Tearin' It Up lyrics - Chaka Khan

I'm gonna make you love
If it's the last thing I do
I'm gonna make you with
That there were two of you

I think you're gonna need help
'Cause I've been saving my love
For nobody but you
I'll make you melt
Like the snow in the summer
'Cause you're blowin' my mind
I know it's gonna be all better
When you touch me (oh, oh, give it to me baby)
Love can't wait, You'll never get away

[Chorus:]
Tearin' it up, tearin' it up
You were tearin' it up
Tearin' it up, tearin' it up
You were tearin' it up

I'm gonna make you love
If it's the last thing I do
I'm gonna make you with
That there were two of you

Sittin' here checkin' you out
I know your moves
And all your grooves
And there's no doubt
That you give off a love vibe
That's all the way live
It's a woman's perogative to change her mind
Hurry up, please stop wastin' time
Just give up, you'll never get away

[Chaka:] I'm gonna make you love me
[Male:] girl, I'm gonna make you love me too
[Chaka:] I'm gonna make you love me, boy

[Chorus]

I know you can make it,
Keep holdin' on because times is hard
It feels so good
To get close to you, can't give it up
Let me satisfy your life's desires
I wanna take you there
Opportunity knocks with passion and emotion

[Male:] I'm gonna make you love me
[Chaka:] Ooh, say it again and again and again and again
[Male:] I'm gonna make you love me if it's the last thing I do
[Chaka:] I'm gonna make you wish that there were two of you

Gonna make you love me, babe, Gonna make you love me (7x)
Gonna make you love me, babe, again and again and a-
Gonna make you love me, babe, gonna make you love me
Gonna make you love me, babe, again and again and a-

Slow Dancin' lyrics - Chaka Khan (feat. Rick James)

I catch your reflection
Through smoke filled ayes
I begin my inspection
And I'm watchin' you
Your smooth syncopation
You synthesize
Your beatin' vibration
Makes me watchin' you

[Bridge:]
(And) If I smiled at you
Would you walk away
Or would you have this dance with me

Slow dancin' (Slow dancin')
Slow dancin' (Slow dancin')
Slow dancin' (Slow dancin')
Yeah, just you and me, baby, oh babe

Something about your freaky ways
Gives me a shiver
I watch you
You're a smooth operator
With sexy eyes, in anticipation
I watch you (I watch you, too)

[Bridge]

Slow dancin' (Slow dancin')
(Slow dancin', slow dancin')
So fine (Slow dancin')
Oh baby, slow (Slow dancin')
And goin' low (Slow dancin')
Oh just you and me

Oh you dance with, oh you dance with
Oh you dance with, oh you dance with me
Just round and round, and dance slow

La la la slow, la la la dancin'

Slow dancin', slow dancin'
Slow dancin', just you and me, babe

Dance with me, dance with me, baby, oh
(Slow dancin') Let's go grindin'
Just you and me

Baby, just one slow dance
Baby, just one slow grind
Baby, let's get down low
And see what we will find
Baby, just one slow dance
Let's give it just one slow grind
Chaka just get down low
And see what we will find

[Bridge]

Dancin' (Slow dancin')
(Slow dancin', slow dancin')
Just you and me

(Slow dancin') Baby, let's dance
(Slow dancin') Baby, get slower
(Slow dancin') Try to get lower
(Slow dancin') You and me, babe
(Slow dancin') Baby, let's dance
(Slow dancin') Baby, get slower
(Slow dancin') Try to get lower

Best In The West lyrics - Chaka Khan

Best in the west, that's your name
Makin' love's your claim to fame
Better than the best, oh everyone say
How'd he learn to love that way

You're the best in the west
You're a tough sharp shooter
And you aim to win
And I wish you'd love me now
Like you did then
You're the best in the west
You're the best I've ever had
A naughty boy
And the memory of you fills me with joy
Let's do it again, let's do it again

Best in the west, when you were five
Kissed the girls and made them cry
Better than the best, oh you built your place
Lovin' is a symphony

You're the best in the west
You've been a ladies man with class
Since way back when
And you stand so high above all the men
You're the best in the west
And your lovin' seemed to fell me
From the start
And the fantasy of you is in my heart
Let's do it again, let's do it again
Let's do it again, (Ooh let's do it, baby)
Let's do it again
(The way you do it, baby's good to me yeah)

