Lyrics
EMOTIONS

One of Mariah’s
most popular tracks ever. You can
still listen to this song all over pop radio stations these days. It’s definitely one of her most
representative early works.
►EMOTIONS
chorus:
You've got me feeling emotions
Deeper than I've ever dreamed of
You've got me feeling emotions
Higher than the heavens above
I feel good
I feel nice
I've never felt so
Satisfied
I'm in love
I'm alive
Intoxicated
Flying high
It feel like a dream
When you touch me tenderly
I don't know if it's real
But I like the way I feel
Inside
chorus:
You've got me feeling emotions
Deeper than I've ever dreamed of
You've got me feeling emotions
Higher than the heavens above
In the morning
When I rise
You are the first thing
On my mind
And in the middle
Of the night
I feel your heartbeat
next to mine
It feels like a dream
When you love me tenderly
I don't know if you're for real
But I like the way I feel
Inside
chorus:
You've got me feeling emotions
Deeper than I've ever dreamed of
You've got me feeling emotions
Higher than the heavens above
You know the way to make me
lose control
When you're looking into my eyes
You make me feel so
High
chorus:
You've got me feeling emotions
Deeper than I've ever dreamed of
You've got me feeling emotions
Higher than the heavens above
►AND YOU
DON’T REMEMBER
Shattered
dreams
Cut through my mind
Tragically our love has died
Memories confine my head
Bitterly I face the end
Trustingly
I gave myself to you
I let you inside
Believing your lies
And you don't remember
Every time you told me
You were mine for ever
For eternity
And you don't remember
How you used to hold me
How we'd melt together
How you needed me
How we used to be
In love
Stranded here
In nothingness
With only tears
And loneliness
Foolishly
I gave my soul to you
I let you inside
Believing your lies
And you don't remember (And you don't remember)
Every time you told me (Every time you told me)
You were mine for ever
For eternity, hmm
And you don't remember (And you don't remember)
How you used to hold me (How you used to hold me)
How we'd melt together, yeah, hey
How you needed me
How we used to be
Oh, helplessly
I fell so deep
I was so naive
To let you in
Why did I let you in
To my...
And you don't remember (No)
Every time you told me (Anything that you told me)
You were mine forever (You were mine forever)
For eternity
Yes, you were
Oh, no, you don't remember (And you don't remember)
How you used to hold me (How you used to hold me)
How we'd melt together
Together
How you needed me
How we used to be
In love
CAN’T LET
GO

The second
single from Emotions. Peaked the #2
position but its popularity was notable.
Nice ballad and one of her best videos (I Think).
►CAN’T LET
GO
There you are
holding her hand
I am lost
Dying to understand
Didn't I cherish you right
Don't you know you were my life
Even though I try I can't let go
Something in your eyes
Captured my soul
And every night I see you in my dreams
You're all I know
I can't let go
Just cast aside
You don't even know I'm alive
You just walk on by
Don't care to see me cry
And here I am
Still holding on
I can't accept
My world is gone
No, no
Even though I try I can't let go
Something in your eyes
Captured my soul
And every night I see you in my dreams
You're all I know
I can't let go
Oh...
Do you even realize the sorrow I have inside
Everyday of my life
Do you know the way it feels
When all you have just dies
I try and try to deny that I need you
But still you remain on my mind
Even though I try (No, no)
I can't let go (I just can't get you out of my mind)
Something in your eyes (I never can)
Captured my soul (Say goodbye)
And every night I see you in my dreams
You're all I know
I can't let you go
Even though I try I can't let go
Something in your eyes (Something)
Captured my soul (Of my soul)
(That I need, someway) And every night I see you in my dreams
You're all I know
I can't let go
Ooh baby
MAKE IT HAPPEN

