You Are (Working Demo) Lyrics

G-Sharp

1-2-89

2:26 in the morning

Somehow I gotta get back to 9-to-5 schedule within the next, uh...

19 hours

Sippin' some herb tea

Gettin' ready to bug out

Thinkin' about that tall, light-skinned girl again

Drivin' me crazy

So I'm gonna bug out here

Peace and goodwill to all

Lights out

Do this right

Take all that if you have to

You are

You are

Everything

Everything that a man would want his woman to be

Everything

You are

Everything that a man would want his woman to be

So much more

You are

Everything that a man would want his woman to be, be, be

You're special, lady

And when you're with me

You take me everywhere you've ever been

Everything you're ever been

Everything we'll ever be

Oh, I can't say the words

Describe the way you make me feel

All I know is that you're a special lady

One like you don't come around too often

In the past, there's been a circumstance

You and I can't get together, girl

But now we're a little older

Can you hear what I'm saying

You are

Everything that a man would want his woman to be

Everything

You are

Everything that a man would want his woman to be

So special, girl

From the chest

Yeah

You are my special lady

Oh, girl, you know, you know, you know

We'd be so right

For each other

There's no way to know

The things we could do together

How can I tell you

Just how I feel

How can I tell you

Baby, all the things in my heart

It wasn't

Just the physical things

I'm serious

And if I could, I'd have you for a lifetime

You are

You are

You are

You are

You are

Everything that a man would ever want his woman to be

Goes without saying, baby

Well, we've known each other for quite a while-time

We've been friends and all along the line

You know, you know, you know, you know, you know

How I feel for you, girl

I've been holding back

You've been holding back

You've been hugging back

And I've been holding back

And now it's time you stop this

Holding back and get it right

And get it on time now

Don't you know

Some things are just meant to be

Some things are meant to last for a lifetime

Some things are meant to last forever

You are

Everything that a man would want his woman to be

So much more

You are

Everything that a man would want his woman to be

Everything

Girl, I need your love

I need you like never before

I can't say the words that are on my mind

That make me feel the way you make me feel

And I know how much

How much you need somebody

To hear you through

To make you feel like you need me

To make you feel so special

To make you feel like the woman that you are

And everything you ever could be

You are

You are

A special kind of lady

A special kind of woman

A special kind of somebody

Somebody

To make my day go easier

To make my nights go easier

To make my whole life

I wanna share

I wanna share it all with you

Now and forever

There ain't too many words I could say

To tell you about the things that I feel for you

There ain't too many

Words I could write that could say

Just what's on my mind and in my heart

Seriously

We're the real deal here

Even if we wouldn't be lovers

I'd just like to pass my time with you

I just wanna

I just wanna hang around with you, girl

Just wanna

Be with you when I'm in my town, yeah

We have a lot of laughs together

We've had a lot of good times together

And when the bad times come

I'm gonna be for you

Right by your side

Right by your side

Anything, anytime

Anywhere, anyplace

You need somebody

I'm gonna be right there for you

Anytime that you need somebody

Just call on me

You are

You are

You are

You are

You are

You are

You are

You are

A special individual lady

Ain't met nobody

That's quite like you

Never met nobody

That can make me feel

The way you make me feel when I'm with you

'Cause when we're together

It's so hard to say goodbye

And every time that I watch you leave me

Girl, you wanna make me cry

You don't know

What I'm going through

What I've done with you

And I care

You are

You are

You are

You are

You are

You are

You are

Sweet perfection

In the place

In my life

In everything and everywhere

And every time I wanna be with someone

You are right there by my side

I wanna feel you with me

For the rest of my life

No, I ain't feel this way about nobody in a long time

Even then, I wanted somebody

For me

But I want somebody for me

And I want somebody for you

It just seems like it would be the thing to do

Me and you

We go together

Like dinner and wine

We go together like

I don't know, I can't think of it

Cause nothing just quite sums up the perfect way that me and you come together

Like two lost pieces in the puzzle of life

That have been searching for each other

Forever and ever

And we found each other

Yet we're so not used to looking at other lost pieces

That we just give up

Girl, we fit just right

We fit just right

Like milk and coffee

Like chocolate chips and cookies

Why don't you put butter and corn in there too

Because that's how this is getting

But still

I feel, I mean, it's just right

What else can I say

It's just so damn right

Me and you should be together

And I don't feel like I'm rolling dice on this one either, baby

I know you're with me

And if you ain't with me all the way, you're with me as a friend

And that means just as much

If not no long run more

With you

I wanna take my time

With you

I wanna take a long, long time

Make it last a lifetime

Whatever it takes

Just as long as you can always be there, I'll always be there

So I'm gonna put down this here mic

And I'm gonna call you first thing in the morning

When you pick up the phone

Say, hey, how you been

Happy New Year

It's been a while

Missed you

What are you doing later on today

Yeah

Maybe me and you can get together

We can go hang out

Go down the village, get some food

I know you don't like eating heavy stuff

I know some good places we could go

Get at Times Square, maybe get a picture later on

After that

Whatever you want

We can go dancing

We can go anywhere

We can even walk another 120 blocks back to my house

Just like we did before

Cause I think of that night all the time

If you want, we can come up

Have a cup of tea

Have a little champagne, celebrate the new year

Celebrate something very beautiful

You

And me

And you know why

I'll tell you why

It's because

You are

Everything that a man would want his woman to be

Everything

You are

Everything that a man would want his woman to be

You're so special

Ain't nobody I ever seen

That's like you

And I know there ain't gonna be anybody else that can ever take your place

So I'm gonna tell you now

I'm gonna tell you now

I'm gonna tell you now

And I hope you sticking with me girl

You are

Everything that a man would want his woman to be

Everything

You are

Everything that a man would want his woman to be

Everything

Then you got the option

You can leave

You could stay

Just, please don't go away

Because you are everything this man here has ever looked for in a woman

Everything

You are beauty

You have personality

You are the right fuel to set this fire burning for a long, long, long time

Baby, I wanna burn

It's been a little chilly around the uh ventricles lately in my heart

And uh I need some fire to burn it up

I need a little uh desired uh companionship there

I need someone who can understand me when I bug out

I need someone who can understand me when I say the corny and strange things that I-do

You're the one

Girl I know it, I feel it, I know it, I feel it

I realize that you are the one, you are my surprise

You are the one, I see it in your eyes, in mine too

Whenever we're together

Whenever we're together

Ain't nobody gonna tell me that you're anything else, girl

Because you are

Everything that this man would ever want his woman to be

Talking yesterday, today, tomorrow, forever

We got a legacy, we got a legacy

Me and you, we're going to make this right

Oh yeah
