Harriett Jones lyrics - Eric Benet
Would you listen Ms. Jones?
Let me please come home
Please girl
I was a fool, that’s plain to see
Cuz I had it all when you were with me
One little trip that brought my fall
And one little girl that started it all
When you were away I felt so all alone
I guess I was weak when I should’ve been strong
I got no right to be here on my knees
But my sweet Harriett Jones, still I’m beggin’ you please
Swing low, swing low, sweet Harriett
Baby won’t you let me come home
Swing low, swing low, sweet Harriett
Baby won’t you let me come home
I was doin’ so good with this monogamy
But see these pretty young girls, they won’t let me be
Since losing your love, I’m such a better man
And if you let me come home, I swear you’ll understand
Right now, I spend all my nights sittin’ here alone
Just drinkin’ this wine missing our happy home
To break it all down , I guess I’m tryin’ to say
Some people must lose it all til they appreciate
Swing low, swing low, sweet Harriett
Baby won’t you let me come home
Swing low, swing low, sweet Harriett
Baby won’t you let me come home
Swing low, swing low, sweet Harriett
Baby won’t you let me come home
Swing low, swing low, sweet Harriett
Baby won’t you let me come home
You’re the love of my life
Been through so much together
Girl don’t you know that you’re my best friend
Give my love another try
‘Cause don’t you know the stormy weather
Can bring a brighter love in the end
Just let me come home
Let me come home baby
My Harriett Jones
Ooh let me come home girl
Pretty pretty girls all over me
Pretty pretty girls won’t let me be
Pretty pretty girls all over me
Pretty pretty girls won’t let me be
Swing low, swing low, sweet Harriett
Baby I just want to come home
Swing low, swing low, sweet Harriett
Baby, don’t you know I’m trying to come home
Pretty pretty girls all over me
Pretty pretty girls won’t let me be
Swing low, sweet Harriett
Pretty pretty girls won’t let me be
Pretty pretty girls all over me
Pretty pretty girls won’t let me be
Swing low, sweet Harriett
Pretty pretty girls won’t let me be
Swing it all back to me
News For You lyrics - Eric Benet
Uh, uh, uh
Uh, uh, uh
You tell me love ain't been goin your way
Cause you've been searching, but good ones are hard to find
Said you won't settle for less than what your heart is asking
And life's too precious just to be wasting time.
Disappointment is something that is so familiar
You get your hopes up high, to watch them fall again
So you stopped trying to find your one in a million
And the language of your love, can't nobody comprehend.
[Chorus:]
I got news for you
Cause you don't know how I do
I got ways to make you smile
They never knew about
In the corners of your mind
That no one has tried to find
Your time for love is threw
I got news for you!
Uh, I got news for you, yeah baby!
Your body's glistening all with satisfaction
I've shown you pleasures, girl
You thought you never feel
Girl you were flying like the world was far below us
You said there's no way that I could take you higher still
[Chorus:]
I got news for you
I still got work to do
And you're thinking that I'm done
That's just when love just begun
In the corners of your mind
That no one has tried to find
Your time for love is threw
I got news for you!
Uh, I got news for you, yeah baby!
Don't you worry about me leaving, no, no, girl!
Ain't trying to be deceiving, no, no!
You said I feel good to be true
Baby I got news for you
[Chorus:]
I got news for you
Cause you don't know how I do
I got ways to make you smile
They never knew about
In the corners of your mind
That no one has tried to find
Your time for love is threw
I got news for you!
Uh, I got news for you, yeah baby!
