1. NO ONE KNOWS HOW TO LOVE ME QUITE LIKE YOU



[Songwriters: Kelly, Robert; The Honeydrippers;]

No one knows how to love me quite the way you do

Liyah you're the only one for me
Liyah you're the only one for me
Liyah you're the only one for me
The one for me, the one for me

No one knows how to love me quite like you do
No one knows how to love me quite like you do
No one knows how to love me quite like you do
No one knows how to love me quite like you do

When it comes down to the things I like
Boy, you know just how to satisfy me
You pick me up when I'm down, you put my feet on solid ground
And you make me your first priority

Keep it comin', keep it comin', babe
'Cause I like it, 'cause I like it, babe
Don't stop 'cause no one knows

No one knows how to love me quite like you do
No one knows how to love me quite like you do
No one knows how to love me quite like you do
No one knows how to love me quite like you do

When there are clouds on a rainy day
You know how to bring sunshine to my life, yes you do
And I've never felt this way before
You make me feel like I'm your goddess

Keep it comin', keep it comin', babe
'Cause I like it, 'cause I like it, babe
Don't stop 'cause no one knows

No one knows how to love me quite like you do
No one knows how to love me quite like you do
No one knows how to love me quite like you do
No one

Well it's the L I Y A H plus the second chapter
R. Kelly's spitin' tracks, as if it were tobacco
It's the ninties, time to get the pockets phat
So when I say book, you say read that

Now back to the matter of the song
No one knows how to love me like you do
I got words for you
Uh, forever my man

No one knows how to love me quite like you do
No one knows how to love me quite like you do
No one knows how to love me quite like you do
No one knows how to love me quite like you do

Liyah you're the only one for me
Liyah you're the only one for me
Liyah you're the only one for me
The one for me, the one for me

Liyah you're the only one for me
Liyah you're the only one for me
Liyah you're the only one for me
The one for me, the one for me

Liyah you're the only one for me
Liyah you're the only one for me
Liyah you're the only one for me
The one for me, the one for me

Liyah you're the only one for me
Liyah

3. CAME TO GIVE LOVE



[Tann]:
Baby girl you got the whole world screaming
Giving it up for you
You got the party people fiending
Bump it to the roof
From the left side to the right side
And straight to the back
Ain't nothing going on here but a dirty money track
Got the party people waving their hands and doing the rodeo
Aaliyah, why don't you kick it, kick the flow

[Aaliyah]
[1] -I came to give my love
To the fans across the world
Reach out to you
Touch the hearts of boys and girls

[Repeat 1 (3x)]

Came to spread my love
Do do do

4. ROCK THE BOAT




[Songwriters: Garrett, Stephen; Seats, Eric L.; Stewart, Rapture D.;]

Boy, you know you make me float
Boy, you really get me high
I feel like I'm on dope
'Cause you serve me on a regular

Boy, you gotta stroke
Before drifting me deeper
You're there now, hold me close
Boy, let's take this overboard now

I want you to
Rock the boat, rock the boat
Rock the boat, rock the boat
Work the middle, work the middle
Work the middle, work the middle

Change positions, new positions
New positions, new positions
Stroke it for me, stroke it for me
Stroke it for me, stroke it for me

Ooh, baby, I love your stroke
'Cause you, 'cause you get me to where I'm going
In a jury you'll get my vote
'Cause I believe, I believe you know just what you doing now

Baby, now we can coast
Let's do it in a hurry
That's too slow
Go ahead and put that thing in over drive

I want you to
Rock the boat, rock the boat
Rock the boat, rock the boat
Work the middle, work the middle
Work the middle, work the middle

Change positions, new positions
New positions, new positions
Stroke it for me, stroke it for me
Stroke it for me, stroke it for me

I want you to
Rock the boat, rock the boat
Rock the boat, rock the boat
Work the middle, work the middle
Work the middle, work the middle

Change positions, new positions
New positions, new positions
Stroke it for me, stroke it for me
Stroke it for me, stroke it for me

Stroke it for me
Stroke it baby, stroke it baby
Work it baby, work it baby
Stroke it
There is something I want you to

