U must have heard he got another band
They're makin' money, they're makin' plans
U feel left out but U need to understand
Word on the street- he's still Ur man

I know it's not a question any of us can really answer, but do you guys think Mani feels left out?
It seems like if you're Prince's woman you come on second place and the music always on first place. It's good for us, but I understand that it must be tough if you're his lady.
It's not so strange to feel disappointed and ignored when your husband spends so many hours in the studio, has a new protege and new, beautiful dancers. Though I don't think that P is always conscious about this. He's an artist and lives often in his own world and maybe then when things go wrong he doesn't really understand why and makes a video like Fury.

But that's just the psychologist in me talking.

I think it's just promotion time for "3121" and Prince is better seen with Tamar & The Twinz than with his wife. Maybe that's kind of agreement between them.

Yeah, I also think that they've made an agreement that tey're both doing their own things. That's how it's supposed to be. Still, the feeling doesn't go away because of that...

SO TRUE



Alone and Hollow..
by L. Lonsdale.



-----


Once again I come to you
Looking to bare my soul
Trying to explain to you
Why with you I can't feel whole
I'm hoping for emotion
And a hand to hold
But you shut down or shake your head
And leave me feeling cold



Are you really listening?
Tell me, can you hear?
Do I speak in a foreign tongue?
Is my message clear?
Your lights are on, but you're not home
So it's all falling on deaf ears
And now that I've said my piece
Where do we go from here?



Once again I'm empty
My words have all been drained
I feel alone and hollow
And my tears they fall like rain
Seems you don't understand love
Things likely won't change
So tell me now, what do I do
To try to stop the pain



My flood of expression seems worthless
Though it wasn't always like this
But then somewhere along the way
Things all went amiss
I remember a time when I believed
We could fix all with a kiss
That was back when you seemed to care
And those times I've grown to miss



Now your eyes are vacant
Your words are very few
There is no love forthcoming
And I don't know what to do
To make you truly see me
Or this union made for two
It seems I'm in it all alone
So it's time I start anew



I know that you're not listening
It's plain that you can't hear
I may as well speak in a foreign tongue
My message isn't clear
Your lights are on, but you're not home
So it's all falling on deaf ears
And now that I've said my piece
I must be leaving here.

TAMIA----

I don't understand
You look just like the man
In the picture by our bed
The suspence is pounding and clouding up my head
I'm checkin' your clothes
And you wear the same size shoe
You sleep in his spot
And you're driving his car
But I don't know just who you are

There's a stranger in my house
It took a while to figure out
There's no way you could be who you say you are
You gotta be someone else
Cuz he wouldn't touch me like that
And he wouldn't treat me like you do
He would adore me, he wouldn't ignore me
So I'm convinced there's a stranger in my house

I'm not sure who you are
Don't see your shadow around when you walk
Ain't leavin' no kisses
Goodbye with no words
If these walls could talk
They would have nothing to tell

So what could it be?
Is there someone immitating me?
Could she be taking my place?
Look me in the face
And tell me that I'm wrong
When I say...

There's a stranger in my house
It took a while to figure out
There's no way you could be who you say you are
You gotta be someone else
Cuz he wouldn't touch me like that
And he wouldn't treat me like you do
He would adore me, he wouldn't ignore me
So I'm convinced there's a stranger in my house

Pop quiz
Tell me where we first kissed
Tell me where my spot is
Tell me if I liked it, loved it
Or could it be
That the stranger is me
Have I changed so drastically?
Is it I want more for me?
And you remain the same

There's a stranger in my house
It took a while to figure out
There's no way you could be who you say you are
You gotta be someone else
Cuz he wouldn't touch me like that
And he wouldn't treat me like you do
He would adore me, he wouldn't ignore me
So I'm convinced there's a stranger in my house

WHEN A WOMAN'S FED UP

R KELLY =====



I'm standing here looking in the mirror
Saying "damn" to myself
I should have known the day would come
That she would find somebody else
And all the things I took her through
Shit, I shouldn't have lasted this long
Now I'm at this telephone booth calling Tyrone

[1] - Cuz when a woman's fed up
(No matter how you beg, no)
It ain't nothing you can do about it
(Nothing you can do about it)
It's like running out of love
(No matter what you say, no)
And then it's too late to talk about it
(Too late to talk about it)

Now let's talk about how it all goes down
I used to make love to you daily
When the night fell the same
And anytime that you were hurt
I could feel your pain
And if I had a dollar
It was yours, yeah
And whenever we would go out
I would front the bill
But now the up is down
And the silence is sound
I hurt you too too many times
Now I can't come around

[1] - Cuz when a woman's fed up
(No matter how you beg, no)
It ain't nothing you can do about it
(Nothing you can do about it)
It's like running out of love
(No matter what you say, no)
And then it's too late to talk about it
(Too late to talk about it)

La da da da da la la da da
La da da da da la la da da
If you don't want to find out the hard way
Then listen to this song while the record plays

[1] - Cuz when a woman's fed up
(No matter how you beg, no)
It ain't nothing you can do about it
(Nothing you can do about it)
It's like running out of love
(No matter what you say, no)
And then it's too late to talk about it
(Too late to talk about it)

You can cry a river
'Till an ocean starts to form, yeah
But she will always remember
Cuz she's a woman scorned
And if you ever get her back
It will never be the same
She's cuttin' the corners of her eyes
Every time she see your face
Now your trust is out the door
She don't want you no more
You used to tell your boys, not me
And she would always be there for you
If you had took the time to see
What that woman meant to you
Is what the mirror said to me, whoa
She was raised in Illinois
Right outside of Chicago
Some of the best cookin' you ever had
Yes, it was and I miss her
Hey woman, if you're listening
I said I miss you baby

F U R Y


Prince---

U must have heard it on the news this morning
Congratulations! A new star is born
Sun 2 a shadow, rose 2 a thorn
There ain't no fury like a woman scorned

Y'all must have dug it, when u did your thang
It's like a song, everybody wanna sang
When the music's over, ur ears ring
With a voice that's saying, "Queen got no King!"

