After 7 - Cryin' For It Lyrics
The first time I saw you
I knew I would fall in love
You filled an empty space in my heart
And that was rather special
Cause I never thought someone
The second time I saw you
I knew that I had been whupped
I could not get you out of my mind
And ever since that moment
Girl I haven't been much good
I won't rest until I know that you're mine
Don't you hear me crying for it
Don't you see my heart's on fire
Don't you feel me dying for it
The first time that I saw you
I knew that you were the one
You were everything a man could desire
And I've always been the kinda man
To get just what he wants
So please don't make me out as a liar
The second time I saw you
I just had to have you girl
I'd never seen someone look so good
And ever since that day
I just haven't been the same
I want you girl and I want that understood
Don't you hear me crying for it
Don't you see my heart's on fire
Don't you feel me dying for it
Give me my hearts desire
And I won't be any good
If I can't have you now
If there's any way you could
Come to me now
I'd give you anything
And I do mean everything
And that means anything you heart desires
Don't you hear me crying for it
Don't you see my heart's on fire
Don't you feel me dying for it
Give me my hearts desire

IT GREAT TO HEAR AFTER 7 AGAIN
AND SO MANY OTHER RECORDING ARTIST THAT WERE SOMEWHAT
LOST IN TRANSITION, DUE TO
THE RAPPERS & DISCO ERA
I really wish I was born in this era... music was SO meaningful and romantic! 😫 I’m only 18 and my friends look at me like “wth are you listening to” when I play After 7... what they’re missing out on!
I play a variety of music for my grandkids especially for this reason.
simplesmente amo esse grupo
I remember buying this CD when it was first released. It took me FOREVER to move past this song. I programmed it to repeat for the longest time. Still lovin' After 7 and still listening in 2019.
After 7 is so classy... You used to have to earn your place and they earned it classic!!! nowadays all they have to do is holler and scream and jump around the stage like they have no sense and they earn their place... So many people die before us to pay the way and they have just messed up the way can we bring back music with a meaning ...
2019 baby! :)
have to check your self don t fall for her
Real music.
Classic After 7😘😘
Love You Bobby 😍
Don't you hear me crying for it😢
THIS WHOLE CD WAS
MADE TO PERFECTION
AND IT'S UNFORGETTABLE
I'M JUST VERY GLAD THAT
I WAS ABLE TO FIND ANOTHER
COPY OF THIS CD, BECAUSE
I WAS TOLD THAT MOST OF
R&B RECORDING ARTIST MUSIC
WAS OUT PRINT AND THAT I COULD
NOT GET ANYMORE COPIES OF
ANYONE, SINCE THE RAP MUSIC
AND DOMINATED THE MUSIC
INDUSTRY, WELL
"RECORDED MEMORIES"
DID SOME RESEARCH
AND WAS ABLE TO FIND THIS CD
AND ONE OD THEIR BEST ALONG
WITH A FEW OTHERS
They sing this bad boy make me cry!!!!! Melvin sound so good...
I played this CD so much that it broke... What angelic voices... ❤ Kevon is so damn good that he somewhat sounds like a woman, that's tough and rare for a man to do!!
