Crybaby/ Can't Take That Away (2000)

Tras muchos problemas "Can't Take That Away" fue seleccionado como el tercer sencillo para "Rainbow". Digo problemas, porque el sello quería lanzar "How Much" y tras muchas discusiones la opinión de Mariah se impuso, la que incorporó "Crybaby" como lado b de el single.
No obstante, esto no termino aquí; porque en una decisión sorprendente Sony Music decidió no sacar a rotación radial el sencillo, lo que disminuyó considerablemente su promoción.
Lo anterior provocó, además, que comercialmente apareciera en las listas con el nombre de "Crybaby" (debido a que esta canción obtuvo más "airplay") y sólo llegara hasta el #28 de los Hot 100... la posición más baja lograda por un tema de Mariah en toda su carrera.
La "maniobra" de Sony provocó la ruptura definitiva con su mentor y ex marido, Tommy Mottola, y con su casa disquera, la que dejaría tras publicarse la banda sonora de "All That Glitters" a fin de este año o inicios del 2001.



Crybaby

When I Think Of Our Untimely End
And Everything We Could Have Been
I Cry, Baby I Cry

Ok So It's 5 a.m and
I Still Can't Sleep
I Took Some Medicine
But It's Not Working
Someone's Clinging To Me
And It's Bittersweet
Cause He's Head Over Heels
But Ain't That Deep
I Finally Changed My Number
Got A Different Pager
Then Last Saturday Night
Your Cousin Called to Say You're
Tryin' To Reach Me
Probably Because You See That
I'm With Someone New

Late At Night Like A Little Child
Wandering Around Alone In My New
Friend's Home
On My Tippy Toes
So That He Won't Know
I Still Cry Baby
Over You And Me

Sipping Bailey's Cream
By The Stereo
Trying To Find Relief
On The Radio
I'm Supressing The Tears
But They Start To Flow
'Cause The Next Song I Hear
Is A Song That I Wrote
When We First Got Together
Early That September
I Can't Bear To Listen
So I Might As Well Drift
In The Kitchen
Pour Another Glass Or Two
And Try To Forget You

Late At Night Like A Little Child
Wandering Around Alone In My New
Friend's Home
On My Tippy Toes
So That He Won't Know
I Still Cry Baby
Over You And Me

Snoop's Verse

Late At Night Like A Little Child
Wandering Around Alone In My New
Friend's Home
On My Tippy Toes
So That He Won't Know
I Still Cry Baby
Over You And Me

Late At Night Like A Little Child
Wandering Around Alone In My New
Friend's Home
On My Tippy Toes
So That He Won't Know
I Still Cry Baby
Over You And Me

Late At Night Like A Little Child
Wandering Around Alone In My New
Friend's Home
On My Tippy Toes
So That He Won't Know
I Still Cry Baby
Over You And Me

Can't Take That Away
(Mariah's Theme)

They Can Say
Anything They Want To Say
Try To Bring Me Down
But I Will Not Allow
Anyone To Succeed
Hanging Clouds Over Me
And They Can Try
Hard To Make Me Feel
That I Don't Matter At All
But I Refuse To Falter
In What I Believe
Or Lose Faith In My Dreams

Cause There's A Light In Me
That Shines Brightly
They Can Try
But They Can't Take That Away From Me
From Me

They Can Do
Anything They Want To You
If You Let Them In
But They Won't Ever Win
If You Climb To Your Pride
And Just Push Them Aside
See
I Have Learned
There´s An Inner Peace
I Own
Something In My Soul
That They Can't Possess
So I Won't Be Afraid
And The Darkness Will Fade

Cause There's A Light In Me
That Shines Brightly
They Can Try
But They Can't Take That Away From Me
No
They Can't Take This
Precious Love
I'll Always Have Inside Me
Certainly The Lord Will Guide Me
Where I Need To Go

They Can Say
Anything They Want To Say
Try To Bring Me Down
But I Won't Face The Ground
I Will Rise Steadily
Sailing Out Of Their Reach

Oh Lord
They Do Try
Hard To Make Me Feel
That I Don't Matter At All
But I Refuse To Falter
In What I Believe
Or Lose Faith In My Dreams

Cause There's A Light In Me
That Shines Brightly
They Can Try
But They Can't Take That Away From Me
From Me
