Brownstone - Half Of You Lyrics
[Nicci]
Now and then
I wonder where you are & where you've been
We were friends
But deep inside my heart, I always knew
I wish that I could say the same for you
Everyday
I kept you oh so dear & close to my heart
I was yours
I thought that you were mine
Right from the start
We made a vow to be as one
But you played your games
Put our love to shame
[Chorus]
I never wanted half of you
Sharing you will just not do
Gotta be, one on one, or it won't be done
You said you wanted all of me
Why couldn't it be two not three
It's too late
I won't take half of you
[Nicci]
Since you've gone
I've had some time to think, about my life
And now I, I know that I won't make that mistake twice
So there's no need for you to call
I found another man (Oh yeah)
One who understands (Oh yeah)
The woman that I am
[Chorus]
[Gordon]
Oh yeah
[Nicci]
Sing sweet baby
[Gordon]
Sing it to me my sweet baby
(Oooohh)
Just wanna say that I'm sorry
I gotta say that I'm sorry
But I promise you
If you take me back
I'll be a better man
[Nicci (Gordon)]
Sorry
Found another man (No)
One who understands (No)
The woman that I am (No, no, no)
The woman that I am (Ohh)
Never wanted half of you (No baby)
Sharing will just not do (Gimme one more chance)
Gotta be, one on one (one on one)
Or it won't be done (I'm done with doin' it to ya baby)
You said you wanted all of me (All of me, yeah)
Why couldn't it be two not three
It's too late
I won't take half of you (Of you)
Of you (Of you)
Of you (Of you)
[All]
It's too late
I won't take half of
You
Oohh
Oohh
(Of you baby)

RIP Maxee
I empathize,,, love this song
WELLLL WELLL.......
I just got out of something just like this, this song is me!!!
I LOVE THIS SONG!!! I wont take Half of You!!!
Beautiful song. Brings back a mixture of memories. Good and sad. They just don't make music like this anymore. ...
This made me go into my old CD collection.
Clearly Brownstone was underrated! This is a beautiful song! 👏👌
The vocals are absolutely magic. This is part of M.J's legacy. R.I.Paradise Mikie, Tnx for all the gifts you have left us with.
OMG....I skeetn...yo!!!
These guys had beautiful voices.
im 16 and i love old school i hate rap n new school music this kinda music is what need to get our world right n not poping mollies n bustin it open . :)
Nicci Gilbert got down on this one!
One of the first groups signed to Michael Jackson's music label
Missing the soulfulness of these ladies
I just LOVE this song!!! I sang this in the shower one time, and my neighbors yelled," YOU GO GIRL!!" I FEEL IT when I sang this and when brownstone hit those pretty notes!
This song brings a feeling to my heart I want to do a cover to it but need a male vocalist!
I love me some brownstone!
i still have this cd it's a classic !!
Okay,I been saying that all the time.
Remember going thru it with my first love...I use to blast this whole cd on my way to work in San Francisco...people use to me next to my lil bucket while stuck in traffic on the bridge like dang lol ! Good memories this cd taught me to understand how I what I feeling..something the women in my life didn't do . Thank you ladies<3
Absolutely marvelous. My heart yearns for music like this, SMH :-(.
Classic
What do you mean, "Gaga take notes"? 1) She is a pop performance artist not an r&b artist, so she doesn't need to take notes from either of these girls. 2) I have not saw a video yet where Lady Gaga has needed to abuse autotune in order to make herself sound good, and she always sings live while dancing, running, jumping, and so more stuff. I would say Lady Gaga is doing just fine in the lane that she is in. But thanks for your concern and this group sounds amazing.
I'm on a come-up
It's almost CRIMINAL that these young ladies did not make a larger impact on the music industry..........I truly don't understand it.......seriously. Destiny's Child carried "the Girl Group" theme into the 2000's, and when they dissolved, this music died with them. From a pure vocal standpoint, Brownstone was just as talented (if not more) than Destiny's Child. 18 years after they started, how many actually REMEMBER Brownstone? Talent should never go unrecognized.....or unappreciated.
This is/was my favorite song of this CD. Not that I didn't like any of the other songs, because I loved the whole cd.
So fitting....
so so true
Amazing vocalists
no autotune here baby!! REaL talent 2011.. please get with it!!
this is just....good....
boy this is some real singing........2011 don't even compare....real vocals and talent. natural singers....not digital grap.
outstanding
These sistahs have natural raw GOD given talent..wow!
Where are you Brownstone? ... Miss you ladies ... Mad I let my CD get stolen ... I know every song
Where are you Brownstone? ... Miss you ladies ... Mad I let my CD get stolen ... I know every song
omg lyrics have meaning!!!!!! unlike the crap on the radio these days ... Kay Gaga Rihanna take a hint from the old school pure talent not Autotune.
but i can post a comment smh
why can't i get this song to play right now?
Love this song sooo much!
my eyes fill with tear by this song
"Y'all better sing..." Jesus!
Great voices singing a beautiful love song
Amen! And they saved the best for last. I loved this CD.
The words of this song are so very true, but these classy ladies sing this heartfelt song so smooth with their God given voices!
I STILL LOOVVVVVVVEEEE THIS SONG!!
the toilet plunger for yourself yeah.....jeeez!!
Does anyone have piano sheet, chords or tab for this?? I really wanna play this, but can't find it. :(
gave me chillz
Your comment is the Truth about the 90's last hope for the music, really...!
I have always loved this song!
they have such soft , smooth and soothing voices. the 90's was the last hope of true music.
nope- it's over. sad, but true. no one sings like this anymore....
the whole cd was good. this is my favorite song. I wish they would something else. they were good
luv dis song when i was little
i still have this cd and still love it
I saw some where on here that they are doing a come back CD
This makes me think of that song by X-scape I can't remember what it was. But Brownstone is so tight. Those girls got big voices.
I love this song..They didn't get enough exposure..I believe Micheal Jackson produce/or the where on his record label..Great group..
this is real singing! period.
beautiful song!
mmmmm.... who's the guy?
Goosepimples....that's soul-singing
this is my shit im young so i wasnt really able to understand brownstone when they came out but damn if they aint the shit