Well I'm pretty damn good myself
But I must confess
when it comes to makin' love
Baby, your the best in the west

[Chorus:]
Best in the west, that's your name
When you gonna love me again
Let's do it again

[Chorus]

Better than the best, everyone say
How'd he learn to love that way
Let's do it again

[Chorus]

Better than the best and everyone say
How'd he learn to love that way
Best in the west, that's your name
Makin' love's your claim to fame
Let's do it again
Better than the best and everyone say
When you gonna love me again
Let's do it again
Better than the best and everyone say
How'd he learn to love that way
Let's do in again

Got To Be There lyrics - Chaka Khan

Got to be there
Be there in the mornin'

Got to be there
Be there in the mornin'
When he says hello to the world
Got to be there
Be there bringin' good times
And show him that I'm his girl
Oh what a feeling there'll be
The moment I know he loves me

[Chorus:]
'Cause when I look in his eyes
I realize
I need him sharin' the world beside me
That's why I've got to be there

Be there in the mornin'
And welcomin' him into the world
And show him that I'm his girl
When he says hello world - world
(The moment, the moment I know he loves me)
He loves me

[Chorus]

Be there when the love begins
And that's everywhere he goes
I've got to be there so he knows
That when he's with me he's home
He's home

Got to be there, to be there

Be Bop Medley lyrics - Chaka Khan

Ooh baby, ooh baby
Ooh baby, ooh baby
You've got me reelin'
You've got me swingin' to your melody

Oh yeah

I never knew a man
Could love me this way
I never knew it
Now I'm happy to say
I'm gonna get some reelin'
I want a lovin' feelin'
Baby, how you blew me away
It must have been love
Wasn't ready for the heavy way
It took me by surprise
Now I'm lovin' and it feels okay
We let our lovin' take us far away

Ooh baby, ooh baby
Ooh baby, ooh baby
You've got me reelin'
You've got me swingin' to your melody

I'm in a hot house

Come on, sailor

I'm calling you, I am calling you
I wanna know do you have to go
Come on, sailor
I'm calling you, I am calling you
Calling you

Come on, baby
Come, I'll be waiting right here
Anyone's love for a price can be found
Come home with me, baby

Casbah

I'm calling you, I am calling you
I wanna know do you have to go
Come on, sailor
I'm calling you, I am calling you
Calling you

Calling you, calling you, hey you

Oh baby, what a feel in the flight
Come on, sailor

What did you say, what did you say
I wanna play, I wanna play
Why don't you stay, why don't you stay
Don't run away, don't run away

What did you say, what did you say
I wanna play, I wanna play

Play your sax for your lady
I'm makin' tracks with you, baby
Play your horn for me, baby
Heaven has hit me
Blind me completely

Ooh baby, ooh baby
Ooh baby, ooh baby

I'll drag the phone right around
There is no, not a sweeter melody
I'll drag the long night around
There is no, not a nicer melody

Mi corazãn
I didn't know how to say (Con alma)
Ooh I love you
Oh what a price to pay
Ooh this time
You'll never run away
You and me, baby

Takin' giant steps, takin' giant steps

Giant steps, giant step, giant steps

Twisted lyrics - Chaka Khan

Here, certified unsound I feel like you
There's someone I've found, so far he's true

Out of me there's a voice which keeps calling
I'm hiding alone, crazy I know, and I am
Tied to your strings and twisted
I'm just waiting to show the others who know
And I am tied to your strings and twisted

So medication still the devil in me
So into make believe, your smile I see

Out of me there's a voice which keeps calling
I'm hiding alone, crazy I know, and I am
Tied to your strings and twisted
I'm just waiting to show the others who know
That I am tied to your strings and twisted

Hold me in this tiny room sedated here I'll stay
Next to me, I beg of you don't throw the key away

Out of me there's a voice which keeps calling
I'm hiding alone, crazy I know, and I am
Tied to your strings and twisted
I'm just waiting to show the others who know
That I am tied to your strings and twisted

I'm hiding alone, crazy I know, and I am
Tied to your strings and twisted
I'm just waiting to show all the others who know
That I am tied to your strings and twisted

I'm going crazy, boy, look out
(Tied to your strings and twisted) Look out, boy

So Not To Worry lyrics - Chaka Khan

You think she's really waiting
I heard a different tune
You'll let her think he wants her
And I think she wants him too

