Before I Let You Go Lyrics

Before I let you go, before I let you go
Can I get a kiss goodnight baby?(Hmmmm)
Before I let you go, before I let you go
Can I get a kiss goodnight baby? (Ohhhh)

Before I let you go, before I let you go
Can I get a kiss goodnight baby? (oohh yeah...)
Before I let you go before I let you go
Can I get a kiss goodnight baby?

Lately I been thinkin'
Somethings going on
'Cause you got an attitude
You're not in the mood
Like you use to...

Girl I can feel it
When I hold you in my arms
The feeling is not the same
And I'd be the one to blame
I don't want to lose your love (hmmm)
I don't wanna say bye-bye (oh nooo)
True love is so hard to find
And it's right between your lips and mine... and mine
Before I let go...

Before I let you go away
(Can I get a kiss?)
Can I get a kiss goodnight?
(Baby, before I go can get a kiss goodnight?)
Before I let you go away
(Oh baby baby)
Before I let you go away
Can I get a kiss goodnight?
(Listen baby...)

Turn the lights down low
Let's take it nice and slow
My mission is to keep you mine
Don't want this to be the last time
We'll make sweet love baby
I know you'll feel it too
It's bigger than the both of us
There's one thing I so certain of:

I don't want to lose your love (don't wanna lose ya)
I don't want to say bye-bye (don't wanna lose ya)
It's always the little things
I remember and I can't just let it slip away... slip away
Before... (oh ohhh)

Before I let you go away
(Baby, I wanna know, I wanna know...)
Can I get a kiss goodnight?
(Before I go, I go, I go away.)
Before I let you go away
(I just gotta know, can I have...?)
Can I get a kiss goodnight?

(Teddy, won't you play the music for me
Teddy won't you play... Blackstreet sang)
Don't wanna lose ya
(Baby I get so lonely sometimes I...)
Dont wanna lose ya
(Baby, my heart is broken, sometimes I need you right now... I don't)
Don't wanna lose ya
Can't let you slip away.slip away
Before I let go... (ohhh ohh)

Before I let you go away
(Baby Baby.)
Can I get a kiss goodnight?
(I don't it being a problem if I just get one little bitty kiss baby...)
Before I let you get away
(I just can't let you get away)
Can I get a kiss goodnight?
(oh Yeah.before I let you go)

Before I let you go, before I let you go ('Lawd have Mercy!)
(See I wanna know.)
Can I get a kiss goodnight baby?
(I've gotta have one kiss good night)
Before I let you go, before I let you go
(Don't say bye-bye.Please!)
Can I get a kiss goodnight baby?

I don't wanna lose your sweet love
So don't say goodbye... say goodnight

Blackstreet was an American R&B group founded in 1994 by Teddy Riley, a New Jack Swing pioneer known for his work as a member of Guy. The band members were: Teddy Riley, Chauncey Hannibal, Eric Williams, and Terrell Philips (and formerly Joe Stonestreet, Levi Little, David Hollister, and Mark Middleton). Their debut album, Blackstreet, was a moderate success due to the singles "Booti Call" and "Before I Let You Go", both Top 40 hits ("Before" hit the Top 10). The follow-up, 1996's Another Level was a breakthrough success due to the top single "No Diggity" (with Dr. Dre), which was a #1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 in November 1996, and won the 1998 Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals, along with the Top 40 hit "Don't Leave Me". Another Level eventually went four times platinum in the United States and peaked at #3 on the Billboard chart. "No Diggity" is ranked at #91 on Rolling Stone and MTV: 100 Greatest Pop Songs, while Blackstreet comes in at #214 of the Top 500 Pop Artists of the Past 25 Years.

Blackstreet has also collaborated with Jay-Z on his single "The City is Mine". With the help of the Janet Jackson single "Girlfriend", Blackstreet finally had a top ten album with Finally. But personnel shifts wracked the group and contributed to the relative failure of Finally in 1999, and Blackstreet soon broke up. After rumors of legal action and a preemptive countersuit, the group re-banded and released Level II in 2003.

In 2006 They are part of New Jack Reunion Tour Line up. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
