Uncle Sam - When I See You Smile

Uncle Sam's "When I See You Smile" is a touching song about how a loved one can empower you and make you feel like everything is going to be okay.



Uncle Sam - When I See You Smile Lyrics

Sometimes I wonder
How I ever make it through
Through this world without having you
I just wouldn't have a clue
And sometimes it seems
Like this this world's closing on me
And there's no way of breaking free
Then I see you reach out for me, ohhhhh

Sometimes I wanna give up
Wanna give in
Wanna quit the fight
Then one look at you baby
Can make everything alright
Make everything alright

[Chorus]
When I see you smile
I can face the world
Ohhh, you know that I can do anything
When I see you smile
I see a ray of light
Ohhh, I see shining right through the rain
When I see you smile
Baby when I see you smile at me

Baby theres nothing in this world I can ever do
What a touch of your hands can do
It's like nothing I ever knew
Ohhh, and when the rain is fallin
I can hear it
Cuz your hear with me
And one look at you baby
Is all I ever need
Is all I ever need, ohhhhhhhhh

[Chorus]
When I see you smile
I can face the world
Ohhh, you know that I can do anything
When I see you smile
I see a ray of light
Ohhh, I see shining right through the rain
When I see you smile
Baby when I see you smile at me

Sometimes I wanna give up
Wanna give in
Wanna quit the fight
Then one look at you baby
Can make everything alright
Make everything alright
Ohhh, baby

[Chorus X 2]
When I see you smile
I can face the world
Ohhh, you know that I can do anything
When I see you smile
I see a ray of light
Ohhh, I see shining right through the rain
When I see you smile
Baby when I see you smile at me

Sam Salter - There You Are

Sam Salter's "There You Are" is a great testament to a man's love for a woman.



Sam Salter - There You Are Lyrics

Like a candle with a flame
That never dies
Through the good and bad
You've been by my side
And when the world outside
Is feeling so unkind
You were there to pick me up
Oh, how i need your smile

[Chorus]
Whenever I fall
There you are
I know that my pain
you feel in your heart
And when the life that I live
Seems so hard
There you are

Even though you're far away
I can still see you
Sometimes I swear you're still
Inside my mind
Tell me you are the shadow
That always follows me
You always seem to be right there
You're like an angel by my side

[Chorus]
Whenever I fall
There you are
I know that my pain
you feel in your heart
And when the life that I live
Seems so hard
There you are

Unconditional loving
Is what you've given me
Your heart is all that I want to know
Forever in you I have a home
I'll stay by your side
Cause you are the light
In my heart
And in my life
Oh whenever I look
And there you are

Jon B - What I Like About You

Jon B's album Stronger Everyday came out in 2004 and was slept on. However, part of that album was the rock solid "What I Like About You." Done with Babyface, this jam is fire and a great R&B love song. The track is an uptempo jam, a little different for both artists, but they run it well. Telling a girl all the things they like about her, the song is sweet with a lot of love to it.

Jon B - What I Like About You Lyrics
You have this way about you, that's so adorable, you have this way about you, that's so adorable
Ain't nothing fake about you, girl you're so approachable

And I wanna let you know, it ain't just cause your beautiful
But I don't mind the physical but we go so much deeper yo
And I ain't never thought I would say no s**t like that

That's what I like about you
You know how to make a player proud
Yeah, that's what I like about, that's what I like about you

Verse 2:
You're so incredible, it's understandable
That's why I'm always trying to floss you, you're so bankable
Girl, do you even know the damage that you cause
I'll do just bout anything for you, even damn near break the law
And If the world was ending I know just where I would wanna go
Just one day left what to do, spend my last minutes with you
And I ain't never thought I would say no s**t like that to you

You're the reason why I always come home early girl
Cause I know you'll be there waiting for me
And I got no reason for me to second guess you girl
I know you're crazy bout me

All my life
I prayed for someone like you
And I thank God that I, that I finally found you

Jesse Powell - You

When I made a post of great wedding songs, everyone immediately jumped on me for not including Jesse Powell's You. The reason? The song is an amazing R&B wedding song and a great love song. I've never really listened to much of Jesse Powell but he sings this song nice and smooth and tells a girl that he loves her and wants to be with her. A solid song and well worth a listen.

