We've had such a great time
In these past two months
I never laughed so much
In my life
It's been all about us
Since that time we had
That intimate talk
Suddenly your actin' strange
Plus your conversation
Just snapped and changed
Is it because your afraid of
What you feelin' for me
Is the beginning of a
New heart break?
Hear me when I say
You ain't gotta
Give me your love
You ain't gotta
Say I'm your one
You ain't gotta
Tell me where you be
'Cause you ain't
Obligated to me
I'm not sayin' that
You should just
Rush and give me
Your heart
I'm just askin' that you
Like me real hard
Just like me real hard
You know just like god know
We've been broken by love
And we both need time to heal
That's why
In this short amount of time
We've grown so close
'Cause you relate
Everything I feel
So let's not complicate things
By placing titles on you and I
But what we can do
Before we make the next move
We gotta find the perfect
Reason why
So believe me when I say
You ain't gotta
Give me your love
You ain't gotta
Say I'm your one
You ain't gotta
Tell me where you be
'Cause you ain't
Obligated to me
I'm not sayin' that
You should just
Rush and give me
Your heart
I'm just askin' that you
Like me real hard
Just like me real hard
You ain't ready
To fall in love
And I ain't ready to
Care so much
We ain't ready for commitment
Right now
But together we can
Work something out
When the time is right
Cause we will feel it in our hearts
It will be written in the stars
But for now
Just like me real hard
You ain't gotta
Give me your love
You ain't gotta
Say I'm your one
You ain't gotta
Tell me where you be
'Cause you ain't
Obligated to me
I'm not sayin' that
You should just
Rush and give me
Your heart
I'm just askin' that you
Like me real hard
Just like me real hard
You ain't gotta
Give me your love
You ain't gotta
Say I'm your one
You ain't gotta
Tell me where you be
'Cause you ain't
Obligated to me
I'm not sayin' that
You should just
Rush and give me
Your heart
I'm just askin' that you
Like me real hard
Just like me real hard
Mario出生在马里兰州的巴尔的摩，早在四岁时就想当一名歌手，小时候妈妈给了他一架钢琴和一个卡拉OK机，鼓励他学习音乐，并送他参加一个又一个的才艺比赛。凭借着柔美的歌声与惊人的演唱才华，年仅十五岁的Mario不单是J Records于2002年下半所推出的秘密武器，同时也是传媒眼中继Usher、Michael Jackson、Stevie Wonder等年纪轻轻即出道的前辈之后，音乐生涯最具远景的新生代歌手。 USA Today的乐评赞扬Mario“超龄的成熟嗓音令他出类拔萃”；而刚出道即以首张专辑荣获五座葛莱美奖的同门师姊Alicia Keys也形容他“不仅个性鲜明，还有着我从未听过的美丽与原创歌声。他的声音不同于任何人，经由时间的淬炼，他的歌艺当会更加精进。” 在家乡巴尔的摩的选秀会上脱颖而出之后，Mario受到J Records总裁Clive Davis的青睐，并迁居纽约筹制首张同名专辑，推出后获得了Billboard专辑排行榜第九名和R&B/Hip-Hop专辑排行榜季军的好成绩。。 选自辑中的首支单曲《Just A Friend 2002》，脱胎自HIP-HOP传奇人物Biz Markie发表八九年的畅销单曲《Just A Friend》，致敬意味浓厚。而担纲谱写与制作的正是曾为Dru Hill、Sisqo、Total、O-Town打造排行佳绩的乐坛老将Warryn Campbell。
自从凭借向Biz Markie致敬的单曲《Just A Friend 2002》迈足当代都市音乐殿堂两年后，Mario带着他的第二张专辑《Turning Point》以及非常卖座的单曲"Just a Friend"杀回来了。千万不要小看这张单曲，她是由Terror Squad今年夏天在全球超火爆的单曲"Lean Back" 的超级制作人Scott Storch和Mario共同创作的，她集都市音乐之大成，同时也是Mario所灌制的最赞的作品。
i’ve must have been blind
not to see you look away from me
whenever you say you love me still
i must have been crazy
not to see you slip away from me
day after day there’s a space to fill
and i can’t find the words,to make you fall in love with me agian
and i can’t find the strength to let you go oh oh
and when it’s all said and done,you’ll be the only one
even if there’s nothing left for us to say
as sure as the sun will rise i can never say goodbye
even if we go are separate ways
in my heart you’ll always stay
ooh ooh
been spending my time
to try to remind you of our love
but you’re pulling away with every touch
with all we’ve been though
i’d never thought i’d be losing you
and i would give everything to keep you here
but i can’t (but i can’t) find the words to make you fall in love with me again
even if there’s nothing left for us to say (nothing left to say)
even if we go are separate ways (ooh)
i,i,i still believe our love meant to be oh
and it will be here forever come one day (come,one,day) ooh ohoh
can you see? i love you faithfully oh yeh
and one day i’m telling you i find a way to get back to me ooh
and when it’s all said and done,you’ll be the only one (said and done)
oooh,nothing left to say
even if we go separate ways
i’ve must have been blind
not to see you look away from me
whenever you say you love me still
i must have been crazy
not to see you slip away from me
day after day there’s a space to fill
and i can’t find the words,to make you fall in love with me agian
and i can’t find the strength to let you go oh oh
and when it’s all said and done,you’ll be the only one
even if there’s nothing left for us to say
as sure as the sun will rise i can never say goodbye
even if we go are separate ways
in my heart you’ll always stay
ooh ooh
been spending my time
to try to remind you of our love
but you’re pulling away with every touch
with all we’ve been though
