Lyrics: 

I love the taste of you in the morning
Keep me warm and
Nothin' else, nothin' more important
Makes me wanna believe in love (mmm)

I love the thought of us in the evening
Crave the feeling
The way you feel, somethin' 'bout it's healing
I'm praying we don't fuck this up

Others that I've had had to impress me before
But I knew you were the real thing
When you walked through the door
I didn't think that I would have to spell it out

Don't put the bands, put the bands on me
All my love, all my love is free
Ain't no price on my loyalty
No shit, got me right where you want me, baby
Could I be more obvious? 
Hard to think when I'm under you
Tell you all of my dirty truths
No shit, got me right where you want me, baby
Could I be more obvious?

Maybe if I'm lucky, you might stay the afternoon
If you gotta work, just promise me you'll come back soon
Maybe you should pack a suitcase too (too)

I love the thought of you never leavin' (no)
Days repeatin' (yuh)
Gettin' steps up on the treadmill while you sleepin'
Never thought I'd believe in love again

Others that I've had had to impress me before
But I knew you were the real thing
When you walked through the door
I didn't think that I would have to spell it out

Don't put the bands, put the bands on me
All my love, all my love is free
Ain't no price on my loyalty
No shit, got me right where you want me, baby
Could I be more obvious? 
Hard to think when I'm under you
Tell you all of my dirty truths
No shit, got me right where you want me, baby
Could I be more obvious?

Obvious, ooh, yuh, (*lip smack cause I’m too lazy to cut it out)
No shit, got me right where you want me, baby
Hard to think when I'm under you
Tell you all of my dirty truths
No shit, got me right where you want me, baby
Could I be more obvious?
Obvious

The Roof - Mariah Carey 🌃🌧️

Recorded in 2022, prolly still my best work in terms of the vocal layerings 😋 this might be a sleeper if late 90s RnB aint your thing

[Verse 1]
It wasn't raining yet (Yet)
But it was definitely a little misty on (But it was definitely)
That warm November night
And my heart was pounding (Pounding)
My inner voice resounding
Begging me to turn away
But I just had to see your face
To feel alive (To feel alive)

And then you casually walked in the room
And I was twisted in the web
Of my desire for you (And I was twisted)
My apprehension blew away
I only wanted you
To taste my sadness
As you kissed me in the dark

[Chorus]
Every time I feel the need (and every time)
I envision you caressing me
And go back in time (back in time) (go back, go back, go back)
To relive the splendor of you and I
On the rooftop that rainy night

[Verse 2]
And so we finished the Moët and
I started feeling liberated
And I surrendered as you took me in your arms (You took me in your arms)
I was so caught up in the moment
I couldn't bear to let you go yet (so I)
So I threw caution to the wind
And started listening to my longing heart (heart)

And then you softly pressed your lips to mine
And feelings surfaced I'd suppressed
For such a long long time (And I was lifted)
And for a while I forgot
The sorrow and the pain
And melted with you as we stood there in the rain

[Chorus]
Every time I feel the need (and every time)
I envision you caressing me (Envision you, caressing me)
And go back in time (back in time) (Back, I go back)
To relive the splendor of you and I (you and I)
On the rooftop that rainy night

(Every time)
Every time I feel the need (and every time)
I envision you caressing me
(Envision you)
And go back in time (back in time)
To relive the splendor of you and I (you...)
On the rooftop that rainy night

[Bridge]
Last night I dreamed that I
(Last night I... dreamed that I...)
Whispered the words “I love you”
(That I love you boy...)
And touched you so very (touched)
Subtly as we were kissing goodbye
(kiss... kiss... bye...)

Pretty baby boy (pretty baby boy)
How I'm missing you

[Chorus]
(Every time I...)
Every time I feel the need (and every time)
I envision you caressing me
(Envision you, caressing me)
And go back in time (back in time)
To relive the splendor of you and I (I go back)
On the rooftop that rainy night
(On the roof that rainy night)

Every time I feel the need (and every time)
(When I feel the need, envision you)
I envision you caressing me
(Over and over and over again)
And go back in time (back in time)
To relive the splendor of you and I
(It was oh so sweet, you and I)
On the rooftop that rainy night
(On that rainy night)

Every time I feel the need (and every time)
(Last night I had the strangest dream...)
I envision you caressing me
(It was actually quite symbolic)
And go back in time (back in time)
(As I whispered... said “I loved you”)
To relive the splendor of you and I
(...very subtly) (oh everytime…)
On the rooftop that rainy night

[Outro]
Every time I feel the need (and every time)
I envision you caressing me
And go back in time (go back in time)
To relive the splendor of you and I
On the rooftop that rainy night

My All - Mariah Carey 🖤🩶

My go-to karaoke song 


[Verse 1]
I am thinking of you
In my sleepless solitude tonight
If it's wrong to love you
Then my heart just won't let me be right
'Cause I'm drowned in you
And I won't pull through
Without you by my side

[Chorus]
I'd give my all to have
Just one more night with you
I'd risk my life to feel
Your body next to mine
'Cause I can't go on
Living in the memory of our song
I'd give my all for your love tonight

