Vibin'
Boyz II Men Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Just take a minute and catch the vibe
Just take a minute and catch the vibe
Just take a minute and catch the vibe
Just take a minute and catch the vibe

Coolin' in the studio you know how the story goes
Bobbin' our heads to the tune we're about to do
It's a laid back swing thang
The groove we feel is strong,
We need peace here to get it on
Having fun as we go, makin' sure the flavor shows
'Cause we're feeling alright
Takin' the time to freeze our minds and have a ball, ya'll
Everything's fine it ain't nothing to it 'cause
We're gonna do it all, what are

We're just vibin' dancing the night away
Groovin', vibin', don't stop until the break of day

In the dark room, where the groove right
In the basement music just right
Nothing goin' down but the mellow sounds
Of Mr. DJ's turntable's goin' round
A mad sensation, a crew of women around sparks inspiration
To set something off the right way to hear the people say
That we're feelin' alright
Takin' the time to freeze our minds and have a ball, ya'll
Everything's fine it ain't nothing to it
'Cause we're gonna do it all, don't you know that

We're just vibin' dancing the night away
Groovin', vibin', don't stop until the break of day

We're just vibin' dancing the night away
Groovin', vibin', don't stop until the break of day

Just take a minute and catch the vibe
Put your mind at ease, just catch the vibe

Just take a minute and catch the vibe
Don't press yourself, just catch the vibe

Just take a minute and catch the vibe
Put your mind at ease, just catch the vibe

Just take a minute and catch the vibe
Don't press yourself, just catch the vibe

We're just vibin' dancing the night away
Groovin', vibin', don't stop until the break of day

Just take a minute and catch the vibe
Put your mind at ease, just catch the vibe

Just take a minute and catch the vibe
Don't press yourself, just catch the vibe

Just take a minute and catch the vibe
Put your mind at ease, just catch the vibe

Just take a minute and catch the vibe
Don't press yourself, just catch the vibe





We're just vibin' dancing the night away
Groovin', vibin', don't stop until the break of day