K.B.E. IF YOU WERE HERE AND I MISSED YOU AGAIN I SINCERELY APOLOGIZE & I
HOPE THAT YOU'RE STILL HERE, ONLY REGRET THAT
I DIDN'T GET TO SEE YOU, AGAIN,
JUST HAD NO IDEAL, AND I WAS SITTING HERE WATCHING KEVIN HART
AND YOUR MUSIC
PLUGGED INTO MY EAR WITH HEADPHONES AND
I WAS STILL THINKING ABOUT HOW EMBARRASSING IT WAS TO
BE SEEN IN PUBLIC WITH MY CRAZY NATURALLY IGNORANT STEP BROTHER
1 MIN. I CAN COMMEND HIM FOR WORKING 2 JOBS, BUT FOR SERVING THE
COMMUNITY IN HIS SPARE TIME AT HIS BEST FRIEND'S FATHER'S
CHURCH TO FEED THE HOMELESS EVERY SATURDAY, AND LESS
THAN AN HOUR LATER HE'S AWAY FROM THE CHURCH AND HE DOES
SOMETHING REAL DUMB IN PUBLIC LIKE POP OPEN A BEER IN PUBLIC AND
DRINK IT FAST LIKE'S A GLASS OF KOOL AIDE OR A SODA THEN HE WANTED
TO KNOW WHERE ELSE I WANTED TO TAKE ME AND I SAID NO PLACE BUT HOME ASAP
K.B.E. "MY WORLD IS EMPTY WITHOUT YOU"
YES AFTER 7 IS GENUINE AND ONE AMAZING CLASSIC ACT OF
SOPHISTICATED GENTS THAT IS ALSO
ONE OF KIND WHEN IT COMES TO GREAT SONGWRITERS, AND MUSIC
PRODUCERS LIKE THEIR INFAMOUS & TRULY AMAZING BROTHERS
"BABYFACE, THE LATE AND GREAT MELVIN EDMONDS, AND ALONG W/
JON B. AND
KEVON EDMONDS
L.A REID, KEITH ANDES
AND RICKY JONES,
WARRES CAREY
ALONG LONG LIST OF TRULY GREAT MUSICIANS AND THE BOOM BROTHERS,
JUST TO NAME A FEW SO
CONGRATULATIONS
FELLOWS FOR AN
EXCELLENT JOB WELL DONE THIS IS MY FAVORITE
CD AND ALL THE OTHERS
SINCE "BABYFACE" BROUGHT YOU ALL TO
THE MUSIC INDUSTRY
AND THE SPOTLIGHT WHERE YOU ALL BELONG
AND IF OUR CREATOR IS STILL WILLING FOR YOU
ALL TO MAKE ANOTHER AMAZING COME BACK THAT WILL BE GREAT
BECAUSE I'VE ALWAYS ENJOY LISTENING TO
YOUR GREAT MUSIC 24/7 OR WHENEVER POSSIBLE,
SO AGAIN I WANT TO THANK YOU ALL FOR WHAT YOU DO BEST
AND THAT'S SING TO PRODUCE GREAT MUSIC
AND THE BEST ENTERTAINMENT & NOTHING LESS,
THAT PROVIDED YOU ALL
WITH GREAT SUCCESS
K.B.E. I KNOW THAT YOU WROTE AND PRODUCED THIS SONG BECAUSE I WAS
VERY LUCKY & BLESSED TO BE ABLE TO SPECIAL ORDER THIS CD AGAIN
AFTER THE 1st. ONE I HAD B4 WAD STOLEN FROM ME AND DUE TO THE FACT
THAT YOU ARE ONE
EXTRAORDINARY
SONGWRITER AND MUSIC
PRODUCER I WILL CONTINUE TO LOVE
DUE TO YOUR OWN
CREATIVITY, STYLE AND TECHNIQUE
NOW IT'S UNFORTUNATE THAT I STILL HAVE MY LITERATURE & I HAD EVERY INTENTIONS IN
SHARING WITH YOU BUT I HAD TOO MANY MAJOR
SET BACKS WITH 4 HEART
ATTACKS LAST YEAR 2 IN MARCH & 2 IN NOV. WITH MY OWN FAMILY
DESTROYING MY ART WORK
ESSAYS, AND SOME OF POETRY AND SINCE MOST OF THEM WAS DESTROYED
I'VE MANAGED TO STILL A
SOME OF MY BEST IN DRAFTS LEFT & I PLAN TO
