in love with mariah carey (again)

seriously, i love her songs. During her heydays around 10-15 years ago. She has really nice vocals, nice songs. One of the few people who could do R&B well in my opinion.

the later albums after 2000 weren't that good. Together with her transformation into a sex bomb image, i thought that was the end of her. She shouldn't have tried to sell her songs using her figure. I mean, the songs sold themselves. Fast forward, i tried listening a few months back, not that good either. But the latest album sounded good to me suddenly today.

press the button and listen. Using your earbuds... not $10 speaker.

I Stay In Love
Baby, I stay in love with you

Dying inside cause I can't stand it
Make or break up
Can't take this madness
We don't even really know why
All I know is baby I
Try and try so hard
To keep our love alive
If you dont' know me at this point
Then I highly doubt you ever will
I really need you to give me
That unconditional love I used to feel
It's no mistaking
We're just erasing
From our hearts and minds

And I know we said let go
But I kept on hanging on
Inside I know it's over
You're really gone
It's killing me
Cause there ain't nothing
That I can do
Baby, I stay in love with you

And I keep on telling myself
That you'll come back around
And I try to front like 'Oh well'
Each time you let me down
See I can't get over you
Now no matter what I do
Baby, baby
I stay in love with you

Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
Baby, I stay in love with you

It cuts so deep
It hurts down to my soul
My friends tell me
I ain't the same no more
We still need each other
When we stumble and fall
How we gon' act
Like what we had
Ain't nothin' at all

What I wanna do is
Ride shot-gun next to you
With the top down like we used to
Hit the block
....................
We both know our heart is breaking
Can we learn from our mistakes
I can't last one moment alone

We said let go
But I kept on hanging on
Inside I know it's over
You're really gone
It's killing me
Cause there ain't nothing
That I can do
Baby, I stay in love with you

And I keep on telling myself
That you'll come back around
And I try to front like 'Oh well'
Each time you let me down
See I can't get over you
Now no matter what I do
Baby, baby
I stay in love with you


there was a paragraph i couldn't really understand in the lyrics. I think you'd know what. Anyone knows? I'm not thinking straight though. lol...
