As long as you love me

Although loneliness has always been a friend of mine
I’m leaving my life in your hands
People say I’m crazy and that I’m blind
Risking it all in a glance
How you got me blind is still a mystery
I cant get you out of my head
Dont care what is written in your history
As long as you’re here with me

Chorus
I don’t care who you are
Where you from what you did
As long as you love me
Who you are
where you’re from
Dont care what you did
As long as you love me

Every little thing that you have said and done
Feels like it’s deep within me
Doesn’t really matter if you’re on the run
It seems like we’re meant to be

Chorus

Bridge
I’ve tried to hide it so that no one knows
But I guess it shows
When you look in to my eyes
What you did and where you’re comin’ from
I dont care , as long as you love me , baby

10,000 Promises

Once we were lovers, just lovers we were
Oh , what a lie
Once we were dreamers, just dreamers we were
Oh you and I
No I see you’re just somebody who wastes all my time and money
what a lie, you and I
What about your

Chorus
Your 10,000 Promises
That you gave to me
Your 10,000 Promises
That you promised me

Once I could handle the truth
when the truth was you and I
But time after time all the promises
turned out to be all lies
Now I just see I’m somebody who wastes my time and money
What a lie, you and I
what about your

Chorus

You say I’ll take you back
But I closed the door
cuz I don’t want
10,000 more
10,000 Promises, yeah (x2)

Chorus

Once we were lovers just lovers we were
you and I, what a lie

Anywhere for you

I’d go anywhere for you
Anywhere you asked me to
I’d do anything for you
Anything you want me to

I’d walk half around the world
For just on kiss from you
Far beyond the call of love
The sun, the stars, the moon
As long as you’re love’s there to lead me
I won’t lose my way believe me
Even trough the darkest night you
know

Chorus
I’d go anywhere for you
Anywhere you asked me to
I’d do anything for you
Any thing you want me to
Your love as far as I can see
Is all I’m ever gonna need
There’s one thing for sure
I know is true
Baby, I’d go anywhere for you

I used to think that dreams were just
For sentimental fools
And I’d never find some one
Who’d give their love so true
But I knew the very minute
Couldn’t live my life without you in it
And now I want the whole wide world
To know

Chorus

Hey baby, hey baby, hey baby, oohhh

I’ll never break your heart

Spoken
Baby I know you are hurting
Right now you fell like you could never
love again
Now all I ask is for a chance
to prove that I love

From the first day
That I sow your smiling face
Honey, I knew that we would
be together forever
Ooh when I asked you out
You said no but I found out
Darling that you’d been hurt
You felt that you’d never love again
I deserve a try honey just ones
Give me a chance and I’ll prove this all wrong
You walked in, you were so quick to
judge
But honey he’s nothing like me

Chorus
I’ll never break your heart
I’ll never make you cry
I’d rather die then live without you
I’ll give you all of me
Honey that’s no lie
(2x)

As I walked by you
Will you get to know me
A little more better
Girl that’s the way love goes
And I know you are afraid
To let your feelings show
And I understand
But girl it’s time to let go
I deserve a try honey
just once
Give me a chance and I’ll prove this all
wrong
You walked in, you were so quick to
judge
But honey he’s nothing like me
Darling why can’t you see

Chorus (2x)

Bridge
No way, no how
I’ll make you cry

Quit playin’ games (with my heart)

Even in my heart I see
You’re not bein’ true to me
Deep within my soul I feel
Nothing’s like it used to be
Sometimes I wish I could turn back time
Impossible as it may seem
But I wish I could so bad baby

Chorus
Quit playin’ games with my heart
Before you tear as apart
I should’ve known from the start
Before you got in my heart

I live my life the way
To keep you comin’ back to me
Every thing I do is for you
So what is it that you can’t see
Sometimes I wish I could
Turn back time, impossible as it may
seem
But I wish I could so bad
You better quit playin’ games with my
heart

Chorus

Quit playin’ games
Baby, baby the love that we had was so
strong
Don’t leave me hangin’ here forever
Oh baby, baby this is not a lie, let’s stop
this tonight

Baby, quit playin’ games
Sometimes I wish I could
Turn back time, impossible as it may
seem
But I wish I could so bad, baby
Quit playin’ games with my heart

Nobody but you
Nobody can make me lie
Gimme one more chance to make it right
Time has come for us to reunite
Cause baby it's true

All I have to give

I don’t know what he does to make you cry
but I’ll be there to make you smile
I don’t have a fancy car,
to get to you I’d walk a thousand miles.
I don’t care if he buys you nice things
Does his gifts come from the heart - I don’t know...
But if you were my girl...
I’d make it so we’d never be apart.

