Destiny's Child Lyrics

Second Nature
Why does love
Always seem so very hard
It's such a struggle
To win the reward
Because I'm playin'
With the wrong cards
But I think I got
The winning hand
There's something different
About you babe
That tells me I can
I say it's easy
For the things that I do
Never a question
Always a pleasure to
Love you love you love you

Chorus: Baby I won't say no
The love that you give is so
Im hooked and I can't let go
Of this love
It's so natural
So natural to give my love
It's so easy
Easy like second nature
Second nature
It's so natural
So natural to give my love
Like no other
Easy like second nature
Second nature

Thinkin' of you
Is the breath that I take
Just for your love
I can't wait
I could never think twice
It wakes me up in the morning
And the middle of the night
And with a smile on my face
I'm ready

Chorus



No No No Part II featuring Wyclef Jean
Wyclef: This is the remix
The jeeps pump this new remix
This is the remix
Radios play it

Chorus: You be sayin'
No no no no no
When it's really
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
(x 4)

Boy I know you want me
I can see it in your eyes
But you keep on frontin'
Why don't you say what's on your mind
'Cause each and everytime
You're near me
You give me signs
But when I ask you "What's the deal?"
You're holdin' it all inside
If you wanna' be with me
You gotta' keep it real
Tell me what's goin' on
Tell me how you feel
Boy I know you want me
Just as much as I want you
So come get my love
All here for you

Chorus

If you keep actin' this way
You're gonna' lose my love
I ain't got no time to play
You better hurry up
'Cause everytime I come around
And cruise by your way
I see you on the corner
But you don't know what to say
When I walk up to you baby
You seem so shy
What's the problem babe
Never had a girl like I
I can see right through you
And you know you wanna' be mine
So get your act together
'Cause you're runnin' out of time

Chorus

Everytime I see you
With your boys
You pretend as if
You don't want me
When you get home
You call me on the phone
And tell me
How much you care

Wyclef: Close your eyes shorty
You're guaranteed to be hypnotized
By the remix that Wyclef provide
I don't care 'bout your side
Girl shake your thighs
All I'm tryin' to do
In the hood is stay alive
Make a little money
With Desiny's Child
Thugs hear the song they dance
They go wild like Texas
They movin' like no limit soldiers
They went from a dream
To the young supremes
Sing it girls

Chorus




With Me Part I featuring Jermaine Dupri
JD: Everything you like is with me
So if you know like I know
This is where you need to be

Chorus: Do you ever wonder when he
Don't come home who he goes to see
And why in the middle of the night
He leaves you alone
Leaves you alone
He's with me
Do you ever wonder when he
Don't come home who he goes to see
Why in the middle of the night
He leaves you alone
'Cause everything he likes is with me

If I was in your shoes
I would have had to let him go
From the first sign of him tryin' to play
If he wants me to stay
You gotta' let all that go
You wanna' stick around
Not believin' what you see
Why you waitin'
Thinkin' everything's gonna' be okay
I got him right here with me

Chorus

I wanna' call you so bad
And tell you when it started
And what we do
How long it's been goin' on
Why he ain't gonna' never come home
I know what you been doin'
To make him stay
You see a bad performing
Unfulfilling woman drives a man away

Chorus

As far as I know
He's in good hands
So you can stop callin' around
Sayin' "Have you seen my man?"
Ain't no need for fuss and fight
Tryin' to make it right
Certain things ain't meant to be
And that's why that's why
He's right here with me

Jermaine: Everything you like is with me
So if you know like I know
This is where you need to be
(x4)

Chorus




Tell Me
Won't you just admit it
'Cause I don't need your gratitude
Don't you try to hide it
Just tell me the truth

I can't go on this way lookin' for something
That isn't there
Should I be on my way because I need
A reason for this pain

Chorus: Tell me
If you don't love me anymore
Just tell me
If you don't care about me anymore
Just tell me
If you don't want it
Just tell me

I never thought this day would come
But a test of love I need from you
Honesty is always seen through eyes
I wish you would believe

I've given you my all but it's not pleasin'
Your distant heart
If you respect my love you hear my plea
You hear my plea

Chorus




Bridges
I'll be your bridge you can use to
Whenever you need to

Chorus: I'll be your bridge you can use to
Whenever you need to
Get over problems in your way
And I will pick you up
Over mountains high
Together we'll walk over the bridge

