About You Lyrics by Mary J. Blige

The Breakthrough

2005

[Intro: will.i.am]
Mary J, will.i.am, in the place with the love
Yeah, it feels
It feels good
Mary J, will.i.am
Tell 'em how you feel
[Verse 1: Mary J]
Boy, you got me goin' crazy
I don't know what to say anymore
'Cause still I wanna be your lady
You know that I would never walk out that door
I'm not giving up on us but
Things can get a little hard in this life
But you know, you know I love you
[Chorus: Mary J]
You're everything I ever wanted
Everything I've never wanted
In a man, can't you see
What you're doing to me?
I'm sayin' yes and sayin' no
Because I don't want you to know
How I really feel (How I really feel)
How I really feel
About you (You know how I feel)
About you (You know how I feel)
About you (How I feel, you know how I feel)
So good to have you in my life
(It's a new life for me)
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
[Verse 2: Mary J]
You, you're the one for me
I don't wanna be free
Boy, you have rescued me
But sometimes I don't want to be bothered
Baby, don't think I am shady
Just adjusting to ya
I don't wanna confuse ya or even misuse ya
But I love ya, I love ya, yeah, yeah
[Chorus: Mary J]
You're everything I ever wanted
Everything I've never wanted
In a man, can't you see (In a man)
What you're doing to me? (What you're doing to me)
I'm sayin' yes and sayin' no (Oh yeah)
Because I don't want you to know
How I really feel (How I really feel)
How I really feel (How I really feel)
About you (You know how I feel)
About you (You know how I feel)
About you (How I feel, you know how I feel)
And it's so bad to have you in my life
(It's a new life for me)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
[Bridge: Mary J]
Ooh, so very happy with my life
So glad to have someone to hold me
So very happy with my life
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm so glad, so glad, so glad, so glad
[Verse 3: will.i.am]
Baby, you a soul mama
Love's what I'ma
Bring to you quick, don't pause like a comma
Won't stall on ya when it's time to put it on ya
Don't call on another chick, I'm callin' on ya (Hey)
Won't trip on ya, I don't bring the drama
I won't dip out when it's trauma
I'm holdin' on, mama
Hold up, wait a minute
We've been through the down's up, but stayed in it
So glad that I got you, that I got you
So glad that I got you, that I got you
[Chorus: Mary J]
You're everything I ever wanted
Everything I've never wanted (Oh, everything)
In a man, can't you see (Oh, in a man, babe)
What you're doing to me? (You're driving me crazy)
I'm sayin' yes and sayin' no (Oh, sayin' yes)
Because I don't want you to know (I don't want you to know)
How I really feel
How I really feel (How I really feel)
About you (You know how I feel)
About you (You know how I feel)
About you (How I feel, you know how I feel)
So glad to have you in my life
(It's a new life for me)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