As I’ve said before, one of her best tracks, inspiring lyrics and nice
rhythmic music. It was a Top Five
hit.
►MAKE IT
HAPPEN
Not more
than three short years ago
I was abandoned and alone
Without a penny to my name
So very young and so afraid
No proper shoes upon my feet
Sometimes I couldn't even eat
I often cried myself to sleep
But still I had to keep on going
Never knowing
If I could take it
If I would make it through the night
I held on to my faith
I struggled and I prayed
And now
I've found my way
If you believe in yourself enough
And know what you want
You're gonna make it happen
Make it happen
And if you get down on your knees at night
And pray to the lord
He's gonna make it happen
Make it happen
You're gonna make it happen
Oh, yeah
I know life can be so tough
And you feel like giving up
But you must be strong
Baby, just hold on
You'll never find the answers
If you throw your life away
I used to feel the way you do
Still I have to keep on going
Never knowing
If I could take it
If I would make it through the night
I held on to my faith
I struggled and I prayed
And now
I've finally found my way...
If you believe in yourself enough
And know what you want
You're gonna make it happen (Yes)
Make it happen (I know, you're gonna make it happen)
And if you get down on your knees at night
And pray to the lord
He's gonna make it happen
He's gonna make it happen
If you believe in yourself enough (If you believe)
And know what you want
You're gonna make it happen (Yes you are)
Make it happen (Make it happen)
And if you get down on your knees at night
And pray to the lord - You just gotta hold on
He's gonna make it happen
Make it happen
Make it happen...
Oh, yes
Make it (Make it)
You're gonna make it
Make it (Make it)
Oh, make it
Make it through the night
I held on to my faith
I struggled and I prayed
And finally found my way...
If you believe in yourself enough
And know what you want
You're gonna make it happen
Make it happen
And if you get down on your knees at night
And pray to the lord
He's gonna make it happen
Make it happen (Yes he is)
If you believe in yourself enough (If you believe)
And know what you want
You're gonna make it happen
Make it happen (You can make it)
And if you get down on your knees at night
And pray to the lord
He's gonna make it happen
Make it happen (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
I once was lost
But now I'm found
I got my feet on solid ground
Thank you Lord
If you believe within your soul
Just hold on tight
And don't let go
You can make it
Make it happen
Yeah
You can make it
Make it happen
Gonna make it
Gonna make it
You're gonna make it
If you believe in yourself enough - Gonna make it
And know what you want (Gonna make it)
You're gonna make it happen
Make it happen
And if you get down on your knees at night
And pray to the lord
He's gonna make it happen
Make it happen
If you believe in yourself enough
And know what you want
You're gonna make it happen
Make it happen
And if you get down on your knees at night
And pray to the lord
He's gonna make it happen
Make it happen
►IF IT’S
OVER
Won't you
talk to me
This is so out of hand, out of hand
Something's gone wrong, hmm
With the life we than planned, yeah
Won't you look at me
You're avoiding my gaze, yes you are
And it seems like you've changed
In so many ways
Yeah
It isn't fair
It isn't right
If it's really gone
Then tell me tonight
If it's over (Over)
If it's over
Let me go (Just let me go)
Won't you speak to me
I'm just holding on, holding on
'Cause baby I really don't need to wait around
Oh, no
If the feeling is gone
Oh, it isn't fair
It isn't right
'Cause if it's really gone
Then tell me tonight, baby
Yeah, yeah
If it's over (Over)
If it's over
Let me go (Just let me go)
Let me go
Don't you know
I don't need no apologies, no
I'm not looking for no sympathy, oh
All I'm asking for
Is for your honesty
Won't you give it to me
Give it to me now
It isn't fair
It just isn't right
'Cause if it's really gone
You've got to say the word tonight
Oh, yeah
If it's over (Over)
If it's over
Baby if it's over (Just let me know)
Won't you let me know
Baby if it's over (Over)
If it's oh...
Over, let me go (Just let me go)
Ooh, yeah
►YOU’RE SO
COLD
Lord only
knows
Why I love you so
You're a heartless man
I don't understand
Why you gotta be
Why do you need to be
So cold (So)
So cold...
So cold
How can you be
So cold
So cruel to me (You are)
Ice cold
Don't even feel
Your kiss is like fire
But deep down inside
You're so cold
You play games with my mind
Cheat and lie time after time
And I know you'll never change
But I just can't break away
I don't know why I let you treat me the way you do
Oh, you're just no good for me
I wish I never fell for you
You are
So cold
How can you be (Oh, baby)
So cold
So cruel to me
Ice cold
Don't even feel
Your kiss is like fire
But deep down inside
You're so cold
Oh, oh, so cold
Oh, so many times
You keep me waiting around endlessly
You just laugh as I drown in despair
Never a worry, never a care
I don't know why I let you hurt me the way you do
Oh, you've got a spell on me
I'm hopelessly in love with you
So cold (Yes)
How can you be (How can you be)
So cold (Oh, ooh)
So cruel to me (Your heart)
Ice cold (Oh, yeah)
Don't even feel
Your kiss is like fire
But deep down inside
You're so cold
So cold
How can you be (How can you be so cold)
So cold (To me)
So cruel to me ('Cause your heart)
Ice cold (Ice cold)
Don't even feel
Your kiss is on fire
But deep down inside
You're so cold
Made of stone
Oh you're wicked to the bone
I give you my heart
You tear me apart
You're like a devil (You're like a devil in)
In disguise
Oh, so Cold
Oh
So cold
How can you be (How can you be, how can you be)
So cold
So cruel to me - I can take it no more)
Ice cold (No more, no)
Don't even feel
I can't wait another day
Now I've got to break away
So cold
How can you be
So cold
So cruel to me (Baby, your heart is)
Ice cold (So cold)
Don't even feel
Your kiss is like fire
But deep down inside
You're so cold
So cold
Oh... yeah
So cold
Ice cold (Oh, yeah)
Your kiss is like fire
But deep down inside
You're so cold

►THE WIND
The wind has
taken you
You're free finally at peace
So still you lie
Leaving your cares behind
The pain is gone
Gone with the spirit in your eyes
Now you're wandering around
Above us
Looking downward
As we cry
You've flown into the wind
Escaping all the hurt within
Took to, to the sky
Leaving the world behind
So young to die
How could you let it all pass you by
And to the wind go so many dreams
That you held inside
Now you're just a memory
Burning in my mind
My mind...
Do, do, do, do, do, yeah
So young to die
Oh, how could you let life pass you by
And now you'll never know I loved you
And now you'll never know I cared
Hmm
I really loved you
And now you'll never know
You'll only fade
Into the wind

Merely one year after the release of Mariah’s smash-hit self-titled
debut album, Columbia Records released her second project called “Emotions”
which immediately became a success in America and gave the recently-born star
a new #1 hit song (her consecutive fifth one). In my opinion, Emotions gave one of Mariah’s most inspiring and
worth hearing song: “Make It Happen” among other cool tracks like “Can’t Let
Go” or “To Be Around You”. LC
