These are the songs I feel bring a lot of meaning to the Imzadi relationship. As always, all of this belongs strictly to the artists/writers/producers. I own nadda. I only wish I did.
Last Dance By Brian McKnight
Do we know more than
We knew then
Or do we know less
And we just pretend
Should I ignore my heart
And walk away
Your eyes tell me more
Than words will ever say
Should we take a chance
And dance the last dance
Should we spend the night
One more time
Caught up in this romance
Or maybe wait and see
Let it be
The way that it will be
Should we take a chance
And dance the last dance
How can I be wrong
When I feel the way I feel
How can I deny
Emotion that's so real
In the middle of the night
I call out your name
Do I ever cross your mind
Do you feel the same
Like we should take a chance
And dance the last dance
We should spend the night
One more time
Caught up in this romance
Or maybe wait and see
Let it be
The way that it will be
Should we take a chance
And dance the last dance
Let me go
Come to me
Which way is the way
That it should be
This is so bittersweet
There's no way
That we will ever know
For sure
Unless we take a chance
And dance the last dance
We should spend the night
One more time
Caught up in this romance
Or maybe wait and see
Let it be
The way that it will be
Should we take a chance
And dance the last dance
Stay By Brian McKnight
It's been, too long
Since last I saw your face
You been keeping it, tight and everything
Appears to be in its proper place
We laughed about, back in '94
Reminiscing, I'm hoping
For a little old time's sake
Can you stay, can you stay
Do you, want me
Anything like I want you
Your body's calling
Tell me you can hear it too
I'm still crazy for you
What are we going to do
Can you stay, stay
The night is, young and
A familiar mood fills the air
I pour the wine
And run my fingers through your hair
The mojos working
Can you feel it
It's almost time to reveal it
Let's fly away
What do ya say
Do you, want me
Anything like I want you
Your body's calling
Tell me you can hear it too
I'm still crazy for you
What are we going to do
Can you stay, stay
Don't you worry 'bout a thing girl
Everything's all right, all right
See the smile upon my face
Cause we're together, together
Let's forget about the past
That was yesterday, yesterday
But today is today
Stay
Do you, want me
Anything like I want you
Your body's calling
Tell me you can hear it too
I'm still crazy for you
What are we going to do
Can you stay, stay
Back At One By Brian McKnight
It's undeniable
That we should be together
It's unbelievable
How I used to say
That I'd fall never
The basis is need to know
If you don't know just how I feel
Then let me show you now
That I'm for real
If all things in time
Time will reveal
One
You're like a dream come true
Two
Just wanna be with you
Three
Girl it's plain to see
That you're the only one for me, and
Four
Repeat steps one through 3
Five
Make you fall in love with me
If ever I believe my work is done
Than I start back at one
It's so incredible
The way things work themselves out
And all emotional
Once you know what it's all about, hey
And undesirable
For us to be apart
I never would have made it very far
Cause you know you got the keys
To my heart
One
You're like a dream come true
Two
Just wanna be with you
Three
Girl it's plain to see
That you're the only one for me, and
Four
Repeat steps one through 3
Five
Make you fall in love with me
If ever I believe my work is done
Than I start back at one
Say farewell to the dark of night
I see the coming of the sun
I feel like a little child
Whose life has just begun
You came and breathed new life
Into this lonely heart of mine
You threw out the lifeline
Just in the nick of time
One
You're like a dream come true
Two
Just wanna be with you
Three
Girl it's plain to see
That you're the only one for me, and
Four
Repeat steps one through 3
Five
Make you fall in love with me
If ever I believe my work is done
Than I start back at one
Can You Read My Mind By Brian McKnight
When I'm all alone at night
I can hear the beating of your heart
I should tell you and I might
Before it tears me apart
All I ever think about
All I ever dream about
Can you read my mind
Can you read my mind
Don't wanna look at you
I probably should go
Cause I wanna be with you
More than you'll ever know
For a taste of you
Object of my desire
Baby you blow my mind
You light my fire
I want you
Need you
Can't live without you