What she don't know won't hurt her
She's got her secrets too
She doesn't know about me
The feeling's up to you, up to you

So not to worry
Don't be afraid, not tonight
It's all the same, love
I'm in no hurry and
If we make love, it's alright

Alright (tonight)
Alright (tonight)

Bring back the day I met you
We knew it then, my love
You smiled goodbye, then told me
That your time was not your own
I see you five years later
Two thousand miles away
You left her for a mission
And I left him for the same
For the same

So not to worry
Don't be afraid, not tonight
It's all the same, love
I'm in no hurry and
If we make love, it's alright

Well, well, well, well
My, my, my, my

So much for being faithful
We've let them down again
I wasn't very helpful
And you didn't stop my hand
Stop my hand, oh

So not to worry
When we made love, it felt right
It's all the same, love (all the same, oh)
We didn't hurry (we didn't hurry)
If when we made love, it felt right, alright
So not to worry
If we make love, it's alright

(Alright) It's alright, tonight's the night
That you're gonna love me babe (aw, feels so good)
(Alright) It's alright, tonight's the night
That you're gonna love me babe (aw, it feels so good)
(Alright) It's alright, tonight's the night
That you're gonna love me babe (oooh, feels so good babe)
(Alright) It's alright, tonight's the night
That you're gonna love me babe (alright, feels so good)
(Alright) It's alright, tonight's the night
That you're gonna love me babe (feels so good)
(Alright) It's alright, tonight's the night
That you're gonna love me babe (oh, feels so good)
(Alright) It's alright, tonight's the night
That you're gonna love me babe
(Alright) It's alright, tonight's the night
That you're gonna love me babe (aw, it feels so good, feels so good)
(Alright) It's alright, tonight's the night
That you're gonna love me babe (oh, it feels so good, baby babe)
(Alright) It's alright, tonight's the night
That you're gonna love me babe (oh it's alright)
(Alright) It's alright, tonight's the night
That you're gonna love me babe
(Alright) It's alright, tonight's the night
That you're gonna love me babe (ohh)

Pass It On (A Sure Thing) (Pasa Lo Esta Seguro) lyrics - Chaka Khan

A brand new meaning
For what's goin' on today
I felt it comin'
Thought I'd pass it on your way
In case your head's in the mighty fog
There's a thought, a show in the dark, I say

Pass it on, sure thing, pass it on
Pass it on, sure thing, pass it on

Pass it on, a sure thing, baby

Good things coming
If you care to wait your turn
Heart's desire
With enough here left to burn
Because the love's all around you see
If you're lovin' you will receive, I say

Pass it on, sure thing, pass it on
Pass it on, sure thing, pass it on

A sure thing, baby
Make it feel good tonight
Make it feel real good
Baby, baby, baby, baby
Well, well, well, well

Just imagine havin' to know it all
No more guessin'
'Cause your left hand's in the thought
Consult me when you need a friend
Pass it on and you're feelin' lost, well

Pass it on, sure thing, pass it on
Pass it on, sure thing, pass it on
Pass it on, sure thing, pass it on
Pass it on, sure thing, pass it on
Pass it on, sure thing, pass it on

Them There Eyes lyrics - Chaka Khan

I fell in love with you
the first time I looked into...them there eyes

You've got a certain way,
a cute way of flirtin with...them there eyes

They make me feel so happy
they make me feel so blue

I'm fallin', no stallin'
Fallin' in a great big way for you

My heart is jumpin'
You started something with...them there eyes

You better look out
Little brown eyes, if you're wise

They sparkle, they bubble
Gonna get you in a whole lotta trouble
OOooo baby... them there eyes...

