At an early age, Price's musical talents began to dominate her life. While most babies have to be taken from the crib and calmed from crying in the middle of the night, Price's mother has told of the times when the entire house would be awakened by the sound of a young Price singing out in her crib while the rest of the family tried to sleep. As a young child, Price knew that music was more than just something that happened on the radio, in church, or even during the commercials on TV. For her it was a part of life that quickly became a necessity. She became emotionally dependant on the music inside of her and quickly learned how to use music as an outlet to express what she was feeling even when she couldn’t speak about it. One day after experiencing deep sadness from a book she read for a Black history project in school, Kelly wrote a song to express her unexplainable emotions; this was her first song at only 7 years old.
Price sang on her first recording before the age of 10 and by the time she was 18, Price was recording and touring the world with multi-platinum pop diva Mariah Carey. Always a quick study, Kelly watched and learned the intricacies of studio and production work and soon after began to expand into areas other than just background singing. It was during these early years of her professional career that Price refers to as her formal education. While her classmates attended college to prepare for their careers, she went to work everyday and studied with the entertainment industry’s best to prepare for what would soon be her own music career. During these years and beyond, Price has shared her multiple musical gifts with many artists and reached the number one spot on Billboard several times before anyone even knew what the woman behind the voice and the pen looked like. Throughout her career, Price has sung for, recorded with, toured with, wrote songs for, arranged and produced music for George Michael, Mariah Carey, Aretha Franklin, Brian McKnight, LL Cool J, Ben Tankard, Mary J. Blige, Puff Daddy, Brandy, The LOX, Donnie McClurkin, The Williams Brothers, Faith Evans, Karen Clarke-Sheard, Yolanda Adams, MASE, Whitney Houston, Mary Mary, The Notorious B.I.G, Richard Smallwood, R. Kelly, Eric Clapton, Wynona Judd, Gerald Levert, Angela Winbush, The Isley Bros and the legendary Ronald Isley just to name a few. Though many record labels initially pursued Price as a recording artist, it was her connection with Isley and his relentless persistence that convinced her to begin to use her musical talents for herself resulting in a formal alliance between Isley and Price that birthed her solo career with the album Soul of A Woman in 1998 that featured the #1 hit women’s anthem of the year “Friend of Mine”, penned by Price herself.
She would follow with the platinum success of Mirror Mirror in 2000, One Family: A Christmas Album in 2002 and the critically acclaimed Priceless in 2003.
In October 2005, Price recorded her first live gospel project. The This Is Who I Am album was released on October 24, 2006 on her own label, EcclecticSounds Records. It debuted at #1 on the Billboard Gospel Charts and peaked at #9 on the R&B album chart.
Price was inducted as an honorary member of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc. in July 2006.
In early 2007, Price kicked off a tour with the "Sisters in the Spirit 2007".
In 2006, she recorded the song "Why?" for the soundtrack Why Did I Get Married?, a film version of the stage play of the same name she once acted in, playing the role of Sheila.
In early 2009, Price was featured on Coko's gospel album entitled The Winner In Me on the track "Oh Mary".
In June 2010, Price promoted her single "Tired" on The Jazz Joy and Roy syndicated radio show as "some of the best work of my career to date."
In September 2009, it was announced she would be joining Deborah Cox and Tamia to form the super group The Queen Project. The women seek to empower women of all ages, races and backgrounds by doing a number of community service projects. In September 2010, Kelly announced via her official Twitter profile that her new solo album Kelly will be released in 2011. Her second single "Not My Daddy" debuted on R&B charts at #87.

Kelly Price Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That's the way it was
Happened so naturally
I did not know it was love
The next thing I felt was
You holding me close
What was I gonna do?
