 Sweet Love

With all my heart I love you stay with me and you will see
My arms will hold you never leave because I believe
I'm in love, sweet love hear me calling out your name, I feel no shame
I'm in love, sweet love don't you ever go away, it will always be this way

Heart has called me closer to you I will be all that you need
Just trust in what we're feeling never leave because I believe
In this love sweet love hear me calling out your name I feel no shame
I'm in love sweet love don't you ever go away it will be always this way

No stronger love in this world you're my man, I'm your girl
I'll never go, wait and see, can't be wrong don't you know this is where you belong
Sweet this dream how lovely stay right here, never fear
I will be all that you need never leave because  I believe
In this love sweet love hear me calling out you name I feel no shame 
I'm in love sweet love don't you ever go away it will always be this way

Watch Your Step

I know the kind of pain you offer
I've felt your kind of pain before
Change your mind like revolving doors
Change your women like you change your clothes

I'm telling you you better watch your step
You'll fall and hurt yourself one day
You better watch your step
You'll fall and hurt yourself one day

I don't understand your thinking
Don't know why you do the things you do
Break my heart, and disregard my feelings
Breaking hearts' some kind of game to you

It's so easy to tease me it's so easy to let me down
It's so easy to mislead me it's so easy to leave me hanging around
Nowhere to come down.
Maybe, we should just forget this
Just throw me out of your mind
I won't stay, not while you mistreat me
I won't stay, It's just a waste of my time

Rules

Love was meant to be loving
So many times we don't give, we take
Love has really no conception to this rule
Days you gave me were numbered
And as a rule they were hard to take
All it took was the number of a fool
Rules were made to be broken so many hearts break the same way too
I said that you ain't no exception to the rule

Your answer begging my question it seems I left you too late to ask
Was this really your intention from the start
The nights you left me are empty as for the answer, they changed the past
I tried to let you explain your change of heart how could you change your mind
Rules were made to be broken so many hearts break the same way too
I said that you ain't no exception to the rule

How could they say it would be better this way without you
When by the usual rules I kept presuming that you would stay
So many hearts break the same way too, now
I said that you ain't no exception to the rule you
Gonna get on my bad heart just like everybody asks you
You've gotta help you've gotta help me convert, too
You better hear what I'm telling you

Squeeze Me

Come on and squeeze me won't you tease me
Come on and squeeze me I like it when you tease me

Like the way you shake your thang like the way you move
Love the way you so casually slide into the groove
You know you take me so high I don't want to come down you don't have to come down
You don't have to be shy as long as I'm around
You love me so good I could never love another
And I wish you would not be so undercover

Whenever I get lonely I start thinking about you
You're the only one can do the things you do
You tickle my fascination I get all caught up around you
Such a thrilling sensation when you get into my groove

Hold me tell me I'm your one and only
Make it good tonight I'm gonna make it feel so nice
Your love is so good I can never love another
And I wish you would not be so undercover

More Than You Know

Where did you go I've been looking for you where did you go
I'm pacing the floor when you're gone from me I'm pacing this floor
I stand by you so close caution is not my approach
My heart I expose more than you know

Wasting my time everybody says I'm wasting my time
I must reply that the time I waste is certainly mine
I stand by you so close caution is not my approach
My heart I expose more than you know

Where did you go I've been looking for you where did you go
I'm pacing the floor when you're gone from me I'm pacing this floor
I stand by you so close caution is not my approach
My heart I expose more than you know

When You Love Someone

Were we ever, did we use it up too fast our great moments never met to last
And the last thing that I want is to ever make your smile go away
Keep the memories take the best of what we had
I can't stand to watch what once was great go bad
And if I can't be with you then I rather just remember what we knew
When you love someone and you love them with your heart
And it doesn't disappear if you're apart

When you love someone and you've done all you can do you've done all you can
When you set them free and if that love is true
When you love someone it will all come back to you
Nights I wondered was I too much that we gave
If we gave in more could we have both been saved
And I guess we have crossed the line
Never knowing what was yours and what was mine
When you love someone and you love them with your heart
And it doesn't disappear if you're apart

And through it all, I still have no regrets
Just promise me  you never will forget
When you love someone and you have done all you can do
And you set them free and if that love is true
If you love someone, it will all come back to you
When you love someone and you love them with your heart
And it doesn't disappear if you're apart
