1.Strike Up The Band

作詞:Phonte Lyshod Coleman, Larry Darnell Jr Griffin, Caleb Mc
Campbell, Inga Willis, Yahzarah

Hey, what's to hear without a theme music?
Come on, y'all, uh-huh, I'm back, that's right
Somebody strike up the band, Miss Saint James is here
That's right, without further ado, mm, hum

I heard that you avoid to ever come to save the day so have no
fear
So raise your glass and make a toast here, oooh
Then 'round the block, let's have a beat, imagine me some blues
Lend me your ear

That was more what you came here for, c'mon baby
'Cause you'd be in the basement grinding, workin' little hard
for sho'
Hey, lookin' like it's perfect timing
Better act like you know, oh ooh

We came to shake it up and make your body boogie woogie
Get somebody, everybody turn it up and let me turn you on
Hey, what you say? Go on, let the music play

Somebody
(Somebody)
Strike up the band
(Ooh yeah, yeah)
Miss Saint James is here
Whoa oh, oh, ooh ooh
Woo, woo, woo ooh
Take me out, y'all


2.Why Dontcha Call Me No More

Somebody told me I saw you with her last night
Not want to gossip, just telling you what I heard
Or maybe that explains our last encounter
You look to me and didn't even say a word, ohh

Obviously you never had a broken heart
Or you woulda known better
Than to play you with someone else's
How do you sleep when you don't finish what you start?
I hope you're happy or whatever
Or second thought, not really
Hey!

You can tell the press to that which come to my surprise
You're not a man at it at all
So tell me what's your fascination with the assassinating
Anything that's not your own
Well you don't see it coming, but you'll never find another girl
like me again
Baby, why dontcha call me no more?
Baby, baby why dontcha, dontcha call me no more?

You really try to convince me
That she's the perfect catch
That she's really a new thing
Or just another match
Just trying to shine a shadow of you
Call me crazy
When you're alone, tell me what else to do, oooh

Obviously you never had a broken heart
Or you woulda known better
Than to play you with someone else's
How do you sleep when you don't finish what you start?
I hope you're happy or whatever
Or second thought, not really
Hey!

You can tell the press to that which come to my surprise
You're not a man at it at all
So tell me what's your fascination with the assassinating
Anything that's not your own
Well you won't see it coming, but you'll never find another girl
like me again
Baby, why dontcha call me no more?
Sugar, sugar why dontcha, dontcha call me no more

I hope you have a little girl, oh, and she's the apple of your
eye
Oooh, you'll never see her cry
Somebody breaks her heart the way you did mine
I hope you make her cry, oo-oooh yeahhhh, yeah
I hope somebody makes her cry (laughs)
1, 2, 3, 4!
Ooooh, yeah, why dontcha call me, baby?
Oh, why dontcha call me, baby, hey-ey-eyy
Why don't you call me anymore, ooooh...
Call me anymore, yeah, why don't you call
Call me anymore, yeah, why don't you-ou
Call me anymore, yeah, yeah, yeah
Call me anymore, yeah
Why don't you call me anymore, yeah


3.Cry Over You

It goes...
Woo! Hey

Sittin' on my lunch break, waitin' by the phone, yeah
But I never get a ring today, uh-uh
Not a word from you, and you never answered my call, no
I guess it wasn't my turn to play
Got home and nursed I wanna cry
And I poured it myself a taste, uh-huh
Gve my girl a call and say 'Baby, let's hit the town', yeah
I'll never let a Friday night go to waste, uh-huh

What's tonight
You're with another girl and I'm with my friends
Things you like
Feels like I'm right back where I started again
Candle light
Grown up and I'm not waiting
Got no more time for your lies in my eyes
They ain't gonna cry over you

I've got all attention and maybe may I mention
And it's not the end of my world
I can't say I'm not disappointed
We're really coulda had a good time
Tonight is young and for the taking
And this girl's gonna be fine

Yo, uh, never seen, never heard before
Never embraced the face like hers before
She said she ain't got a man and ain't got kinds
But she got a situation like Jersey Shore
No strings perferred, of course
Said 'Baby, you're such a gentleman and your kindness is
humbling'
'Cause all she needed was a night getting over him
So next morning, she was waking up feeling me

What's tonight
You're with another girl and I'm with my friends
Things you like
Feels like I'm right back where I started again
Candle light
Grown up and I'm not waiting
Got no more time for your lies in my eyes
They ain't gonna cry over you
(Let's switch it up)

You're with another girl and I'm with my friends (Yeah)
Feels like I'm right back where I started again (One time)
Grown up and I'm not waiting
Got no more time for your lies in my eyes
They ain't gonna cry over you (Uh, yeah)

