believing is hard alone
Out here on my own

We're always proving
Who we are
Always reaching for
That rising star
To guide me far and shine me home
Out here on my own

When I'm down and feeling blue
I close my eyes so I can be with you
Oh baby be strong for me
Baby belong to me
Help me through
Help me need you

Until the morning
Sun appears
Making light
Of all my fears
I dry the tears I've never shown
Out here on my own

But when I'm down and feeling blue
I close my eyes so I can be with you
Oh baby be strong for me
Baby belong to me
Help me through
Help me need you

Sometimes I wonder
Where I've been
Who I am
Do I fit in
I may not win but I can't be thrown
Out here on my own

Out here on my own

Loverboy (Firecracker - Original Version) lyrics - Mariah Carey

Come here (Uh, uh-huh, uh-huh, baby)

I want him, I want him, I want him, I want him
I need him, I need him, I need him, I need him
I love him, I love him, I love him, I love him
I love him, I love him, I love him, I love him

(Ah, uh-huh, uh-huh, baby)
I love him, I love him, I love him, I love him
(Ah, uh-huh, uh-huh, baby)

I got myself a lover
Who knows what I like
When he invites me over
I come every time
And when my sugar daddy
Takes me for a ride
Whatever way we go
It's delirium time

He's all mine
(I want him, I want him, I want him, I want him)
And his lovin' makes me high
(I need him, I need him, I need him, I need him)
Like a taste of ecstasy
(I love him, I love him, I love him, I love him)
All I need is him to be my loverboy
(I love him, I love him, I love him, I love him)

Loverboy, c'mon and love me
Give me more, touch me and touch me
I enjoy the way you rock me (I like the way)
All night long (Baby, all night long)
Loverboy, c'mon and take me (Loverboy, come take me)
Only you know how to make me (Only you can make me)
Shudder with anticipation (Shuddering)
All night long

I got myself a lover
And he's so sublime
It's quite a bit of Heaven
To feel him inside
'Cause when my sugar daddy
Takes me for a ride
Whatever way we go
It's delirium time

I get weak
(I want him, I want him, I want him, I want him)
When his candy kisses sweetly
(I need him, I need him, I need him, I need him)
Caress my whole body
(I love him, I love him, I love him, I love him)
All I need is him to be my loverboy
(I love him, I love him, I love him, I love him)

Loverboy, c'mon and love me
Give me more, touch me and touch me
I enjoy the way you rock me (I enjoy the way you rock me)
All night long
Loverboy, c'mon and take me (C'mon and take me)
Only you know how to make me (Ooh, you know how to make me)
Shudder with anticipation
All night long (All night long)

Hey loverboy (Ah, uh-huh, uh-huh, baby)
Hey loverboy (Ah, uh-huh, uh-huh, baby)
Hey loverboy (Ah, uh-huh, uh-huh, baby)
Loverboy

Loverboy, c'mon and love me
Give me more, touch me and touch me (Give it to me)
I enjoy the way you rock me
All night long (All night long)
Loverboy, c'mon and take me
Only you know how to make me (I enjoy)
Shudder with anticipation
All night long (My loverboy)

Hey pretty loverboy
My sugar daddy
Hey pretty loverboy

I Pray lyrics - Mariah Carey

Ooh, yeah

Lord I pray
That in my lifetime there will come a day
When the world will wake up with unclouded eyes and
There'll be no more need to cry
Won't you bring that dream to life

Oh Lord I pray
Deliver us from bigotry and hate
Please give shelter to the wayward children
And comfort them and keep them safe

Oh Lord I pray
For a world with no weapons one day
Please give wisdom to the ones who lead us
Jesus help them find their way

Oh, I'm praying that the love you shower down on us
Will lift us up and we will live as one
I know there'll come a day
I know you'll make a way
Please listen as I pray

Lord, I pray (Lord, I pray)
That in my lifetime there will come a day
When the world will wake up with unclouded eyes and
There'll be no more need to cry
Won't you bring that dream to life?

