Element Of Freedom (Intro) lyrics - alicia keys

And the day came
When the risk it took
To remain tight and closed in the bud
Was more painful
Than the risk it took bloom

This is the element of freedom

Love Is Blind lyrics - alicia keys

Well people don't see what I see
Even when them right there
Standing next to me
And all of my friends think I'm crazy for loving you
But they don't know
There's nothing else I can do

And it's too bad 'cause love is blind
(It's too bad It's too bad)
Oh oh oh
It's too bad 'cause love is blind
(It's too bad So Bad)
Oh oh oh oh oh
It's too bad 'cause love is blind
(It's too bad it don't matter Baby)
Eh eh eh
It's too bad 'cause love is blind
(It's too bad So Sad)
Oh oh oh oh oh

See people don't know what I know
They say I'm losing my mind
I know I'm losing control
Eh eh eh ehhh
All of my friends think I'm crazy but I don't care
I'm over the edge, no turning back
Belong to you I swear
Ay!

It's too bad 'cause love is blind
(It's too bad It's too bad)
Oh oh oh
It's too bad 'cause love is blind
(It's too bad So Bad)
Oh oh oh oh oh
It's too bad 'cause love is blind
(It's too bad it don't matter Baby)
Eh eh eh
It's too bad 'cause love is blind
(It's too bad So Sad)
Oh oh oh oh oh

Eeeehhh ehhhh
Oh oh uoh [x4]

And it's too bad 'cause love is blind
(It's too bad It's too bad)
Oh oh oh
It's too bad 'cause love is blind
(It's too bad So Bad)
Oh oh oh oh oh
It's too bad 'cause love is blind
(It's too bad it don't matter Baby)
Eh eh eh
It's too bad 'cause love is blind
(It's too bad So Sad)
Oh oh oh oh oh

It's too bad 'cause love is blind

Eeeehhh ehhhh
Oh oh uoh [x4]

Doesn't Mean Anything lyrics - alicia keys

Used to dream of being a millionaire without a care
But if I'm seeing my dreams and you aren't there
Cause it's over, that just won't be fair, darling
Rather be a poor woman living on the street, no food to eat
Cause I don't want no pie if I have to cry
Cause it's over when you say goodbye

All at once, I had it all
But it doesn't mean anything now that you're gone
From above, seems I had it all
But it doesn't mean anything since you're gone

Now I see myself through different eyes, it's no surprise
Being alone would make you realize
When it's over, all in love is fair
I should've been there, I should been there, I should've should've

All at once, I had it all
But it doesn't mean anything now that you're gone
From above, seems I had it all
But it doesn't mean anything since you're gone

I know I push you away
What can I do that will save our love?
Take these material things
They don't mean nothing
It's you that I want

All at once, I had it all
But it doesn't mean anything now that you're gone
From above, seems I had it all
But it doesn't mean anything since you're gone
(I should've been there, I should been there, I should've should've)

All at once, I had it all
But it doesn't mean anything now that you're gone
From above, seems I had it all
But it doesn't mean anything since you're gone

Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart lyrics - alicia keys

Even if you were a million miles away
I could still feel you in my bed
Need me, touch me, feel me
And even at the bottom of the sea
I could still hear inside my head
Tellin' me, touch me, feel me

And all the time you were tellin' me lies

So tonight, I'm gonna find a way to make it without you
Tonight I'm gonna find a way to make it without you
I'm gonna hold on to the times that we had tonight
I'm gonna find a way to make it without you

Have you ever tried sleeping with a broken heart?
Well, you could try sleeping in my bed

Lonely, own me nobody ever shut it down like you
You wore the crown
You made my body feel heaven bound
Why don't you hold me
Neeed me, I thought you told me
You'd never leave me

Looking in the sky I could see your face
And I know right where I fit in
Take me, make me, you know that I'll always be in love
With you
Right til the end OOh

So tonight, I'm gonna find a way to make it without you
Tonight I'm gonna find a way to make it without you
I'm gonna hold on to the times that we had tonight
I'm gonna find a way to make it without you

Anybody could've told you right from the start
It's bout to fall apart
So rather than hold onto a broken dream
I'll just hold on to love

And I could find a way to make it
Don't hold on too tight
I'll make it without you tonight

So tonight, I'm gonna find a way to make it without you
Tonight I'm gonna find a way to make it without you
I'm gonna hold onto the times we had tonight
I'm gonna find a way to make it without you

Wait Til You See My Smile lyrics - alicia keys

When the wind is blowing in your face
Sometimes in life you don't see straight
Pray to Him and He will show
When your head is in a certain place
Nobody around to make you safe
Stand strong and you will grow

[Chorus:]
Oh
Wait till you see my smile
Oh
Wait till they see your smile

Don't they love to see you down
Kick you while you are in the ground
Don't let emotions show
People always speculate
Don't let it get in your way
They say things they don't know

[Chorus]

So you're doing better now
Everybody comes around
But you don't really need 'em
'cause you're stronger and you're better
And you're ready for whatever

[Chorus x2]

That's How Strong My Love Is lyrics - alicia keys

Some people they call me crazy
For falling in love with you
They can take me and lock me away baby
'cause there's nothing those bars can do

I'll be the rising moon after setting sun
Just to let you know you'll always have someone
I'll be the clearest day when the rain is done
So you'll always know

Through the shake of an earthquake
I will never fall
That's how strong my love is
Like a ship through the storm
We can risk it all
That's how strong my love is

I used to feel kinda lonely
Cause the world it can be so fake
All that matters I'm telling you
Is you and me only
And the fortress from love we'd make

I'll be the water you need in the desert land
Just to let you know you'll always have my hand
I'll be the woman you need to be a better man
So you'll always know

Through the shake of an earthquake
I will never fall
That's how strong my love is
Like a ship through the storm
We can risk it all
That's how strong my love is

Oh, can't nothing break us down
Oh, 'cause we are heaven bound
Like the mountain standing tall...
Immovable; we're here to stay
Oh, can't nothing get in the way

Through the shake of an earthquake
I will never fall (I will never fall)
That's how strong my love is (that's how strong my love is)
Like a ship through the storm
We can risk it all (we can risk it all)
That's how strong my love is (that love is)

Through the deepest waters
I won't let you drown (I won't let you drown Ohh!)
That's how strong my love is (Oh that's how strong my love, my love, my love)
Cause we're the moon in the sky
That will never come down (never come down)
That's how strong my love is (Oh that's how strong my love is)
That's how strong my love is
That's how strong my love is

Un-Thinkable (I'm Ready) lyrics - alicia keys

[Verse 1:]
Moment of honesty
Someone's gotta take the lead tonight
Whose it gonna be?
I'm gonna sit right here
And tell you all that comes to me
If you have something to say
You should say it right now
([Drake:] You should say it right now)

You ready?

[Bridge:]
You give me a feeling that I never felt before
And I deserve it, I think I deserve it
([Drake:] I deserve it, I think it deserve it..Let it go)
It's becoming something that's impossible to ignore
And I can't take it
([Drake:] I can't take it)

[Chorus - Alicia & Drake:]
I was wondering maybe
Could I make you my baby
If we do the unthinkable would it make us look crazy
If you ask me I'm ready
([Echo:] I'm ready, I'm ready)
If you ask me I'm ready
([Echo:] I'm ready, I'm ready)

[Verse 2:]
I know you once said to me
"This is exactly how it should feel when it's meant to be"
Time is only wasting so why wait for eventually?
If we gon' do something 'bout it
We should do it right now
([Drake:] We should do it right now)

Bay, uh

[Bridge:]
You give me a feeling that I never felt before
And I deserve it, I know I deserve it
([Drake:] I deserve it, I know I deserve it. Let it go)
Its becoming something that's impossible to ignore
It's what we make it
([Drake:] It's what we make it)

[Chorus - Alicia & Drake:]
I was wondering maybe
Could I make you my baby
If we do the unthinkable would it make us look crazy
Or would it be so beautiful either way I'm sayin'
If you ask me I'm ready
([Echo:] I'm ready I'm ready)
If you ask me I'm ready
([Echo:] I'm ready)

Yeah, sing...