[Verse 2]
Baby, can you feel me?
Imagining I'm looking in your eyes
I can see you clearly
Vividly emblazoned in my mind
And you're just so far
Like a distant star
I'm wishing on tonight

[Chorus]
I'd give my all to have
Just one more night with you
I'd risk my life to feel
Your body next to mine
'Cause I can't go on
Living in the memory of our song
I'd give my all for your love tonight

…

I'd give my all to have
Just one more night with you
I'd risk my life to feel
Your body next to mine
'Cause I can't go on
Living in the memory of our song
I'd give my all for your love tonight
Give my all for your love
Tonight…

My All (2024)

pov - Ariana Grande 💜

Lyrics:

It's like you got superpowers
Turn my minutes into hours
You got more than 20/20, babe
Made of glass the way you see through me

You know me better than I do
Can't seem to keep nothing from you
How you touch my soul from the outside?
Permeate my ego and my pride

I wanna love me
The way that you love me
Ooh, for all of my pretty
And all of my ugly too
I'd love to see me from your point of view

I wanna trust me
The way that you trust me
Ooh, 'cause nobody ever loved me like you do
I'd love to see me from your point of view

I'm gеtting used to receiving
Still gеtting good at not leaving
I'ma love you even though I'm scared (I’m scared)
Learnin' to be grateful for myself

You love my lips 'cause they say the
Things we've always been afraid of
I can feel it startin' to subside
Learnin' to believe in what is mine

Oh I wanna love me
The way that you love me
Ooh, for all of my pretty
And all of my ugly too
I'd love to see me from your point of view

I wanna trust me (trust me)
The way that you trust me (trust me)
Ooh, 'cause nobody ever loved me like you do
I'd love to see me from your point of view

I couldn't believe it or see it for myself
Boy, I be impatient, but now I'm out here
Falling, falling, frozen, slowly
Falling, got me right
I won't keep you waitin' (waitin')
All my baggage fadin' safely
And if my eyes deceive me
Won't let them stray too far away

I wanna love me (love me)
The way that you love me (love me)
Ooh, for all of my pretty
And all of my ugly too
I'd love to see me from your point of view

I wanna trust me, ooh
The way, the way you trust me
'Cause nobody ever loved me like you do
I'd love to see me from your point of view 
Yeah

To the universe: So I recorded this song in original key a year ago and dedicated it to a certain someone. Though I’m still in the process of mourning said someone, I now dedicate this version to me: I am so loved and I will soon love me as much as life does.

Lyrics: 

Intro: Can I sing, to you, ooh
Oh can I, oh can I, oh can I
Sing, ahh

I don't usually do this but, um 
Can I sing to you?

Yours, mine, ours
I could do this for hours
Sit and talk to you for hours
I wanna give you your flowers
And some champagne showers
Order shrimp and lobster towers
But it's me that gets devoured

Ooh, when you do what you do, I'm empowered 
You give me a superpower
Together, the world could be ours
You sit me up on the counter
Instantly, it's thunder showers
Stormin' for a couple hours
When we finished, take a shower

I could do this for hours
And hours and hours
I could do this for hours
And hours and hours
I could do this for hours
And hours and hours
I could do this for hours
And hours, hours

Usually don't like nobody
And when I say nobody, I mean nobody
All these fuckers full of shit
You're just a homie once they hit
Felt like givin' up on love
These fuckers almost made me quit

Then I met you
When I met you, I knew this was it
I've never been in love like this
A love like ours
I pray for it on my knees
Every night for some hours
And hours and hours
And hours and hours 

And hours
I could do this for hours
And hours and hours
I could do this for hours
And hours and hours
What's yours is mine and ours
And yours, mine and ours

I could sit and talk to you for hours
Sit and look at you for hours
Makin' love to you for hours
Layin' on your chest for hours
Tellin' you jokes for hours
Holdin' you close for hours
And hours and hours

Whoa, oh, oh 
Hours and hours 
Hours and hours
Oh, oh
Hours and hours
Hours and hours
Whoa, oh, hmm
Yeah

Transition: (We Might Even Be Fallin’ in Love)

Go head act a fool in it
Freestyle with me 'til you find your groove in it
U-haul 'cause I might let you move in it
'Cause I ain't had nobody hit it like you hit it
And it feels like
I'm gonna know you for the rest of my life
It's safe to say that we might even be falling in love

Ooh-ooh
Love, love, love
Ooh-ooh
Love, love, love

Hrs & Hrs + We Might Even Be Falling In Love (Acapella) (2023)

Heartbreaker - Mariah Carey 💔

A little acapella moment

Lyrics: 

Gimme your love x ♾️

Boy if I do
The things you want me to
The way I used to do
Would you love me, baby
Or left me feeling used?
Go and break my heart

Heartbreaker, you got the best of me 
But I just keep on coming back incessantly
Oh why, did you have to run your game on me
I should have known right from the start
You'd go and break my heart

(repeat with lil whistles)
