SWEETHEART
R. Davis, P. Warner

 Boy haven't you noticed
 A gleam in my eye
 Because of you
 I'm a little hypnotized
 But every time you're with me
 I feel so positive
 Now with a little love
 Something's got to give

 BRIDGE:
 A full moon (yeah yeah)
 Is waiting in the twilight
 Maybe soon
 You will come to be my night
 Here we are
 Hoping that we never part
 Stay with me

 HOOK:
 Baby, won't you be my sweetheart
 We could share a storybook romance
 Won't you be my sweetheart
 We could share a storybook romance
 (What you think about, What you think about you and me baby going one on one)
 Just you and I

 You are no Casanova
 I know that you'll be true
 And that's why
 I'm so in love with you
 But each romantic ending
 You leave me at my door
 But tonight
 I'd like us to explore

 BRIDGE

 HOOK

 Stars are bright
 Mood is right
 (Say what MC baby sing it to me)
 To keep me warn away from harm
 Nowhere better than my baby's arms

 Stars are bright
 Mood is right
 (Say what MC baby sing it to me)
 To keep me warn away from harm
 Nowhere better than my baby's arms

 HOOK

 Let's get together
 Live happily ever after
 No one to make us sad
 Oh baby
 You know I need your love

WHEN YOU BELIEVE
Lyrics: Stephen Schwartz
Music: Stephen Schwartz, Kenny "Babyface" Edmonds

 Many nights we've prayed
 With no proof anyone could hear
 In our hearts a hopeful song
 We barely understood
 Now we are not afraid
 Although we know there's much to fear
 We were moving mountains
 Long before we knew we could

 CHORUS:
 There can be miracles
 When you believe
 Though hope is frail
 It's hard to kill
 Who knows what miracles
 You can achieve
 When you believe
 Somehow you will
 You will when you believe

 In this time of fear
 When prayer so often proves in vain
 Hope seemed like the summer birds
 Too swiftly flown away
 Yet now I'm standing here
 My heart's so full, I can't explain
 Seeking faith and speaking words
 I never thought I'd say

 CHORUS

 They don’t always happen when you ask
 And it’s easy to give in to your fears
 But when you’re blinded by your pain
 Can’t see your way clear through the rain
 A small, but still, resilient voice
 Says help is very near

 CHORUS

WHENEVER YOU CALL
Lyrics: M. Carey
Music: M. Carey, W. Afanasieff

 Love wandered inside
 Stronger than you
 Stronger than I
 And now that it has begun
 We cannot turn back
 We can only turn into one

 CHORUS:
 I won't ever be too far away to feel you
 And I won't hesitate at all
 Whenever you call
 And I'll always remember
 The part of you so tender
 I'll be the one to catch your fall
 Whenever you call

 And I'm truly inspired
 Finding my soul
 There in your eyes
 And you
 Have opened my heart
 And lifted me inside
 By showing me yourself
 Undisguised

 CHORUS

 And I will breathe for you each day
 Comfort you through all the pain
 Gently kiss your fears away
 You can turn to me and cry
 Always understand that I
 Give you all I am inside

 CHORUS

 I won't ever be too far away to feel you
 And I won't hesitate at all
 Whenever you call

 CHORUS

MY ALL
Lyrics: M. Carey
Music: M. Carey, W. Afanasieff

 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:
 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

 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

 Give my all for your love
 Tonight

HONEY
Lyrics: M. Carey
Music: M. Carey, S. Combs, S. Jordan, S. Haugh, B. Robinson, R. Larkin, L. Price

 Oh oh honey got me hooked on you

 C'mon MC C'mon MC
 I like that

 Oh honey you can have me when you want me
 If you simply ask me to be there
 And you're the only one who makes me come running
 'Cause what you got is far beyond compare

 CHORUS:
 And it's just like honey
 When you're love comes over me
 Oh baby I've got a dependency
 Always strung out for another taste of your honey
 It's like honey when it washes over me
 You know sugar never ever was so sweet
 And I'm dying for ya, crying for ya, I adore ya
 One hit of your love addicted me
 Now I'm strung out on you darling
 Don't you see
 Every night and day
 I can hardly wait
 For another taste of honey
 Honey I can't describe
 How good it feels inside
 Honey I can't describe
 How good it feels inside

 I can't be elusive with you honey
 'Cause it's blatant that I'm feeling you
 And it's too hard for me to leave abruptly
 'Cause you're the only thing I wanna do

 CHORUS

 Harlem world we won't stop
 For Mariah
 You're on fire
 Harlem world we won't stop
 So Mariah
 Take us higher
 Harlem world we won't stop
 For Mariah
 You're on fire
 Harlem world we won't stop
 So Mariah
 Take us higher
 Breakdown

