Hello Happiness lyrics - Chaka Khan
Music makes me sing
Goodbye sadness
Hello happiness
Music makes me sing
Goodbye sadness
Hello happiness
Music makes me sing
Goodbye silence
Hello happiness (hello!)
Music makes me sing
Goodbye silence (I'm so happy, yeah)
Hello happiness
It moves my body
Yet frees my mind
There ain't no question
Ooh, it makes me high
If you're feelin' unsure
I've got your cure
This music is yours
And this beat is mine (hello)
It moves my body
Yet frees my mind
There ain't no question (I'm so happy)
Ooh, it makes me high
If you're feelin' unsure
I've got your cure
This music is yours
And this beat is mine
Music makes me sing
Goodbye silence (Hello happiness)
Hello happiness
Music makes me sing
Goodbye silence (Make you dance... baby)
Hello happiness (I wanna dance tonight)
Music makes me sing
Goodbye silence
Hello happiness
Take me back to the dancefloor
So I can dance away my blues
Love is what I'm here for
So don't give me no bad news
Take me back to the dancefloor
So I can dance away my blues
Love is what I'm here for
So don't give me no bad news
It moves my body
Yet frees my mind (Goodbye!)
There ain't no question (Goodbye, sadness)
Ooh, it makes me high
If you're feelin' unsure
I've got your cure (I wanna dance, wanna dance)
This music is yours (Wanna dance, wanna dance)
And this beat is mine
It moves my body
Yet frees my mind
There ain't no question
Ooh, it makes me high (To the dance, to the dancefloor!)
If you're feelin' unsure (To the dancefloor, baby!)
I've got your cure
This music is yours
And this beat is mine
(I can dance away my blues)
Dance away my blues
I wanna dance away my blues
Music makes me sing
Goodbye sadness
Hello happiness
Music makes me sing
Goodbye sadness
Hello happiness

Too Hot lyrics - Chaka Khan
Lord, I'm gettin' tired of bein' so lonely
I've got the fire inside that burns more than it likes
I've got a hunger that just won't let go
It's ridin' my soul, I can't take it no more
Who's gonna feed my fire
When I need it to sweeten up
And if you think you're man enough for me
Then, baby, do you like it rough?
I'm too hot to touch
Too hot, I'm too hot to touch
Too hot, I'm too hot
Too hot, too hot
Baby, are you man enough?
Too hot
I'm in the back
Seems like a dream, but it really was a nightmare (woo-hoo, woo-hoo)
Been fooled before
And I'll never do it again (woo-hoo, woo-hoo)
I'm a strong woman and I've got my own
I'm in control, I need somebody to hold
Who's gonna feed my fire
Need a man who likes it rough
And if you think you're man enough for me
Then, baby, is it hot enough?
I'm too hot, too hot to touch
Too hot to touch
All I need is someone
Too hot
All I want is someone to love
Too hot to touch
Too hot, too hot
Too hot to touch, too hot
Too hot, too hot
Too hot to touch, too hot
Too hot, too hot
Too hot to touch
Too hot, too hot
Too hot to touch
Too hot to touch
I'm too hot to touch
Too hot to touch
I'm so hot to touch, too hot
Too hot, too hot
Too hot, too hot
Who's gonna feed my fire
When I need it to sweeten up
And if you think you're man enough for me
Then, baby, do you like it rough?
I'm too hot to
Too hot, too hot
Too hot, too hot
Too hot, too hot
Baby, are you man enough?

Isn't That Enough lyrics - Chaka Khan
When you look into my eyes
Baby, when you speak my name
I can feel it in my heart
My whole life has changed
Givin' me your heart
Give me your phone
And your mind
Isn't that fine?
Isn't that enough? Isn't that enough?
Isn't that enough? Isn't that enough?
Well, they say that you don't want me
You don't really care
But when nobody love me
Baby, do a pair
(Do you wrong, do you wrong)
They say run along
(Do you wrong, do you wrong)
I say no, 'cause he keeps me warm at night
(Do you wrong, do you wrong)
Switch him, do him wrong
(Do you wrong, do you wrong)
They don't know, and it makes me feel so wrong
Isn't that enough? Isn't that enough?
Baby I'm in love, yeah
Give me your heart, give me your soul (Isn't that enough)
No, I don't care what they say about us
No, I don't care 'cause baby, they don't understand us
I don't care what they think about me
'Cause you make me, oh, you make me so happy, yeah
Isn't that enough? Isn't that enough?
Baby, baby
Isn't that enough? (Yeah, ooh-ooh-ooh) Isn't that enough?
Isn't that enough?...