Jesse Powell - You Music Video


Jesse Powell - You Lyrics
I've finally found the nerve to say
I'm gonna make a change in my life starting here today
I surrender all my love I never thought I could
I'm giving all my love away and there's only one reason that I would
And baby it's you

The way you walk, the way you talk
The way you say my name your smile
The way you move me, the way you soothe me
The way you sleep softly through the night
Every morning you rise and open your eyes
I just wanna be there with you baby
I just wanna be yours from this day forth

Next year lets call this day our anniversary
The day I put my heart in your hand and said that it was yours to keep
From this moment on say that you'll always be mine
'Cause girl when I'm alone with you there's only one thing that's on my mind
And baby it's you...

The way you walk, the way you talk
The way you say my name your smile
The way you move me, the way you soothe me
The way you sleep softly through the night
Every morning you rise and open your eyes
I just wanna be there with you baby
I just wanna be yours from this day forth

I just wanna be yours from this day forth
From this day forth

The way you walk, the way you talk
The way you say my name your smile
The way you move me, the way you soothe me
The way you sleep softly through the night
Every morning you rise and open your eyes
I just wanna be there with you baby
I just wanna be yours from this day forth

The way you walk, the way you talk
The way you say my name your smile
The way you move me, the way you soothe me
The way you sleep softly through the night
Every morning you rise and open your eyes
I just wanna be there with you baby
I just wanna be yours from this day forth

The way you walk, the way you talk
The way you say my name your smile
The way you move me, the way you soothe me
The way you sleep softly through the night
Every morning you rise and open your eyes
I just wanna be there with you baby
I just wanna be yours from this day forth

It's a romantic song and the guys take it slow as they ask a girl if they've ever told her how much they love her. A great song through and through, and filled with love.

A Few Good Men - Have I Never Lyrics
[Chorus]
Have I never told you I love you
Have I never told you I care
Have I never told you how much I need you
Have I ever, ever not being there

If I never told you I care
Girl, I swear to you it's not because the feelings not there
I ll promise to you from the top of my soul
The bottom of my heart, girl, don't you know

Have I never (Ooh) told you I love you (Told)
Have I never told you the words
Baby, I love you, you know I love you
Just know that I love you

Have I ever told you I miss you
Have I ever hurt your heart
Girl, I never ever meant to mistreat you
I could never knowingly break your heart

If I ever caused you to feel
The words I speak straight from my heart are not very real
I promise to you from the tip of my heart
To the depths of my soul I pray that you know
I love you now, I love you then and will forever more

[Chorus]
Have I never (Oh, ho) told you I love you (I love you, baby)
Have I never (Have I never, never) told you the words
Baby, I love you (Baby, I, you know I), you know I love you
Just know that I love you (Yeah)

You will always (Be my) be my lady
And I promise (Promise) I will never (Mmm) break your heart (Heart)

(I know that I love you, baby)
Baby, I love you (I want you to know that I love you, baby), you know I love you
Just know that I love you

Joe - No One Else Comes Close

Joe's All That I Am album was packed with solid tracks. This one however, was one of my favorites, and given the multiple versions of it on the album, it seems to have been a favorite of many people. It's a great love song as Joe tells a woman that no one else could ever come close to the way she is or ever take her place. Overall, a very sweet song!

Joe - No One Else Comes Close Live


Joe - No One Else Comes Close Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When we turn out the lights
The two of us alone together
Something's just not right
But girl you know that I
Would never ever let another's touch
Come between the two of us
Cause no one else will ever take your place

[Chorus]
No one else comes close to you
No one makes me feel the way you do
You're so special girl, to me
And you'll always be, eternally
Everytime I hold you near
You always say the words I love to hear
Girl with just a touch, you can do so much

No one else comes close

[Verse 2]
And when I wake up to
The touch of your head on my shoulder
You're my dream come true
Oh, girl you know I'll always treasure
Every kiss, every day
I love you girl in every way
And I always will cause in my eyes

[Chorus X 2]
No one else comes close to you
No one makes me feel the way you do
You're so special girl, to me
And you'll always be, eternally
Everytime I hold you near
You always say the words I love to hear
Girl with just a touch, you can do so much

No one else comes close
No one else comes close

Damn I love you

All 4 One - Beautiful As U

From All 4 One's A41 album, released in 2002, "Beautiful As U," is a romantic track. The song moves more towards adult contemporary than classic R&B but the guys sound great and the message is beautiful. What a great way to tell a girl you love her than to tell her there's nothing in this world that could ever be as beautiful as she. Overall, a great R&B Love Song.

