Never Give You Up Lyrics

See she is so sexy, the way she talks
The way she walks, it really drives me crazy
I think I like you girl

Enjoys the moment and takes her time
And does it right 'cause she's not just the average
I really like you girl

And there's something about her lips, the way she kiss
The way she walks them heads go
I see I like you sugar

Oh, then she'll look and it's so sweet
It knocks me right up off my feet, now baby
I see I like you sugar

Oh, girl I'll never give you up
'Cause ain't no other good enough
And nothing can compare to you
I waited all my life to be with you

Oh, here I stand and when I fall
Only you'll come back for more
Oh greatest love I ever seen
And girl your love has got me beat

Girl you, got me thinking 'bout you everyday
I'm not complaining now
I wanna say, her touch, her smile
Keeps me, livin' right
I gotta say, she's the best for me

(I guess I tried and tried)
To hide the way I feel
I can't explain it
(Can't explain it)
It's just too damn good
So I can tell the world, you got my heart
I love your mind design

Oh, girl I'll never give you up
'Cause ain't no other good enough
And nothing can compare to you
I waited all my life to be with you

Oh, here I stand and when I fall
Only you come back for more
Everything she does is sweet
She knocks me off my feet, that girl

I'd like to invite Mr. Stevie Wonder
To my album, come on Stevie

Oh, girl I'll never give you up
Girl I'll never give you up
'Cause ain't no other good enough
And nothing can compare to you
I waited all my life to be with you

Oh, here I stand and when I fall
Only you come back for more
Your love is so unique
You knock me off my feet

Girl I'll never give you up
'Cause ain't no other good enough
And nothing can compare to you
I waited all my life to be with you

Here I stand and when I fall
Only you come back for more
Your love is so divine
You're always on my mind

Girl I'll never give you up
'Cause ain't no other good enough
And nothing can compare to you
I waited all my life to be with you

Raphael Saadiq (born Charlie Ray Wiggins on May 14, 1966 in Oakland, California) is an acclaimed American music artist. He is a singer, songwriter and record producer associated with the neo-soul music movement.

Saadiq made a name for himself as the lead vocalist in the rhythm and blues and dance trio Tony! Toni! Toné!. He went by his birth name during the beginning of Tony! Toni! Toné!, where he was joined by his brother Dwayne Wiggins, and his cousin Timothy Christian. He adopted the name of Raphael Saadiq in the mid-1990s.

After the 1996 Tony! Toni! Toné! album, House of Music, (when he performed under his current name) Saadiq started his solo career. He produced a few solo tracks, but Saadiq's next big project became the R&B supergroup Lucy Pearl. He recorded the self-titled album with Dawn Robinson (En Vogue) and Ali Shaheed Muhammad (A Tribe Called Quest). This group only lasted for one album. His solo album Instant Vintage, released in 2002, also earned 5 Grammy nominations.

Saadiq released his third solo album, The Way I See It, on September 16 2008, featuring collaborations with Stevie Wonder and Joss Stone. Saadiq acknowledges the album's old school soul sound, which he says includes nods to Gladys Knight & The Pips, Al Green, The Four Tops, The Delfonics and The Stylistics.

Various artists have tapped Saadiq to produce their work through the years. Some of Saadiq's most notable work has been with D'Angelo. The 2000 collaboration "Untitled" won D'Angelo a Grammy award for Best R&B Album. In 2007, Saadiq was called on to produce the whole third album from UK Soul singer Joss Stone. Other artists he has collaborated with include The Roots, Macy Gray, Snoop Dogg, Kelis, Q-Tip and Young Bellz.

In 2002, Saadiq founded his own record label, Pookie Entertainment. Among the artists on the label are Joi and Truth Hurts.

Saadiq has been playing music since the age of six. Back in the 1970s and 1980s, he played bass at church and school. He also enjoyed his on-stage moments at various local events of his hometown.