Chorus
But my love is all I have to give
Without you I don’t think I can live
I wish I could give the world to you...but
Love is all I have to give

When you talk - does seems like he’s not
even listening to a word you say?
That’s okay babe, just tell me your problems
I’ll try my best to kiss them all away...
Does he leave when you need him the most?
Does his friends get all your time?
Baby please...I’m on my knees
praying for the day that you’ll be mine

Chorus

Bridge
To you...Hey Girl, I don’t want to cry no more - inside
All the money in the world could never add up to all the love
I have inside...I love you

And I will give it to you
All I can give, all I can give
Everything I have is for you
But love is all I have to give

But my love is all I have to give
Without you I don’t think I can live
I wish I cold give the world to you...but
love is all I have to give...to you

Like a child

If I could right the wrongs that made you cry
I make a promise not to say good-night
‘Cause I’m holding on
With a love so strong
And I cant take a day without you by my side

Girl if I could change
If I could change your mind
Baby you could help me wipe these tears from my eyes

Chorus
Girl don’t stop
The sun from shining down on me
‘Cause I can’t face another day without your smile
And if you take away the loving arms that suit around me
then I may break down and cry like a child

Girl I can’t belong and I wont be free
If I fail to bring your lovin’ back to me
So I’m pressin’ on
I hope you understand
There’s a broken heart that lies inside your hands

So if I could change
And it wont hurt your pride
Baby you can help me stop these tears that I cry

Chorus

Like a child
Just like a child
With the spirits running free
She showed me why
Oh, she did
Like a child (oh baby)
Just like a child
Think of what our love could be
If our heart could set us free
Like a child

If I don’t have you

Everyday Girl I wake up and pray
That you’ll come back home
And don’t take too long
Cuz since you’ve been gone
Everything’s gone all wrong
I wish you were here, holding me near
You know I’d go out of my mind
If you ever left my heart behind
So I’m begging you please
Bring your sweet love back to me

Chorus
If I don’t have you
To hold on to
I cant go on
in this world alone
Baby it’s true
If I dont have you
If you said goodbye
Girls I would die
I’m a star with no light
a day with no night
If I dont have you

Late at night, I reach to hold on tight
but you’re not here, I know you still care
And oh now I missed you’re soft and love, lovely kiss
You give to me, so tenderly
We used to feel the time would stand still
When I see you baby you will
So hurry home, you’ll make me just so

Chorus

Darlin'

Spoken
Baby
Can I talk to you
I know something's wrong
Thing's just ain't the same
But deep down inside
I know you still care
So tell me what to do to get things back
The way they used to be

If your words have meaning
If you really cared about me
Tell me why can't I find love in your heart
If you were my lover
A constant friend to me
Tell me would you turn away
From my love

Chorus
So darlin'
Tell me what to do to make things right
(x3)
For love (Tell me what to do to make things right)
For love

If your words have reason
Then they won't turn away from me
They're tryin hard to hide all truth they might say
If you listen to me girl
If you know how I'm feelin inside
Then maybe you wouldn't shut me out of your life baby

Chorus

Can't you see
All I'm asking for is a chance to prove that I love you
Can't you see
Girl you know with me is where you should be
And if by chance that we should find
That it can be
For you and I
Then girl I'll try
I'll try

Chorus

Spoken
Girl
You should know how I feel right now
There's so many ways to love
So just open your heart
And I'll find a way

Can't you see
All I'm askin' for is a chance to let me love you
Girl you know this is where you should be
And if by chance that we should find
That it can be
For you and I
Then girl I'll try
I'll try

Boys Will Be Boys

Chorus
Ohh, ohh
Boys will be boys
(x2)

You've got something
So incredible in my eyes
My heart
Starts pumpin
Whenever you're around
My whole world's upside down baby
Well I try to get closer
And you always push me away
You tell me it's much too soon
But I just can't help it
I always gotta make a play

Chorus

All My senses
They go right into over drive
Ohh my defences
Are never gonna hold
I always gotta lose control
And I hear you sayin
That you think that we should wait
But I can't hold on no more
My body's callin for you
So please don't hesitate

Chorus (x2)

Nah
Nah nah nah nah
(x2)

And I hear you sayin
That you think that we should wait
And I can't hold on any more
My body's callin for you
So please don't hesitate
My body's callin for you
So please don't hesitate

Hey Mr. DJ (keep playing this song)

Aah, Backstreet
Yes yes y'all
One time, here we go (yes yes y'all)
Ooh, ooh (2X)
yes yes y'all

I could tell when I stepped in the room
And I saw you standing there
And about by the way that you moved
I couldn't help the way I stared
There were some mysterious folks
They led me here to you
Lead me (lead me) to you (to you)
So I stood there watching
And I was hypnotised
By the rhythm of your body
And the music in your eyes
And I was lost inside a groove with you
Ooh, ooh, ooh...