I need you to use yourself
Like you never ever used it before
To explore my body
Until you reach the shore
You'll be calling, calling for more

Rock the boat, rock the boat
Rock the boat, rock the boat
Work the middle, work the middle
Work the middle, work the middle

Change positions, new positions
New positions, new positions
Stroke it for me, stroke it for me
Stroke it for me, stroke it for me

5. I MISS YOU



[Songwriters: Bishop, Teddy; Austin, Johnta;]

Ooh, hey
Yeah-e-yeah, yeah
N-n-no, no, no

It's been too long and I'm lost without you
What am I gonna do, said I've been needin' you
Wantin' you, wonderin' if you're the same
And who's been with you, is your heart still mine
I wanna cry sometimes, I miss you

Off to college
Yes you went away
Straight from high school
You up and left me

We were close friends, also lovers
Did everything for one another
Now you're gone and I'm lost without you here now
But I know I gotta live and make it somehow

Come back to me
Can you feel me
Hear me callin'
For you 'cause it's

It's been too long and I'm lost without you
What am I gonna do, said I've been needin' you
Wantin' you, wonderin' if you're the same
And who's been with you, is your heart still mine
I wanna cry sometimes, I miss you

Now I'm sittin' here thinkin' bout you
And the days we used to share
It's drivin' me crazy, I don't know what to do
I'm just wonderin' if you still care

And I want to let you know
That it's killin' me
I know you got another life
You gotta concentrate baby

Come back to me
Can you feel me
Hear me callin' for you
'Cause it's

It's been too long and I'm lost without you
What am I gonna do, said I've been needin' you
Wantin' you, wonderin' if you're the same
And who's been with you, is your heart still mine
I wanna cry sometimes, I miss you

It's been too long and I'm lost without you
What am I gonna do, said I've been needin' you
Wantin' you, wonderin' if you're the same
And who's been with you, is your heart still mine
I wanna cry sometimes, I miss you

I, I, I, I, I, I
I, I, I, I, I, I
I miss you
I, I, I, I, I, I
I, I, I, I, I, I

I can't think no more since you went away
I don't really feel like talkin'
Don't want to hear them buggin' me
Tell me do you understand me
I can't do but be without you

It's been too long and I'm lost without you
What am I gonna do, said I've been needin' you
Wantin' you, wonderin' if you're the same
And who's been with you, is your heart still mine
I wanna cry sometimes, I miss you

It's been too long and I'm lost without you
What am I gonna do, said I've been needin' you
Wantin' you, wonderin' if you're the same
And who's been with you, is your heart still mine
I wanna cry sometimes, I miss you

It's been too long and I'm lost without you
What am I gonna do, said I've been needin' you
Wantin' you, wonderin' if you're the same
And who's been with you, is your heart still mine
I wanna cry sometimes, I miss you

6. THE ONE I GAVE MY HEART TO



[Songwriters: Warren, Diane;]

How could the one I gave my heart to
Break my heart so bad?
How could the one who made me happy
Make me feel so sad?

Won't somebody tell me? So I can understand
If you love me, how could you hurt me like that

How could the one I gave my world to
Throw my world away?
How could the one who said, "I love you"
Say the things you say?

How could the one I was so true to
Just tell me lies?
How could the one I gave my heart to
Break this heart of mine, tell me?

How could you be so cold to me
When I gave you everything?
All my love, all I had inside
How could you just walk out the door?
How could you not love me anymore?
I thought we had forever, I can't understand

How could the one I shared my dreams with
Take my dreams from me?
How could the love that brought such pleasure
Bring such misery?

Won't somebody tell me?
Somebody tell me please
If you love me how could you do that to me? Tell me

How could you just walk out the door?
How could you not love me anymore?
I thought we had forever, I can't understand

How could the one I gave my heart to
Break my heart so bad?
How could the one who made me happy
Make me feel so sad?

Won't somebody tell me?
So I can understand
If you love me how could you hurt me like that?

How could the one I gave my world to
Throw my world away?
How could the one who said, "I love you"
Say the things you say?

How could the one I was so true to
Just tell me lies?
How could the one I gave my heart to
How could the one I gave my heart to
How could the one I gave my heart to
Break this heart of mine, tell me?

