'Til You Do Me Right Lyrics

I was in love with you
And gave my heart to you
I did my best
To keep you satisfied

You took the love from me
And used it selfishly
You did not give back
Your love to me at all

I gave the sun to you
You said it was too bright
I gave you diamond rings
You said they didn't shine

I gave my world to you
But you said it's not enough
What in the world could I have done
To make you be so rough?

'Til you do me right
I don't even wanna talk to you
I don't even wanna hear
You speak my name

And 'til you do me right
Only wrong is gonna come to you
Nothin' good is gonna come
'Til you change, change your ways
Until you change your evil ways

Girl, I was there for you
Someone you could talk to
How could you just keep
Breakin' my heart?

What did I do to you
To make you be so cruel?
I don't understand
Why you've been so wrong

I tried to be your strength
You said I was too strong
I tried to compromise so
We could get along

I gave my love to you despite
Your evil ways
I guess it's clear to me there's only
One thing left to say

'Til you do me right
I don't even wanna talk to you
I don't even wanna hear
You speak my name

'Til you do me right
Only wrong is gonna come to you
Nothin' good is gonna come
'Til you change, change your ways
Until you change your evil ways

There's a time when you know
What you feel inside your heart
It's tellin' you that
Somethin' feels strange

You don't have to deny it
All you gotta do is just try it
You'll find our love grows
Stronger if you're willin' to change

'Til you do me right
I don't even wanna talk to you
I don't even wanna hear
You speak my name

'Til you do me right
Only wrong is gonna come to you
Nothin' good is gonna come
'Til you change your ways
'Til you do me right
I don't even wanna talk to you
I don't even wanna hear
You speak my name
'Til you do me right
Only wrong is gonna come to you
Nothin' good is gonna come
'Til you change, change your ways
Until you change your evil ways
'Til you do me right
I don't even want to talk to you
I don't even want to hear
You speak my name

After 7 was an R&B group, founded in 1988 by brothers Melvin and Kevon Edmonds and Keith Mitchell. The Edmonds brothers are the older siblings of popular pop and R&B singer-songwriter Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds" while Mitchell is the cousin of Babyface's then-partner, songwriter-producer Antonio "L.A." Reid.

The band released their first album issued self-titled debut in autumn 1989, which included the hits, "Sayanora", "Heat of the Moment", "Can't Stop" and the quiet storm staple, "Ready or Not". After promoting the album and seeing it go to platinum, they scored a hit with the Motown-influenced "Nights Like This" on the 1991 soundtrack to The Five Heartbeats. The trio returned with 1992's Takin' My Time, which included the hit cover of The Originals' "Baby I'm For Real". The trio released their last album, with Reflections, in 1995, which included the hit, "'Til You Do Me Right". After Mitchell split from After 7 in 1997, the Edmonds brothers continued performing, releasing the cover of Hall & Oates' "Sara Smile" before silently disbanding that year.

The brothers continue to perform in venues for reunions. Both Kevon and Melvin Edmonds appear with Babyface in the film Soul Food, as members of the R&B group Milestone and performing the song "I Care About You". In 1999, Kevon Edmonds released a solo LP, which included the single "24/7." In 2006 they appeared on the New Jack Reunion Tour. Read more on Last.fm.