Oh, my, what a sweet surprise
I'm so surprised by your heart and your mind
And I spy, somethin' in your eye

Ain't Nobody lyrics - Hard Lights, Chaka Khan & Lotus
I've been waitin' for you, it's been so long
I knew just what I would do, when I heard your song
Filled my heart with your kiss, you gave me freedom
You knew I could not resist, I needed someone
And now we're flyin' through the stars
I hope this night lasts forever
Ain't nobody (nobody)
Loves me better (love me better)
Makes me happy
Makes me feel this way (nobody)
Ain't nobody (ain't nobody)
Loves me better than you
Ain't nobody (nobody)
Loves me better (love me better)
Makes me happy
Makes me feel this way (nobody)
Ain't nobody (ain't nobody)
Loves me better than you
I wait for nighttime to come, and bring you to me
Can't believe I'm the one, I was so lonely
I feel like no one could feel, I must be dreamin'
I want this dream to be real, I need this feelin'
I make my wish upon a star
And hope this night will last forever
Oh, oh, oh
Ain't nobody (nobody)
Loves me better
Makes me happy
Makes me feel this way (nobody)
Ain't nobody
Loves me better (nobody loves me)
Ain't nobody
Ain't nobody (nobody)
Loves me better
Makes me happy
Makes me feel this way (nobody)
Ain't nobody
Loves me better (nobody loves me)
Ain't nobody
Loves me better
Ain't nobody (nobody)
Loves me better
Makes me happy
Makes me feel this way (nobody)
Ain't nobody (nobody)
Loves me better
Makes me happy
Makes me feel this way
Christmas Only Once A Year lyrics - Chaka Khan
Open hearts and signs of love and joy
For every girl and boy
How easily we lose this feeling
We're together in this happy room
Santa's coming soon
I can see it in your eyes
Let's remember the way feel tonight
The tinsel shining bright
This is how it oughta be
Hearts are bouncing to and fro
Making angels in snow
So enchanting, and I just want to know
Why should Christmas be only once a year?
Is it happiness we fear?
Let us keep the spirit ever near
End up giving, make it from your heart
Loving is an art
Share it now before it's gone
Just remember, the lion and the lamb
And help us understand
What we've all been doing wrong
Kitchen smells of cinnamon
Sound of bells in winter wind
So enchanting, and I just want to know
Why should Christmas be only once a year?
Is it happiness we fear?
Let us keep the spirit ever near
When it's time to go, under mistletoe
Share a kiss, make a wish, and say so
Why must Christmas be only once a year?
Is it happiness we fear?
Let us keep the spirit ever near
Christmas be only once a year?
Is it happiness we fear?
Let us keep the spirit ever near
Christmas be only once a year?
Is it happiness we fear?
Let us keep the spirit ever near
How Many Lives To Go lyrics - Chaka Khan
When darkness falls
And only madness remains
Will no one hear
The voice that cries in pain?
How many lives to go
Before it's over
How can we stand
And watch again
Remember now
We've seen it all before
The sound of hate
The monstrous face of war
How many lives to go
Before it's over
Must we allow
One sorrow more
Say a prayer, and love, to show
The heart of man, which way to go
No heart, no more
Nothing but dark despair
And empty words
Are not enough to wear
How many lives to go
Before it's over
What will it take
To lift the veil
And have to face
The shame
We almost shared
I Put A Spell On You lyrics - Chaka Khan
(originally by Nina Simone)
I put a spell on you
'Cause you're mine
You better stop the things you do
I ain't lyin'
No I ain't lyin' babe
You know I can't stand it
When you're runnin' around
And you know better daddy
'Cause you put me down
I put a spell on you
'Cause you're mine
I love you
I love you anyhow
And I don't care if you don't want me baby
I'cause 'm yours right now
I put a spell on you
'Cause you're... you're mine
You're mine
I'm Every Woman (short remake for International Women's Day) lyrics - Chaka Khan & Idina Menzel
I'm every woman
It's all in me
Anything I want to do, I'll do it naturally
I'm every woman
It's all in me
I can change my thoughts right now
Every one from A to Z
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa
I can cast a spell
Secrets I won't tell
Mix a special brew
Put a fire inside of you
Anytime you feel danger or fear
Then instantly, I will appear, 'cause
I'm every woman
It's all in me
Anything I want to do
I'll do it naturally
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa
I can sense my needs
Like rain onto the seeds
I can make a rhyme of confusion in my mind!