9. READ BETWEEN THE LINES



Late afternoon, the sun's going down
I ca-ca-call on your cell (why's he in such a hurry)
Leaving the room, he's mumbling, too
Asking for his shoes, (just leaving outt he blue)
No explanation, no actual location
Just watching him pacing (wonder who he's stressing)
Little conversation, leavin' no debation, he left the door swingin'

You better open your mi-in-ind
To read between the lines
You gotta read between the lines-ines
You gotta read between the li-ines
You gotta read between the lines

9 in the morning, up, up, up way before breakfast
Homeboy gettin restless
(the room is full of questions)
Little replyin, whole lot of denyin'
You're steady collidin
(so why do he keep on trying)
I s-search for the median, now he's a comedian
That's all the more reason
(he's changing like the seasons)
Are you still pleasing, well soon you'll be leaving
Which one will be grieving?

You better open your mind
To gotta read between the lines
You gotta read between the lines-ines
You gotta read between the li-ines
You gotta read between the lines

Your replies are getting old
It's in his eyes, you gotta read between the lines
Lies are gettin told
Look in his eyes, yougotta read between the lines

Your replies are getting old
It's in his eyes, you gotta read between the lines
Lies are gettin told
Look in his eyes, yougotta read between the lines

Hope you don't think you can throw the line over me
'cause I, I know what's going on
I hope you ain't making plans on running me
Cause that, that ain't what I'm on
Hope you don't think you can throw the line over me
'cause you'll look up, and I'll be gone
I hope you ain't making plans on running me
'cause I read between the lines

Who got you thinkin' you ishh ain't been stinkin'?
My temperatures peakin'
(why are you barely speakin)
I'm bustin' his bubble, and he know he in trouble
He's talkin' in doubles
(i'm listening but hardly believing)
Changing the story, or trying to ignore me
Still reaching out for me
(but still I'm hardly reaching)
Give me a reason to put you back on line
You've wasted enough time

I had to open my mind
To read between the lines-ines
You gotta read between the li-ines
You gotta read between the lines-ines
You gotta read between the li-ines
You gotta read between the lines-ines
You gotta read between the li-ines
You gotta read between the lines

Your replies are gettin' old
It's in his eyes, you gotta read between the lines
Lies are gettin' told
Look in his eyes, gotta read between the lines

Your replies are gettin' old
It's in his eyes, you gotta read between the lines
Lies are gettin' told
Look in his eyes, gotta read between the lines

10. SEXY STYLEZ



More than a woman


Passion, instant
Sweat me, feel me
Cupid's shot me
My heartbeat's racing
Tempt me, drive me
Feels so exciting
Thought of highly
It's yours entirely

I'll be...
I'll be more than a lover
More than a woman
More than your others
I'll be...
I'll be more than a lover
More than a woman
More than enough for you
Ill be more...
I'll be more than a lover
More than a woman
Making love under covers
I'll be more...
I'll be more than a lover
More than a woman
More than enough for you

Midnight grindin'
My heart rate's climbin'
You go, I go
'cause we share pillows
Taste me, feed me
There's still no separating
Morning massages
With new bones in your closet

I'll be...
I'll be more than a lover
More than a woman
More than your others
I said ill be...
I'll be more than a lover
More than a woman
More than enough for you
Ill be more...
I'll be more than a lover
More than a woman
Making love under covers
I'm gonna be more...
I'll be more than a lover
More than a woman
More than enough for you


I don't think you're ready
I don't think you're ready
For this thang
For this thang
I don't think you're ready
For this thang
You're not ready
I don't think you're ready
For this thang
This thang, this thang
I don't think you're ready
For this thang

Constant pressures
No scale can measure
Secret treasures
Keeps on getting better
Do you wanna roll with me?
We can go to foreign lands
Your hand in my hand
Do you wanna ride with me?
We can be like Bonnie & Clyde
Be by your side

I'll be...
I'll be more than a lover
More than a woman
More than your others
I'll be more than a lover
More than a woman
More than enough for you
I, I'll be more than a lover
More than a woman
Making love under covers
I'll be more than a lover
More than a woman
More than enough for you