When I'm all alone at night
I can hear the beating of your heart
I should tell you and I might
Before it tears me apart
All I ever think about
All I ever dream about
Can you read my mind
Can you read my mind
Is this the way I feel
Or curiosity
All the things you do
That bring out the lust in me
The thought of me and you
Drives me wild
Come close to me
Can you stay awhile
I want you
Need you
Can't live without you
When I'm all alone at night
I can hear the beating of your heart
I should tell you and I might
Before it tears me apart
All I ever think about
All I ever dream about
Can you read my mind
Can you read my mind

Bedtime By Usher
Craving your body all through the night
Feels like I'm going through withdraws
I wanna hold you
I want you inside of these arms
I'm dying to taste you, I can't deny
Can't get it out of my mind
Please let me hold you
Cause I need your loving tonight
Whenever I'm near you
My love just comes down
Whenever I see you
I just want you around
Cause I wanna feel you all through the day and the night
Whenever I'm near you
It feels like bedtime
Constantly thinking of things to do
Places where we can make love
I wanna freak you
I'll freak you wherever you want
Placing my kisses all over you
Caressing you so nice and slow
Oh how I want you
Girl there's something I want you to know
Whenever I'm near you
My love just comes down
Whenever I see you
I just want you around
Cause I wanna feel you all through the day and the night
Whenever I'm near you
It feels like bedtime
I get so lonely
Thinking about you
You're the only girl
I ever dream of or think of all
I'm so into you
Outta my mind for you
Say you can't go through a day without you
Girl I love and I want you
And I need you, I need you, I need you
Whenever I'm near you
My love just comes down
Whenever I see you
I just want you around
Cause I wanna feel you all through the day and the night
Whenever I'm near you
It feels like bedtime
I Wanna Love You Forever By Jessica Simpson
You set my soul at ease
Chased darkness out of view
Left your desperate spell on me
Say you feel it too
I know you do
I've got so much more to give
This can't die, I yearn to live
Pour yourself all over me
And I'll cherish every drop here on my knees
I wanna love you forever
And this is all I'm asking of you
10 thousand lifetimes together
Is that so much for you to do?
Cuz from the moment that I saw your face
And felt the fire in your sweet embrace
I swear I knew
I'm going to love you forever
My mind fails to understand
What my heart tells me to do
And I'd give up all I have just to be with you
And now I do
I've always been taught to win
I never thought I'd fall,
Be at the mercy of a man
I've never been
Now I only want to be right where you are.
I wanna love you forever
And this is all I'm asking of you
10 thousand lifetimes together
Is that so much for you to do?
Cuz from the moment that I saw your face
And felt the fire in your sweet embrace
I swear I knew
I'm going to love you forever
In my life I learned that Heaven never waits
Lets take this love before its gone like yesterday
Cuz when I'm with you
There's no where else that I would ever wanna be
I'm breathing for the next second I can feel you loving me
I wanna love you forever
And this is all I'm asking of you
10 thousand lifetimes together
Is that so much for you to do?
Cuz from the moment that I saw your face
And felt the fire in your sweet embrace
I swear I knew
I'm going to love you forever
My Wonderful By Jessica Simpson
Time when I was down and out
No loving in my life
This angel came and brought about
A meaning of so right
Took my dark and lonely days into the light
With his loving ways
CHORUS:
He's my wonderful
Everything a girl could want to love
And all I need
Yes he's my wonderful
He must have been sent from up above
Just for me
I gotta have him close to me
Each and every night
To give me that security
Of dreaming and delight
Love has got a grip on me
Oh so tight
Hope he never lets go
CHORUS
Cause I don't ever want to be free
From this love and care that more people will never see
And at night I pray that I'll have my way
And your love for eternity
CHORUS
No one could ever do for me
The things he does cause
CHORUS x2
A time when I was down and out
No loving in my life
This angel came and brought about
A meaning of so right
And took my dark and lonely days
Into the light with his loving ways
Oh Yeah
I said he's everything
All I need la la la la la la...
