Acapella
Mary J Blige Feat. Method Man Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

How can I love somebody else
If I can't love myself enough to know
When it's time,
Time to let go
Sing

All I really want
is to be happy
And to find a love that's mine
It would be so sweet
It would be so sweet

I ask for the sign
From the sweet Lord above
I know the answer is in front of me
But when you think you're in love
You only see what you want to see
And all I see is me for you
And you for me

Oh I cannot hide the way I feel inside
(No I don't know why)
I don't know why but every day I want to cry
(Every day I want to cry)
If I give you one more try
To there rules, will you abide
And if I mean anything to you
Would it make everything all right

I just want to be so, so, happy
But the answer lies in me
I do believe
That we can be happy
I said I want to be happy, yeah

Life is too short
To be tryin' to play some games
Now take some time and think about
If it's really worth losing me
Why must it be this way
Why do you have to play with my mind
All the time
Help me sing it

All I really want is for me to be happy
Oh, just help me sing it
All I really want is for me to be happy
Yeah
All I really want is for me to be happy
Oh, you know I want to be happy, yeah, yeah

I don't want to have to worry about nothin no more
Said I want to be, said I want to be, said I want to be

All I really want
is to be happy
And to find a love that's mine




It would be so sweet
It would be so sweet
