Mary J. Blige - Be Without You

 
I wanna be with you, gotta be with you, need to be with you
(Oh-oh, oh-oh)
I wanna be with you, gotta be with you, need to be with you
(Oh-oh, oh-oh)
Ooh (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
Ooh (Oh-oh, oh-oh)

Chemistry was crazy from the get-go
Neither one of us knew why
We didn't build nothin' overnight
'Cause a love like this takes some time
People swore it off as a phase, said we can't see that
Now from top to bottom, they see that we did that
(Yes) It's so true that
(Yes) We been through it
(Yes) We got real shit
(Yes) See, baby

We've been too strong for too long
And I can't be without you, baby
And I'll be waitin' up until you get home
'Cause I can't sleep without you, baby (Oh)
Anybody who's ever loved you know just what I feel
Too hard to fake it, nothin' can replace it
Call the radio if you just can't be without your baby, yeah

I got a question for ya (See, I already know the answer)
But still I wanna ask you, will you lie? (No)
Make me cry? (No)
Do somethin' behind my back and then try to cover it up?
Well, neither would I, baby
My love is on the up and up
(Yes) I'll be faithful
(Yes) I'm for real
(Yes) And with us you'll always know the deal

We've been too strong for too long
And I can't be without you, baby (Oh)
And I'll be waitin' up until you get home
'Cause I can't sleep without you, baby (Oh, oh)
If anybody who's ever loved you know just what I feel
Too hard to fake it, nothin' can replace it
Call the radio if you just can't be without your baby, yeah

See, this is real talk, I'ma always stay (No matter what)
Good or bad (Thick and thin)
Right or wrong (All day, every day, hey)
Now if you're down on love or don't believe this ain't for you
(No, this ain't for you)
And if you got it deep in your heart
And deep down you know that it's true
(Come on, come on, come on)
Well, let me see you put your hands up (Hands up)
Fellas, tell your lady she's the one
Fellas, tell your lady she's the one
Oh, put your hands up (Hands up)
Ladies, let him know he's got you locked
Look him right in his eyes and tell him

We've been too strong for too long
And I can't be without you, baby
Can't be without you, baby
I'll be waitin' up until you get home
'Cause I can't sleep without you, baby
Oh, if anybody who's ever loved you know just what I feel
Too hard to fake it, nothin' can replace it
Call the radio if you just can't be without your baby

I wanna be with you, gotta be with you, need to be with you
I wanna be with you, gotta be with you, need to be with you
I wanna be with you, gotta be with you, need to be with you
I wanna be with you, gotta be with you, need to be with you
I wanna be with you, gotta be with you, need to be with you

Mary J. Blige & U2 - One

 
Is it getting better
Or do you feel the same?
Will it make it easier on you now
You got someone to blame?
You say one love, one life (One life)
It's one need in the night (In the night)
One love (One love), we get to share it (Oh)
Leaves you darlin', if you don't care for it
Mary

Did I disappoint you
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without?
Well, it's too late tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one but we're not the same
We get to carry each other, carry each other

One, one
One, one
One, one
One, one

Have you come here for forgiveness?
Have you come to raise the dead?
Have you come here to play Jesus
To the lepers in your head?
Well, did I ask too much, more than a lot?
You gave me nothing, now it's all I got
We're one but we're not the same
See, we hurt each other, then we do it again
You say love is a temple, love is a higher law
Love is a temple, love is a higher law
You ask for me to enter, but then you make me crawl
And I can't keep holding on to what you've got
'Cause all you got is hurt

One love, one blood
One life, you got to do what you should
One life with each other
Sisters and my brothers
One life but we're not the same
We get to carry each other, carry each other

One, one
One, one
One, one

One love, one love
