Anita Baker - It's Been You
I had a dream
A love dream so tender
You were with me old friend
We gave in to sweet surrender
And I've held it in through October,
November
No wonder...
I never been the same since then
I picked up my phone
A million times to call you
But I lost my nerve
Cause every time I saw you
Like a lovesick kid,
Child it was my paranoia
You'd laugh, but instead
You read these thoughts inside my head
And its you...
(Chorus:)
Its been you all the time
You're changing my whole state of mind
It took just a minute
But now that I'm in it
Its you
Its been you all the time
Like somebody turned on a light
You're gonna watch me shine
Its been you all the time
Now when you smile
The world opens up for me
You're just my style
And inside I do believe
We're two of a kind
How could I be so blind
My heart, its sincere
I believe I've wanted you for years and years
(Repeat Chorus)
Now to think you've always been right here
And loneliness has been my greatest fear
Until I saw the answers in your eyes
Yes I did
And at last its clear
Now I see that
You're the only one....for me....
(Repeat Chorus til fade)