I let myself go
And now we're flyin' through the stars
I hope this night will last forever
I've been waitin' for you
It's been so long
I knew just what I would do
When I heard your song
Filled my heart with your bliss
Gave me freedom
You knew I could not resist
I needed someone
And now we're flyin' through the stars
I hope this night will last forever
Oh oh oh oh
[Chorus]
Ain't nobody
Loves me better
Makes me happy
Makes me feel this way
Ain't nobody
Loves me better than you
I wait for night time to come
And bring you to me
Can't believe I'm the one
I was so lonely
I feel like no one could feel
I must be dreamin'
I want this dream to be real
I need this feelin'
I make my wish upon a star
And hope this night will last forever
Oh oh oh oh
[Chorus]
And first you put your arms around me
Then you put your charms around me
I can't resist this sweet surrender
Oh my nights are warm and tender
We stare into each other's eyes
And what we see is no surprise
Got a feeling most with treasure
And a love so deep we cannot measure
[Chorus]

Captured effortlessly
It all happened so smoothly, without any real effort
That's the way it was
That's simply how things unfolded
Happened so naturally
It came about as if it was meant to be
I did not know it was love
I was caught off-guard, didn't realize it was true love at first sight
The next thing I felt was
Before I knew it, the experience took over my emotions
You holding me close
Feeling your arms around me was pure bliss
What was I gonna do?
I was helpless; surrendering to the moment
I let myself go
I allowed myself to be present and immerse myself in the experience
And now we're flyin' through the stars
The feeling is so ecstatic; as if we're soaring through the galaxy
I hope this night will last forever
I wish we could stay in this surreal moment eternally
I've been waitin' for you
I've been waiting for a love like you all my life
It's been so long
I've been patiently waiting for a while
I knew just what I would do
I had a good idea of how I'd react when I found you
When I heard your song
Upon finding you, I felt an instant connection both emotionally and musically
Filled my heart with your bliss
The love I received from you brought me a sense of complete satisfaction and happiness
Gave me freedom
Your love also brought me a sense of liberation and self-expression
You knew I could not resist
Your love was so undeniable I couldn't help but fall for you
I needed someone
I was longing for someone who'd love me right
And now we're flyin' through the stars
Our love is so intense and incredible; we're soaring above it all
I hope this night will last forever
I wish we could keep this moment and our love always
Ain't nobody
There is nobody else
Loves me better
Loves me in a way that is special and unique
Makes me happy
Brings me immense happiness
Makes me feel this way
In a way that nobody else can
Loves me better than you
Your love is unparalleled and incomparable to anyone else's
I wait for night time to come
I can't wait for the night to fall and hold you again
And bring you to me
So I can be near you again
Can't believe I'm the one
I can't help but feel fortunate to be with you
I was so lonely
I was without love or true companionship
I feel like no one could feel
I thought no one could truly relate to and understand me
I must be dreamin'
It feels like a surreal dream
I want this dream to be real
But at the same time, I want it to be a living reality
I need this feelin'
I need the love and emotions you bring me to survive
I make my wish upon a star
I wish for our love to remain eternal and never fade away
And hope this night will last forever
I hope that this moment of pure love and joy will never end
And first you put your arms around me
I remember feeling your embrace for the first time
Then you put your charms around me
I also remember feeling your irresistible charisma and charm
I can't resist this sweet surrender
I was completely taken aback and submitted myself completely to you
Oh my nights are warm and tender
Our nights together are filled with warmth and tenderness
We stare into each other's eyes
Whenever we look into each other's eyes, we connect so deeply
And what we see is no surprise
Our mutual love and understanding is not surprising, but natural and meant to be
Got a feeling most with treasure
There's a feeling between us that is invaluable and special
And a love so deep we cannot measure
Our love is too profound and immense to be measured by any means
Ain't nobody
There is nobody else that could bring us such happiness and love
Loves me better
Our love for each other is incomparable to anything else
Makes me happy
We bring each other pure and genuine joy
Makes me feel this way
In a way that nobody else can
Loves me better than you
Your love is unparalleled and incomparable to anyone else's
