(repeat)

Did anybody see ya
commin?to my house last night
when I got your message in my beeper
that you wanna do everything I like
alright, alright
I like being in the same room with you and your girlfriend
the fact that she don know, that really turns me on
she l never guess in a million years
that we got this thing goin?on

Chorus:
you e my little secret
and that how we should keep it
it on everybody mind about you and I
they think so but they don really know or wanna know
that you e my little secret
and that how we should keep it
we should never let m know
never let it show
if you know like I know
we should never let it go

If anybody knew that
it was you and your house that I was creepin to all tha time
we probably still do it
ause I find it hard to keep you off of my mind baby
I like being in the same room with you and your girlfriend
the fact that she don know, that really turns me on
she l never guess in a million years
that we got this thing goin?on

Chrous

Everybody cheats
but you gotta know how
gotta know when
you gotta know why my
infatuation wit you is takin me on an emotional high
I caught all up in this love affair baby
speculations will bring us stares
all my friends are askin me about it
still the truth I can reveal

Chorus

As long as I right here
you ain never gonna be by yourself (no, no, no)
cause the love that we share
it stays on my mind
always gonna be a little secret of mine
As long as I right here (no)
you ain never gonna be by yourself
(no you don have to be alone)
cause the love that we share
stays on my mind
always gonna be a little secret of mine

Chorus


2.The Runaround

and yet she getting over

Chorus

It took a lot for me to give you all my lovin
and just to think I gave you everything for nothin
I tried my best to satisfy you

Chorus

No I can believe

Chorus


3.I Will

ooh I will always love you

You were the first to take my heart
make me happy
at the same time make me cry
showed me a lot of things
I never knew that I had inside
late night phone conversations of you tellin me what you wanna
do
then we argue all night about who been sleepin with you
And no matter what people say
it don change the way I feel
and no matter how much we fuse and fight
I gotta keep it real with myself
cause as bad as I wanna leave
it the hardest thing for me
I can keep tryin ta act like I don care
but deep down inside I ain goin nowhere

Chorus:
I will always love you
no matter how many things
you try to do or say
certain things just don go away
I will always love you
no matter how many things
you try to do or say
certain things just don go away

You were the first to see my body body
give me gifts and all types of real nice things
I used to tell you how much I loved you
and in return you would do the same
I e had so many lonely days
ever since you uped and went away
I can help but wonder where you e at
hopin one day you l be back baby
And no matter what people say
it don change the way I feel
and no matter how much we fuse and fight
I gotta keep it real with myself
cause as bad as I wanna leave
it the hardest thing for me
I can keep tryin ta act like I don care
but deep down inside I ain goin nowhere

Chorus

Respectfully I say to thee
I aware that you e cheating
but no one
no one
can make me feel the way you do

Chorus


4.The Softest Place On Earth

on a new horizon of love
and it more exotic than Jamaica

Overflowing with emotion
I will make you feel so sensual
When I touch you

8.Am I Dreamin?

Am I dreaming baby?
Are you for real?

Things are kind of hazy
And my head's all cloudy inside (Inside)
Now I've heard talk of angels, baby
But never though I would have one to call mine
(Never thought)

See you are just too good to be true
And I hope
There's not some kinda mirage
With you, oh baby

1-Am I dreaming
Am I just imagining you're here in my life
Am I dreaming
Pinch me to see if it's real
Cuz my mind can't decide

Cuz my mind can't decide
No, no, no, no, no, oh
Will this last for one night
Or do I have you for a time
Please say that it's forever
And that it's not an illusion to my eye

And I, I hope
That you just don't up and disappear
My love I pray
That it's not a hoax and it's for real, oh
(rpt 1)

Hear me out now
Sometimes say that sometimes

Show me that you're not a mirage

Oh, I need you to pinch me baby
I need you to pinch me baby
Am I

Am I just imagining you're here in my life

Pinch me to see if it's real
Cuz my mind can't decide


9.The Arms of the One Who Loves You

and if the road you take leads to heartbreak somewhere down the
line
if someone ever hurts you or treats your heart unkind

Chorus:
You just run to the arms of the one who loves you
you just run to these arms
and these two arms will keep you warm
when rain has felt your heart

to the arms of the one who loves you

I want you happy
I want the best for you
and if you have to leave to find your dream
I hope that dream comes true
and if the world you find brings you hard times
if someone makes you cry
I l be there to hold you
I l be standin by

Chorus

Oh my love is strong enough you know
strong enough to let you go

and if you should ever cahnge your mind

11.One Of Those Love Songs

When you e far from me

it our own symphony
just for you and me
and I hope they play it real soon
everytime I wish that we were dancing slow
that when I hear it playing on the radio
and I know

Chorus:
This is one of those love songs
that you hear in the middle of the night
makes me wanna be with you
wherever you are tonight
and whoever listening just hold your lover tight
this is one of those love songs
one of those love songs

As days turn into years
we e had our share of tears
but they never seem to last long
cause the sadness disappeared
everytime I hear our favorite love song
now the candles burn as I lay here in my bed
as the molody keeps playing over and over in my head

Chorus

That you never want to end no
and you hope that the dj plays it again and again and again
play it again and again and again

18.Softest Place On Earth

Verse one (latocha):
It's a glowing little feeling,
Like a summer sun that slowly rises,
On a new horizon of love.
And it's more exotic than jamaica,
Or the rain that falls in costa rica,
Like a waterfall to the sea,
So tell me baby...

Bridge:
Do you wanna fly, i can take you high,
Come ride on these midnight skies.
If you're looking for heaven's only door,
You've got the key baby open me.

Chorus:
Baby won't you come inside,
I'll take you on a fantasy ride.
Take a journey through my universe,
My love's the softest place on earth.
You don't have to pull the blinds,
Let the neighbours lose their minds.
Baby you can be the first,
Inside the softest place on earth.

Verse two (latocha):
Overflowing with emotion,
I can will you feel so sensual,
When i touch you, you will lose all control.
Come on baby, kiss me all over,
From my mountains to my valley low,
There's an ocean of love just for you,
Just for you.

Repeat bridge and chorus

Break:
So no more dreaming,
Your body's steaming,
You want it baby, this is your night.
I keep arising, i'm fantasising,
I want it so bad i'll do what you like.
We can do it in the movies,
Or in my jacuzzi,
Or maybe central park.
So if there's any doubt,
To what i'm all about,
So tell your friends i'm turning you out.

Repeat chorus