Mmm-mmm, hey
Ain't gonna cry over you
Oh, ooh, oooh, ooh, ooh, yeah-eah
Ain't gonna cry over you
Oh, eee, yeah, yeah
Ain't gonna cry over you
Eee, yeah, yeah, yeah-eee, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh
Ain't gonna cry over you, oooh, oooh
Ooooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, yeah


4.All My Days

buried me up to my neck in your love
you are the dream I've had for so long
I've tried to hold back from my feelings before
thought you could just running out to score
you hold me in your arms and
all disappears but you and I, I, I
to start shining in our universe
that's built on love alone, ooh
I know I'll never be alone 'cause
I don't believe in fairytales or the perfect one
more than a friend
yet something greater than lovers
much, much more than a passing phase
a masquerade
'cause I wanna spend all my days with you
spend all my days with you, baby
lovin' when I'm coming home from work
you always ask me 'How's your day?'
I love you for lovin' the man that I am
you don't even try to change (me)
most of all, I love you for lovin' me
when I had nothing to give in return
darling, you are the best thing for me
your love has changed me and it's open my eyes
my feelings I can't describe in my heart
a burning quiet fire in my heart
now that love's
ohhh-ohhhh, oh, baby
(more than a passing phase, a masquerade)
(more than a passing phase, a masquerade)


5.Come Back As A Flower

作詞:Stevie Wonder, Syreeta Wright

The strangest thought came to me on this morning
As I awake to greet the coming dawn
The sun was hardly peaking through the garden
It felt that with everything I was one

Then I wished that I could come back as a flower
As a flower, as a flower
How I wished that I could come back as a flower
As a flower

To spread the sweetness of love
To spread the sweetness of love

The dew had finished making love to many
A rainbow smelling sweet was in the air
I envied all the silence I saw growing
So unmoved by things outside themselves

Then how I wished that I could come back as a flower
As a flower, as a flower
How I wished that I could come back as a flower
As a flower

To spread the sweetness of love

How I wished that I could come back as a flower
Oh, as a flower, as a flower
How I wished that I could come back as a flower
As a flower, as a flower

To spread the sweetness of love
To spread the sweetness of love

Wished that I could come back as a flower
Flower, flower
Wished that I could come back as a flower
Flower, sweetness of love

How I come back as a flower
Flower, flower
How I come back as a flower
Flower

Sweetness of love
Sweetness of love


6.Dedicated To You

作詞:Sammy Cahn, Saul Chaplin, Hy Zaret

If I should write a book for you
That brought me fame and fortune, too
That book would be like my heart and me
Dedicated to you

And if I should paint a picture, too
That shows the loveliness of you
That art would be like my heart and me
Dedicated to you

To you, because your love is a the beacon
That lights up my way
To you, because with you I know
One lifetime could be just one heavenly place

If I should find a twinkling star
(Twinkling star)
One half so wondrous as you are
That star would be like my heart and me
Dedicated to you


7.The Lie

Don't talk to me, don't speak, don't say a word
I already know what you're thinking
You wanna move, you got a itch
Wanna see if the grass is greener
If it's always raining, then somebody's crying
But if it's always sunny, then somebody's lying
And one day when you run down your list of regrets,
You'll see that I'm as perfect as you're gonna get, yeah

You got your head in the clouds, your heart your a sleeve
And you will stay with her evry now and then
It's like the bigger the lie, the more you believe
But you have no idea what you're up against
(x2)

Baby, you know the fact the other side would be easy
She only shows you what she want you to see
But if you gotta go through hell with somebody,
Why don't you do it with me?

You got your head in the clouds, your heart on a sleeve
And you will stay with her every now and then
It's like the bigger the lie, the more you believe
But you have no idea what you're up against
What you're up against

Don't talk to me, don't speak (Mm..), don't say a word
I already know what you're thinking (Mm, mm, mm)
You wanna move (Mm), you got a itch (Yeah)
Wanna see if the grass is greener
So if it's always raining, then somebody's crying
But if it's always sunny, then somebody's lying
And one day when you run down your list of regrets,
You'll see that I'm as perfect as you're gonna get, hey, hey..

Babe, you really think that love would be easy
Well, everybody, that's on love on degree
'Cause if you gotta go through hell with somebody,
Might as well do it with me

You got your head in the clouds, your heart on a sleeve
And you will stay with her every now and then [you keep runnin'
away]
It's like the bigger the lie, the more you believe
But you have no idea what you're up against
You got your head in the clouds, your heart on a sleeve
And you will stay with her every now and then

Oh you have no idea what you're up against
What you're up against, ah
Have no idea what you're up against
Have no idea what you're up against


8.Last To Leave

We made a vow to write us out
So what is there to figure out
Baby, do we need to talk about it? (Talk about it)
Don't let pride push us apart, mm
We didn't even come to this
Us not knowing how to talk
Baby, you should know you're the love of my life