[Hook:]
Why give up before we try
Feel the lows before the highs
Clip our wings before we fly away
I can't say I came prepared
I'm suspended in the air
Won't you come be in the sky with me

[Chorus - Alicia & Drake:]
I was wondering maybe
Could I make you my baby
If we do the unthinkable would it make us look crazy
Or would it be so beautiful either way I'm sayin'
If you ask me I'm ready
([Echo:] I'm ready, I'm ready)
If you ask me I'm ready
([Echo:] I'm ready, I'm ready)

Love Is My Disease lyrics - alicia keys

When you're gone it feels like,
My whole world's gone with you
I thought love would be my cure
But now it's my disease
I try to act mature
But I'm a baby when you leave
How can I ever get used to being without you?

(yeah)

Baby, baby, baby, baby
Am I addicted
When I need you here all the time?
And I'm not sure if this is healthy
Is it a sickness?
'cuz I feel like I'm losing my mind

And I know that there's no medicine
Nothing I can take, no remedy
Baby please stay

(ohohoohh)
When you're gone it feels like,
My whole world's gone with you
I thought love would be my cure
But now it's my disease (my disease)
I try to act mature
But I'm a baby when you leave
How can I ever get used to being without you?

Oh oh oh baby, baby, baby
I get a fever
Just the thought of you leaving my side
Ohohhhh
And I'm not the same 'til you're back holding me
That's all I need

(oh yeah)
When you're gone it feels like (when you're gone baby)
My whole worlds gone with you (gone with you)
I thought love would be my cure
But now its my disease (my disease)
I try to act mature
But I'm a baby when you leave
How can I ever get used to being without you

Woah woah
Here's what I'm going through when your gone
Some serious symptoms of withdrawal
(ohohoh)
So sick of turning in my bed
Waking up drenched in a cold sweat
(ohohoh)
Lying here lonely for you
What am I supposed to do
When I'm stuck and I cant get enough of your lovvvee

Ohohoh woahhh Baby

When you're gone it feels like (when your gone baby)
My whole world's gone with you (gone with you)
I thought love would be my cure
But now it's my disease (my disease)
I try to act mature
But I'm a baby when you leave
How can I ever get used to being without you?

Like The Sea lyrics - alicia keys

[Chorus:]
Love is like the sea
Leaves you on your knees
Then it pulls you in
Then it takes you, takes you
Over, over
Love is like the sea
Leaves you on your knees
First you're floating high
Then takes you takes you
Under under

Well it's cold
Cold under water
In the night time
But I dove
Dove to the bottom
To see what I'd find

That's when I saw a light
A glowing paradise
Thought I'd stay a while
It's been calling me underwater, child
Everything that I ever dreamed

Taking my breath away
Currents got hold of me
Sweeping me away
Wish that I could stay
Takes me to the top
It's the cycle that never stops

Love is like the sea
Leaves you on your knees
Then it pulls you in
Then it takes you, takes you
Over, over
Love is like the sea
Leaves you on your knees
First you're floating high
Then takes you takes you
Under under

(takes you takes you over)
(takes you takes you under)
(takes you takes you over)
Over!
(takes you takes you under)

Say:

I've been told
Told you only find it once in a lifetime
So you better hold
Hold on stronger then ever
Like it's the last time

So when you see the light
Like a ship in the night
You have found the place
You been looking for
Like a distant shore
Don't you ever look back again

Here's something you should know (know)
The sea is still in control ([spoken:] that's right)
Cherish everyday
Cause you never know
It can take away
The very thing that you love the most (love the most)

Love is like the sea
Leaves you on your knees
Then it pulls you in
Then it takes you, takes you (takes you, takes you over)
Over, over
Love is like the sea
Leaves you on your knees (leaves you on your knees)
First you're floating high
Then takes you takes you (takes you, takes you under)
Under under

(takes you takes you over) oh
(takes you takes you under)
(takes you takes you over) so far
(takes you takes you under)
Listen, love is like the sea yeah

(takes you takes you over)
(takes you takes you under) can you feel the pull?
(takes you takes you over) it's calling you
(takes you takes you under)

Love is like the sea
Leaves you on your knees
Then it pulls you in
(if you ever felt this way before)
Then it takes you, takes you
Over, (then you know)
Over
Love is like the sea
Leaves you on your knees
First you're floating high
(oh get down on your knees)
Then it takes you takes you
Under under
(take me away)

This Bed lyrics - alicia keys

Here I am
And I been thinking about you lately
Hold my hand
'Cause I been missing you like crazy

[Bridge]
Don't wanna go through life,
Every single night
Wishing we could do it, oh (Do it Right)
Do it Right
Come and hold me tight, we don't need to fight
Rather spend my life with you, every night
Cause baby..

[Chorus]
This bed
Is too lonely without you (Baby)
Don't wanna hold my pillow, I wanna hold you
Please be beside me
These king size sheets
Need more than just a queen
In between 'em
This bed
Is too lonely without you

So why don't we
Go inside where we can be together?
You mean more than anything
Stay with me
Wanna be with you forever

[Bridge]
Don't wanna go through life,
Every single night
Wishing we could do it, oh (Do it Right)
Do it Right
Come and hold me tight, we don't need to fight
Rather spend my life with you, every night
Ooh baby..

[Chorus]
This bed
Is too lonely without you (Baby, baby bay)
Don't wanna hold my pillow, I wanna hold you

Please be beside me
These king size sheets
Need more than just a queen
In between 'em (Yeah)
This bed
Is too lonely without you (Too lonely)

You know when it starts to get late
And it's time to go to sleep, I
I don't know what to do
Cause I don't wanna hold my pillow
I wanna hold you

[Bridge]
Don't wanna go through life,
Every single night
Wishing we could do it, oh (Do it Right)
Do me Right
Come and hold me tight, we don't need to fight
Rather spend my life with you, every night
Oh baby..

This bed
Is too lonely without you (Baby..baby)

Please be beside me
These king size sheets
Need more than just a queen
In between 'em (Yeah)
This bed
Is too lonely without you (Too lonely)

Distance And Time lyrics - alicia keys

You are always on my mind
All I do is count the days
Where are you now?

I know I never let you down
I will never go away

I really wish that you'd stay but what can we do
All the days that you've been gone I dreamed about you
And I anticipate the day that you will come home, home, home

No matter how far you are
No matter how long it takes him
Through distance and time
I'll be waiting

And if you have to walk a million miles
I'll wait a million days to see you smile
Distance and time, I'll be waiting

Distance and time, I'll be waiting
Will you take a train, to meet me where I am
Are you on your way?
I will never do anything to hurt you
I'll never live without you

I really wish that you would stay but what can we do
All the days that you've been gone I dreamed about you
And I anticipate the day that you will come home, home, home

No matter how far you are
No matter how long it takes him
Distance and time,I'll be waiting
And if you have to walk a million miles
I'll wait a million days to see you smile
Distance and time
I'll be waiting

No matter how far you are
No matter how long it takes him
Distance and time, I'll be waiting
And you can walk a million miles
I'll wait a million days to see you smile
Through distance and time, I'll be waiting

Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh

I'll be waiting
I'll be waiting
Through distance and time
I'll be waiting

You are always on my mind
All I do is count the days
Where are you now?