All 4 One - Beautiful As U Audio


All 4 One - Beautiful As U Lyrics
From the moment I saw you
From the moment I looked into your eyes
There was something about you I knew, I knew
That you were once in a lifetime
A treasure near impossible to find
And I know how lucky I am to have you

[Chorus]
Cause I've seen rainbows that could take your breath away
The beauty of the setting sun, on any given day
And when it comes to shooting stars I have seen a few
But I've never seen anything as beautiful as you

I can't believe that I have you
I can't believe that you're here in my arms
I've been waiting a life time for you, for you
And I've dreamed about you
Pictured in my mind who I would see
But I never imagined just how beautiful you'd be

[Chorus]
Cause I've seen rainbows that could take your breath away
(take your breath away)
The beauty of the setting sun, on any given day (any given day)
And when it comes to shooting stars I have seen a few
But I've never seen anything as beautiful as you

I've seen rainbows that could take your breath away
(take your breath away)
The beauty of the setting sun, on any given day
And when it comes to shooting stars I have seen a few
But I've never seen anything as beautiful
But I've never seen anything as beautiful as you

From the moment I saw you
From the moment I looked into your eyes

Wayne Brady - All Naturally

This song is from Wayne Brady's debut album, A Long Time Coming, which came out in 2008. It's hard to imagine Wayne Brady doing R&B, let alone an R&B Love song, but he could always sing on Who's Line Is It Anyway? So I guess it's not that crazy.

Anyways, the track is All Naturally and it's a great one to tell your girl you love her no matter what time of day or how she's feeling.

Wayne Brady - All Naturally Audio


Wayne Brady - All Naturally Lyrics
Baby you look so good just like that
No, take off that make up.
Let me see your face...
Look at you...

Love to see you in the morning right as you're waking up.
Sure the last thing on your mind is just how good you look.
You never have to try hard.
Your beauty's way off the charts
Waking up with you still takes my breath away.

Cuz it so amazing girl to be with someone like you
Outside your stunting just as deep on the inside too
Even in tennis shoes and jeans
Always look so hot to me
So baby listen carefully

[Chorus]
You don't have to wear lipstick
To make me want to come taste your kisses.
And you don't have to get your hair did
I still wanna run my finger all through it
And you don't have to get your nails done
With your girlfriends at the corner store,
It's not gonna make you more beautiful
You don't have to wear lingerie, just to impress me...
Cause I love you all Naturally. Naturally.

Every time you and I go out the fellas just stop and stare.
I don't know if they see me but you're so fine they just don't care
I never get too upset
Cause girl I know who you with
Matter fact it validates the way I feel

You always think if you're not made up no one will look
But girl you could put make-up out of business for good
Cause on a scale of 1 to 10
You're about a one million
So mama pay close attention

[Chorus]
You don't have to wear lipstick
To make me want to come taste your kisses.
And you don't have to get your hair did
I still wanna run my finger all through it
And you don't have to get your nails done
With your girlfriends at the corner store,
It's not gonna make you more beautiful
You don't have to wear lingerie, just to impress me...
Cause I love you all naturally. Naturally.

I want you girl so Naturally,
I want you girl so Naturally,
I want you girl so Naturally,
I want you girl soooo
I want you girl so Naturally,
I want you girl so Naturally,
I want you girl so Naturally,
Baby...

[Chorus]
You don't have to wear lipstick
To make me want to come taste your kisses.
And you don't have to get your hair did
I still wanna run my finger all through it
And you don't have to get your nails done
With your girlfriends at the corner store,
It's not gonna make you more beautiful
You don't have to wear lingerie, just to impress me...
Cause I love you all naturally. Naturally.