He got a message saying, u tried 2 reach him on the phone
He didn't wanna answer cuz he's so afraid
U'd probably tell him just 2 leave u alone

U must have heard he got another band
They're makin' money, they're makin' plans
U feel left out, but u need 2 understand
Word on the street - he's still ur man
(he's still ur man)

Look out, here comes ur rainy day
Now u think you got a good reason 2 say
Everything that's in ur heart, come what may
Even though his might get broken

Who's the guilty one when there ain't no judge or jury?
Shadow 2 the sun, next 2 the one
Hell ain't got no fury


It will approach us, the debt he's been in
Open to the heart in need of mending
Will this song have a happy ending?
Only the woman knows, only she knows

2 sides 2 every story
One man's gloom is another man's glory
Sun 2 a shadow, rose 2 a thorn
Ain't no fury like a woman scorned
Ain't no fury like a woman scorned
No fury like a woman scorned



Get the picture..?

Only the woman knows..only she knows.

Even children feel lonely too..

Daddy hugs his little man
says son I’ve got to go
and he pulls out of the drive and disappears
as they walk back in the house
the young boy asks his mama
where does daddy go when he leaves here

mama tells her little man
your daddy’s got a job
and when he goes to work they pay him for his time
well the young boy gets to thinking
and he heads up to his bedroom
and comes running back with a quarter and four dimes

(chorus:)
and says mama how much time will this buy me
is it enough to take me fishing or throw a football in the street
if I’m a little short then how much more does daddy need
to spend some time with me

the young boy tells his mama
now I know daddy’s busy
cause most times when he gets home it’s dark outside
but tell him I’ve got me some pennies
saved up from the tooth fairy
and I keep ‘em in my piggy bank and I believe there’s thirty-five

(chorus:)
and mama how much time will that buy me
is it enough to take me camping in a tent down by the creek
if I’m a little short then how much more does daddy need
to spend some time with me

mama how much time will this buy me
is it enough for just an afternoon a day or a whole week
if I’m a little short then how much more does daddy need
to spend some time with me

mama takes her little man
sets him on her lap
and starts dialing up some numbers on the phone
she says daddy come home early
you don’t have to chase that dollar
cause your little man has got one here at home

Nice songs:)

In Fury it sounds to me like P leaves it up to her if the story's going to have a happy ending... What's her decision? Stay tuned..

Every Rose Has A Thorn- Poison

We both lie silently still
In the dead of the night
Although we both lie close together
We feel miles apart inside

Was it something I said or something I did
Did my words not come out right
Though I tried not to hurt you
Though I tried
But I guess that’s why they say

Chorus:
Every rose has it’s thorn
Just like every night has it’s dawn
Just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song
Every rose has it’s thorn

Yeah it does

I listen to our favorite song
Playing on the radio
Hear the dj say loves a game of easy come and
Easy go
But I wonder does he know
Has he ever felt like this
And I know that you’d be here right now
If I could have let you know somehow
I guess

Chorus

Though it’s been a while now
I can still feel so much pain
Like a knife that cuts you the wound heals
But the scar, that scar remains

Solo

I know I could have saved a love that night
If I’d known what to say
Instead of makin’ love
We both made our separate ways

But now I hear you found somebody new
And that I never meant that much to you
To hear that tears me up inside
And to see you cuts me like a knife
I guess

Chorus[b]

SOSGEMINI --COOL SONG...

Here's another one... Chante Moore



B I T T E R

I'm just gonna speak from my heart
This song ain't about every man
But sometimes when you've had your heart broken
And there's pain
You gotta let it out exactly how you feel it
I realize it right now I'm just bitter

I remember the times we shared and I
Remember the long phone calls at night
You used to say the sweetest things
But today my phone rings and I wish
That you would just stop talking
I just can't take this anymore
You broke my heart and I know for sure
You're not the man I thought you was
Compromised myself enough
Now it's time to stop living this lie now

Don't follow me home nigga
Stop ringing my phone nigga
Just leave me alone nigga
I wish you well but
Right now I'm just bitter

Why did you come into my life
You didn't plan to do me right
If you didn't mean forever more
Why'd you get with me for?
No free nook that's not yours anymore, no, no

Don't follow me home nigga
Stop ringing my phone nigga
Just leave me alone nigga
I wish you well but
Right now I'm just bitter

Don't follow me home nigga
Stop ringing my phone nigga
Just leave me alone nigga
I wish you well but
Right now I'm just bitter

You make me sick nigga
I ain't your dog nigga
You made me write this song nigga
I wish you well but
I'm gonna find another nigga

*laughs

Man, a lot of 'nigga' in that song.

Seems like most of you think they have split up. I wonder how long we'll wander in the dark?...

VenusBlingBling said:

GOOD QUESTION, VENUS. HOW LONG?
I know it's his personal life
but he should know his fans
know something isn't right and
sooner or later ..what's in the
dark must come out into the light.

Time will tell.
