"Find Me a Man" - Toni Braxton

Photographer Unknown








I'm just a girl
That doesn't like the thought of being alone
I need to be loved and held real close
I'm the kind of girl
That needs to be caressed and kissed so soft yeah
There's no better way to turn me on
I need a man who
Who's gonna treat me right
I need a man who'll be with me every night
So I've gotta
Find me a man
With sensitive eyes
One who understands
Love is stronger than pride
So I gotta
Find me a man
A sensitive mind
Not just any man
One of a kind
I'm just a girl
That likes a man that knows his right from wrong
One that will keep his loving at home
I'm the kind of girl
Who likes to please her man the whole night long
Oh
But he's gotta please me just as long
I want a man who
Who's gonna treat me right
I need a man who's gonna be with me every night
So I gotta
Find me a man
With sensitive eyes
One who understands
Love is stronger than pride
So I gotta
Find me a man
A sensitive mind
Not just any man
One of a kind
I know what I'm looking for, and I know
He's gotta be wonderful, 'cause I know
I am too beautiful, to settle for nothing less, ooh
I know what I'm searching for, yes I know
It's someone incredible, don't you know
That I won't give up until I've found the perfect man
So I gotta
I gotta find me
Gotta find me a guy
So I gotta find me, find me
Find me a man
Not just any man
One of a kind

"You Mean the World to Me"- Toni Braxton

Photographer Unknown









If you could give me one good reason
Why I should believe you
Believe in all the things that you tell
I would sure like to believe you
My heart wants to receive you
Just make me know that you are sincere
You know I'd love for you to lead me
And follow thru completely
So won't you give me all I ask for
And if you give your very best
To bring me happiness
I'll show you just how much I adore you

Cause you mean the world to me
You are my everything
I swear the only thing that matters
Matters to me
Oh baby, baby, baby, baby,
Baby, cause you mean so much
To me

Now it's gonna take some workin'
But I believe you're worth it
Long as your intentions are good
So good
There is just one way to show it
And boy I hope you know it
That no one could love you like I could
Lord knows I want to trust you
And always how I'd love you
I'm not sure if love is enough
And I will not be forsaken
And I hope there's no mistakin'
So tell me that you'll always be true

Cause you mean the world to me
You are my everything
I swear the only thing that matters
Matters to me
Oh baby, baby, baby, baby,
Baby, cause you mean so much
To me

There's a feeling in my heart
That I know I can't escape
So please don't let me fall
Don't let it be too late
There's a time when words are good
And they just get in the way
So show me how you feel
Baby I'm for real
Oh, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby

Cause you mean the world to me
You are my everything
I swear the only thing that matters
Matters to me
Oh baby, baby, baby, baby,
Baby, cause you mean so much
To me

...will my heart ever stop feeling for you, longing for you... will my mind ever stop thinking of you... will I ever stop dreaming of you... will someone ever replace you... will I ever not desire you...


-C.V. aka lyricsandlongsleeve
Our lives are filled with people and things that at one time were so important, then with the passing of time they fade from our interest. Some people and some things, though, gain greater meaning with each day.