How It Feels To Fly lyrics - alicia keys

Have you ever felt so strong
That it made you feel weak
Long days
Long nights
And you just can't sleep

Have you ever been so sure
That it gave you cold feet
That felt all bare
You can feel your heart beat

Well I never knew this feeling never
Now I hope it stays and last forever
I am riding high
I don't want to come down
Hope my wings don't fail me now
And If I can touch the sky
I'd risk to fall just to know how it feels to fly

(yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Say yeah yeah yeah yeah
(yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Say yeah yeah yeah yeah
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Yeah

Have you ever felt so lost
But didn't know until you were found
Looking everywhere
What you finally see know

In the room full of people
Feels like no one's around
Got your head in the clouds
And your feet are off the ground

Say I never knew this feeling, never
Now I hope it stays and last forever
I am ridin high
I don't want to come down
Hope my wings don't fail me now
And If I can touch the sky
I'd risk to fall just to know how it feels to fly

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Say yeah yeah yeah yeah
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Say yeah yeah yeah yeah
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
We get to go

(Higher)
Higher
Higher)
Higher
Higher

[x2]
I am ridin high
I don't want to come down
Hope my wings don't fail me now
And If I can touch the sky
I'd risk to fall just to know how it feels to fly

(Yeah) yeah (yeah) yeah (yeah) yeah (yeah) yeah (yeah) yeah [x3]

Empire State Of Mind (Part II) Broken Down lyrics - alicia keys

Ooooh, New York!
Ooooh, New York!

Grew up in a town that is famous as a place of movie scenes
Noise is always loud, there are sirens all around and the streets are mean
If I can make it here, I can make it anywhere, that's what they say
Seeing my face in lights or my name in marquees found down on Broadway

Even if it ain't all it seems, I got a pocketful of dreams
Baby I'm from New York!
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
There's nothing you can't do
Now you're in New York!
These streets will make you feel brand new
Big lights will inspire you
Hear it for New York, New York, New Yooork!

On the avenue, there ain't never a curfew, ladies work so hard
Such a melting pot, on the corner selling rock, preachers pray to God
Hail a gypsy cab, takes me down from Harlem to the Brooklyn Bridge
Some will sleep tonight with a hunger for more than an empty fridge

I'ma make it by any means, I got a pocketful of dreams
Baby I'm from New York!
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
There's nothing you can't do
Now you're in New York!
These streets will make you feel brand new
Big lights will inspire you
Hear it for New York, New York, New Yooork!

One hand in the air for the big city
Street lights, big dreams, all looking pretty
No place in the world that can compare
Put your lighters in the air, everybody say
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

In New York!
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
There's nothing you can't do
Now you're in New York!
These streets will make you feel brand new
Big lights will inspire you
Let's hear it for New York, New York, New Yooork!

Through It All lyrics - alicia keys

In the morning when you wake
Might not wanna face today and all your heartache
Thinking how much can you take
Please don't ever loose the faith and don't fall under

In a world that seems to get colder & colder
Don't you worry cuz
My love will only get stronger & stronger

[Chorus]
Cuz I, I, I, I, I'm gonna love you gonna hold ya through it all
I, I, I, I'm gonna love you gonna never let you fall
Through it all
Through it all

Don't think about the past, don't worry bout the future
Just live in the moment
Long as there's another day there will be another way
A chance to make it through

In a world that seems to get colder & colder
Don't you worry cuz
My love will only get stronger & stronger

[Chorus]
Cuz I, I, I, I, I'm gonna love you gonna hold ya through it all
I, I, I, I'm gonna love you gonna never let you fall
Through it all

When you're down and out
Losing dignity
Don't let go of me (hold on)
Surely this is a brighter day right in front of me (hold on)
If you really looked inside
You would finally realize
You don't have to cry (no more)
All you have to do is see
That you can believe in me
And I will never leave

Cuz I, I, I, I, I'm gonna love you gonna hold ya through it all
I, I, I, I'm gonna love you gonna never let you fall
Through it all

Pray For Forgiveness lyrics - alicia keys

Beautiful garden, where have you gone?
My self delusions are leaving me in the storm
Taking for granted, all the goodness that I've found
Somewhere I lost all, the control came crashing down.

And I pray for forgiveness
Look for the answers
Cause its hard
For me to pretend
Look to my mother
Call to the captain
Can't you see
This state that I'm in
No one would notice
Nobody noticed
Cause it's me where it began

Beautiful morning, please don't wake me from my sleep
Cause I need some comfort, to regain my sanity
I don't want to feel this crazy,
I don't want to feel this guarded
Shattered in a million pieces
I'm so broken hearted
No where left to run
No where left to go
So I hope

I pray for forgiveness
Look for the answers
Cause its hard for me to pretend
Look to my mother
Call to the captain
Cant you see
This state that I'm in?
And no one would notice
Nobody noticed
That it's me, where it began
And I pray for forgiveness within

I swear that everyday I feel like my mind is haunting me
I think of every little stupid mistake that has been made
This time I don't have the strength to gather myself
I'm falling to pieces

And I pray for forgiveness
Look for the answer
Cause its hard for me to pretend
Look to my mother
Call to the captain
Cant you see
This state that I'm in
Pray for forgiveness
Looking for justice
Searching for answers
Call to my mother
Pray for forgiveness
Breaking the silence

Nobody knows it, nobody noticed
That it's me
Where it began

Stolen Moments lyrics - alicia keys

Remembering the days when our love began
Thinkin' of a million ways to escape and be with you
But reality wasn't just you and I
It was long drawn out days and lonely nights

Dreamin' 'bout you
I keep dreamin' bout you
When I'm dreamin' 'bout when you would say

Let me take you to another place
When nothing ever seems to matter
It's just you and me
We can take flight like a thief in the night
Stolen moments with you, ooh

But destiny didn't have such a simple plan
I was just a girl and you a young man
How could age define something so divine
Can this even be real or just exist in my mind

Dreamin' 'bout you
I keep dreamin' bout you
When I'm dreamin' 'bout when you would say

Let me take you to another place
When nothing ever seems to matter
It's just you and me
We can take flight like a thief in the night
Stolen moments with you, ooh

Dreamin' 'bout you
I keep dreamin' 'bout you
When I'm dreamin' and praying for the day

When no one and nothing else takes up our time
Finally you're only mine

Each and everyday I'd walk with you right by my side
But instead we have to hide, sneak around and lie
Just to spend time alone
If lovin' is a crime, I'd rather do the time
And leave the world behind

Let me take you to another place
When nothing ever seems to matter
It's just you and me
We can take flight like a thief in the night
Stolen moments with you, ooh

Let's get away, let's get away, oh
We can get away, we can get away, oh
Let's get away, let's get away, oh, oh
We can get away, we can get away, oh

Heaven's Door lyrics - alicia keys

Came across a picture of us today
Reminded me of how we used to play
And all of my kiss blew in the wind
Felt like those days would never end

Now the hardest thing to learn
You were never really gone away
I'll see you again
I'll see you again some day

When I climb the stairs
And I meet you there
'Cus love don't go nowhere
And you will see me
March up each step
Till I reach
Heaven's door

Can't wait to see your face
Save me a place
Your love can't be replaced
And you will see me
March up each step
Till I reach
Heaven's door
Heaven's door

Feel your warm hands against my face
Show me how you love me almost every day
Never to tired to fix up a meal
Never to tired just to make me feel better
These memories will live with me forever

Now the hardest thing to learn
You were never really gone away
I'll see you again
I'll see you again some day

When I climb the stairs
And I meet you there
'Cus love don't go nowhere
And you will see me
March up each step
Till I reach
Heaven's door

Can't wait to see your face
Save me a place
Your love will never be replaced
And you will see me
March up each step
Till I reach
Heaven's door

Say woah ooh
Woah ooh
Everybody say woah ooh
Woah ooh
Heaven's door

Say woah ooh
Woah ooh
Everybody say woah ooh
Woah ooh
Heaven's door

Lover Man lyrics - alicia keys

First scene opened with the
Vision of a woman in a chair
Up in a bedroom
What she doing there
She is thinkin of a man
And the man just could be you
Write him in a script on a
Business trip out of town far
But he wishes he was near
Does she really want him gotta
Have him burning desire all she
Wanna say is listen my dear...

