[Verse 1: Mike]
Come here baby, let me talk to you
I've been watching you and you look so, so good tonight
Words just can't express the way that you're makin' me feel
I'm just captured by your love and your sensuality
Let me explain

[Verse 2: Nathan]
There you are, standing there
Make me wanna reach out and touch ya'
And run my fingers through your hair
I know you gotta go but I want you to stay
So we can get a little closer and do things my way

[Verse 3: Wanya]
Baby you're so beautiful, honey you're special too
You make me wanna do things that I never thought I'd do
Like put you up in my home and buy you fancy things
We can make lots and lots of babies
And I'll buy you a big diamond ring...Oooh

[Chorus]
Never
Never go, never go away from me
Baby stay with me
Oh, never
Never go, never go away from me
Please stay with me

[Verse 4: Shawn]
Breathe out so I can breathe you in
Wanna know every single detail, feel the movement of your skin
Baby if you were to ever leave me, my heart will sho'nuff die
So please be with me forever, and don't you ever say goodbye

[Chorus]
Never
Never go, never go away from me
Baby stay with me
Oh, never
Never go, never go away from me
Please stay with me

[Bridge: Shawn]
See you are (you are everything to me)
Can't you see baby
All of my friends think I'm crazy
Ooh, but they don't know, they don't know
A thing about you and me

[Chorus]
Never
Never go, never go away from me
Baby stay with me
Oh, never
Never go, never go away from me
Please stay with me

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.
