Lyrics for Song: The Aaliyah Song
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Boyz II Men
Oooooh, aaliyah
Every once in awhile
I see her smile
It turns my day around
Girl with those eyes
Could stare through the lies
And see what your heart was saying
[CHORUS:]
Think of Aaliyah
Laugh, don't cry
I know
She'd want it that way
Hey yea
When ya think of Aaliyah
Laugh, don't cry
I know
She'd want it that way
Ooooooh
Friend of a friend
Friend 'til the end
That's the kind of girl she was
Taken away
So young
Taken away
Without a warning, oh
[CHORUS:]
(Think of Aaliyah, oooh)
Laugh, don't cry
(I know)
She'd want it that way
(Hey yeah)
(When ya') think of Aaliyah, (oooh)
Laugh , don't cry
(I know)
She'd want it that way
Whoa
I know you, (I know )
And your here, (and your here)
In every day we live, (day that we live, day we live)
I know her, (I know her)
And she's here, (and I know that she's still here)
I can feel her when she sings, (ooohhh)
[2ND CHORUS:]
Aaliyah, (Aaliyah)
Where are you now
(Are you far away from here)
(Far away), far away
I don't think so,(I tell you I don't think so)
I think your here
Yea
Taking our tears away,
[Shawn] Taking our tears (away)
(Think of Aaliyah)
(Laugh, don't cry)
(I know )
(She'd want it that way), she'd want it that way, (hey yea)
(When you think of Aaliyah)
(Laugh, don't cry) yeah, don't cry, don't cry
(I know)
(She'd want it that way), she'd want it that way
(Well I know)
She'd want it that, (want it that way)
(Aaliyah)
I know
She'd want it that way
(Aaliyah)
I know
She'd want it that way
(Aaliyah)

The Aaliyah Song
Boyz II Men's 1995 single "The Aaliyah Song" stands as a defining moment in R&B history, marking the group's transition from their signature balladry to a more rhythmic, funk-infused sound. Produced by the legendary Babyface, the track features a distinct groove that diverges from their earlier work on "Cooleyhighharmony," showcasing the group's versatility and willingness to experiment with new textures. The song was released during a pivotal era for the group, following the success of "End of the Road" and preceding their later evolution. It highlights the collaborative spirit of the Motown era, blending soulful vocals with a modern production style that would influence countless subsequent R&B recordings. As a standalone release without a specific album title, the track remains a standalone classic, celebrated for its infectious rhythm and the group's ability to adapt their sound while maintaining their core vocal identity. |