 Whoa whoa every little thing you do

 Now, what we gonna do right here
 Is we gonna smooth it out
 C'mon

 Oh oh honey got me hooked on you

 MC
 And she won't stop

 CHORUS

ALWAYS BE MY BABY
Lyrics: Mariah Carey
Music: Jermaine Dupri, Mariah Carey, Manuel Seal

 We were as one babe
 For a moment in time
 And it seemed everlasting
 That you would always be mine
 Now you wanna be free
 So I'll let you fly
 'Cause I know in my heart babe
 Our love will never die

 CHORUS:
 You'll always be a part of me
 I'm part of you indefinitely
 Boy don't you know you can't escape me
 Ooh darling 'cause you'll always be my baby
 And we'll linger on
 Time can't erase a feeling this strong
 No way you're never gonna shake me
 Ooh darling 'cause you'll always be my baby

 I ain't gonna cry no
 And I won't beg you to stay
 If you're determined to leave boy
 I will not stand in your way
 But inevitably
 You'll be back again
 'Cause you know in your heart babe
 Our love will never end

 CHORUS

 I know that you'll be back boy
 When your days and your nights get a little bit colder
 I know that you'll be right back baby
 Oh baby believe me it's only a matter of time

 CHORUS

ONE SWEET DAY
Lyrics: Mariah Carey, Michael McCary, Nathan Morris, Wanya Morris, Shawn Stockman
Music: Mariah Carey, Walter Afanasieff

 Sorry I never told you
 All I wanted to say
 And now it's too late to hold you
 'Cause you've flown away
 So far away

 Never had I imagined
 Living without your smile
 Feeling and knowing you hear me
 It keeps me alive
 Alive

 CHORUS:
 And I know you're shining down on me from heaven
 Like so many friends we've lost along the way
 And I know eventually we'll be together
 One sweet day

 Darling I never showed you
 Assumed you'd always be there
 I took your presence for granted
 But I always cared
 And I miss the love we shared

 CHORUS

 Although the sun will never shine the same again
 I'll always look to a brighter day
 Lord I know when I lay me down to sleep
 You will always listen as I pray

 CHORUS

 Sorry I never told you
 All I wanted to say

FANTASY (BAD BOY W/O.D.B.)
Lyrics: Mariah Carey, Chris Frantz, Tina Weymouth
Music: Mariah Carey, Dave Hall, Chris Frantz, Tina Weymouth, Adrian Belew, Steven Stanley

 Keeping it real son
 That's right
 The shining star
 My shining star, girl

 Yo New York in the house
 Is Brooklyn in the house
 Uptown in the house
 Dallas are you in the house
 Boogie down are you in the house
 Sacramento in the house
 Atlanta, Georgia are you in the house
 West Coast are you in the house
 Japan are you in the house
 Everybody are you in the house
 Baby baby come on
 Baby come on
 Baby come on

 Oh when you walk by every night
 Talking sweet and looking fine
 I get kind of hectic inside
 Oh baby I'm so into you
 Darling if you only knew
 All the things that flow through my mind
 But it's just a sweet sweet

 CHORUS:
 I'm in heaven
 With my boyfriend
 My laughing boyfriend
 There's no beginning and there is no end
 Feels like I'm dreaming but I'm not sleeping
 Sweet fantasy
 Sweet fantasy

 Images of rapture
 Creep into me slowly
 As you're going to my head
 And my heart beats faster
 When you take me over
 Time and time and time again
 But it's just a

 CHORUS

 Ladies and gentlemen
 Introducing the ol' dirty doggy

 Here we go now
 Me and Mariah
 Go back like babies with pacifiers
 Ol' dirty dog no liar
 Kickin' fantasy hot like fire
 Jump jump
 And let me see you do the stump
 Girls let me see you shake your rump
 Brothers get in from the back and pump
 And let's do it do it do the hump

 I'm a little bit country
 I'm a little bit rock
 And I'm soul to soul
 Big letters all big and bold
 Ol' Dirty Bastard across the globe

 CHORUS

 What you gonna do when you get out of jail
 I'm gonna do a remix
 What you gonna do when you get out of jail
 I'm gonna do a remix
 What you gonna do when you get out of jail
 I'm gonna have some fun
 What you gonna do when you get out of jail
 I'm gonna have some fun

 CHORUS

HERO
Lyrics: Mariah Carey
Music: Mariah Carey, Walter Afanasieff

 There's a hero
 If you look inside your heart
 You don't have to be afraid
 Of what you are
 There's an answer
 If you reach into your sould
 And the sorrow that you know
 Will melt away