Mm, and I want you to hold me
And tell me you'll be the last to leave and to stay with me
And we'll work it out without a doubt
That's all I'm asking of you
Oh-oh-oh, show me
And tell me, baby, you'll never leave and to stay with me
Without a doubt, we'll work it out
That's all I want to hear from you.. oooh, oooh
Ooooh, ooooh, oooh
Oo-oo-ooh, oo-oo-ooh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, ohhhhhhhhhh
Oohhhhhhhhhhhh, ooooh

I swear it never, ever crossed my mind
To build this home with someone else
There's only you and I together, remember
We were so happy back then, ohh
There's only once in a lifetime
That they got a love like yours and mine
And now you wanna go and change your mind
I don't want our story to end

Oh-oh-oh, hold me (No, no, no, no)
And tell me (Tell me, baby) you'll be the last to leave and to
stay with me
And we'll work it out (oh we'll work it out), without a doubt
(Baby, mmm)
That's all I'm asking of you, ooooh, ohh
Oh-oh-oh, show me (Show me)
And tell me, baby, you'll never leave and to stay with me
Without a doubt (Without a doubt), we'll work it out
That's all I want to hear from, from you

No one said that love would be easy, mm
But living it seems to be so hard
When could we forget to communicate
I given you all of my heart

Oh-oh-oh, hold me, ooooh
And tell me (Tell me, baby), you'll be (oh, you'll be) the last
to leave
and to stay with me
And we'll work it out (We'll work it out), without a doubt

And tell me, baby, you'll never leave and to stay with me
Without a doubt (Without a doubt, without a doubt)
Ohhhh, oohhhh, ooooh, oooh
From you-ou, oooh, mm-mmm, mmmmmm
You got to be kidding if you think that I'm willing to give up
all those things
That we started-ed, aahh, aahhh, ooooh
No, no, no, no
That's what I want to hear...


9.Have A Heart

What can I say that hasn't already been said
The cold spot in my bed
Already tells a story about it clear
Feels like my heart (on a merry-go-round)
Loving and loving and leaving all over again
Not even sure if I can't pretend
That I've got my self-respect, what's left of it, he-ey

I learned to rely on my instinct to guide me
But I'm not as cold as I thought, oh
Try to deny all those feelings inside me
I'm sorry I still have a heart, oh

Ooooh, ooh, so there you are and here I am
One woman and one man laying here, trying to understand
How can love grow, or have truths and rendezvous', yeahh
If she found out about us two, that be so much to lose
So I would play the substitute so you won't have to choose
I hate you now trying to leave and we make love and hardly in
denial
That you leave her and it's sweeter than the truth
I learned...

I learned to rely on my instinct to guide me
But I'm not as cold as I thought, oh (But I'm not as cold as I
thought)
Try to deny all those feelings inside me (I learned to rely)
I'm sorry I still (Sorry I have a) have a heart (sorry I have
a), oh
(Sorry I have a heart)
I learned to rely on my instinct to guide me
But I'm not as cold as I thought, oh
Try to deny all those feelings inside me (oooooh... oooohh....)
But sorry I still have a heart, oh (Oooh, I still have)


Ohhhh, ohhh... I really mean to love you, baby, oohh ahh
When you make me go crazy, ohhh aahhh
And you know I need you, baby, oo-oo-oo-oooh
Oo-oo-oo-oooh... heyy ohhhh... ahhh ohhh ahhh...
Oh, heyy yea-yea-ea-ea-ea-ea-ea-eah, yeah
Out of condition from the spot stains on my floors
Oh baby, oh baby

12.Shadow

in this life, things may come
to challenge our faith
to see what we're made of
the weather's that may be a challenge are
improbability once again
be strong
when someone knows your story
who loves you anyway
though your emotions may be toseed to and fro
knowing their shadow
you'll still be in sheltered
look up

green turns red falls to the ground
water and ice kiss, and snow's all around
rain clouds cry down to the earth
then everything on the earth gets burned

peaks and valleys, we'll all have our share
born to make the strong and wise
then tell a story of a thousand got overs
there is a shadow

you know my story and love me anyway
going and coming you are my day to day
when I am lonely, I'll probably goes where
far from a shadow around me

passing the same, it's way too soon
to believing unseen walk on the moon
but who were they to steal from our sky
though we are in trust, we still strive

peaks and valleys, we'll all have our share
born to make the strong and wise
then tell a story of a thousand got overs
there is a shadow around me


13.Love, Come Save The Day

I never thought that I would love again
'cuz it escaped me for so long
but I could never learn to live again
so glad you came and prove me wrong
darkness falls into te night
but every day's new morning light
it's another chance to give yourself away
lovin' you's a very essence
of being in the arms of heaven
I'm calling out, love, come save the day
some days it rains so hard, I couldn't see
my dreams seems so far out of reach
yeahhh, ah
