Beat Goes On, Live In Concert

Another day has come and gone
In a world where I don't belong
Another week has passed me by
It's not because I didn't try

Nobody saw me walking
And nobody heard me talking
Seems like I gotta do wrong,
Gotta do wrong, gotta do wrong
Before they notice me

Another job that I just can't get
A nice apartment, the landlord jut won't rent
I go to bed, but my sleep just won't come
My belly's empty and my brain is numb

Nobody saw me walking
And nobody heard me talking
Seems like I gotta do wrong,
Gotta do wrong, gotta do wrong
Before they notice me

Seems like I gotta do wrong
Before they notice me

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

I go to bed, but my sleep just won't come
My belly's empty and my brain is numb

Nobody saw me walking
And nobody heard me talking
Seems like I gotta do wrong,
Gotta do wrong, gotta do wrong
Before they notice me

Yes, I do, oh, yeah
Seems like I gotta do wrong,
Gotta do wrong, gotta do wrong
Before they notice me

Come here
Let's talk dear
There are things inside me
I want you to hear

I want to soak into you like rain
Make love until my energy drains
And as lust erases all shame
You'll scream my name out of pleasure, not pain

If you just say yes
(Girl, if you would only say yes)
I will do the rest
(I'll do the rest)

Come here
This is your hour
Ooh, like raindrops on a flower
Come bathe in my love shower

Then let me blow your body dry
Kiss the tears from your sexy eyes
And as our passion begins to rise
We'll lay hypnotized by the pleasure inside

If you just say yes
(Girl, if you would only say yes)
Please say yes, I'll do the rest
(I'll do the rest)

Oh, I want to build you a dream home
Made of love, not just wood and stone
Give you the deed to all that I own
Give you love beyond limit
Give you babies in our image

If you just say yes
(Girl, if you would only say yes)
Please say yes, I'll do the rest
(I'll do the rest)

If you just say yes
(Girl, if you would only say yes)
Ooh baby
(Say yes)
I will do the rest

Have you ever been kissed from head to toe
Down your back, around your navel
Well, you got that comin', my sweet
And even more tricks and treats
I'm willing and I'm able

Because I love you
Really, really love you
And I'm so damn proud of you, baby

Say yes
(Girl, if you would only say yes)
I will do the rest
(I'll do the rest)

If you just say yes
(Girl, if you would only say yes)
I will do the rest
(Say yes)

Say yes
(Girl, if you would only say yes)

People speak your name
And think what a shame you're gone
Still they know
What you've left behind
Lives in our hearts and minds
Today and tomorrow

The clouds of darkness came your way
You've given us a brighter day
And your music will be
So very, very special to me

Sometimes wealth and fame
Whispered, "Play my game"
But you, yes, you refused to
Genius touched your soul
Fortune not your gold
God's gift is what changed you

A voice like silk would weave your spell
And words of life, oh, only you tell
And your music is gonna be
Very, very special to me

In life's fleeting glance
You have met the chance to give
All they can't
And though short you stayed
Before you went away with them
Now you stand

Listening to your sounds of joy
I think one shot, ghetto boy
And your music will always be
So very, very special to me

Said I love you, Donny
And you're gonna always be
Very, very, very special to me
Gonna miss one shot, little ghetto boy
This is a song for you

Said I love you, Donny, and I miss you, Donny
You're gonna always be a friend to me
Miss you, Donny
Yeah, I miss you, Donny