TAKE TO A PROFESSIONAL
PRINTING COMPANY TO GET PUBLISHED THE 2nd
TIME AROUND AND WITH
BETTER RESULT NOW I TOO
YOUR YOUR JOY AND PAIN
AND AGAIN I SINCERELY APOLOGIZE & WILL REMAIN
YOUR BIGGEST FAN AND
AFTER 7 NOW I ALSO HAVE A VERY URGENT MESSAGE FOR YOU & WITH HOPE I
GET THIS VERY PERSONAL
VITAL & URGENT
MESSAGE,
SO THAT YOU WON'T LOSE ANOTHER FAMILY MEMBER AGAIN WHILE MY HEART
AND PRAYER WILL CONTINUE TO GO TO YOU
AND YOUR FAMILY,
I WILL TRY AND SEND MY VERY URGENT MESSAGE TO & WITH HOPE THAT I
GET A SOON & BETTER
RESPONSE FROM
PRESIDENT FOR
FACEBOOK
MARK ZUCKEBURG
BECAUSE IF THE PROTECT
ANY MESSAGES FOR
BEYONCE & JAYZ
THEY SHOULD DO IT FOR ALL RECORDING ARTIST AND CELEBRITIES
ALSO LAST YEAR & 1 MORE THIS YEAR IN JAN 2018
BUT "BABYFACE" I ONLY WANTED TO SHOW YOU THAT I'M JUST AS SINCERE
AND I REALLY APPRECIATE YOU AS AN ARTIST & YOUR
MUSIC IS TRULY GENUINE
FROM YOUR HEART & SOUL
AND THAT'S WHAT MAKES YOU ONE OF A KIND AND
TRUE TO YOUR CRAFT WHICH MEANS EVERYTHING TO ME
NLY WANTED TO SINCERELY
APOLOGIZE TO YOU FOR UNFORTUNATELY BEING
TOTALLY IGNORED &
MISUNDERSTOOD WHEN YOU CAME TO TOWN DUE TO A NO GOOD EX BOY
FRIEND, THAT ONLY BETRAYED HIMSELF AS A
HONEST MAN OF HIS WORD
AND I'M SORRY I EVEN MISSED YOUR CONCERT
BASICALLY TO AVOID HIM
AS MUCH SO I'M JUST CALLING THE POLICE EVERY TIME HE'S SHOWS
UP AND NOW HE'S GOT THE MESSAGE AND I HAVEN'T SEEN OR BEEN
WITH HIM OR ANYONE ELSE BUT AGAIN I SINCERELY APOLOGIZE
FOR ALL THE TROUBLE I MAY HAVE CAUSED YOU SINCE YOU MADE
THE EFFORT TO COME & VIEW WORK WHICH FAILED
TERRIBLY DUE THAT THE
FACT THAT NO GOOD BOY FRIEND FINALLY GOT THE
MESSAGE, SINCE HE ONLY
PROVED TO BE LESS THAN A MAN WITH THAT VERY CHILDISH BOY MENTALITY
AND HE ONLY WASTED MY
M.V.P. MY MOST VITAL
PRECIOUS TIME BY PLAYING VERY CHILDISH
GAMES WITH MY BEAUTIFUL MIND SO FOR
THE PAST 4 1/2 YRS. I HAVE BEEN LIVING ALONE WITHOUT THIS MEGA LOSER USER AND ABUSER
AND I NEVER EVER THOUGHT THAT YOU HAD COME THE DISTANCE
MORE THAN ONCE TO MEET WITH ME TO PERSONALLY VIEW MY
WORK FIRST HAND WHEN I THOUGHT IT WAS THE NO
GOOD BOY THAT ONLY PROVED TO BE LESS THAN
THE MAN HE ONLY CLAIMED TO BE WHEN I KNOW THAT YOU AND
YOUR WORK PROVED TO BE SO MUCH MORE & YES
100 PERCENT 3 TIMES
BETTER THAN HE EVER WAS, SO AGAIN I SINCERELY APOLOGIZE
KENNY "BABYFACE EDMONDS AND I MEAN THAT DEARLY
Beautiful somgs..we need more music like this to make babys!.They seem to tour back east!Well Im a hughe fan and WOULD like to see After 7 out West
Any of there songs can put you in the mood for love. After 7 is just an awesome group.