Lord, I pray (Lord, I pray)
That in my lifetime there will come a day (There will come a time)
When we all can open up our hearts and minds
And see we're all the same inside
Won't you bring that dream to life?

Won't you bring that dream to life?

Cool On You lyrics - Mariah Carey

Mesmerized lyrics - Mariah Carey

I'm testing the microphone, oh-oh
'Cause them regular folk went home, yeah-yeah
(Home, home, home)
I need you, come on
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

Touching you in dreams of blue
In a mesmerizing interlude
Half asleep, semi conscious
But I know this feeling ain't gon' pass

The moments that we shared seem so very real
Undeniably so
Tough guy exterior but, ooh, I got a glimpse
You're falling in love
And you'll never be the same again, mesmerized
(You're mesmerized)

Just say, just say, yeah-yeah
Tell me that you want it, you want it, you want it
Tell me that you want it, you want it, you want it
Just say, just say, yeah-yeah
Tell me that you want it, you want it, you want it
Tell me that you want it, you want it, you want it

Touching you in dreams of blue
In a mesmerizing interlude
Half asleep, semi conscious
But I know this feeling ain't gon' pass

The moments that we shared seem so very real
Undeniably so
Tough guy exterior but, ooh, I got a glimpse
You're falling in love
And you'll never be the same again, mesmerized
(You're mesmerized)

Just say, just say, yeah-yeah
Tell me that you want it, you want it, you want it
Tell me that you want it, you want it, you want it

Tell me that you want it, you want it, you want it
Tell me that you want it, you want it, you want it

Baby, baby, baby (Babe)
I'm here waiting for your call (For your call)
Just thinking of you
I keep holding on
Baby, I'm mesmerized

Lullaby Of Birdland lyrics - Mariah Carey

(originally by Morris Levy)

'Cause it's a chanteuse, darling, I'm a chanteuse
I'm on the stage
Gotta feel it
I'm on the piano, you know how good this feels?
When I was little, I would be in lingerie on the piano
At like, 13
Appropriate? Not really
But it's me, and I can't help it

Lullaby of birdland, that's what I
Always hear when you sigh
Never in my wordland
Could there be ways to reveal
In a phrase how I feel

Have you ever heard two turtle doves
Bill and coo when they love?
That's the kind of magic
Music we make with our lips when we kiss

And there's a weepy old willow
He really knows how to cry
That's how I'd cry in my pillow
If you should say farewell and goodbye

Ooh, lullaby of birdland whisper low
Kiss me sweet, then we'll go
Flyin' high in birdland
High in the sky up above
All because we're in love

And there's a weepy old willow
And he really knows how to cry
That's how I'd cry in my pillow
If you should say
Fare thee well and goodbye

Lullaby of birdland whisper low
Kiss me sweet then we'll go
Flyin' high in birdland
High in the sky up above
All because we're in love

High in the sky up above
All because we're in love
In love
I'm so in love with you, boy
All because we're in love
And all because
I can't live without you
I won't live without you
I'm making up something
But that don't mean nothin' 'cause it's
In love

He said let me grab that
Before it becomes a tangent

Save The Day (2020) lyrics - Mariah Carey (with Lauryn Hill)

We're all in this together
You're my only hope
And it's too divided, too deep to understand
But if we don't do it, tell me, who will?
Oh, we always say these words that don't mean too much
I wonder, where is the love?
It's curious
The fear still holding us down
One day, will we look up?

You got a right to your own opinion
But when it comes to the world we live in
Isn't it time that we start rebuilding
All of the things that have basically crumbled?
We all tend to forget that
We all cease to exist if
We all live for ourselves
If nobody bothers to find a solution

If he won't, and she won't, and they won't, then we won't
We won't ever learn to save the day, whoa, oh
If he won't, and she won't, and they won't, then we won't
We won't ever learn to save the day

We're all in this together
You're my only hope (Only hope)
And it's too divided, too deep to understand
But if we don't do it, tell me, who will? Yeah
Always say these words that don't mean too much
I wonder, where is the love?
It's curious
That fear still holding us back
One day, will we look up?
It's up to us

