Boyz II Men - II Album Lyrics

Written by Boyz II Men and Dallas Austin

I was young (bop)
And didn't have no where to run
I needed to (wake up) and see (and see)
What's in front of me (na-na-op)
There had to be, a better way
To show I'm grateful (hum)
So I thought up this song
To show my appreciation for lovin' me so long
You don't know how much you mean to me


Chorus:
'Cause even though when times get rough
You never turned away
You were right there
And I thank you (thank uooo)
When I felt I had enough
You never turned away
You were right there
And I thank you (thank you)


All through my life
I knew that you'd be my world
Knowing every where I go
Things you taught me they would show
So many times and changes
You've seen me through
I sure enough couldn't have survived without you
And so I thought up this song
To show my appreciation for lovin' me so long...
You don't know how much you mean to me


Chorus

London, Paris, Monte Carlo, Germany and Rome
Different places, different faces still it feels like home
China, Holland, Belgium, Rio, Africa, Japan
That's the life we live and we do the best we can
Here we go on another tour on the road again
Feelin' good it's alright
Just enjoying ourselves
Come and take a flight with

Boyz II Men back around the world
And were comin' through your town
All we do is for you
'Cause you've always been there
And we appreciate you

Keisha, Kelly, Tonya, Stacy, Mica and LaShaun
Kathy, Trina, Carla, Lisa, Cheri, and Diane
All these girls around the world are fly in every land
And it's hard to choose, but there's one for every man

Boyz II Men back around the world
And were comin' through your town
All we do is for you
'Cause you've always been there
And we appreciate you

Houston, Phoenix, Carolina, Jersey, and the Keys
Denver, Boston, Mississippi, Georgia, Tennessee
Dallas, Cleveland, Cali, Philly, New York, and DC
That's the life we live and we do the best we can
Here we go on another tour back in stride again
Feelin' good it's alright
Just enjoying ourselves
Come and take a ride with

Boyz II Men back around the world
And were comin' through your town
All we do is for you
'Cause you've always been there
And we appreciate you

I heard you're gonna leave me
I've known it for a while
I wasn't naive to the news
My mind just couldn't walk a mile
I only see you with me
Cause I know the things you like
I know all that you believe
And all the plans of your life
So take a minute to understand me
To reevaluate your mind
I'm everything you need
And in this world a good man is hard to find
And I know you'll miss me
When all is said and done
You'll think about this day
And then you'll realize I was the one

[Chorus:]
You know that all you need is in me and
You know that my love's all right and
Baby you know I can't be denied girl
You know, ooh you know, you know

Gave you all a man could give ya,
Made sure I found the time, to
Keep it all together, but the way you're
Treating me ain't right (can't understand) it
Why you're doing me the way you're
Doing, do you enjoy to see our love
Fade away
Can't face the world without ya
Can't even sleep at night
Gave you all that I treasured
And I tried to love you with all my might
And I know you'll miss me when all is said and done
You'll think about this day
And then you'll realize I was the one
You know

[Chorus]

[Verse One: Erick Sermon]

It's Kenny, and Erick Sermon
Give me room I'm the mack-tastic, theatrical
Dramatical, bringing pain plus working chains
Hey, it's Erick Sermon with the umm my sound is high bias
Not on Def Squad I wouldn't try this
Check the mixes my style is wicked like three 6's
Harmony stacked vocals on Boyz II Men spinnin
like the wheels, on my black 500 S
TV's in the headrest, who flex the best?
No question, I'm the nuh, believe what you heard
I shut down dig and vibe in boy that's my word
My style, is all the way live
And Billy Dee love it like it's Colt .45, vibe

[Verse Two: Keith Murray]

Now you can On a Bended Knee to the End of the Road
Luxurious glorious punks vibe all in your soul
And I ain't even gotta talk about how I'm livin
With E.D. and Boyz II Men, turnin little girls to women
From the mental to the physical, I get in you
Let's keep it real and bring your homegirls for the Def Squad crew
I been all around the world, what battle me?
Take this autograph home and give it to your family
It's a shame the way I trap rappers up in my brain
And drive em all Batty, like Bruce Wayne
I be spackling and tackling
MC's to the mat like world wrestling, just vibing

[Chorus: Boyz II Men]

Every-thing's fine
It ain't nothing to it, cause we're gonna do it all
But all we do is
We're just, vibin, you know it
Dancin the night away
We're just, vibin
Nonstop until the break of day

[Verse Three: Redman]

Jumpin jehosa, I roast a, toughest MC
You're coming closer, to getting blown, effin with these
I freak the funk styles major, my neighbors complain
about the vapors and the capers, and murder your brain
The hot rocker, the shocker of the, 40's and vodka
The Phantom of the Opera give you, one beat to rock ta
Plus my poppa, threw me out when I was young
Now I'm a Boy II Man run with the with the Boyz and plan
with a, new toy in hand, mics I get freaky like a
Dean it don't matter what the size of the arena
Kenny Smoove, drop it on the one while I bust
Any MC that think they running with us