Real Love lyrics - Eric Benet
Oh babe
Don’t you know you we got a real
Real love ooh
Precious, a word that comes to mind
When the morning comes and you’re asleep by my side
Cherish a word that could describe
How our love has stood the many tests of time in our lives
There's a whirlwind of changes this life may bring
But the real thing just holds on come what may
[Chorus:]
And we've got something real, real love, real love uuh
Real love,
In a world full of make believe
We got something real good, real love
Yes, real love, I bet everything on you and me
I love you not just for who you are
For the way you made a better man out of me
Now I try, I try, I swear baby every day I try
To live a life deserving of this joy
You give to me, oh to me
Now you got your funny ways girl
Lord knows I've got mine
But keep on getting better, better all the time
And we got some real love, real love uuh
Real love,
In a world where nothing’s what it seems
We got something real good, real love
Just standing strong for the whole word to see
Don’t ever question what my heart needs tomorrow
Girl I just want the same old love you gave me today
We got it for sure
Kind of love that knows that joy brings some sorrow
But we can’t go wrong if we just hold on
Ain't nothing strong..
[Chorus:]
[2x]
Don’t you know we got a real
Don’t you know we got a real love for sure
Don’t you know we got a real
Don’t you know we got a real love for sure
Runnin' lyrics - Eric Benet
Runnin used to be the way I pass my time
All over town just to see what I could find
Every now and then I find some company
But every kiss...
I try to tell myself that it was just a game
I'd run again to try and ease that lonely pain
No matter where I travel there I'd be stuck in those walls of skin call me
And I was just runnin' to find somethin true
And I just be runnin with nothing to prove
And I can't go runnin and nothing to show
They all saw me runnin and said there he go
You cut my eye one day when I was on a run
So how you make me feel my life had just begun
I've seen the last of all my roamin and days
'Cause I grew from you I've never run oh babe
Now you got me runnin to get home to you
And my heart keeps running when I think of things you do
And I full be runnin to the one else no one
They all see me runnin and say that love is for sure oh yeah
I'm not hesitating no and as soon as work is done yeah
As fast as my legs can carry me yeah
Mhmh yeah life ain't complicated oh no
When you got only one, one heart one joy
One place to be
And now I'm watching people runnin all around
Chasing after things I will just run them down
Life is so much better if they change their way
I wish I could tell them but you know I can't stand
'Cause I gotta get runnin and get home to you, gotta get home
And my heart keep runnin when I think of things you do,
Think about the things you do
And I won't be runnin, no one else, no one no more
And now see me runnin and say that's love for sure
I gotta get runnin and get home to you, gotta get home
And my heart keep runnin when I think of things you do,
And I won't be runnin, no one else, no one no more
And now see me runnin and say that's love for sure
And all see me running and say that's love for sure
They all see me runnin and say that's love for sure
Redbone Girl lyrics - Eric Benet (feat. Lil Wayne)
Young Weezy We and Eric B, aha
And I love all women (if you know what I mean)
Yes lord, I love them dark, I love them light
Short, tall, thick, thin and back one more again (alright)
But there’s this one particular situation I need to tell you all about
I met a honey about a week ago
I got a little but I need some more
I ain’t the only one to learn her curves
Matter of fact, forget what you heard
She’s all, she’s all that and more, oh yeah
Yes she is
Her reputation ain’t squeaky clean
A little gossip ain’t phasing me
So go ahead say what you want
You can give a damn, but I don’t
Cause I’m gone, I’m already gone
Yes I am
Don’t you know she’s
[Chorus]
She’s my, redbone girl
A bitter sweet, but she’s my world
Coffee cream, thick and lean
My redbone girl, redbone girl, yeah
Our baby hail from the Oakland Bay
Got an east coast vibe but a southern mind
A devil mind with an angel face
She’ll leave and make a nonbeliever pray
For a chance, just to get some something
Yes she will,
Uhh, you don’t know what you do to me
But you’re killing the girls in my history
I need a shot just to let her hit
She give me 2 when I need a fix
Lord knows I’ve tried, but I swear I can’t quit
Don’t you know she’s my
[Chorus]
She’s my, redbone girl
Redbone but she’s my world
Have you seen, my chocolate dream
My redbone girl, redbone girl
She’s my, redbone girl
A bitter sweet, but she’s my world
Coffee cream, thick and lean
My redbone girl, redbone girl, ooh
[Lil Wayne]
I like the long hair thick redbone
I do it so right, she say I’m dead wrong
And now she in love, like phase on
Now I’m in my zone, I got her head spinning, spinning like a cyclone
And it’s them red women at my red eye zone
I get at red, @red.com
I’m high and my girl high yella
Fine as wine, put her in a wine cellar
Roses are red, do you mind if I smell them
What can you do, Consuela, Consuela
I like them light skin, lighter than a feather
And if she red hot, I’m biting that pepper
Tighter than my leather pants, let them say
She the same color as my flag – suwoo
[Chorus]
She’s my, redbone girl
Redbone, she’s my world
Have you see, my milk chocolate dream
My redbone girl, redbone girl, yeah
She’s my, redbone girl,
A bitter sweet, but you know she’s my world
Coffee cream, thick and lean
Redbone girl, my redbone girl, yeah
Waitin' lyrics - Eric Benet
Whooo-oooh, yeah yeah!