 CHORUS:
 And then a hero comes along
 With the strength to carry on
 And you cast your fears aside
 And you know you can survive
 So when you feel like hope is gone
 Look inside you and be strong
 And you'll finally see the truth
 That a hero lies in you

 It's a long road
 When you face the world alone
 No one reaches out a hand
 For you to hold
 You can find love
 If you search within yourself
 And the emptiness you felt
 Will disappear

 CHORUS

 Lord knows
 Dreams are hard to follow
 But don't let anyone
 Tear them away
 Hold on
 There will be tomorrow
 In time
 You'll find the way

 CHORUS

DREAMLOVER
Lyrics: Mariah Carey
Music: Mariah Carey, Dave Hall

 I need a lover to give me
 The kind of love
 That will last always
 I need somebody uplifting
 To take me away

 I want a lover who knows me
 Who understands how I feel inside
 Someone to comfort and hold me
 Through the long lonely nights
 'Till the dawn
 Why don't you take me away

 CHORUS:
 Dreamlover come rescue me
 Take me up take me down
 Take me anywhere you want to baby now
 I need you so desperately
 Won't you please colme around
 'Cause I wanna share forever with you baby

 I don't want another pretender
 To disillusion me one more time
 Whispering words of forever
 Playing with my mind

 I need someone to hold on to
 The kind of love that won't fly away
 I just want someone to belong to
 Everyday
 Of my life
 Always
 So come and take me away

 CHORUS

I'LL BE THERE
H. Davis, B. Gordy, W. Hutch, B. West

 You and I must make a pact
 We must bring salvation back
 Where there is love
 I'll be there

 I'll reach out my hand to you
 I'll have faith in all you do
 Just call my name
 And I'll be there

 CHORUS:
 I'll be there to comfort you
 I'll build my world of dreams around you
 I'm so glad I found you
 I'll be there with a love so strong
 I'll be your strength
 You know I'll keep holding on

 Let me fill your heart with joy and laughter
 Togetherness well it's all I'm after
 Just call my name
 And I'll be there

 I'll be there to protect you
 With an unselfish love that respects you
 Just call my name
 And I'll be there

 CHORUS

 If you should ever find someone new
 I know she better be good to you
 'Cause if she doesn't
 Then I'll be there

 Don't you know baby
 I'll be there
 I'll be there
 Just call my name
 And I'll be there

 I'll be there baby
 You know I'll be there
 Just call my name
 And I'll be there

 Just look over your shoulder
 Just call my name
 And I'll be there

EMOTIONS
Lyrics: Mariah Carey
Music: Mariah Carey, David Cole, Robert Clivilles

 CHORUS:
 You've got me feeling emotions
 Deeper than I've ever dreamed of
 You've got me feeling emotions
 Higher than the heavens above

 I feel good
 I feel nice
 I've never felt so
 Satisfied
 I'm in love
 I'm alive
 Intoxicated
 Flying high
 It feels like a dream
 When you touch me tenderly
 I don't know if it's real
 But I like the way I feel
 Inside

 CHORUS

 In the morning
 When I rise
 You are the first thing
 On my mind
 And in the middle
 Of the night
 I feel your heartbeat
 Next to mine
 If feels like a dream
 When you love me tenderly
 I don't know if you're for real
 But I like the way I feel
 Inside

 CHORUS

 You know the way to make me lose control
 When you're looking into my eyes
 You make me feel so
 High

 CHORUS

I DON'T WANNA CRY
Mariah Carey, Narada Michael Walden

 Once again we sit in silence
 After all is said and done
 Only emptiness inside us
 Baby look what we've become
 We can make a million promises
 But we still won't change
 It isn't right to stay together
 When you only bring each other pain

 CHORUS:
 I don't wanna cry
 Don't wanna cry
 Nothing in the world
 Could take us back
 To where we used to be
 Though I've given you my heart and soul
 I must find a way of letting go
 'Cause baby
 I don't wanna cry

 Too far apart to bridge the distance
 But something keeps us hanging on and on
 Pretending not to know the difference
 Denying what we had is gone
 Every moment we're together
 It's just breaking me down
 I know we swore it was forever
 But it hurts too much to stay around

 CHORUS

 All the magic's gone
 There's just a shadow of a memory
 Something just went wrong
 We can't go on make-believing
 On make-believing

 CHORUS

SOMEDAY
Mariah Carey, Ben Margulies

 You were so blind to let me go
 You had it all but did not know
 No one you'll find will ever be
 Closer to all your dreams than me
 Believing the grass would be greener
 You told yourself "I just don't need her now"
 But I know you'll soon discover
 You're never satisfied with any other

