Everytime You Go Away
Brian McKnight · Gemini [2005]
Can't believe you share my world
But it's real,
And every time that I hold you close to me
Forever is all that I can see
How it feels
See I don't give a damn what my homies say
Don't matter any way
See I never felt this way before
You leave a brother wanting more
I hate to see you go
Even though when I know when coming back
It's hard to breath without you girl
And baby that's a fact
I know sometime you have to leave
But I wish that you could stay
Every time you go away
From the very first time that I touched you babe
Couldn't find the words to say
You set me free,
And every time that I kiss your lips
Nothing ever tasted quite like this
Or got so deep,.
See I don't give a damn what my homies say
Don't matter any way
See I never ever felt this way before
You leave a brother wanting more
I hate to see you go
Even though when I know when coming back
It's hard to breath without you girl
And baby that's a fact
I know sometime you have to leave
But I wish that you could stay
Every time you go away
You're the sunshine of my day
You brighten up my life
You take a piece of me with you
Every time you say good bye
I hate to see you go
Even though when I know when coming back
It's hard to breath without you girl
And baby that's a fact
I know sometime you have to leave
But I wish that you could stay
Every time you go away