O-oh, baby

Now, ever since the day I saw you,
There was one thing that I knew for sure

Enoying that it wasn't me.
I knew I have to pick my battles
To gain my victory!

Just hoping to see, oh hoping
And that something you searched for

Before I even knew your name, ye-yeah
And it's funny how that do neglects you
While I got this flame, uuh

Hope That It's You lyrics - Eric Benet (feat. Shaggy)
Oh yeah yeah
Hey, I hope I hope I hope it's you
A long time I've been alone
The one love I had was thrown away
And that was a shame
I come home and there's no phone calls
The sunset is just the light gone off
With love I'm just lost
But then I saw your face and felt my odds improve
And so I had to brave your filthy magic too
So if I ever ever ever feel the light of love again
If wishes come true (if wishes come true)
I hope that it's you (I hope that it's you)
And if I ever ever ever get a chance to hold your hand (take your hand)
I'll be sayin' I do (I'll be sayin' I do)
As long as it's you (I hope that it's you)
I hope that it's
I gave up 'cause I've been through it
But you smiled girl and I heard music playing
I ain't been the same (I never been the same)
A long while but I learned some lessons
So this time you'll get the best in me (you're gonna get the best in me)
If this is supposed to be
They say the first time is the deepest love by far
But girl it's looking like the second time's the charm
So if I ever ever ever feel the light of love again (if I ever feel that light)
If wishes come true (if wishes come true)
I hope that it's you (I hope that it's you)
And if I ever ever ever get a chance to hold your hand (hold your hand)
I'll be sayin' I do (sayin' I do)
As long as it's you (I hope that it's you)
I hope that it's
You got me thinkin' 'bout the future and you know that's not like me
No matter where we go, you make me feel it's where I'm s'posed to be
If I only had a nickel every time I said I'm through
But all the money in the world don't mean a thing if I can't have you
So if I ever ever ever feel the light of love again (if I ever feel that love light)
I hope that it's you (I hope that it's you)
Please let it be you (please let it be you)
And if I ever ever ever get a chance to take your hand (one chance to take your hand)
Oh I'm sayin' I do (sayin' I do)
I hope that it's you (I hope that it's you)
You got me hopin', girl you got me hopin'
Let's take a chance love, tell me what you think you're gonna do
I hope that it's you (I hope it's you)
Girl here it is so let's make it official (come on)
I need to know now, tell me if you feel like I do
I hope that it's you
So if I ever ever ever feel the light of love again (oh I hope I feel that light)
I hope that it's you (I hope that it's you)
Please let it be you (please let it be you)
And if I ever ever ever get a chance to take your hand (one chance to take your hand)
Oh I'm sayin' I do (sayin' I do)
Gonna Be My Girl lyrics - Eric Benet
First time I ever saw you
Was in crowded caffe
I was starring at my future
Face to face.
You were like a loving memory,
Though we never met before
And you smiled, and my heart was yours forever more!
Of all the things I've known they came true
I've never been so sure in all my life,
I don't know how, no no
I don't know where, don't know where
I don't know what I'm gonna say
To make it all begin,
But I do know one thing, one thing
Sure as anything,
Sure love is still alive in this world
You gonna be my girl!