Gotta tell ya,
I can't wait to see you, see, I need my lover man
Don't you worry about it baby I don't need no other man
We could be the dream that we always dreamed darling
Let's turn up the heat until the water boils over
I can't wait to see you, see, I need my lover man

Second scene it opens with
A woman at the desk of a
Job looking at a timepiece
(Oh yeah)
Cause there is a fight coming
In the night carrying the man
That she's dying to see
(Oh yeah)
He's gettin attacked in the
Second act by a lady
That's been missin him bad
She's all in the scene gotta
Have him really need him he's
The kind of lover she never had

Gotta tell him,
I can't wait to see you, see, I need my lover man
Don't you worry about it baby I don't need no other man
We could be the dream that we always dreamed darling
Let's turn up the heat until the water boils over
I can't wait to see you, see, I need my lover man

But nothing worth the wait ever is
And all our dreams can be ours

Hahaha

Go Ahead lyrics - alicia keys

Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh [4x]

[Verse 1]
Broken promises
My heart you stole
Lies you told
Got the best of me
Digging in my heart of gold
Used to look at you
And see the possibilities
I see you for who you are
Boy you've disappointed me

[Hook]
I thought you gave me love
Was never near enough
Soon enough time reveals
The weight of what is real
Know all I need to know
But see you got to go
What have you've given me?
But lies lies

[Chorus]
Go head go on and get up out of here
Go head baby
You knew you was wrong
You knew all along
Must be crazy
If you think I'm gone fall for this anymore
Everybody say no no no no no
Everybody say no no no no no

[Verse 2]
Used to believe in every word you said
Clouds my head
Leaving me here to drown
Hopes and dreams left for dead
You point your finger
Trying to justify your mistakes
A change is goin to be made
So you best be on your way

[Hook]

[Chorus]

No need to apologize
Don't try to make it right
I know
I should known better
When you took hold
I was sold
Using fear to control
Now it unfolds
Let me tell you right now
What I'm gonna do
made up my mind
It's time and I'm through with you
Nothing you can say or can do
Can make me change me mind

[Chorus]

Superwoman lyrics - alicia keys

Everywhere I'm turning
Nothing seems complete
I stand up and I'm searching
For the better part of me
I hang my head from sorrow
state of humanity
I wear it on my shoulders
Gotta find the strength in me

Cause I am a Superwoman
Yes I am
Yes she is
Even when I'm a mess
I still put on a vest
With an S on my chest
Oh yes
I'm a Superwoman

For all the mothers fighting
For better days to come
And all my women, all my women sitting here trying
To come home before the sun
And all my sisters
Coming together
Say yes I will
Yes I can

Cause I am a Superwoman
Yes I am
Yes she is
Even when I'm a mess
I still put on a vest
With an S on my chest
Oh yes
I'm a Superwoman

When I'm breaking down
And I can't be found
And I start to get weak
Cause no one knows
Me underneath these clothes
But I can fly
We can fly, Oh

Cause I am a Superwoman
Yes I am
Yes she is
Even when I'm a mess
I still put on a vest
With an S on my chest
Oh yes
I'm a Superwoman

No One lyrics - alicia keys

I just want you close
Where you can stay forever
You can be sure
That it will only get better

You and me together
Through the days and nights
I don't worry 'cause
Everything's going to be alright
People keep talking they can say what they like
But all i know is everything's going to be alright

No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I'm feeling
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I feel for you, you, you
Can get in the way of what I feel for you

When the rain is pouring down
And my heart is hurting
You will always be around
This I know for certain

You and me together
Through the days and nights
I don't worry 'cause
Everything's going to be alright
People keep talking they can say what they like
But all i know is everything's going to be alright

No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I'm feeling
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I feel for you, you, you
Can get in the way of what I feel

I know some people search the world
To find something like what we have
I know people will try, try to divide something so real
So till the end of time I'm telling you there ain't no one

No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I'm feeling
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I feel for you, you, you
Can get in the way of what I feel for you

oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Like You'll Never See Me Again lyrics - alicia keys

If I had no more time
No more time left to be here
Would you cherish what we had?
Was it everything that you were looking for?
If I couldn't feel your touch
And no longer were you with me
I'd be wishing you were here
To be everything that I'd be looking for
I don't wanna forget the present is a gift
And I don't wanna take for granted the time you may have here with me
'Cause Lord only knows another day is not really guaranteed

So every time you hold me
Hold me like this is the last time
Every time you kiss me
Kiss me like you'll never see me again
Every time you touch me
Touch me like this is the last time
Promise that you'll love me
Love me like you'll never see me again

Oh Oh Oh

How many really know what love is?
Millions never will
Do you know until you lose it
That it's everything that we are looking for
When I wake up in the morning
You're beside me
I'm so thankful that I found
Everything that I been looking for

I don't wanna forget the present is a gift
And I don't wanna take for granted the time you may have here with me
'Cause Lord only knows another day is not really guaranteed

So everytime you hold me
Hold me like this is the last time
Every time you kiss me
Kiss me like you'll never see me again
(can you do that for me baby)
Every time you touch me
(see we don't really know)
Touch me like this is the last time
(see everyday we never know)
Promise that you'll love me
(I want you to promise me)
Love me like you'll never see me again
(like you'll never see me again)

Oh oh oh oh oh

Lesson Learned (feat. John Mayer) lyrics - alicia keys

He broke my heart
And now it's raining
Just to rub it in
I'm at your door
I feel so crazy about it
You'll say I told you so
You saw it long ago
You knew he had to go
I finally came 'round
I'm back on solid ground
Can't let it get me down

It's alright
It's alright
It's alright

Yes I was burned but I called it a lesson learned
Mistake overturned
So I call it a lesson learned
My soul has returned
So I call it a lesson learned
Another lesson learned

Sometimes
Some lies
Can take a minute
To fully realize
His tears
Your eyes
Thirty seconds to apologize
You give it one more chance
Just like the time before
But he already know you'd give a hundred more
Until that night in bed
You wake up in a sweat
You're racing to the door
Can't take it anymore

I was burned but I called it a lesson learned
Mistake overturned
So I call it a lesson learned
My soul has returned
So I call it a lesson learned
Another lesson learned

Life perfect
Ain't perfect
If you don't know what the struggle's for
Falling down ain't falling down
If you don't cry when you hit the floor
It's called the past cause I'm getting past
And I ain't nothing like I was before
You ought to see me now

Yes I was burned but I called it a lesson learned
Mistake overturned
So I call it a lesson learned
My soul has returned
So I call it a lesson learned
Another lesson learned

Yes I was burned but I called it a lesson learned
Mistake overturned
So I call it a lesson learned
My soul has returned
So I call it a lesson learned
Another lesson learned

Wreckless Love lyrics - alicia keys

Let's go back in time
When seeing your ID on mine
Made me crazy
Ooh baby I'm saying

Let's go back there
Let's take it there
I'm talking bout
Back in time
When you wanted to know my every move
Tired to keep it smooth
Keepin' up with me
You drove me crazy ohh baby

Let's go back there
Let's take it there

When you
Didn't know me
Didn't need me
I wanted to touch me
Couldn't leave me
I couldn't know how
Far it would go
I couldn't know if
This was for sure
We just could not
We just could not get enough of it baby , let's go

[Chorus]
Have that wreckles love
That crazy love
That off the wall won't stop ti'l I get enough kind of love
I need that love
So baby, let's go

Have that wreckless love
That crazy love
That I don't really care
We can have it anywhere
Kind of love
That wreckless love

Let's go back in time
When our kiss was brand new
An adventure not perfected
A little hesitant

Let's go back there
Let's take it there

Take it back in time
When forever was a minute, and eternity was a second
I'm stressing that we have to go back there
Let's take it there.