Chorus
Hey Mr. DJ keep playin' that song for me
Out on the floor in my arms, she's gotta be
Let's get it on (let's get it on)
Jam all night long
Mr. DJ, Mr. DJ
Will you play it for me?

Ooh, ooh (2X) (yes yes y'all)
Now it feels like it could be romance
As we dance across the floor
Every move that your body makes
Only makes me want you more
And it seems like time's moving fast
How can we make it last?
Make it (make it) last (last, so long)
As we keep on dancing
I am hypnotised
By the rhythm of your body
And the music in your eyes
Ooh, ooh...

Chorus

Close your eyes (close your eyes)
And just imagine this alone
Let the music put you in a groove
I am lost, lost inside a groove with you
When you do the things you do
Come on and work your body, work your body

Hey Mr. DJ, jam all night long
Hey Mr. DJ play that song for me
(2X)

Chorus to fade

Keep it coming Mr. DJ... (repeat to fade)

Who Do You Love?

I know he's driving a fancy car
When you're with him you're feeling like a star
But when I'm at home alone I think only of you
So, what do you know?
How does it go?

So, how can he buy a love that's not for sale?
If you two were so in love I couldn't tell, baby
Girl, but when I'm at home alone I hear your heart, it spells
You gotta know... and how does it go?

Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Girl, I know that you are torn between what was and what might be
I wanna know, gotta know, wanna know, gotta know...
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Oh, yeah

So let's take some time out to find a way
'Cause there are so many things I need to say
(So
many things I need to say)
And when the lights are down and love is in the air
And I need to know, do you really care?
(Do you
really care, baby?)

Who do you love?
(Tell me who
do you love?)
Who do you love?
Girl, I know that you are torn between what was and what might be
But I wanna know, gotta know, wanna know, gotta know
Who do you love?
(Oh, yeah)
Who do you love?
Oh, yeah

Girl, I've found out I just can't leave you alone

I promise I will think about us, and if you're ever in need
Put your full trust in me
And I will never leave you at home

Who do you love?
(Tell me who, yeah)
Who do you love?

Girl, I know that you are torn between what was and what might be
I wanna know, gotta know, wanna know, gotta know
Who do you love?

You are my fire
The one desire
Believe when I say
I want it that way

But we are two worlds apart
Can't reach to your heart
When you say
That I want it that way

Ain't nothin' but a heartache

But I want it that way

Don't wanna hear you say...

It's not that I can't live without you
It's just that I don't even want to try

There's nothin' that I wouldn't do

The Perfect Fan

It takes a lot to know what is love
It's not the big things, but the little things
That can mean enough
A lot of prayers to get me through
And there is never a day that passes by
I don't think of you
You were always there for me
Pushing me and guiding me
Always to succeed

CHORUS
You showed me
When I was young just how to grow
You showed me
Everything that I should know
You showed me
Just how to walk without your hands
'Cause mom you always wereThe perfect fan

God has been so good
Blessing me with a family
Who did all they could
And I've had many years of grace
And it flatters me when I see a smile on your face
I wanna thank you for what you've done
In hopes I can give back to you
And be the perfect son

CHORUS - repeat

You showed me how to love
You showed me how to care
And you showed me that you would
always be there
I wanna thank you for that time
And I'm proud to say you're mine

'Cause mom you always were,
mom you always were
Mom you always were,
you know you always were
'Cause mom you always were... the perfect fan
I love you mom

Show Me The Meaning Of Being Lonely

Show me the meaning for beong lonely
So many words for the broken heart

It's hard to see in a crimson love
So hard to breathe
Walk with me, and maybe
Nights of light so soon become
Wild and free I could feel the sun
Your every wish will be doneThey tell me...

CHORUS
Show me the meaning of being lonely
Is this the feeling I need to walk with
Tell me why I can't be there where you are
There's something missing in my heart

Life goes on as it never ends
Eyes of stone observe the trends
They never say forever gaze
Guilty roads to an endless love
There's no control
Are you with me now
Your every wish will be done
They tell me

CHORUS - repeat

There's nowhere to run
I have no place to go
Surrender my heart' body and soul
How can it be you're asking me to feel the things you never show

You are missing in my heart
Tell me why I can't be there where you are

CHORUS - repeat

Larger Than Life

When you're screamin' my name, alright
But let me tell you now
There are prices to fame, alright
All of our time spent in flashes of light

CHORUS
All you people can't you see, can't you see
How your love's affecting our reality
Every time we're down
You can make it right
And that makes you larger than life

Looking at the crowd
And I see your body sway, c'mon
Wishin' I could thank you in a different way, c'mon'
Cause all of your time spent keeps us alive

CHORUS - repeat

All of your time spent keeps us alive

CHORUS - repeat

Yeah, every time we're down
Yeah, you can make it right
