Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Whoa, whoa
Whoa
Don't be afraid
Now there's no hitch

Even from across the sea (so far across the sea)
I can hear you callin' me (baby, come to me)
Destiny controls the air (no matter where you are)
Dream and dare to love again (your home is in my heart)

I know the way I feel 'bout you will last
Oh, yes, it's gonna last and stand the test of time
So your search for love is about to end
Your future holds a place where true love begins

Even from across the sea (so far across the sea)
I can hear you callin' me (baby, come to me)
Destiny controls the air (no matter where you are)
Dream and dare to love again (your home is in my heart)

Take a romantic journey, just start a new beginning
You won't no where you're goin' till you're there
Is it just physical or is it lasting love
Please don't give up, we won't know unless we try

Even from across the sea (so far across the sea)
I can hear you callin' me (baby, come to me)
Destiny controls the air (no matter where you are)
Dream and dare to love again (your home is in my heart)

Oh
Don't be afraid
(don't be afraid)
That's what dreams are made of
(don't be afraid to love)

Even from across the sea (so far across the sea)
I can hear you callin' me (I hear you callin' me)
Destiny controls the air (no matter where you are)
Dream and dare to love again (your home is in my heart)

(so far away)
I can hear you callin' me (my stella's callin' me)
Destiny controls the air (no matter where you are)
Dream and dare to love again (your home is in my heart)

Stella
No matter where you are
No matter how far you go
I'll be there
(stella)
(stella)
(stella)
(stella)
(whoa, ooh)
(you mean the world to me)
(and I love you, and I love you, I love you, I love you)
(oh, stella)
(yeah ooh)

Boyz II Men

Boyz II Men is an R&B vocal quartet from Philadelphia who became the most successful pop group of the 1990s. They’re best known for their passionate ballads, including the number one hits “End of The Road,” “On Bended Knee,” and “I’ll Make Love To You.”

An early version of the group was founded by Nathan Morris in the mid 1980s while attending the Philadelphia High School for the Creative and Performing Arts, where he recruited students Wanya Morris, Shawn Stockman, and Michael McCary. Singer Marc Nelson was also an early member, but left the group before their big break.

The group—who took its name from New Edition’s song “Boys To Men”—was discovered in 1988 after auditioning for New Edition’s Michael Bivins backstage at a concert. Bivins signed the group to his management company and secured them a contract with Motown Records.