And when it comes down to love, yeah
I've got it, I've got it, I've got it, got it
'Cause I'm every woman
It's all in me
Anything I want to do
I'll do it naturally
I'm every woman
It's all in me I can change my thoughts right now
Every one from A to Z
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa
I ain't bragging
'Cause I'm the one
You just ask me
Ooh, it shall be done
And don't bother
To compare
'Cause I've got it
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
I'm every woman

I'm every woman
I'm every woman
I'm every woman
It's Not Over lyrics - Chaka Khan (feat. LeCrae)
Know that you got problems
Feels like you're living on borrowed time
You think that you can solve them
You can still get heaven on the line
I'ma light a candle
Show you you can handle
Anything that takes your breath away
So don't you be nervous
We are still in service
By your head, it might be time to pray
(Can't stop now)
No runnin' away
You got some living to do
(Can't stop now)
It's never too late
You got to prove it
It's not over, over
It's not over, over
(It's not over)
It's not over, over
(It's not over)
It's not over, over
(Over)
Searching for a miracle
See it if you open up your eyes
Rushing like a waterfall
Cleanses you and bathes you in your life
I'ma light a candle
Show you you can handle
Anything that takes your breath away
So don't you be nervous
We are still in service
By your head, it might be time to pray
(Can't stop now)
No runnin' away
You got some living to do
(Can't stop now)
It's never too late
You got prove it to you
It's not over, over
It's not over, over
(You're not alone)
It's not over, over
(Over)
It's not over, over
Yeah, I know what they told you
But hold on, ya, it ain't over
Your heart's hard tryin' to back it down
But you done come too far to start backing now and
You probably got a whole lot of questions
But sometimes not knowing is a blessing
So hold on, pray hard
The sun rise with a new great start
The world is yours, don't be afraid
Just lift your heart and walk this way
Believe me, there will come a day
But not today, no, not today
(Can't stop now)
No runnin' away
You got some living to do
(Can't stop now)
Never too late
You got to prove it
It's not over, over
It's not over, over
(It's not over)
It's not over, over
It's not over, over
Over
Over, over, over, over, over
Over
Over, over, over, over, over
Over
Love Me Still lyrics - Chaka Khan
(from "Clockers" soundtrack)
Here is my hand for you to hold
Here's a part of me they have not sold
I've wandered far, I've had my fill
I need you now, do you love me still?
Only you have seen the hidden part of me
Call me fool hearted if you will
I loved you then, do you love me still?
So many smiles and lies surround me
Empty expectations, faceless fears
Sometimes this life is a bitter pill
I love you now, do you love me still?
You have been mine since time untold
Our love is immortal, don't you know?
Others will come and they will go
But I love you young and I love you old
Only you have seen the other side of me
Call me naive, I think you will
I loved you then, do you love me still?
Here are the eyes that only see you
Here's the mouth that only calls your name
Here is the song they cannot kill
I love you now, do you love me still?

Own The Night lyrics - Chaka Khan
(from "Miami Vice" soundtrack)
Feeling the heat
I can't keep
The pressure off me
Hear the man say
Earn your pay
Or I'll let you go today
But that's not for me
I was born to be alive
Not livin' to survive
Come closer to me, baby
Make me believe it, I can
Own the night
Reach up and touch the light
Own the night
You make me come alive
I own the night
Here in the dark
Turn it on
Love me forever like this
Baby don't stop
Make it hot
I want to taste your burn again
Take me away
To a place I've never known
Livin' right down to the bone
Closer to me baby
Make me believe it, I can
Own the night
Reach up and touch the light
(Love still shines)
Own the night
You make me come alive
I own the night
You make me feel
I own the night
Own the night
Touch the light
(Love still shines)
Own the night
Raspberry lyrics - Chaka Khan
I remember as the years pass
Someone I once knew
And pastures filled with green grass
Skies that were so blue
That's when I met you
And everything is changing
Nothing stays the same
Life needs rearranging
Since the day you walked away
And took my heart with you
No one can love me
The way that you do
Please don't tell me our love is through
Darlin' take me back
To the good old days
Back when we lived
With love and passion
I know someday I'll see you again
Just like those raspberries
That sway so gently in the wind
Forever memories
There's a river overflowing
And it's running through my soul
I don't know where it's going
But I know I need to find
My way back home again
No one can love me
The way that you do
Please don't tell me our love is through
Darlin' take me back
To the good old days
Back when we lived
On love and passion
I know someday I'll see you again
Just like those raspberries
That sway gently in the wind
Forever memories
(Forever and ever)
(Forever and ever)
(Forever and ever)
Darlin' take me back
To the good old days
Back when we lived
On love and passion
I know someday I'll see you again
Just like those raspberries
That sway gently in the wind
Darlin' take me back
To the good old days
Back when we lived
On love and passion
I know someday I'll see you again
Just like those raspberries
That sway gently in the wind
Forever
Darlin' take me back
To the good old days
Back when we lived
On love and passion
I know someday I'll see you again...