When you
Didn't know me
Didn't need me
I wanted to touch me
Couldn't leave me
I couldn't know how
Far it would go
I couldn't know if
This was for sure
We just could not
We just could not get enough of it baby , let's go

[Chorus]
Have that wreckles love
That crazy love
That off the wall won't stop ti'l I get enough kind of love
I need that love
So baby, let's go

Have that wreckless love
That crazy love
That I don't really care
We can have it anywhere
Kind of love
That wreckless love

Ooh baby, let's go

[Chorus]
Have that wreckles love
That crazy love
That off the wall won't stop ti'l I get enough kind of love
I need that love
So baby, let's go

Have that wreckless love
That crazy love
That I don't really care
We can have it anywhere
Kind of love
That wreckless love

The Thing About Love lyrics - alicia keys

Love
Love will come find you
Just to remind you
Of who you are

Oh love
It will forsake you
Threaten to break you
Take what you got

Everybody laughs
Everybody cries
Sure it could hurt you baby
But give it a little try
See that's the thing about love

Friends
Sometimes will blind you
Sneak up behind you
You cant give enough

Then life
It will embrace you
Totally amaze you
So you don't give up

Everybody laughs
Everybody cries
Sure it could hurt you baby

But give it a little try
See that's the thing about love

Don't tell me that I'm not the only that's going through it all
Oh sometimes I feel like I'm the only that's going through it all
But its time
Oh its time
For me to shine
Hey
Its my time
Oh its time
For me to shine

Its my time
Said its my time
For me to shine
Its my time
Its bout time
For me to shine

Everybody laughs
Everybody cries
Sure it could hurt u baby
But give it a little try
That's the thing about love
That's the thing about love
That's the thing about
That's the thing about love

Teenage Love Affair lyrics - alicia keys

Can't wait to get home
Baby dial your number
Can you pick up the phone
'cause I wanna holla?
Daydreaming about you all day
In school can't concentrate
Want have your voice in my ear
'Til ma comes and says it's too late

[Chorus:]
'cause the lights are on outside
Wish there was somewhere to hide
'cause I just don't want to say goodbye
'cause you are my baby baby
Nothing really matters
I don't really care
What nobody tell me
I'm gonna be here
It's a matter of extreme importance
My first teenage love affair

Another secret meeting
On the 5th floor stair case
I'm gonna give you this letter
Of all the things I can't say
Want you to be my first, my last, my ending and beginning
I wrote your name in my book
You last name my first
I'm your Mrs.

[Chorus]

Hey boy
You know I really like being with you right?
Just hanging out with you is fun

So maybe we can go to first base
Because I feel you
Second base
Want you to feel me too
Third base
Better pump the breaks
Well baby slow down
I gotta go home now

[Chorus]

My baby baby
Nothing really matters
I don't really care
What nobody tell me
I'm gonna be here
It's a matter of extreme importance
My first teenage love affair

Where Do We Go From Here lyrics - alicia keys

[Verse 1]
We're at the crossroads my dear
Where do we go from here
Maybe you wont go maybe you'll stay
I know I'm going to miss you either way
Its such a lonely road

[Chorus]
Where do we go from here (We go) (All I Can Do Is)
Follow the tracks of my tears (Follow The Tracks) (Tears)

[Verse 2]
When I cry your name
Am I calling in vain?
Am I waitin' only to drown in pain?
Don't you do it no don't you leave me this way
I don't know if I could lift my head and face another day
It's such a lonely road

[Chorus]
Where do we go from here (We go) (All I Can Do Is)
Follow the tracks of my tears (Follow The Tracks) (Tears)

[Bridge]
Usually not the kind of girl who's lost and looking for direction
Who could this be staring at me
When I'm looking in the mirror trying find the resolution
Were to far gone to find our way home

Where do we go from here (We go) (All I Can Do Is)
Follow the tracks of my tears (Follow The Tracks of my tears)

Where do we go from here (Maybe you will go maybe you'll stay) (All I Can Do Is)
Follow the tracks of my tears (Follow) (Either Way)

[x2]
Oh oh oh

Prelude To A Kiss lyrics - alicia keys

[Little Intro played by Alicia]
Mhmmmm... yeah yea yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Mhmhmh [x3]

Sometimes I feel..... like I don't belong anywhere.
And it's gonna take.... so long for me to get to somewhere.........

Sometimes I feel so heavy hearted.., but I can't explain cuz I'm so guarded.
But that's a lonely road to travel, and a heavy load to... bear.

And it's a long, long way to heaven but I gotta get there.....
Can you send an angel.....?
Can you send me an angel...... to guide me.

Tell You Something (Nana's Reprise) lyrics - alicia keys

Get so caught up everyday
Tryna keep it all together
While the time it slips away
You see I know nothing last forever

Imagine there was no tomorrow
Imagine that I couldn't see your face
There would be no limit to my sorrow
So all I can say

[Chorus:]
I wanna tell you something, give you something
Show you in so many ways
'cause it would all mean nothing if I don't say something before it all goes away
Don't wanna wait to bring you flowers, waste another hour let alone another day
I'm gonna tell you something, show you something, won't wait till it's too late

[2x] (I can't wait, I can't wait, I won't wait, I don't wanna wait)

Just a simple conversation
Just a moment is all it takes
I wanna be there just to listen
(I wanna be here)
And I don't wanna hesitate

Imagine there was no tomorrow
Imagine that I couldn't see your face
There would be no limit to my sorrow
'cause there's nothing that could fill that space
I don't wanna put it off for too long
I didn't say all that I had to say
I wanna take my time and right the wrong before we get to that place

[Chorus]

Just lean on my shoulder,
It's not over till it's over
Don't worry about it cause
I'm gonna make sure our bond gets stronger
I don't wanna wait till the storm and something wrong and now you're gone and I can't find you

[Chorus x2]

[x4] I can't wait, I can't wait, I won't wait, I don't wanna wait

Sure Looks Good To Me lyrics - alicia keys

Life is cheap, bittersweet
But it taste good to me

Take my turn, crash and burn
That's how it's supposed to be

So don’t rain on my parade
Life’s too short to waste one day

I’m gonna risk it all, the freedom to fall
Yes it sure looks good to me

Time passed by and leaves you behind
Take it naturslly

Heaven knows (OH) There’s so much more
More than what we see

So don’t rain on my parade
Life’s too short to waste one day

I’m gonna risk it all, the freedom to fall
Yes it sure looks good to me

(HEY) Sure looks good to me

Ooh, ooh, oooo, ooohh
Yea, yea, yeaaaa

Ooh, ooh, oooo, ooohh
Yea, yea, yeaaaa

Deep in my mind Im secure we can buy
I wanna see the light before I die or I lie in an empty space,

The darkness comes and I’ve been telling my soul
And me and myself we turn around, we’re getting old,

But the lightning crashing, foolish emotions
From the bruises and the beauty in this moment that we’re feeling,

And I feel like I’m seeing the world inside of me
But I can tell you that I know, it's getting easier to breathe,

There’s a cold in the morning, endless equation
Of who’ve we've become, it’s a complex situation

So live, love, life give love
Live, love, life, give love
Live, love, life, give love
It's who are we anyway

