[Intro]
Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome D'Angelo and the Vanguard
[Betray My Heart]
[Verse 1]
As the day must have its sun
And the night must have its moon
Sure as both must rise and fall
I'll be there to see you through
Just as long as there is time
I will never leave your side
And if ever that you feel
That my love's not sincere
[Chorus]
I will never betray my heart
I will never betray my heart
I will never betray my heart, yeah
[Verse 2]
Like the breeze that blows in June
I will respond to keep you cool
This I swear with all that's true
I'll take nothing in place of you
When you're feeling down (Down, down, down)
You're in deep
You, my soul, can depend on me, mmm
You don't ever have to fear
That my love is not sincere
[Chorus]
I will never betray my heart
I will never betray my heart
I will never betray my heart, yeah, mmm
(Oh, oh, to the bridge)
[Bridge]
Through the storm, and through the rain
I'll come running to ease your pain, yeah
Like the rails that cross the trains
Like the blood in your veins
[Chorus]
I will never betray my heart
I will never betray my heart
I will never betray my heart
[Bridge]
Hey, hey, shooby-doo-doo-doo-doo
I said won't betray
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh, oh
[Verse 3]
Like the breeze that blows in June
I will respond to keep you cool
This I swear with all that's true
I'll take nothing in place of you, yeah
When you're feeling down (Down, down, down)
You're in deep, yeah
You, my soul, can depend on me, mmm
You don't ever have to fear
That my love is not sincere
[Chorus]
I will never betray my heart
I will never betray my heart
I will never betray my heart, yeah, mmm, mmm
(Oh, no, oh yeah, to the bridge, yeah)
[Outro]
Oh, I'm gonna stay right (Gonna stay right here)
Oh, stay right here (Stay right here)
Oh, I feel good (I feel good)
Alright (Alright)
Alright (Alright)
Baby, I've been good to you (Been good to you)
Alright (Alright)
Alright, hey, baby, baby, baby, baby
Talk about it (Talk about it)
I wanna talk about it (Wanna talk about it)
Baby (Baby), have I been good to you? (Been good to you)
Alright, alright, alright, ah, ah, alright, oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh, I've been good to you, baby
[Spanish Joint]
[Intro]
Oh-oh, oh-oh, yeah
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh
[Verse 1]
Whenever it rains I feel this way
A little somethin' to get me through this day
Yeah, give me a little that, no time flat
Gonna be a good thing, yeah
Serene but in need of feelin' free
Lettin' go and landin' on my feet
Hey, brushed the dirt off my back, no time flat
Gonna be a good thing, oh
[Chorus]
Well, people believe this sayin' is true
(They believe the sayin' is true)
Whatever will be, will forever do
Whatever the cost, I'll pay in full
'Cause I don't want nothin' to do with you
[Post-Chorus]
Do with you, hey, hey, hey, oh, oh, oh, oh
Check it out
[Verse 2]
Gotta get out, gotta get out of here
I'm in the dark and the light looks sincere, yeah
Brushed the dirt off my back, no time flat, yeah
Gonna be a good thing
All you do is complain about your pain, yeah
And the cloud that follows you won't cease to rain, yeah
Don't look back, handle that
Make it into a good thing, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
Somethin' in me's gotta be
Soul controller in control of me
A link in your chain just won't do (Just won't do)
I don't want nothin' to do with you
[Instrumental Break]
[Harmonizing]
[Verse 4]
Somethin' stirrin' inside of me's gotta be
Soul controller in control of me (Soul controller inside)
A link in your chain just won't do (Just won't do)
I don't want nothin' to do with you
[Chorus]
Well, people believe this sayin' is true (Oh, the sayin's true, baby)
Whatever will be, will forever do
Whatever the cost, I'll pay in full
I don't want nothin' to do with you
(Yeah, I ain't got nothin' to do with you, no, no)
I don't want nothin' to do with you (No, yeah, yeah)
I don't want nothin', nothin' to do with you
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
Oh
Oh, oh, oh
Ow, ow, right here
Oh baby, yeah, baby, you treat me cold
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, baby
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, I don't want nothin' to do with you (Nothin')
I don't want nothin' to do with you
I don't want nothin', nothin' to do with you
Nothin' to do with you
