Nobody does it better as made famous by Carly Simon

Written by Marvin Hamlisch and Carole Bayer Sager

Nobody does it better,

Makes me feel sad for the rest,
Nobody does it half as good as you,
Baby you're the best.

I wasn't looking,
but somehow you found me,
I tried to hide from your lovelight ,
but like heaven above me,
the spy who loved me,
is keeping all my secrets safe tonight.

And nobody does it better,
Though sometimes I wish someone could,
Nobody does it quite the way you do,
Why d'you have to be so good?.

The way that you hold me,
whenever you hold me,
There's some kind of magic inside you,
that keeps me from runnning,
but just keep it coming,
how'd you learn to do the things you do.

And nobody does it better,
makes me feel sad for the rest,
nobody does it half as good as you,
baby, baby,
darling you're the best,
baby you're the best.

Gettin in the way by Jill Scott

You're gettin in the way of what i'm feelin (x2)

Sista Gurl, I know you don't understand,
but you gon' have to understand he's my man now.
What you had is gone. Our thing is sweet.
Our thing is stronger than any lie you can tell on me.
He knows my heart. And thats a part.
Ya roots are dug up so you might as well give up.
I see your intentions. You can't handle the truth.
He let you go a long time ago now it's time to turn him loose.

Chorus:
You're gettin in the way of what I'm feelin.
x4

Sugar honey gurl, fly fly away.

Don't know how much more I can take.
Queens shouldn't swing if you know what I mean.
But I'm bout to take my rings off get me some vaseline.

Hook

You better back down before you get smack down you better chill(you betta relax urself

Suddenly I see by KT Tunstall

Her face is a map of the world
Is a map of the world
You can see she’s a beautiful girl
She’s a beautiful girl
And everything around her is a silver pool of light
People who surround her feel the benefit of it
It makes you calm
She’ll hold you captivated in her palm

Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
This is what I want to be
Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
Why the hell it means so much to me (Suddenly I see)
This is what I want to be
Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
Why the hell it means so much to me

I feel like walking the world
Like walking the world
You can hear she’s a beautiful girl
She’s a beautiful girl
She fills up every corner like she’s born in black and white
Makes you feel warmer when you’re trying to remember what you heard
She likes to leave you hanging on her word

Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
This is what I want to be
Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
Why the hell it means so much to me (Suddenly I see)
This is what I want to be
Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
Why the hell it means so much to me

And she’s taller than most and she’s looking at me
I can see her eyes looking from the page of a magazine
She makes me feel like I could be a tower
Big strong tower yeah

The power to be
The power to give
The power to see
Yeah
Yeah
(Suddenly I see)
x5

Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
This is what I want to be
Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
Why the hell it means so much to me (Suddenly I see)
This is what I want to be
Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
Why the hell it means so much to me

Oh

Suddenly I see (Suddenly I see)
Why the hell it means so much to me (Suddenly I see)
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
(Suddenly I see)
Suddenly I see
(Suddenly I see)
Why the hell it means so much to me

Good Girl by Vanessa Marquez

You just lost a good girl
good girl good girl
a good girl
you lost today
from such a good thing
good girl good girl
from such a good thing
you walked away

[Verse 1]
Thought I was your guiding light
your angel what did I know

was prepared to sacrifice my halo
I was bugging out

everybody come to me
telling me the things they seen
your girlfriend live for the lime light
but that's alright if thats what you like

You just lost a good girl
good girl good girl
a good girl
you lost today
from such a good thing
good girl good girl
from such a good thing
you walked away


[Verse 2]
How could mistake us having sex with making love
inside I'll never know
how can I believe you knew what real love was
It's real I said is so
everybody come to me
telling me the things they seen
your girlfriend live for the lime light
but that's alright if thats what you like

You just lost a good girl
good girl good girl
a good girl
you lost today
from such a good thing
good girl good girl
from such a good thing
you walked away


[Bridge]
I reminisce to that moment
you held me close
said we could rewrite history
so how could you blow it

song has no notes so what will the angel sing?
guess nothing

[Verse 3]
Thought I was over my life's biggest hurdle
but o no no no
it seems destinies arranges circles that's how it goes
everybody come to me
telling me the things they seen
your girlfriend live for the lime light
but that's alright if that's what you like

You just lost a good girl
good girl good girl
a good girl
you lost today
from such a good thing
good girl good girl
from such a good thing
you walked away


Not really a jealous girl
my heart open doors to a place you can walk through
more precious than any girl
darling your best friend
someone you can talk to

so I'm single now...

Sitting Waiting, Wishing by Jack Johnson

Well I was sitting, waiting, wishing
You believed in superstitions
Then maybe you'd see the signs

The Lord knows that this world is cruel
I ain't the Lord, no I'm just a fool
Learning lovin' somebody don't make them love you

Must I always be waiting, waiting on you
Must I always be playing, playing your fool

I sang your songs, I danced your dance
I gave your friends all a chance
But putting up with them
Wasn't worth never having you

Maybe you've been through this before
But it's my first time so please ignore
The next few lines cause they're directed at you

I can't always be waiting, waiting on you
I can't always be playing, playing your fool

I keep playing your part
But it's not my scene
Want this plot to twist
I've had enough mystery
Keep building it up
Then shooting me down
But I'm already down

Just wait a minute
Just sitting, waiting
Just wait a minute
Just sitting, waiting

Well, if I was in your position
I'd put down all my ammunition
I'd wonder why'd it taken me so long

But Lord knows that I'm not you
And if I was, I wouldn't be so cruel
Cause waitin' on love aint so easy to do

Must I always be waiting, waiting on you
Must I always be playing, playing your fool

No, I can't I always be waiting, waiting on you
I can't always be playing, playing your fool

Tell it Like it Is by Aaron Neville

so my feeling at this moment... I'm so over it...

If you want something to play with
Go and find yourself a toy
Baby my time is too expensive
And I'm not a little boy

If you are serious
Don't play with my heart
It makes me furious
But if you want me to love you
Then a baby I will, girl you know that I will

Tell it like it is
Don't be ashamed , let your conscience be your guide
But I know deep down inside me
I believe you love me, forget your foolish pride

Life is too short to have sorrow
You may be here today and gone tomorrow
You might as well get what you want
So go on and live, baby go on and live

Tell it like it is
I'm nothing to play with
Go and find yourself a toy
But I... Tell it like it is
My time is too expensive and I'm not your little boy

More Than a Woman by Aaliyah

Passion, Instant
Sweat me, Feel me
Cupid's shot me
My heartbeat's racing
Tempt me, Drive me
Feels so exiting
Thought of highly
It's yours entirely

I'll be
I'll be more than a lover
More than a woman
More than your lover
I'll be
I'll be more than another
More than a woman
More than another
I'll be
(I'll be more) More than your lover
(More) More than a woman
(More) More than your lover
I'll be
(I'll be more) More than a lover
(More) More than a woman
(More) More than another

Midnight grindin'
My heartrate'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 lover
I said i'll be
I'll be
I'll be more than another
More than a woman
More than another
I'll be
(I'll be more) More than your lover
(More) More than a woman
(More) More than your lover
I'm gonna be
(I'll be more) More than a lover
(More) More than a woman
(More) More than another

I don't think your ready
I don't think your ready for this thing
For this thing
I don't think your ready for this thing
You're Not Ready
I don't think your ready for this thing
This thing, This thing
I don't think your ready for this thing

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 more than a lover
More than a woman
More than your lover
I'll be more than another
More than a woman
More than another
(I'll be more) More than your lover
(More) More than a woman
(More) More than your lover
(I'll be more) more than a lover
(More) More than a woman
(More) More than another