So don’t rain on my parade
Life’s too short to waste one day

I’m gonna risk it all, the freedom to fall
Yes it sure looks good to me

(HEY) It sure looks good to me
(I’m telling you) Sure looks good to me

(YEA) Sure looks good to meeee

Meee, yeaaa
Looks good to me, whoo, yea, yea, yeaaa

Waiting For Your Love lyrics - alicia keys

There's no other way
That I would want someone to hold me, show me like you
Falling in a daze
So many ways, I 'm in amazement
Thinking about you No one took the time
To hold my mind, and be the kind
That I could talk to
This is the type of day
That I must say, I've been looking forward to

Look at me shedding no tears
No worries followed by fear
So good that soon you'll be here
They just don't know How good it feels

Feels so good to not be searching
Searching just to find that someone
Feels so good to not be searching
Knowing that I found that right one

I'm waiting for your love
Waiting for your love
I'm waiting for your love
Waiting for your love

Talking on the phone
When I'm alone, I'm in the zone
And tempted to touch you
Nothing ever fades
The way you take time for me
It makes me want you
Call it what you want
It may be wrong, but baby I'm your fool
I can verify, that you're my type
The things we try that others just wont do

Look at me shedding no tears
No worries followed by fear
So good that soon you'll be here
They just don't know How good it feels

Feels so good to not be searching
Searching just to find that someone
Feels so good to not be searching
Knowing that I found that right one

I'm waiting for your love
Waiting for your love
I'm waiting for your love
Waiting for your love

Hurt So Bad lyrics - alicia keys

I know you
Don't know what
I'm going through
Standing here
Looking at you

Let me tell ya that it
Hurts so bad
It makes me feel so sad
Oh it hurts so bad
To see you again
Like needles and pins

People say
You're making out okay
He's in love
Don't get in there way

Let me tell ya that it
Hurts so bad
It makes me feel so sad
You're gonna hurt so bad
If you walk away

Why can't you stay
And let me
Make it up to you
I'll do anything
You want me to

You loved me before
Come love again
I can't let you go
Back to her
Please don't go
Please don't goooooo

It makes me feel so sad
It's gonna hurt so bad
If you walk away

Please don't go
Please don't goooooo
Ohhh ohhh

Don't make it hurt so bad
It's gonna hurt so bad
To see you again

Another Way To Die (feat. Jack White) lyrics - alicia keys

I know the player
With the slick
Trigger finger
For Her Majesty
Another one
With the
Golden tone voice
And then your fantasy
Another bill
From a killer
Turned a thrill
Into a tragedy

[Chorus]
A door left open
A woman walking by
A drop in the water
A look in the eye
A phone on the table
A man on your side
Someone that you think
That you can trust is just
Another way to die

Another tricky little gun
Giving solace to the one
That will never see
The sunshine
Another inch of your life
Sacrificed
For your brother
In the nick of time
Another dirty money,
Heaven sent honey
Turning on a dime

[Chorus]
A door left open
A woman walking by
A drop in the water
A look in the eye
A phone on the table
A man on your side
Someone that you think
That you can
Trust is just
Another way to die

Wo-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Another girl
With her finger
On the world singing
do what you want here
Another gun thrown down
And surrendered
Took away your fear
Hey
Another man
That stands right
Behind you
Looking in the mirror

[Chorus]
Oh, a door left open
A woman walking by
A drop in the water
A look in the eye
A phone on the table
A man on your side
Oh,
Someone that you think
That you can trust
Is just another way to die

Doncha Know (Sky Is Blue) lyrics - alicia keys

If you think the sky is falling
Coming undone
All the pieces crumble
You're on the run
All of the room you've taken
All the rules you're breaking
Don't you know the silent truth is
It comes back to you

Doncha know the sky is blue
Can't you see the sun in breaking through
Have a little faith in you
Doncha know the sky is blue

Everytime you walk out that door
Cursing the sky
Feeling like you've been cheated
Ripped from inside

Doncha know the sky is blue
Cant you see the sun in breaking through
Have a little faith in you
Doncha know the sky is blue

Come on
Mmm
Mmm, yea.

Na nanana na
Na na nananana na nanana

Doncha know the sky is blue
Can't you see the sun in breaking through
Have a little faith in you
Doncha know the sky is blue

Doncha know the sky is blue
Hey!
Doncha know the sky is blue
Come on!
The sky is blue
Say it!
The sky,
Sky
I'm telling you
The sky is blue
Baby
Whoo-hoo!
Doncha know the sky
Sky
Sky
Sky-haa!
Hey!
Hey!

Na nanana na
Na na nananana na nanana

Karma lyrics - alicia keys

Weren't you the one who said that you don't want me anymore
And how you need your space and give the keys back to your door
And how I cried and tried and tried to make you stay with me
And still you said your love was gone and that I had to leave
Now you're Talking bout a family
Now you're saying I complete your dreams
Oh
Now you're sayin I'm your everything
You're confusing me
What you saying to me, don't play wit me, don't play wit me
Cause....

[Chorus:]
What goes around comes around
What goes up must come down
Now who's cryin', desirin' to come back to me
What goes around comes around
What goes up must come down
Now who's cryin, desirin', to come back

I remember when I was sittin home alone
Waitin for you til 3 o'clock in the 'morn
And when you came home you'd always have some sorry excuse
Half explaining to me like I'm just some kind of a fool
I sacrificed the things I wanted just to do things for you
But when it's time to do for me
You never come thru
Now you wanna be up under me
Now you have so much to say to me
Now you wanna make time for me
Whatcha doin to me, you're confusin me
Don't play with me don't play with me cause

[Repeat Chorus 2x]

I remember when I was sittin home alone
Waitin for you till 3 o'clock in the 'morn
Night after night knowing something goin on
Wasn't long before I be gone
Lord knows it wasn't easy believe me
Never thought you'd be the one that would deceive me
And never do what you're supposed to do
No need to approach me fool, cuz I'm over you

[Repeat Chorus]

Gotta stop trying to come back to me

[Repeat Chorus]

It's called Karma baby and it goes around

Heartburn lyrics - alicia keys

Yea. Come on. Timbo! A. Keys,
Let's go!
Let me tell you something
Tell you how I feel
When he comes around
I get to feelin ill
It's a achy feelin inside my chest
It's like I'm going into cardiac arrest

[CHORUS:]
Adrenaline rushing in my body
All my power I just can't fight it
No matter how I keep on tryin'
I can't deny I got this...heartburn [repeat under]
Burnin in my soul
Call the fire department
It's out of control

Got me trippin', slippin', getting' beside myself
I tried some medication but don't nothin help
So I said "Docta, Docta, tell me will I die?"
And he said, "Count to 5 Alicia"
And I'm goin to be all right, Let's go! 1,2,3,4

[CHORUS:]
Adrenaline rushing in my body
All my power I just can't fight it
No matter how I keep on tryin
I can't deny I got this...heartburn [repeat under]
Burnin in my soul
Call the fire department
It's out of control

Tastes so good I can't resist
Getting harder to digest
Can't take no more
Gotta shake it off, and break it down
And take it to the ground with me now
Everybody say OOOOHHHH...
Don't you know I got this...heartburn [repeat under]
Burnin in my soul
Call the fire department
It's out of control
What you tryin' to do?
Heartburn [repeat under]
Burnin in my soul
Call the fire department
It's out of control

Shake it Shake it Shake it off...go head girl
Shake it Shake it Shake it off...oohoohooh
Shake it Shake it Shake it off...go head girl
Shake it Shake it Shake it off...oohoohooh
Go head girl
Oohoohooh

a woman's worth lyrics - alicia keys

You could buy me diamonds, you could buy me pearls
Take me on a cruise around the world
Baby you know I'm worth it
Dinner lit by candles, run my bubble bath
Make love tenderly to last and last
Baby you know I'm worth it
Wanna please wanna keep wanna treat your woman right
Not just told but to show that you know she is worth your time
You will lose if you choose to refuse to put her first
She will if she can't find a man who knows her worth, mhmn