Shining Star lyrics - Chaka Khan
(originally by Earth, Wind & Fire)
When you wish upon a star
Your dreams will take you very far
But when you wish upon a dream
Life ain't always what it seems
What'd you see on a night so clear
In the sky so very dear
You're a shining star
No matter who you are
Shining bright to see
What you could truly be (what you could truly be)
Shining star come in to view
Shine its watchful light on you
Give you strength to carry on
Make your body big and strong
Born a man child of the sun
Saw my work had just begun
Found I had to stand alone
Bless it now I've got my own
So, if you find yourself in need
Why don't you listen to these words of heed
Be a giant grain of sand
Words of wisdom, yes I can
You're a shining star
No matter who you are
Shining bright to see
What you could truly be
You're a shining star
No matter who you are
Shining bright to see
What you could truly be
You're a shining star
No matter who you are
Shining bright to see
What you could truly be
Shinning star for you to see
What your life can truly be
Shinning star for you to see
What your life can truly be
Shinning star for you to see
What your life can truly be
When The Time Comes lyrics - Chaka Khan
(from "Everybody's Talking About Jamie" soundtrack)
I'm a-ready when the time comes
I'm a-ready when the time comes
My opportunity to shine comes
I'm a-ready when the time comes
Look at me, I'm back again
Feeling the joy that a new day can bring
There's new music, there's new sounds
All the excitement got me spinning 'round
So I'm gonna seize the, seize the day
I ain't gonna let it get away
I ain't gonna let it pass me by
I've got the wings to fly
And I'm ready when the time comes
I'm a-ready when the time comes
I'm a-ready when the time comes (I'm ready)
My opportunity to shine comes
I'm a-ready when the time comes
We're on the edge of possibility
And we're gonna blaze a trail for the world to see
So when the time comes
The time comes, the time comes, I'm ready
Yeah
Oh, and each day I can't wait to see
Just what the world has in store for me, yeah
That's a joy you can't improve
When an emotion makes your body move, oh oh
Every little turn and twirl and twist
Baby, it is too hard to resist
And you hear the song that starts to play
Saying today, today
Ready when the time comes
I'm a-ready when the time comes (I'm ready)
My opportunity to shine comes
I'm a-ready when the time comes
We're on the edge of opportunity
And we're gonna blaze a trail for the world to see
So when the time comes
The time comes, the time comes, I'm ready
I'm ready
When the time comes for love
And the time comes for hope
When the time comes for friends
And the ones who helped me cope
(The times I was down and you lifted me up)
'Cause the time comes for joy
And the family I love, yeah
I'm ready when the time comes
I'm ready when the time comes
My opportunity to shine comes
Ready when the time comes
We're on the edge of opportunity
And we're gonna blaze a trail for the world to see
So when the time comes
The time comes, the time comes
When the time comes
I'm a-ready when the time comes
My opportunity to shine comes
I'm a-ready when the time comes
We're on the edge of possibility
And we're gonna blaze a trail for the world to see
So when the time comes
The time comes, the time comes
I'm ready
I'm ready
I'm ready
I'm ready, yeah, yeah
Woman Like Me lyrics - Chaka Khan
She's more than her body
More than her ass in some jeans, let's be clear
More than her makeup
More than the lace front that she chose to wear
She is your sister
She is your mother, your daughter, your girl
Better remember
It was a woman who brought you in this world
Every girl ain't a stripper or on the internet tryna hustle
Even if she was, who are you to judge? You don't even know her struggle
So watch what you say
Stones that you're throwing may come back, come back your way
She's your strength when you're weak
Without her, where would you be?
'Cause the world ain't a thing without a woman, a woman like me
She's the earth, she's the key
She's your whole life energy
'Cause the world ain't a thing without a woman, a woman, woman like me
Oh (oh)
She ain't no side piece
No mistress, no trophy you put on your shelf
Please don't mistake her
She's more than a plaything you buy with your wealth
You better respect her, the same way that you want respect for yourself
And for the record, ain't shit getting done without her help
Baby girl need a real man who gon' hold it down, fight for her
Lift her up, don't tear her down, give her real love, not control her (oh)
So watch what you say
Stones that you're throwing may come back, come back your way
She's your strength (she's your strength) when you're weak (when you're weak)
Without her, where would you be? (oh, where would you be?)
'Cause the world ain't a thing without a woman, a woman like me
She's the earth, she's the key (she's the key)
She's your whole life energy (whole life, yeah)
'Cause the world ain't a thing without a woman, a woman, woman
Woman like me
Like me
Woman like me
A woman like me