All Of Me lyrics - Chaka Khan

All of me
Why not take all of me
Can't you see

How can I go on dear without you
You took the part that once was my heart
So why not take all of me

Can't you see
I'm no good without you

How can I go on dear without you
You took the part that once was my heart
So why not take all of me

I Mean You lyrics - Chaka Khan

If you have to do me this way

I Love You Porgy lyrics - Chaka khan

I want to stay here
But I ain't worthy
You are to descent to understand
For when I see him
He hypnotizes me
When he takes hold of me
With his hard hand

Someday, I know he's comin' back
To call me
He's gonna handle me and hold me so
It's gonna be like dyin', Porgy
Deep inside me,
But when he calls I have to go

I love you Porgy
Don't let him take me
Don't let him handle me
And drive me mad
If I can stay here, and you would keep me

I love you Porgy
Don't let him take me
Don't let him handle me
And drive me mad
If you can keep me, I wants to stay here

With you forever and I'd be glad
I love you Porgy

Take The A-Train lyrics - Chaka khan

Hurry, hurry, hurry
Take the A-train
To find the quickest way to get to Harlem

If you should take the A-train
You'll find you get right where you goin'
If you hurry

Hurry, hurry, hurry
Night's coming
Can't you hear the rails a-humming

If you should take the A-train
You'll find to get away
... with a hurry

If you should take the A-train
You'll find you get right where you goin'
If you hurry

Hurry, hurry, hurry
Night's coming

I Hear Music lyrics - Chaka khan

I hear music
Mighty fine music
The murmor of the morning breeze up there
The rattle of the milkman on the stair

Sure that's music
Mighty fine music
The singing of the sparrow in the sky
The perking of the coffee right nearby

That's my baby's melody
When you my angel holding me

I hear music
Mighty fine music
And anytime I think my world is wrong
I get me out of bed and sing this song

That's my favorite melody
When you ma angel holding me

I hear music
Mighty fine music
And anytime I think my world is wrong

High Wire (The Aerialist) lyrics - Chaka Khan

Up on the wire
I like to climb and play with the sky
The people far below
The air is clear
And I can't receive
The whole world is smiling
Life is so blind
And when you dare to go up in the air
And leave the earth up behind you
As I step and leap into a space beyond
Up high for a moment
Alive and so afraid but alive
As I push against the sky
And my heart is open wide
Be a term ... to join
When you can raise the edge of the sky
Life seem tense and strong
It's not to long before you run
Beyond your horizons
Up on the wire
The line is thin and you must have ... against the sky
So precising
But life is to go on as far as you can see
Up high for a moment
Alive and so afraid but alive
And the wires disappear
Up on the wire
I like to climb and play with the sky
The people far below
The air is clear
And I can't receive
The whole world is smiling
Life is so blind
And when you dare to go up in the air
And leave the earth up behind you
As I step ............. leavin to a space .... just for a moment
Alive and so afraid
But alive
As I push against the sky
And my heart is open wide

All Of Me (Alternate Take) lyrics - Chaka Khan

All of me
Why not take all of me
Can't you see
I'm no good without you
Take my lips
I want to loose them
Take my arms
I'll never use them
Your goodbye left me with eyes that cry
How can I go on dear without you
You took the part that once was my heart
So why not take all of me

All of me
Why not take all of me
Can't you see
I'm no good without you
Take my heart
I'll never use them
Take my lips
[...]
Your goodbye left me with eyes that cry
How can I go on dear without you
You took the part that once was my heart
So why not take all of me

Spring Can Really Hang You Up The Most lyrics - Chaka Khan

Once I was a sentimental thing
Throw my heart away each spring
Now a spring romance
Hasn't got a chance
Promised my first dance to winter
All I've got to show's a splinter
For my little fling

Spring, this year has got me feeling like a horse
That never left the post
I lay in my room
Starring up at the ceiling
Spring can really hang you up the most

Morning kiss wakes trees and flower
And to them my life
To drink a toast I walk in the park
Just to kill those lonely hours
Spring can really hang you up the most

All afternoon
Those birds tweet-a-tweet I know their tune
This is love this is it
Heard it before
And I know the score
And I decide that love is a bore
Love seem sure around the new year
Now it's April

Love is just a ghost
Spring arrived on time
But what became of you, dear
Spring can really hang you up the most
Spring can really hang you up the most

Spring is here
There's no mistaken
Robins build their nest from coast to coast
My heart tries the same
So they wont hear it breaking
Spring can really hang you up the most

College boys are riding somewhere
... tender passion there it grows
But I'm on the shelf with last years easter bonnet
Spring can really hang you up the most

Love came my way
I'm holding the last
We had our day
Now that's all in the past
Spring came along
A season of song
For Love's sweet promise
But something went wrong
Doctor's once prescribed a tonic
Sulfur and molasses was the dose
Didn't help me a bit
My condition must be chronic
Spring can really hang you up the most