[Chorus]

[Verse Four: Two To Da Head]

Bust it, it be the Boyz II the Men, with the Two To Da Head
Coming through with Ed sticking victims through their necks
to be down On Bended Knee, and caught up in the vibe
Honey I get you wet until your Water Runs Dry
And once I hear the bum-baada, umm-dada
Original problem child, I betta holla
For some mo', while I headline the freak show
And get you vibin from here, to the End of the Road
You bust a U-turn cause it's So Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday
It's more rotten baby
Droppin Sermons like Erick for all the lost souls that perished
Big up to Most Beautifullest and the Funkadelic

Who says the sea can't move in winter
Or clouds stand still in a storm
Who says a man can't cry
And be lonely
Who says a man can't tend to be bored
And if you could see inside my heart
You would see loneliness
And if I could show you my mind
You would be depressed

[Chorus:]
Said I sit away lonely
And I get away only in my mind
Said I sit away lonely
And I get away sometimes

So I'll gather my things
And be on my way
Into my lonely place
Said I'm feelin' lonely and lonesome
And I just need to get away
And if you could know what I'm afraid of
You would be frightened
And if you could feel the pain that
I'm feelin'
Then you would know why, I

[Chorus]

[Breakdown:]
Sit away
Said I get away
Said I sit away
Said I sit away
Why do I feel
Like I will never be loved again
There I go
Back in my mood again
Lonely, lonely

[Chorus]

Saw you on a Sunday afternoon
Riding the B train
Yes, I was coolin' on the B train
You had an air about you
I had to know and soon
First sight and I didn't
Even mind the rain
Your glow was the ailment
To all my pain inside
I sat beside your body and asked your name
Your fragrance made it hard to explain my plight
Of how you're driving me insane

[Chorus:]
Jezzebel don't know you well
I can't believe how my feelings took over
But I'd like to
Let me let you know that I'm on
And I want you
Aiming to please just let me show you

The moment that you opened up your lips
I knew that you were the one
Hope you don't mind if I touch your finger tips
Please don't draw the line just yet
I promise I won't go too far
Cause you've been haunting me
Every since I saw your face
I can't escape you now
Be mine and wait and see love that
Many people search their whole life for
Here to let you know babe,
That I'm real, oh so real

[Chorus]

[Breakdown:]
Wanna get to know you
Don't know your nationality
Can we converse and see
When a good time to get together
Baby...am I being a little fast
No, I don't know
Maybe so I don't think so
In fact I don't care
All I want to do is touch your hair
And taste your air
What perfume are you wearing
Oh, oh the smell

[Chorus]

To ease the pain
Of changing from Boyz II Men
No one to guide me

I'm all alone
No one to cry on
I need shelter from the rain
To ease the pain
Of changing from Boyz II Men

No one to guide me
I'm all alone
No one to cry on
I need shelter from the rain

To ease the pain
Of changing from Boyz II Men

Here we go again

[Talk:]
Baby I'm so glad your here
'Cause I have so many things to tell you
So many things to talk to you about
'Cause your the strength I hold onto
And I hope I'm the strength that you hold onto
So we can strive together and be perfect
Til' death do us part

The nights gone the morning here
And soon it's time to talk about
Where we stand and where we plan
To be in life long years I need to know
I keep crying tears of joy
I guess that's what you're put here for
To change these tears of pain
To tears of happiness

Through these trying times
trying to get the best of me
I'm still finding time to show I care
With my crying eyes
I see contentment because of you

Trials and tribulations build up walls
In front of faces made of stone
Yet we stand strong enough
To break the walls down to journey on
But I know if we just bond our hearts
There will be nothing that will stand in our way
And we'll be together forever and a day

Through these trying times
trying to get the best of me
I'm still finding time to show I care
With my crying eyes
I see contentment because of you

Close your eyes, make a wish
And blow out the candlelight
For tonight is just your night
We're gonna celebrate
All through the night

Pour the wine, light the fire
Girl your wish is my command
I submit to your demands
I will do anything
Girl you need only ask

I'll make love to you
Like you want me to
And I'll hold you tight
Baby all through the night
I'll make love to you
When you want me to
And I will not let go
'Til you tell me to

Girl relax, let's go slow
I ain't got nowhere to go
I'm just gonna concentrate on you
Girl are you ready?
It's gonna be a long night

Throw your clothes on the floor
I'm gonna take my clothes off too
I made plans to be with you
Girl whatever you ask me you know I can do

I'll make love to you
Like you want me to
And I'll hold you tight
Baby all through the night
I'll make love to you
When you want me to
And I will not let go
'Til you tell me to

Baby tonight is your night
And I will do you right
Just make a wish on your night
Anything that you ask
I will give you the love of your life

I'll make love to you
Like you want me to
And I'll hold you tight
Baby all through the night
I'll make love to you
When you want me to
And I will not let go
'Til you tell me to

