Babyface

Released: March 23, 2004

[Verse 1]
Sometimes you hate me
Sometimes you don't
Sometimes you tell me
You just don't know
Sometimes you want me
Then you want me to go
Something inside says to hold on
And somehow, girl I knew, you'd come back home

[Chorus]
Now it's so good to know
Good to know, good to know
Ooh baby
Now, that we're here
And we're both still in love and together
Girl now, that it's clear
That we won't ever find no one better
Girl let's stay together forever more
Let's stay together girl
Yeah

[Verse 2]
We done been through it girl
We done gone back and forth
We been through the hoopsie and the hoopster
Be fighting like cats and dogs
Still with everything going on
We fit like a hand and glove
It's a strange love
And somehow, girl I knew, you'd come back home

[Chorus]
Now it's so good to know
Oh, oh baby baby
Now, that we're here
And we're both still in love and together
Girl now, that it's clear
That we won't ever find no one better
Girl let's stay together forever more
Let's stay together girl
Yeah

[Bridge]
Outside of your place
Our first date
You wore that red dress
Gettin' to know you
Makin' love
Everybody was jealous of us
Movin' in, movin' out
Learning what loneliness was all about
All of the promises I'm gonna keep
Finding your way back to me, oh

[Chorus]
Now, that we're here
And we're both still in love and together
Girl now, that it's clear
That we won't ever find no one better
Girl, let's stay together forever

Now, that we're here
And we're both still in love and together
Girl now, that it's clear
That we won't ever find no one better
Girl let's stay together forever

Now, that we're here
And we're both still in love and together
Girl now, that it's clear
That we won't ever find no one better
Girl let's stay together forever

Kenneth “Babyface” Edmonds (born April 10, 1959 in Indianapolis, Indiana) is a Grammy Award-winning producer, singer, and songwriter responsible for a string of hits in the 1980s and 1990s. He has written and produced more than 20 number-one hits and won 11 Grammys—including three for Producer of the Year—for his work with Boyz II Men, Whitney Houston, Eric Clapton, Alicia Keys, and Toni Braxton, as well as his own work as an artist.

Babyface got his nickname from funk legend Bootsy Collins after joining his backing band in the 1970s. He joined the group Manchild in the late ‘70s—a group that also included his frequent collaborator Daryl Simmons—before moving out West and working with the group The Deele in the early 1980s, forming a bond with his bandmate and future production partner L.A. Reid. After producing the hit “Two Occasions” for The Deele, L.A. & Babyface broke off and became one of the biggest superproducer duos in R&B, rivaling the hits of fellow superproducer duo Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis.

L.A. & ‘Face had their hands in a string of #1 R&B hits in the late '80s and early '90s from artists such as Pebbles (“Girlfriend”), Karyn White (“Superwoman”), The Whispers (“Rock Steady”), Johnny Gill (“My, My, My”) and many more. They were also instrumental in the success of post-New Edition era Bobby Brown as they produced his #1 hits “Don’t Be Cruel,” “Every Little Step,” “On Our Own,” and “Humpin' Around.” They made history with Boyz II Men in 1992 as they wrote and produced “End of the Road,” which spent a record-breaking 14 consecutive weeks atop the pop chart.