 CHORUS:
 Someday oo someday
 One you gave away will be the only one you're wishing for
 Someday hey hey
 Boy you're gonna pay 'cause baby I'm the one who's keeping score

 You'll change your mind and call my name
 Soon as you find they're all the same
 And when you find yourself alone
 Don't come back crying
 You should have known
 Believe me I'm not pretending
 It's not hard to predict this ending now
 'Cause I know you'll soon discover
 You're needing me in spite of all the others

 CHORUS

 Maybe now you just can't conceive
 That there'll ever come a time
 When you're cold and lonely
 Baby how could you ever believe
 That another could replace me
 The one and only
 But when you're down
 In your time of need
 And you're thinking
 That you might be coming back to own me
 Just think again
 'Cause I won't need your love anymore

 CHORUS

LOVE TAKES TIME
Mariah Carey, Ben Margulies

 I had it all
 But I let it slip away
 Couldn't see I treated you wrong
 Now I wander around
 Feeling down and cold
 Trying to believe that you're gone

 CHORUS:
 Love takes time
 To heal when you're hurting so much
 Couldn't see that I was blind
 To let you go
 I can't escape the pain
 Inside
 'Cause love takes time
 I don't wanna be here
 I don't wanna be here alone

 Losing my mind
 From this hollow in my heart
 Suddenly I'm so incomplete
 Lord I'm needing you now
 Tell me how to stop the rain
 Tears are falling down endlessly

 CHORUS

 You might say that it's over
 You might say that you don't care
 You might say you don't miss me
 You don't need me
 But I know that you do
 And I feel that you do
 Inside

 CHORUS

VISION OF LOVE
Mariah Carey, Ben Margulies

 Treated me kind
 Sweet destiny
 Carried me through desperation
 To the one that was waiting for me
 It took so long
 Still I believed
 Somehow the one that I needed
 Would find me eventually

 I had a vision of love
 And it was all that you've given to me

 Prayed through the nights
 Felt so alone
 Suffered from alienation
 Carried the weight on my own
 Had to be strong
 So I believed
 And now I know I've succeded
 In finding the place I conceived

 I had a vision of love
 And it was all that you've given to me
 I had a vision of love
 And it was all that you've given me

 I've realized a dream
 And I visualized
 The love that came to be
 Feel so alive
 I'm so thankful that I've received
 The answer that heaven
 Has sent down to me

 You treated me kind
 Sweet destiny
 And I'll be eternally grateful
 Holding you so close to me
 Prayed through the nights
 So faithfully
 Knowing the one that I needed
 Would find me eventually

 I had a vision of love
 And it was all that you've given to me
 I had a vision of love
 And it was all that you
 Turned out to be

I STILL BELIEVE
A. Armato, V. Cantarelli

 You look in my eyes
 And I get emotional inside
 I know it's crazy
 But you still can touch my heart
 And after all this time
 You'd think that I
 I wouldn't feel the same
 But time melts into nothing
 And nothing's changed

 CHORUS:
 I still believe
 Someday you and me
 Will find ourselves in love again
 I had a dream
 Someday you and me
 Will find ourselves in love again

 Each day of my life
 I'm filled with all the joy I could find
 You know that I
 I'm not the desperate type
 If there's one spark of hope
 Left in my grasp
 I'll hold it with both hands
 It's worth the risk of burning
 To have a second chance

 No, no, no, no, no, no I need you baby
 I still believe that we can be together
 If we believe that true love never has to end
 Then we must know that we will love again.

 CHORUS

 You and me baby going one on one
 JD y'all
 MC y'all
 I'm the man to fulfill your needs
 Get you everything that you see in your dreams
 Baby, lighten up and let nobody tear us apart
 And forever you'll be my sweetheart

 JD y'all
 MC y'all
 See, I saw you at the party
 With your eyes on me
 Fittin' the description
 Of what I want my bride to be
 As live as me
 Don't know the same guys as me
 But a lot of style
 And usin' wild name like Ivory
 I agree with my niggas
 You the baddest
 I ever seen in a long time
 A woman with her own shine
 Is her own time
 And I don't hit
 Cuz I'm tired of dealin'
 With the wrong kind
 Getting nothing but the bullsh*t
 She got a playa
 Tryin' to think of new things to say
 She up in the corner
 Sippin' Don P, Rosee
 Shakin' it up with her homegirls
 Payin' no attention to us
 They in their own world
 'Hey, yo, girl'
 I'm the man to fulfill your needs
 Get you everything you see in your dreams
 Baby, lighten up and let nobody tear us apart
 And forever you'll be my sweetheart