I'll make love to you
Like you want me to
And I'll hold you tight
Baby all through the night
I'll make love to you
When you want me to
And I will not let go
'Til you tell me to

Darlin' I, I can't explain
Where did we lose our way?
Girl it's drivin' me insane
And I know I just need one more chance
To prove my love to you
And if you come back to me
I'll guarantee
That I'll never let you go

Can we go back to the days our love was strong?
Can you tell me how a perfect love goes wrong?
Can somebody tell me how to get things back
The way they used to be?
Oh God, give me a reason
I'm down on bended knee

I'll never walk again until you come back to me
I'm down on bended knee

So many nights I dream of you
Holding my pillow tight
And I know that I don't need to be alone, yeah
When I open up my eyes
To face reality
Every moment without you
It seems like eternity
I'm begging you, begging you come back to me

Can we go back to the days our love was strong?
Can you tell me how a perfect love goes wrong?
Can somebody tell me how to get things back
The way they used to be?
Oh God, give me a reason
I'm down on bended knee

I'll never walk again, until you come back to me
I'm down on bended knee

Baby, I'm sorry
Please forgive me for all the wrong I've done
Please come back home, girl
I know you put all your trust in me
I'm sorry I let you down
Please forgive me

I'm gonna swallow my pride
Say I'm sorry
Stop pointing fingers, the blame is on me
I want a new life
And I want it with you
If you feel the same
Don't ever let it go
You gotta believe in the spirit of love
It'll heal all things
It won't hurt anymore
No I don't believe our love's terminal
I'm down on my knees, begging you please come home

Can we go back to the days our love was strong?
Can you tell me how a perfect love goes wrong?
Can somebody tell me how to get things back
The way they used to be?
Oh God, give me a reason
I'm down on bended
Down on bended knee

Can we go back to the days our love was strong?
Can you tell me how a perfect love goes wrong?
Can somebody tell me how to get things back
The way they used to be?
Oh God, give me a reason
I'm down on bended knee

I'll never walk again
'Til you come back to me
I'm down on bended knees

[Intro:]
It's gettin' kinda dark already, should I light 'um?

Hey baby I'm ready, I'm oh so ready
I wanna make love to you, hey
Take 'em off, throw 'em down
Come here and let me feel what's in front of me
The outside world is of no concern
Just let our bodies and the candles in the room burn
With feverish passion uncontained

Feels like one of those nights
Lady, I'm in need of love in a hurry
50 candles burn bright
And all is right, as our bodies unite
Take our time, do it right

Give me your hand touch me right here
Oh so good want it more and more
Each moment your fingers linger all around
As I kiss you in the place where your composure comes undone
And your mind runs
We'll make love 'til the sun completely rises
Come play with me
Let me be the toy
That fulfills your needs
'Cause I'm yours tonight and you're all mine, roll with me
Don't be afraid let the feeling take you away
To a world of ecstasy
Where all you got to do is be free and give your all and all

Feels like one of those nights
Lady, I'm in need of love in a hurry
50 candles burn bright
And all is right, as our bodies unite
Take our time, do it right

[Rap:]
Come and get this, waited all my life for your touch and soft kiss
And life will never be the same, while ya moan and groan
I hear your voice call my name
Holding your body like a plastic molding
Your soul I'll be controlling
As the candles burn, we toss and turn
From night to day, all our pleasures we learn
Come and play with me tonight's our night baby,
50 candles burn bright
Make love to me
Hold on tight
It's going to be a bumpy ride

Feels like one of those nights
Lady, I'm in need of love in a hurry
50 candles burn bright
And all is right, as our bodies unite
Take our time, do it right

We don't even talk anymore
And we don't even know what we argue about
Don't even say I love you no more
Cause sayin' how we feel is no longer allowed
Some people will work things out
And some just don't know how to change

Let's don't wait till the water runs dry
We might watch our whole lives pass us by
Let's don't wait till the water runs dry
We'll make the biggest mistake of our lives
Don't do it baby

Now they can see the tears in our eyes
But we deny the pain that lies deep in our hearts
Well maybe that's a pain we can't hide
Cause everybody knows that we're both torn apart
Why do we hurt each other
Why do we push love away

Let's don't wait till the water runs dry
We might watch our whole lives pass us by
Let's don't wait till the water runs dry
We'll make the biggest mistake of our lives
Don't do it baby

Yesterday
Hoy me siento lejos del ayer
Tantas cosas han cambiado que
Quisiera estar en el ayer

Yo perdi la mitad de todo lo que fui
La memoria vuela sobre mi
Y en ayer quiero vivir
Ella se marcho
Yo ne se muy bien por que
Fue alguin desliz que acabo con el ayer

Yesterday
Al amor jugamos sin perder
Hoy yo busco desaparecer
Quisiera estar en el ayer

Ella se marcho
Yo ne se muy bien por que
Fue alguin desliz que acabo con el ayer

Yesterday
Al amor jugamos sin perder
Hoy yo busco desaparecer
Quisiera estar en el ayer