If She Only Knew By 98°
If she only knew
What I knew but couldn't say
If she could just see
The part of me that I hid away
If I could just hold her in my arms again
And just say I love you
But she's gone away, maybe she'd stay
If she only knew
If she could just feel
What I feel here in my heart
She'd know it was real
Pure and true right from the start
But I'm just a man who didn't understand
What she was going through
But she's gone away, maybe she'd stay
If she only knew
And how, how did I let her get away
'Cause love, love is so easy to feel
But the hardest thing to say
If she could just see
What I see when I close my eyes
All that I dream
Surely she would realize
But like a fool I waited much too long
To let her know the truth
She's gone away, maybe she'd stay
If she only knew
2nd Bridge
Tell me, tell me how
How did I let her get away (Tell me)
Cause I guess that love
Love is so easy to feel
But the hardest thing to say
If she only knew
What I knew but could not say
If she could just see
The part of me that I hid away
If I could just hold her in my arms again
And just say I love you, I love you
She's gone away, maybe she'd stay
If she only knew, if she only knew
Against All Odds By Mariah Carey
How can I just let you walk away
Just let you leave without a trace
When I stand here taking
Every breath with you
You're the only one
Who really knew me at all
How can you just walk away from me
When all I can do is watch you leave
'Cause we've shared the laughter and the pain
And even shared the tears
You're the only one
Who really knew me at all
So take a look at me now
Oh there's just an empty space
And there's nothing left here to remind me
Just the memory of your faceTake a look at me now
'Cause there's just an empty space
And you coming back to me is against all odds
And that's what I've got to face
I wish I could just make you turn around
Turn around and see me cry
There's so much I need to say to you
So many reasons why
You're the only one
Who really knew me at all
So take a look at me now
'Cause there's just an empty space
And there's nothing left here to remind me
Just the memory of your face
Take a look at me now
'Cause there's just an empty space
But to wait for you is
All I can do
And that's what I've got to face
Take a good look at me now
'Cause I'll still be standing here
And you coming back to me is against all odds
That's the chance I've got to take
Take a look at me now
Butterfly By Mariah Carey
When you love someone so deeply they become your life
It's easy to succumb to overwhelming fears inside
Blindly I imagined I could
Keep you under glass
Now I understand to hold you, I must open up my hands
And watch you rise
Chorus:
Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly
Fly abandonedly into the sun
If you should return to me
We truly were meant to be
So spread your wings and fly
Butterfly
I have learned that beauty has to flourish in the light
Wild horses run unbridled or their spirit dies
You've given me the courage to be all that I can
And I truly feel your heart will lead you back to me
When you're ready to land
Chorus
I can't pretend these tears aren't overflowing steadily
I can't prevent this hurt from almost overtaking me
But I will stand and say goodbye
For you'll never be mine
Until you learn the way it feels to fly
Chorus
My All By Mariah Carey
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've drowned in you
And I won't pull through
Without you by my side
Chorus 1
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 yet you're so far
Like a distant star
I'm wishing on tonight
Chorus 2
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
** Guitar Break
Chorus 3
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
On The Side Of Angels By LeAnn Rimes
I've never been so certain, I've never been sure
We're on the side of angels
If we believe this love is pure
Is it so hard to trust it
'Cause we've been wrong before
There comes a time in every life
We find the heart we're waiting for
Chorus:
After all the might-have-beens
The close and distant calls
After all the try-agains
Don't be afraid to fall
We're on the side of angels after all
Every time you touch me
Don't you feel it too
The gentle hand that's guiding us
You to me, me to you
Chorus
Heaven only knows
Why this took so long
But only Heaven knows
A love is right or wrong
Chorus
How Do I Live By LeAnn Rimes
How do I,
Get through the night without you
If I had to live without you
What kind of life would that be
Oh, I, I need you in my arms, need you to hold
You're my world, my heart, my soul
If you ever leave
Baby you would take away everything good in my life,
Chorus:
And tell me now
How do I live without you
I want to know
How do I breathe without you, if you ever go
How do I ever, ever survive
How do I, how do I, oh how do I live
Without you, there'd be no sun in my sky
There would be no love in my life
There'd be no world left for me
And I, baby I don't know what I would do I'd be lost if I lost you
If you ever leave
Baby you would take away everything real in my life,
Chorus
Please tell me baby
How do I go on, if you ever leave,
Baby you would take away everything
I need you with me
Baby don't you know that you're everything
Real in my life
Chorus