You gonna be, gonna be
You gonna be my girl.
I was going through soem changes
And I know I broke your heart
But I'm working on myself since we've been apart
Yes, girl...
Come Together lyrics - Eric Benet
I know the road of love lately has been a rocky one
It seems as though we can't see eye to eye
Girl we fight just a little too much
Love just a little bit too less
A little sexual healing might help us find our
(Baby can we come) Oh baby
(Baby let's come together)
(Baby can we come) Ooh
(Baby can we come at the same time)
With every grinding, perfect time
I'll hit that magic spot girl
(Take our time with each position)
(Take me, find that right connection girl)
You'll see that we don't need to jeopardize this love
I'm not just talking physical so come with me
And love will grow
(Baby can we come)
(Baby let's come together) My baby
(Baby can we come) Oh
(Baby can we come at the same time)
(Baby can we come) Oh yeah baby
(Baby let's come together)
(Baby can we come) Can we come, yeah yeah
(Baby can we come at the same time)
(Don't you wanna come now baby)
(Everything will be like it was) It was
(I don't wanna fight no more)
(So won't you dim the lights and close the door)
Just close the door, just go close the door
(Baby can we come)
(Baby let's come together) Oh yeah
(Baby can we come) My baby
(Baby can we come at the same time)
(Baby can we come) Baby won't you come with me
(Baby let's come together) Oh my baby
(Baby can we come)
(Baby can we come at the same time) Oh oh yeah baby
(Baby can we come)
(Baby let's come together) Won't ya just come with me
(Baby can we come) One more time for love
(Baby can we come at the same time)
(Baby can we come) Don't you know I love you girl, don't you know I love ya
(Baby let's come together) Won't ya come with me right now
(Baby can we come) Oh
(Baby can we come at the same time)
Muzik lyrics - Eric Benet (feat. India Benet)
When I'm all alone, I hear your voice still with me
I can't find my way, you're the one who helps me see
When the air is thin, I'm caving it, it's hard to breath
I just let you in so I can find that inner peace
In my darkest hour I run to you to ease my pain
I like laughter that keeps me from going insane
You fortify, lift me up so I'm feeling strong again
You're the reason why I'm still alive
You're just like music in my life
You take the wrong and make it right
You've saved my world so many times
You're just like music in my life
You're the perfect song, the perfect time, time and time again
I can lean on you, trust in you more than any friend
When I'm looking back at my life, you never left my side
I can count on you to tell the truth though it hurts sometimes
You inspire me, never lie to me, you're never one to judge
If we share a day, I walk away feeling showered with love
Even when I don't, you're holding on, you never let me go
Unconditional, spiritual
You're just like music in my life
You feel just like my guiding light
And I've been lost so many times
You're just like music in my life
You're just like music in my life
You took my wrong and make it right
You've saved my world so many times
You're just like music in my life
Like a perfect harmony, your love stays in tune with my heart
You're bringing out the best in me and nothing's gonna keep us apart
You're just like music in my life
You take the wrong and make it right (you made it right girl)
You've saved my world so many times (many, many, many times)
You're just like music in my life
You're just like music in my life
You take my wrong and make it right
You've saved my world so many times
You're just like music in my life
You better believe it
In my life
I forget about my trouble, yeah
(I forget about my troubles) When I'm feeling down
(Forget about my troubles) When you came around
(I forget about my troubles) I just see your smile
(Forget about my troubles) When you stay a while
(I forget about my troubles) Just take my hand
(Forget about my troubles) And you understand
(I forget about my troubles) Everything is fine
(Forget about my troubles) When we spend some time
(I forget about my troubles) When I'm feeling down
(Forget about my troubles) Then you come around
(I forget about my troubles) I gotta see you smile
(Forget about my troubles) When you stay a while
(I forget about my troubles) I just take your hand
(Forget about my troubles) You know I understand
(I forget about my troubles) Everything is fine