If he won't, and she won't, and they won't, then we won't
We won't ever learn to save the day, whoa, oh
(To save the day, to save the day)
If he won't, and she won't, and they won't, then we won't (Come on, come on)
(Will we?) We won't ever learn to save the day
(Ever learn, no)

La-la-la, la, la-la, la
Whoa, la
Whoa, la (Ah, ah, ah)
La

If he won't, and she won't, and they won't, then we won't
We won't ever learn to save the day, whoa, oh (To save the day)
If he won't, and she won't, and they won't, then we won't (And she won't)
We won't ever learn to save the day, whoa, oh (I'ma have to learn to save the day)
If he won't, and she won't, and they won't, then we won't (All God's children, all God's children)
We won't ever learn to save the day (All God's children, to save the day)

We gon' learn, we gon' learn
Said we gotta learn

Close My Eyes (Acoustic) lyrics - Mariah Carey

I was a wayward child
With the weight of the world
That I held deep inside
Life was a winding road
And I learned many things
Little ones shouldn't know

But I closed my eyes
Steadied my feet on the ground
Raised my head to the sky
And the times rolled by
Still I feel like a child
As I look at the moon
Maybe I grew up a little too soon

Funny how one can learn
To grow numb to the madness
And block it away
I left the worst unsaid
Let it all dissipate
And I try to forget

As I closed my eyes
Steadied my feet on the ground
Raised my head to the sky
And the times rolled by
Still I feel like a child
As I look at the moon
Maybe I grew up a little too soon

Nearing the edge
Oblivious I almost fell right over
A part of me
Will never be quite able to feel stable
That woman-child failing inside
Was on the verge of fading
Thankfully I woke up in time

Guardian angel, I
Sail away on an ocean
With you by my side
Orange clouds roll by
They burn into your image
And you're still alive

But I closed my eyes
(You are, you're always a light)
Steadied my feet on the ground
(Mmm, mmm)
Raised my head to the sky
(Guardian angel)
And the times rolled by
(And the times rolled by)
Still I feel like a child
As I look at the moon
Maybe I grew up a little too soon

Caution (2018)













GTFO lyrics - Mariah Carey

 How 'bout you?

How 'bout you?


You took my love for granted

You left me lost and disenchanted

Bulldozed my heart as if you planned it

My prince was so unjustly handsome


Who was that knight in shining armor?

I could've sworn you'd love me harder

Might as well down this Caymus bottle

I ain't the type to play the martyr


How 'bout you get the fuck out?

How 'bout you get the fuck out?

Get the fuck out

(How 'bout you)

Take your tings and be on your merry way

Fly off with the wind, bye bye baby

(How 'bout you)

Scusa mi, Mimi call you a valet

(You just) take your tings and be on your merry way


My friends all saw it in your eyes

They told me once, they told me twice

I looked beyond all the signs

I guess false love makes you blind, ay


Who was that knight in shining armor?

(You, you, you)

I could've sworn you'd love me harder

(You, you, you)

Might as well down this Caymus bottle

(You, you, you)

I ain't the type to play the martyr


How 'bout you get the fuck out? (How about)

How 'bout you get the fuck out?

How about you get the fuck out?

(How 'bout you)

Take your tings and be on your merry way

(How 'bout you)

Fly off with the wind, bye bye, baby

(How 'bout you)

Scusa mi, Mimi call you a valet

(How 'bout you)

Take your tings and be on your merry way

How 'bout you get the fuck out?

(Fuck out, fuck out)


(Get the fuck out)

Stop telling me these lies when you're bluffing

How 'bout you get the fuck out?