Cuz a real man knows a real woman when he sees her
And a real woman knows a real man ain't afraid to please her
And a real woman knows a real man always comes first
And a real man just can't deny a woman's worth

If you treat me fairly I'll give you all my goods
Treat you like a real woman should
Baby I know you're worth it
If you never play me, promise not to bluff
I'll hold you down when shit gets rough
Baby I know you're worth it
She rolls the mile makes you smile all the while being true
Don't take for granted the passion that she has for you
You will lose if you choose to refuse to put her first
She will if she can't find a man who knows her worth, oh

Cuz a real man knows a real woman when he sees her
And a real woman knows a real man ain't afraid to please her
And a real woman knows a real man always comes first
And a real man just can't deny a woman's worth

No need to read between the lines, spell it out for you
Just hear this song cuz you can't go wrong when you value
A woman, woman, woman, a woman's worth

Cuz a real man knows a real woman when he sees her
And a real woman knows a real man ain't afraid to please her
And a real woman knows a real man always comes first
And a real man just can't deny a woman's worth

Cuz a real man knows a real woman when he sees her
And a real woman knows a real man ain't afraid to please her
And a real woman knows a real man always comes first
And a real man just can't deny a woman's worth

Mhmn mhmn mhmn mhmn mhmn mhmn….

If I Was Your Woman / Walk On By lyrics - alicia keys

[Verse I:]

If I was your woman
And you were my man
You'd have no other woman
You'd be weak as a lamb
If you had the strength
To walk out my door
My love would over rule my sense
And I'd call you back for more

[Chorus:]

If I was your woman
If I was your woman
If I was your woman
If I was your woman
And you were my man, yeah

[Verse II:]

She tears you down darlin
Says you're nothing at all
But I'll pick you up darlin
When she lets you fall cause
You're like a diamond
But she treats you like glass
Yet you beg her to love you
But me you won't ask

[Chorus:]

If I were your woman
If I was your woman
If I were your woman
If I was your woman
If I were your woman
If I was your woman
Here's what I'd do
I'd never, never no no
Stop loving you, yeah

[Verse III:]

Life is so crazy
And love is unkind
Because she was first darlin'
Will she hang on your mind?
You're part of me
But you don't even know it
I'm what you need
But I'm too afraid to show it

[Chorus:]

If I were your woman
If I was your woman
If I were your woman
If I was your woman
If I were your woman
If I was your woman
Here's what I'd do
I'd never, never no no
Stop loving you, yeah
If I was your woman
Here's what I'd do
I'd never, never, never
Stop loving you, yeah

[Bridge:]

If I were your woman
If I were your woman
If I was your woman
If I was your woman
If I were your woman

If I Ain't Got You lyrics - alicia keys

Some people live for the fortune
Some people live just for the fame
Some people live for the power, yeah
Some people live just to play the game
Some people think that the physical things
Define what's within
And I've been there before
But that life's a bore
So full of the superficial

[Chorus:]
Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you baby
If I ain't got you baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain't got you, Yeah

Some people search for a fountain
That promises forever young
Some people need three dozen roses
And that's the only way to prove you love them
Hand me the world on a silver platter
And what good would it be
With no one to share
With no one who truly cares for me

[Chorus:]
Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you baby
If I ain't got you baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain't got you, you, you
Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you baby
If I ain't got you baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain't got you, yeah

[Outro:]
If I ain't got you with me baby
So nothing in this whole wide world don't mean a thing
If I ain't got you with me baby

Every Little Bit Hurts lyrics - alicia keys

Every little bit hurts,
Every little bit hurts..

Every night I cry,
every night I sigh,
every night I wonder why
you treat me cold,
yet you won't let me go.

every little hurt counts,
every little hurt counts,
you say you're coming home,
yet you never phone,
leave me all alone,
my love is strong for you,
I'd do wrong for you.
I can't take this loneliness you've given me.
I can't go on giving m life away.

Oh, come back to me,
darling you'll see,
I can give you everything that you wanted before,
if you will stay with me.

Every little bit hurts,
every little bit hurts

To you I'm a toy and you're the boy,
who has to say when i should play.
yet you hurt me, desert me.

Oh, come back to me,
darling you'll see,
I can give you everhything that you wanted before.
if you will stay with me.

Every little bit hurts,
every little bit hurts,
every little bit hurts,
every little bit hurts.

Streets Of New York (City Life) (feat. Nas, Rakim) lyrics - alicia keys

[Nas (Alicia Keys)]
Nasty, yeah, yeah (New York, New York)
Hey yo black it's time again, yeah, yeah
(New York, New York)
Come here, yeah, yeah
(New York, New York)
Hey yo black it's time

["yeah, yeah, hey yo black it's time" - continues throughout song]

[Nas]
If you knew my streets
You would know all everybody talk about is who got beef
Who snitchin, who told police
Who came home, who still gone, who restin in peace
Now they killin over music money, not drugs, rap replaced it
Cause thugs with no brains got no patience
New jacks I pistol whip 'em with the funky rhythm I be kickin
Musician and flatten composition
A pain, I'm like Saddam Hussein
Still alive lookin at his dead children's burnt remains
I burnt the game, learnt you lames a new lesson
Your crew's soft man, ya'll need some new weapons
The P's breathe Warriorz and skullies and Timmies
Around mixed, spics, niggaz and giddies
From my ghetto kings in deep thought we don't blink
But don't think we wastin our time
It's a New York State of Mind

[Chorus #1 - Alicia Keys]
New York, New York, New York
New York City, whoa oh
New York, New York, New York
New York City, baby

[Alicia Keys]
It's like a jungle, out here
So much struggle, out here
And my dream's still unphased
Greed still the cousin of death
Always feels like always somethin farther time
In the Streets of New York
(New York state of mind, New York State of mind)

[Alicia Keys]
All I see is street homes
And who it's holdin, our people
Only comforts the brain
It's like I'm going insane
The revolution has to start, don't waste no time
In the Streets of New York
(New York state of mind, New York state of mind)
C'mon

[Chorus #2 - Alicia Keys]
New York, New York, New York, New York oh
State of mind (New York City)
New York, New York, New York, New York oh
State of crime (New York City)
New York, New York, New York, New York oh
Big dreams (New York City)
New York, New York, New York, New York oh
Big schemes

[Alicia Keys]
Oh, break the game
Just ain't the same
Baby loves and girls with no shame
Can't get away (get away), epidemic plague
Every hood in every state
Don't have no reasons cause relieve is hard to find

[Break - Alicia Keys]
In the streets of New York (New York state of mind) - [4X]
["New York state of mind" is also repeated in background]

[Rakim]
I'm from the home of a million legends and trend settin
A lot of footsteps to follow, I've been steppin
Mind stressin tryin to find a record crime shreddin
Time precious, I ain't have rest since nine eleven
I live fast, hustle like today is my last
I get cash, the struggle's like a day on the Ave.
Crack bein raw, gats squeezin off
Manhattan squeezin off, from cats who tease with war
The eve of the Apocalypse, evil keep movin politics
Every block is at risk, the metropolitan metropolis
The opposite of Liza Minelli and Frank Sinatra
Alicia Keys, Nas and Ra the gangsta's opera
So New York City walk with me, talk gritty
It's up to us New York it's our city
Here the man come with the anthem, hands up
It's time the thrill is back New York, let's stand up

[Chorus - w/ ad libs]

[Rakim - talking behind Chorus]
Oh yeah, crucial Keys
Your God Rakim Allah
New York City, Nasty Nas
A. Keys, yeah, c'mon