All alone, the party's over
Winter was a gracious host
But when you keep praying
For snow to hide the clover
Spring can really hang you up the most

We Can Work It Out lyrics - Chaka Khan

Life is very short
And there's no time
For fussing and fighting
So I'll ask you once again

Try to see it my way
Do I have to keep on talking
Until I can't go on
Boy you see it your way
You run the risk of knowing
That our love will soon be gone

We can work it out
We can work it out

Hear what you're saying
You can get it wrong
And still you think that it's alright
Hear what I'm saying
We can work it out
And when it's straight, we'll say good night

We can work it out
We can work it out

Life is very short
And there's no time
For fussing and fighting
I've have ways thought
That it's a crime
So I will ask you once again

Try to see it my way
Only time will tell if I am right
Or if I am wrong
Boy you see it your way
There's a chance that we might fall apart
Before too long

We can work it out
We can work it out

Life is very short
And there's no time, no time
For fussing and fighting
I've have ways thought
That it's a crime (dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty)
So I will ask you once again

What Cha' Gonna Do For Me lyrics - Chaka Khan

All night and day
Just chippin' away
It's all in a day's work
Tryin' hard to defend
The time that I spend alone

The crown that you lose
Exploiting the blues
Won't get the job done
As hard as it bites
I'm keepin' my sights on you

[Chorus:]
What cha' gonna do for me
What cha' gonna do for me
What cha' gonna do for me
When the chips are down

In the cool of the night
When nothing seems right
The feeling can take you
Strange as it seems
You make your own dreams come true

If you try to conceal
The way that you feel
You're asking for trouble
Just as sure as I cry
I'm keeping my eye on you

[Chorus 2x]

You don't have to tell me
I'm to blame for this
'Cause what you hold against me

I Know You, I Live You lyrics - Chaka Khan

It's not difficult
For me to say I love you
It wouldn't be difficult
If you would say the same
And believe me when I tell you
That I know you very well
I know you like I know my name

I think that I have met you
Somewhere in my dreams
I may never have met you at all
And I know you must be thinking,
"What a silly girl"
I know your every thought and scheme

I wake up to the feeling each morning
I go to bed to it at night
I know you, I live you

[Chorus:]
Like I feel a song in the morning
Like I see the moon at night
I know you as if I've known you all my life
I know you, I live you

One day you'll realize
That we're not strangers
If you open up your eyes
You'll know me too
And see that we were
Meant to be together, my dear
And all the rest is up to you

Like I feel a song in the morning
Like I see the moon at night
I know you as if I've known you all my life
I know you, I know you
Like I feel a song in the morning
Like I see the moon at night
I think I know you more than you know yourself
I know you, I live you
Know you, live you
Know you, live you
Know you

And without me you'd stumble
And without you I'd fall
Without each other we would not be at all

Any Old Sunday lyrics - Chaka Khan

Spendin' all my time
With you on my mind
I think it's time that we made the score
Oh it makes me crazy
This anticipating
Cause I'm loving you more and more

One by one the lonely hours slip away
I'd like to be your fun and games
Brighten up your day, yeah yeah yeah yeah

[Chorus:]
Any old sunday, any old sunday will do (so what are you waiting for?)
Any old sunday, any old sunday will do (so what are you waiting for?)

I'm waitin' for the time
To feel your arms around me (so what are you waiting for?)
Time keeps passing
I'm yours for the asking
Because our love is an open door
Stop cultivating, stop hesitating
No more questions in my mind
You can be so lovely
Our love will be like honey to the bee
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

We Got Each Other lyrics - Chaka Khan

[Chorus:]
Walkin' hand and hand
As only lovers can
You must understand
We've got each other
They can scream and fuss
It won't bother us
And that is because
We've got each other

I can recall memories we shared
Such love, none other could compare
Do you remember when you were loving me?
Holding me? How could this love not be?

[Chorus]

Lost in dreams, I spend the hours
Scared in the dark, in a room that once was ours
Do you remember when you were loving me?
Holding me? How could this love not be?

