"We Belong Together"
I didn't mean it When I said I didn't love you so I
should have held on tight I never should've let you go I didn't know nothing I was stupid I was foolish I was
lying to myself I couldn't have fathomed that I would ever Be without your love Never imagined I'd be Sitting
here beside myself
'Cause I didn't know you 'Cause I didn't know me But I thought I knew everything I never
felt The feeling that I'm feeling Now that I don't Hear your voice Or have your touch and kiss your lips Cause
I don't have a choice Oh, what I wouldn't give To have you lying by my side Right here, 'cause baby
[Chorus:] When
you left I lost a part of me It's still so hard to believe Come back baby please, 'cause We belong together Who
else am I gonna lean on When times get rough Who's gonna talk to me on the phone Till the sun comes up Who's gonna
take your place There ain't nobody better Oh baby, baby We belong together
I can't sleep at night When
you are on my mind Bobby Womack's on the radio Singing to me 'If you think you're lonely now' Wait a minute This
is too deep, too deep I gotta change the station So I turn the dial Trying to catch a break And then I hear Babyface I
only think of you And it's breaking my heart I'm trying to keep it together But I'm falling apart I'm feeling
all out of my element I'm throwing things Crying Trying to figure out Where the hell I went wrong The pain
reflected in this song Ain't even half of what I'm feeling inside I need you Need you back in my life baby
[Chorus]
[Repeat
chorus] When you left I lost a part of me It's still so hard to believe Come back baby please, 'cause We
belong together Who am I gonna lean on When times get rough Who's gonna talk to me Till the sun comes up Who's
gonna take your place There ain't nobody better Oh baby, baby We belong together
"Shake It Off"
[Chorus] I gotta shake it off Cause the loving
ain't the same And you keep on playing games Like you know I'm here to stay I gotta shake it off Just like the
Calgon commercial I really gotta get up outta here And go somewhere I gotta shake it off Gotta make that move Find
somebody who Appreciates all the love I give Boy I gotta shake it off Gotta do what's best for me Baby and that
means I gotta shake it off
By the time you get this message It's gonna be too late So don't bother paging
me 'Cause I'll be on my way See, I grabbed all my diamonds and clothes Just ask your momma she knows You're gonna
miss me baby Hate to say I told you so Well at first I didn't know But now it's clear to me You would cheat with
all your freaks And lie compulsively So I packed up my Louis Vuitton Jumped in your ride and took off You'll never
ever find a girl Who loves you more than me
[Chorus] I gotta shake it off Cause the loving ain't the
same And you keep on playing games Like you know I'm here to stay I gotta shake it off Just like the Calgon commercial I
really gotta get up outta here And go somewhere I gotta shake it off Gotta make that move Find somebody who Appreciates
all the love I give Boy I gotta shake it off Gotta do what's best for me Baby and that means I gotta shake it
off
[Bridge] I gotta shake, shake, shake, shake, shake it Off...
I found out about a gang Of
your dirty little deeds With this one and that one By the pool, on the beach, in the streets Heard y'all was Hold
up my phone's breakin' up I'ma hang up and call the machine right back I gotta get this off of my mind You wasn't
worth my time So I'm leaving you behind Cause I need a real love in my life Save this recording because I'm never
coming back home Baby I'm gone Don't cha know
[Chorus] I gotta shake it off Cause the loving ain't
the same And you keep on playing games Like you know I'm here to stay I gotta shake it off Just like the Calgon
commercial I really gotta get up outta here And go somewhere I gotta shake it off Gotta make that move Find
somebody who Appreciated all the love I give Boy I gotta shake it off Gotta do what's best for me Baby and that
means I gotta shake it off
[Bridge]
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
"Mine Again"
I remember when you used to be mine Way back when I was
too naive to love you right But now if I only had the opportunity I would do anything Because my heart still believes
[Chorus] Maybe
you could be mine again Maybe we could make that dream for real Like way back then When love was yours and mine Maybe
we could bring it back to life
It's irrelevant to dwell on the past I'm accountable for what went bad And I mean
that But I keep on praying for another chance Just to have you back Cause I've grown And I know how to be your
everything
[Chorus] Maybe you could be mine again Maybe we could make that dream for real Like way
back then When love was yours and mine Maybe we could bring it back to life
No, no it ain't over yet I just
can't accept the possibility We were made for each other's arms I know you're my destiny We can't erase what was
meant to be Part of you and part of me If we try one more time Maybe somehow we'll survive
Maybe you could
be mine again Maybe we could make that dream for real Like way back then When love was yours and mine Boy maybe
we could bring it back Maybe we could bring it back Maybe we could bring it back to... Life Maybe you could be
mine