Wild Horses lyrics - alicia keys

Childhood living is easy to do
The things you wanted I bought them for you
Graceless lady you know who I am
You know I can't let you slide through my hands

Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild horses couldn't drag me away

I watched you suffer a dull aching pain
Now you decided to show me the same
No sweeping exits or offstage lines
Could make me feel bitter or treat you unkind

Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild horses, couldn't drag me away

I know I dreamed you a sin and a lie
I have my freedom but I don't have much time
Faith has been broken, tears have been be cried
Let's do some living before we die

Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild horses couldn't drag me away

Wild horses, we'll ride them some day

Diary lyrics - alicia keys

[Verse 1:]
Lay your head on my pillow
Here you can be yourself
No one has to know what you are feelin'
No one but me and you

I won't tell your secrets
Your secrets are safe with me
I will keep your secrets (yes, I will)
Just think of me as the pages in your diary

Oh, baby if there is anything that you fear (anything)
Just call my number baby, baby and I'll be here

Your secrets are safe with me (safe with me)

Just think of me as the pages in your diary

[Bridge:]
Only we know what is talked about, baby boy
I don't know how you could be driving me so crazy, boy
Baby when you're in town why don't you come around, boy?
I'll be the loyalty you need
You can trust me, boy, a-ha

[Hook:]
I won't tell (no, no, no) your secrets (I won't tell nobody)
Your secrets are safe with me (safe with me)

Take notice of what's in front of you

Oh hey, how you doin?
Uh, I feel kinda silly doin' this,
But um, this is the waitress from the coffee house on 39th and Lennox
You know, the one with the braids?
Yeah, well I see you on Wednesdays all the time
You come in every Wednesday on your lunch break, I think
And you always order the special, with the hot chocolate
And my manager be tripping and stuff
Talking bout we gotta use water
But I always use some milk and cream for you
Cause I think you're kinda sweet.
Anyway you always got on some fly blue suit
'n your cufflinks are shining all bright
So, whatchu do? Oh, word? Yeah, that's interesting
Look man, I mean I don't wanna waste your time but
I know girls don't usually do this,
But I was wondering if maybe we could get together
Outside the restaurant one day
Cause I do look a lot different outside my work clothes
I mean we could just go across the street to the park right here
Wait, hold up, my cell phone's breakin up, hold up
Can you hear me now? Yeah
So, what day did you say?
Oh yeah, Thursday's perfect, man:."
And it feels like oooo
You don't know my name

You don't know my name, no no no
(round and round and round we go, will you ever know)
And it feels like oooo
You don't know my name
(round and round and round we go, will you ever know)
And I swear on my mother and father it feels like
Oooo ooo oooo ooo ooo ooo
Oooo ooo oooo ooo ooo ooo
Oooo ooo oooo ooo ooo ooo
You don't know my name
(round and round and round we go, will you ever know?)

Stolen Moments lyrics - alicia keys

Remembering the days when our love began
Thinkin of a million ways
to escape and be with you
But reality wasn't just you and i
It was long drawn out days and lonely nights

Dreamin' bout you
i keep dreamin' bout you
when im dreamin' bout when you would say

[chorus]
let me take you to another place
where nothing ever seems to matter
its just you and me
we can take flight like a thief in the night
stolen moments with you (o0ohhh o0o0oh)

[Verse 2]
Destiny didn't have such a simple plan (simple plan)
I was just a girl and you a young man
how could age define
something so divine (so divine)
Can this even be real or just exist in my mind

Dreamin' bout you
i keep dreamin' bout you
when im dreamin' bout when you would say

[chorus]

[piano breakdown]

Dreamin' bout you
i keep dreamin' bout you
when im dreamin and waiting for the day
when noone and nothing else takes up our time
finally you're only mine

each and everyday
I'd walk with with you right by my side
but instead we have to hide
sneak around and lie
just to spend time alone
If lovin is a crime
i'd rather do the time
and leave the world behind

[chorus]

[piano breakdown 2]

Let's get away
Let's get away
oooh ooh

we can get away
we can get away
ohhh ohhh

Let's get away
Let's get away
ohhh ohhh

we can get away
we can get away
ohhh ohhh

fallin' lyrics - alicia keys

(Verse 1)
I keep on fallin'... in and out of love with you
Sometimes I love ya, uhh, sometimes you make me blue
Sometimes I feel good, At times I feel used
Lovin' you darlin', makes me so confused

[Chorus]
I keep on fallin', in and out of love with you
I never loved someone the way that i'm lovin' you

(Verse 2)
Oh Oh, I.... never felt this way
How do you give me so much pleasure,
cause me so much pain,
'Cause when I think
I'm taking more than would a fool
I start fallin'
back in love with you.

(Chorus)
I keep on fallin', in and out of love witha you
I never loved someone the way that i'm lovin' you

(Bridge x2)Oh baby
I,I,I,I'm
Fa-a-allin'
I,I,I,I'm
Fa-a-allin'
Fall,fall,fa-a-a-allin'

(Chorus)
I keep on fallin', in and out of love witha you
I never loved someone the way that i'm lovin' you

I'm fallin', in and out of love witha you
I never loved someone the way that i'm lovin' you

I'm fallin', in and out of love witha you
I never loved someone the way that i'm lovin' you

what.

Welcome To Jamrock lyrics - alicia keys

[Intro]
Out in the streets, they call it murder!

[Verse 1]
Welcome to Jamrock, camp where the thugs dem camp at
Two pound ah weed inna van back
It inna your hand bag, your knapsack, it inna your back pack
The smell ah give your girlfriend contact
Some bwoy nuh notice, dem only come around like tourist
On the beach with a few club sodas
Bedtime stories, and pose like dem name Chuck Norris
And don't know the real hardcore
Cause Sandals ah nuh Backtoo, the thugs dem will do whe dem got to
And won't think twice to shot yu
Don't make dem spot you, unless you carry guns a lot too
A bare tuff tings come at you

When Trenchtown man stop laugh and lock-off traffic
Then dem wheel and pop off and dem start clap it
With the pin file dung an it ah beat drop it
Police come inna jeep and dem cant stop it
Some say them ah playboy ah playboy rabbit
get dropped like a bad habit
So nuh bodah pose tuff if you don't have it
Rastafari stands alone!

[Chorus]
Welcome to Jamrock, Welcome to Jamrock
Out in the streets, they call it murder!

[Verse 2]
Welcome to Jamrock, poor people ah dead at random
Political violence, can done! Pure ghost and phantom, the youth
dem get blind by stardom
Now the Kings Of Kings ah call
Old man to Pickney, so wave unnuh hand if you with me
To see the sufferation sick me
Dem suit no fit me, to win election dem trick we
Then dem don't do nuttin at all

C'mon let's face it, a ghetto education's basic
And Most ah de youths them waste it
And when dem waste it, that's when dem take the guns replace it
Then dem don't stand a chance at all
And that's why ah nuff little youth have up some fat matic
With the extra magazine inna dem back pocket
And have leisure night time inna some black jacket
All who nuh lock glocks, ah dem a lock rocket
They will full you up ah current like ah short circuit
Dem a run ah roadblock which part the cops block it
And from now till a mornin nuh stop clock it
If dem run outta rounds ah bruck back ratchet

[Chorus]
Welcome to Jamrock (Southside, Northside)
Welcome to Jamrock (East Coast, West Coast, huh, yo)
Welcome to Jamrock (Conwell, Middlesex in Stereo) Hey!
Welcome to Jamrock
Out in the streets, they call it murder!!!

[Outro]
Jamaica Jamaica! Jamaica Jamaica! Now!
Jamaica Jamaica! Yo! Jamaica Jamaica!
Welcome to Jamrock, Welcome to Jamrock