We are one sharing each other's dreams
With a love that only we could bring

I've got you (I've got you)
We've got each other
I've got you (I've got you)
We've got each other
I've got you (I've got you)
We've got each other
I've got you (I've got you too)
We've got each other
I've got you (I've got you)
We've got each other
I've got you (I've got you too)
We've got each other
We've got each other

We've got stride for stride
Movin' side by side
With a strength and pride
We've got each other
They can scream and fuss
It won't break our trust
What we've got is us
We've got each other
We've got each other
We've got each other

And The Melody Still Lingers On (Night In Tunisia) lyrics - Chaka Khan

A long time ago in the 40's
Dizzy and Bird gave us this song
They called it "A Night In Tunisia"
And the melody still lingers on

It was new and very strange
Blew the squares right off the stage
Few could play along
But the melody still lingers on

Max and Miles to name just two
Together they grew
The music was young and strong
And the melody still lingers on

They paved the way for generations
From Coltrane to Stevie
No one could stop the winds of change
Without them where'd we be?

The Duke and the Prez were there before
The past you can't ignore
The torch is lit, we'll keep the flame
And the melody remains the same

In the 40's
A night in tunisia
In the 40's
A night in tunisia
In the 40's
A night in tunisia
In the 40's

Night Moods lyrics - Chaka Khan

[Chorus:]
Night moods, I love your night moods
Night moods, You've got the right moods

When you're lying here beside me
Ooh you take my breath away
Baby I feel such love inside me
I'm so glad you're going to stay
Night moods, night moods
Got a need as deep as a canyon
I'm so glad I found my soul companion
I love your night moods
I'm in the right mood
I love your night moods

Night time is the right time
Night time is the one time I'm loving you
Loving you

All day long I'm thinking of
And I just can't wait 'til the sun goes down
I can't help it, how I love it
Count the moments 'til you come 'round
Night moods, night moods
Ain't no use in talkin' about it
All I know is that I can't live without it
I love your night moods
I'm in the right mood
I love your night moods

Night time is the right time
Right now is the one time I'm close to you
Close to you

Got a need as deep as a canyon
I'm so glad I found my soul companion
Night moods, I love your night moods

Night moods (I love it, I love it, I love it, I love it at night)
Night moods (I love it, I love it, I love it, I love it at night)
Night moods (I love it, I love it, I love it, I love it at night)
Night moods (I love it, I love it, I love it, I love it at night)

Heed The Warning lyrics - Chaka Khan

There are so many things in life to know
Cause someone says it's right don't make it so
This is someone somewhere who's taking notes
There's someone telling lies sowing wild oats
When you are moving fast, you can succeed
Just how long can you last at twice the speed

[Chorus:]
Here's a warning: two wrongs don't make a right
Heed the warning, and everything will be alright

I'll keep good meter, and I'll take my time
I'll try to stay in beat and live in rhyme
I know from love I came, to love I'll go
I'll live and learn and love and try to grow
When you are moving fast, you can succeed
Just how long can you last at twice the speed

Father He Said lyrics - Chaka Khan

Father's waiting 'round the corner
Ticket in his hand
Wants to help his daughter
Protect and understand
Daughter's needing some security
The comfort of a man
Can't face the pain of losing
She's afraid to love again
Searching for her father's words
She remembered

[Chorus:]
My father he said, "don't be misled."
My father he said, "is heart in your hands?"

(Way far, far away)
Daughter's feelin' kinda shaky
Heartache and trouble everywhere
There ain't no love she's looking
For someone who cares
Searching for her father's words
She remembered

[Chorus]

(Take the train far, cooling down)
Daughter's waiting at the station
Got a ticket in her hand
Bound for her destination
She'll try to love again
Searching for her father's words
She remembered

[Chorus]

Father, father, father

[Chorus]

Fate lyrics - Chaka Khan

When you walked into my lonely life tonight
I saw my destiny, I saw eternity tonight
And the moment I held you I knew it
What we do is decided before we do it

[Chorus:]
Fate, this could only be
Fate, I never thought I'd believe in
Fate, now I understand
It's part of the plan
I was meant to be your woman

Time stood still, and we lost on words to say
And though the people stared, they seemed a million miles away
Oh we knew it was love we were feeling
We were destined to give it a whole new meaning

[Chorus]

In my heart I feel I've loved you all my life
I was in the dark, but now I think I've seen the light
I rang like a bell with your laughter
Something tells me I'll love you forever and ever

Fate (this could only be)
It was fate (this could only be)
It's part of the plan
I was meant to be your woman
(It's part of the plan)
I'll love you forever and ever