Lay It Down lyrics - Eric Benet
I can tell you're feeling uninspired
I can see you lost most of your fire
I don't see the will or the desire
And I can't hold a hand that won't reach for me
I don't your struggles or your reasons
And I don't the names of all your demons
I'm just a friend who knows what you've been needing
So one to share your burden helps set you free
So come and lay it down
Oh you can lay it all on me
Come lay it down
Oh I'll help to find and ease
Just lay it down
Oh you can lay it all on me
Come lay it down
Baby everybody's trying to climb their mountain
Don't nobody know a way to go around it
If there's a road that's trouble-free, no one has found it
So don't ever feel like no one knows your suffering
Everybody has a load that they must carry
To go it alone is so unnecessary
Don't let your pride deny this love ain't good for sharing
'Cause I'm here for you and any healing that may bring
So come and lay it down
Come lay it, you can lay it all on me
Come lay it down
Come lay it, I'll help to find and ease
Just lay it down
Come lay it, you can lay it all on me
Come lay it down
Someday when this pain is over
The light at the end I see
Oh one day you will need a shoulder
Come lay all your burdens on me
Just lay it down, just lay it down
So come and lay it down
Come lay it, you can lay it all on me
Just lay it down
Come lay it, I'll help to find and ease
Just lay it down
Come lay it, you can lay it all on me
Come lay it down
Lay your burdens all on me
Come lay it, you can lay it all on me
Just lay it down
Come lay it, I'll help to find and ease
Come lay it down
Come lay it, you can lay it all on me
Come lay it down
It's gonna be alright
We gonna work it out, yeah
Here In My Arms (Lucia's Lullaby) lyrics - Eric Benet
Gently this world spins beneath mother's son
So sweetly she sets out of sight
Hush now my darling for our day is done
One kiss and I'll tell you goodnight
The moon up above, such a marvel to see
The stars cover heavenly skies
But none could compare as you drift off to sleep
To the glow from the light of your smile
Heaven and earth full of wonders to see
The greatest of all is right here with me
Of all of the loves I have known near and far
The best is right here in my arms
Whispers of night are the angels at play
Watching over the treasure of you
You took your first breath and you took mine away
Now the light of my life found in you
Heaven and earth have such wonders to see
The greatest of all is right here with me
There was a dream, I once wished on a star
But now you're right here in my arms
And now you're right here in my arms
Yes now you're right here in my arms
Come Home To Me lyrics - Eric Benet (feat. Jewel Anguay)
[Eric Benét:]
Girl I'm trying hard just to understand
Where did I go wrong & I been I'm a good man
You could say your wish & I make it come true
It's not a damn thing i wouldn't do for you
I think you how much this is killing me
But i love you enough to set you free
Go ahead baby. Find yourself
But just do my heart a favour girl. Don't Find nobody else.
When you walk the world the whole way around
And the best you had you already found
And your heart had enough of breaking down
And darling you'll know where I'll be
Come home to me [x2]
[Jewel Anguay:]
I'm not saying your not the one for me
It's just something inside I've been questioning
Cos every woman has to go and find her own path
And if our love was true like we always knew then I'll be coming back
When I walked the world the whole way around
And the best I've had I've already found
When the heart has had enough of breaking down
[Eric Benét:]
And darling you'll know where I'll be
Come home to me [x2]
Now while your on your way think of how this all began
Before lovers we were friends
That's no ordinary thing
[Jewel Anguay:]
I'm gonna put my trust in love
So love put your trust in you
When I walked the world the whole way around
And the best I've had I've already found
When the heart has had enough of breaking down
[Eric Benét:]
My darling you'll know where I'll be
[Jewel Anguay:]
When I walked the world the whole way around
[Eric Benét:]
And the very best you've had you've already found
[Jewel Anguay:]
When the heart has had enough of breaking down
[Eric Benét:]
My darling you'll know where I'll be
Come home to me
[Jewel Anguay:]
I'm coming home
[Eric Benét:]
Come home to me
[Jewel Anguay:]
I'm com in on home
[Eric Benét:]
Come on back home