There's a place where you can go
Lay your head down comfortable
And it's always there for sure
Don't you know
And it comes as no surprise
Mountains that you must climb
Sit back don't run away
Have no shame
There's no wrong
There's no right
It's only you and how
You treat your life
See baby if the road you choose
Don't work out for you
You know I'll be your rescue

Chorus

Like a diamond shining bright
You're young and flying high
Big dreams of having things
In your eyes
You thought it all
Would make it cash
But that's no mean
Don't ever last
Had to throw it all away
Hear me say
Let me take far away
You're sure to find your destiny
And you know without a doubt
That I will be there to bring you out

Chorus




No No No Part I
Chorus: You be sayin'
No no no no no
When it's really
Yes yes yes yes yes
(x 4)

Boy I know you want me
I can see it in your eyes
But you keep on frontin'
Why don't you say what's on your mind
'Cause each and everytime
You're near me
You give me signs
But when I ask you "What's the deal?"
You're holdin' it all inside
If you wanna' be with me

Tell me what's goin' on
Tell me how you feel
Boy I know you want me
Just as much as I want you
So come get my love
All here for you

If you keep actin' this way
You're gonna' lose my love

You seem so shy
What's the problem babe
Never had a girl like I
I can see right through you
And you know you wanna' be mine
So get your act together
'Cause you're runnin' out of time

Chorus

You won't regret
I must confess
I'm really feelin' you
Anything you ever wanted before
It's right here for you for you
Don't worry what they say
Just bring your love away
'Cause your friends can't do
What I can for you
I don't want to hear you say

No...
Yes...

All it takes is a beep to get near me
And mama always told me
I can tell a real girl
By the way that she hold me
I every night from the Jeep
But tonight girl
It's gonna' be you and me
Thugged out with more (???) champagne
I need strong bearin'
She's callin' my name
Howl it
She'd never leave me
And if you really wanna' be with me
Hug me and squeeze me
Real killers like to ride
So jump it
I'm callin' this from
Front back side to side
You be precious like a flower
And if you real girl
It ain't all about the (jza)?
But never mix business with pleasure
You really want me
Prove to me
That you'd die for whatever
Put on your soldier gear
Let's ride tonight
Thug love
Bubble bap it
Ain't no limit tonight
Girl if you wanna' be with me
if you wanna' be with me
Tell me you wanna' be with me
If you wanna' be with me

Chorus II (x6)




Show Me The Way
I wanna know
If I could get to know you
So many things baby
I can't wait to show you
I don't know
If you feel the same as I do
Give me a sign baby
Show me what to do

Can I be all you need
Can I be your everything
Baby the time is now
If you just show me how

Chorus: Show me the way to love you
Every night and every day
I'm thinkin' of you
All I need is just a chance
To love you
Show me the way baby
Show me the way the way

What would it take
For us to get together
I wanna know
Would you stay with me forever
Give me the chance
I know I can make you love me
Just say the word baby
Let me make you see

Can I be all you need
Can I be your everything
Baby the time is now
If you just show me how

Chorus

Show me the way
What would it take
For me to love you
Every night every day
I want you to know
I'm thinkin' of you

Chorus






Killing Time
Sitting on the stairway
Hoping that your okay
Waiting patiently
For you to come back to me
What should I do
I don't mind the waiting
As long as there's still maybe
A possibility
For you to be true to me
I'll be sitting on the stairway
'Til a quarter till two
With nothing to do baby
I twiddle my thumbs and wait

Chorus: Killing time
Waiting on you
What should I do
I'll be sitting here waiting
(x2)

Look inside your mirror
I'll hope that you see clearer
Look behind yourself
And you will find me
What should I do
I got your back baby
The love I have I'm saving
I'll be there for you
Just like I said I'll be
I'll be sitting on the stairway
'Til a quarter till three
With nothing to do baby
I twiddle my thumbs and wait

Chorus

Oh baby when you come back down
Don't forget the love you found in me
I know that your gonna take time
Remember I'm by your side
Don't worry I'm down for you
No matter what you're going through
I'll be there, I'll be there
Baby baby baby baby baby

Chorus




Illusion (featuring Wyclef & Pras of the Refugee Camp)
Went from a dream
To the young supreme

If you're searchin' for a destiny that's fine
There's another place another time
Touching many hearts along the way
Hoping that I'll never have to say
Boy I love you but I gotta' let you go