Go stay at your friend's house or something

Don't mean to be rude, but take your shit and leave

(How 'bout you)

Go stay at your friend's house or something

(How 'bout you)

Go stay with your homeboys you was talking to

(How 'bout you)

I ain't tryna be rude, but you're lucky

(How 'bout you)

I ain't kick your ass out last weekend


(How 'bout you)

Take your tings and be on your merry way

(How 'bout you)

Fly off with the wind, bye bye, baby

With You lyrics - Mariah Carey

 Uh-huh

Yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh

With you

With you, you, you

With you, you, you

With you, you, you

Mustard on that beat, ho


It was all so overwhelming

She was like, "I don't know, don't tell me"

He had eyes that said, "Girl, I'll save you"

She had doubts, like they might not make it

So they both held tight to face it

There were vows, she was bound to take 'em

She was full of such trepidation

There in front of the whole damn nation


It was war, can't predict the comin' storm

Promise that you'll keep me warm

I don't wanna play this wrong

He said, "Yo, I've been lovin' you so long

Ever since that Bone Thugs song

You ain't gotta break down, you're too strong"


Ooh, shots of Remy

Playing Confessions, and our bodies blendin'

Ooh, I'm in love, it's true

Yeah, damn I fucks with you

And we all make mistakes sometimes

But we muddle through

I don't know what I'm supposed to do (Boy)

Oh baby, I'm in love, it's true

With you, you, you

With you, you, you

With you, you, you

Baby, I'm in love, it's true


Waves were breakin' on that shore

As we were sneakin' through that door

Had to leave by half past four

Still I yearned to touch you more and more


It was war, can't predict the comin' storm

Promise that you'll keep me warm

I don't wanna play this wrong

He said, "Yo, I've been lovin' you so long

Ever since that Bone Thugs song

You ain't gotta break down, you're too strong"


Ooh, shots of Remy

Playing Confessions, and our bodies blendin'

Ooh, I'm in love, it's true

Yeah, damn I fucks with you (You, you)

And we all make mistakes sometimes

But we muddle through

I don't know what I'm s'posed to do (Boy)

Oh baby, I'm in love, it's true

And ooh, shots of Remy

Playing Confessions, and our bodies blendin'

Ooh, I'm in love, it's true

Yeah, damn I fucks with you (Aye)

And we all make mistakes sometimes

But we muddle through

I don't know what I'm s'posed to do (boy)

Oh baby, I'm in love, it's true

With you, you, you

(With you, with you, with you, with you)

With you, you, you (Oh yeah)

With you, you, you (Oh yeah, yeah)

Oh baby, baby, I'm in love, it's true


Caution lyrics - Mariah Carey

 Never too late, you can come through

I'll be up waiting

I don't want nobody but you

No hesitating

'Cause every time you leave I fall apart

Boy you're the missing pieces of my heart


And I try to let you go but you resist and pull me back

And I try to be alone but you persist, I've met my match


Proceed with caution, don't be dishonest

I need you closer to love me harder

Proceed with caution, face to face

And touch me in a different kind of way

Proceed with caution, but don't make me wait

Before too long it just might fade away

Proceed with caution, caution, caution, caution, caution


Never get enough gimme your touch

Don't wanna waste time

You lift me up, give me that rush

Tell me it's all mine

I'll give up everything to be right where you are

I'll follow you from here like you're the northern star


And I try to let you go but you resist and pull me back

And I try to be alone but you persist, I've met my match


Proceed with caution, don't be dishonest

I need you closer to love me harder

Proceed with caution, face to face

And touch me in a different kind of way

Proceed with caution, but don't make me wait

Before too long it just might fade away

Proceed with caution, caution, caution, caution, caution


Do you want more material possessions? Ain't nothing

Do you want more? Can you commit to be my everything?

Do you want more? Baby convince me with the words you sing

If you wanna be more to me, you must proceed with caution

Caution, caution, caution

Caution, caution, caution

Caution, caution, yeah

Proceed with caution


Proceed with caution, don't be dishonest (Don't be dishonest)

I need you closer to love me harder (I need)

Proceed with caution, face to face (Proceed with caution)

And touch me in a different kind of way (A different kind if way)

Proceed with caution, don't be dishonest (Don't be dishonest)

I need you closer to love me harder (I need)

Proceed with caution, face to face

And touch me in a different kind of way (Touch me, touch me)

Proceed with caution, but don't make me wait

Before too long it just might fade away

Proceed with caution, caution, caution, caution