Love this CD!
Hmmm, this reminds me of how I felt about women who eventually broke my heart... Yup, love sucks.
By the time this Reflections Album appeared, we saw that the true talent of After 7 come full circle. I know it keeps my heart Cryin for more. Thanks for posting.
dont u feel me dying for it
Pure talent. Melodic voices. No auto tuning here.
Loveystar78 cloud.....NONE!!!
I'm happily re-discovering After 7. I had forgotten how much I liked them back in the day and lost track of them. They are an awesome group. I was sorry to hear that Melvin's not touring with them anymore...but STILL love After 7!
💕💕💕✨
This is my jam.
💞💞Amazing Group is all I have to say
Yo if I tried dedicating to a girl in today's age I would be called thirsty. I remember these songs being a jump off point to an amazing pair bonding experience.
I never knew the oldest brother name, "Melivn". He has a beauitful voice very meaningful "thrown" as he repents his lyrics.I live them all!!Even the light skinned one.
them boyz got back together.. Fàaaashooo..
Edmonds family classic
cant get enough of these jams-reflections album is da bomb"boom!"
Yes! My favorite!
love this
if the songs are like this
. it'll be a gem
"My heart's on fire"
It's hard to say, but I think this is the best After 7 album. we will see when the new album is released. Timeless. September 2016! can't wait!
+Nancy Dawson OK the new album now won't be released until October. They want to add something special and it pushed it back t October. Anxiously awaiting!
Yes I bought it and it's pretty good
Nancy, it is hard to say, but although all their songs on their albums are beautifully delivered, this may be the best of their best. This is one classy album that expresses all the elements of love!!!!!. it really does not get much better than this album, in my opinion.
Nancy Dawson .....My boy and I discussed this very topic the other night over some XO. Listened to the first three projects. The conclusion was that, Although Takin' My Time and After 7 had some FANTASTIC TRACKS, Reflections (track for track) was the better project of the three. IMO, due to the declination of Melvin's vocal range, Reflections is still the better of the After 7 projects.
Beautiful lovely song
20.20 - 20.24
2016 and still loving it!
Such a beautiful song!!!
Keith Mitchell was the hottest, wish he had done more leads, nice eye candy.
lol..I used to wear this OWT! Unfortunately, the CD has been stuck in my CD changer for the past 15 years..lol...those were the good old days when my ex-wife & I were together...lol...brings back memories.
Often times hear Kevon complimented as if he alone made this group happen,he do have a nice voice but as a group especially with Melvin, his brother voice, this trio happens.
You are so correct Ginger Smith. The After 7 sound is only made possible with both Melvin and Kevon . Melvin is (The Roux), the flavor packet. After 7 is like a steaming bowl of fragrant gumbo and gumbo ain't gumbo without the roux (Melvin), it's soup.
im in love with this track
My favorite song in the entire world
You can never go wrong with a After 7 or Kevon track! This cd was a classic!
Dasani605 o
True...cd was a classic
How you know you're in love...can't sleep...this song makes me want to run and grab him...Ijs :)
This is an all time classic. This song brings back memories lol
One of my favorite groups
Memories..
that's purely and simply a great ballad!
@gambattemusic Did Babyface write this one? I'd say a good performance by Kevon but doesn't touch his performances in songs like Ready or Not, One Night or my personal favourite Truly Something Special. Kevon may be the purest male rnb singer not named Luther.
Jon B Smooth yes, Babyface wrote and produced this!
man this is truly a love ballad for the ages thanx for posting this one. appreciate it very much. U know ur in love when you can relate to an after 7 track.
same here, have to thank this girl a lot for posting it.
I had forgotten how much i love this cd!!
