Back at One

Brian McKnight R&B English

Vocabulary from Brian McKnight: 'Back at One'.

It's undeniable that we should be together

It's unbelievable

How I used to say that I'd fall never

The basis is need to know

If you don't know just how I feel

Then let me show you now that I'm for real

If all things in time, time will reveal

Yeah

One: You're like a dream come true

Two: Just wanna be with you

Three: Girl, it's plain to see

That you're the only one for me

And four: Repeat steps one through three

Five: Make you fall in love with me

If ever I believe my work is done

Then I start back at one

Yeah, yeah

It's so incredible

The way things work themselves out

And all emotional

Once you know what it's all about, babe

And undesirable for us to be apart

Never would've made it very far

'Cause you know you've got the keys to my heart

'Cause

One: You're like a dream come true

Two: Just wanna be with you

Three: Girl, it's plain to see

That you're the only one for me

And four: Repeat steps one through three

Five: Make you fall in love with me

If ever I believe my work is done

Then I start back at one

Say farewell to the dark of night

I see the coming of the Sun

I feel like a little child

Whose life has just begun

You came and breathed new life

Into this lonely heart of mine

You threw out the life-line

Just in the nick of time

One: You're like a dream come true

Two: Just wanna be with you

Three: Girl, it's plain to see

That you're the only one for me

And four: Repeat steps one through three

Five: Make you fall in love with me

If ever I believe my work is done

Then I start back at one