Chorus: Everyday in my mind is confusion
Thoughts of you brings illusions
Trapped in a whirlwind
Only you get in
My mind's playin' tricks on me again
(x2)

Follow your emotions everywhere
If there's really magic in the air
Never let your feelings let you down
Open up your eyes and look around
Boy I love you but I gotta' let you go

Chorus

Can it be a picture in my mind
Never sure exactly what I find
Only in my dreams I turn you on
For only a moment then you're gone
Boy I love you but I gotta' let you go

Chorus

Pras: I don't write love songs
Leave it up to Luther Vandross
How I choose to live
You don't wanna' know the cost
I pay to be the boss
Comin' straight from the source
Fortune five hundred
That's how I like to boss
Hot side Cornish style
Joyride blowin' Candles in the Wind
Like Princess Di
Lookin' at me
Mom tell me how you really like it
If we could fly high
I'd be your co-pilot

La-Tavia:Hey yo back to the girl
With all the razamatazz

Pras: I love you shorty


La-Tavia:Look at you talkin' all that jazz
Boy I love you but I gotta' let you go
I know you want me
But you play me like the lotto'
Cruisin' amusin' so there won't be no friction
I gotta' leave I can't be in this illusion

Chorus



Birthday
It's your birthday
You don't have to do nothin'

The time has come
And it's finally here
Have a candle light dinner
Or just settle down my dear
Whatever you like
Boy it's all up to you
We can celebrate baby
'Cause it's your birthday
Now close your eyes babe
Listen to the melody
Anything you want my sweet
Just ask me
It's the day for us to share
So leave your problems outta' here
It's right here in me
And make this day history

Chorus: It's your birthday
We could spend time together
We gonna' celebrate
You and me
It's your birthday
So baby blow out the candle
We gonna' celebrate
You know it's your birthday

I'm sending out invitations
To let all your friends know that
It's your birthday
But all that I really wanna' do
Is wrap you up and get in the groove
Keep you all to myself
It's your birthday
Now the mood is right now
And you don't have to fantasize
All your dreams could come true
But it's up to you
If you can't decide boy
Just give me all your mind
I got a surprise
A present that you'll like

Chorus

It's your birthday
You don't have to do nothin'
(repeat to fade)



Sail On
Sail on down the line honey
About half a mile or so
Don't really wanna' know
Where you're goin'
Maybe once or twice
You tell me everytime I try
Try to hold on to what you got
But now you're goin'

And I don't know
About the things
You're gonna' say Lord
I gave all my money
And my time
I know it's a shame
But I'm givin' you back your name
'Cause I'll be on my way
I won't be back to stay
I guess I'm movin' on
I'm lookin' for a good time

Sail on down the line honey
Funny how the time can go on
Friends say they told me so
But it doesn't matter
It was plain to see
That sometimes a girl like me
Just wasn't in your cup of tea
That was wishful thinkin'

I gave you my heart
And I tried to make you happy
And you gave me nothing
In return
You know it ain't so hard to say'
"Would you please just go away?"

I've thrown away the blues
I'm tired of bein' used
I want everyone to know
I've been lookin' for a good time

Sail on honey
Good times never felt so good
(repeat to fade)



My Time Has Come My Time Has Come
It's too far
It's too fast
It's too quick
It won't last
It's not right
But it's not wrong
There's no time
Move along

Chorus I: But I've come
Much too far
And I know what's in my heart
And I know what I feel
I can tell when it is real
My time has come

It's okay
Be afraid
It's alright
You just take that fear
Turn it in
To your strength
It's called life
And that's why we're here

Chorus II: And I've come
Much too far
And I know what's in my heart
And I know what I feel
And this time I know it's real
My time has come

And like the road below me
I know I'll touch the sky above
Million footprints around me
Tell me it can be done
My time has come

Chorus II

It's so close
It's been a long time come
It's here right now
And I know it'll last
It's so right
That it can't be wrong
Now's the time
For me to be strong

Chorus II

I know that I just gotta'
Keep movin' on
I know what's in my heart
I can feel it
My time has come
(x 6)



Know That Know That (Bonus Track)
I like the way I feel
The way you keep it real
So many simple things
That you don't know the joy you bring
I like how you an me work

I know that we'll always be down and be together

Any time you're feelin down

You know that.

You dont have to go nowhere

You let me do my thing
So many reasons why
I want you in my life
