[Intro: Mariah Carey & Prodigy]
(Infamous, it don't stop)
Hmmm (Yeah, yeah, infamous, knock 'em out the box, yo)
Uhh
Hmm (Yeah, Infamous, knock 'em out the box)
Uh, ooh
Yeah, ooh
[Verse 1: Mariah Carey]
It wasn't raining yet (Yet)
But it was definitely (It was definitely)
A little misty on that warm November night
And my heart was pounding (Pounding)
My inner voice resounding
Begging me to turn away
But I just had to see your face to feel alive
[Pre-Chorus: Mariah Carey]
And then you casually walked into the room
And I was twisted in the web (And I was twisted)
Of my desire for you
My apprehension blew away
I only wanted you to taste my sadness
As you kissed me in thе dark
[Chorus: Mariah Carey]
Every time I feel the need
I еnvision you caressing me
And go back in time
To relive the splendor of you and I
On the rooftop that rainy night
[Verse 2: Mariah Carey]
And so we finished the Moet and
Started feeling liberated
And I surrendered as you took me
In your arms (You took me in your arms)
I was so caught up in the moment
I couldn't bear to let you go yet
So I threw caution to the wind
And started listening to my longing heart
[Pre-Chorus: Mariah Carey]
And then you softly pressed your lips to mine
And feelings surfaced I'd suppressed
For such a long time (And I was lifted)
And for a while I forgot the sorrow and pain
And melted with you as we stood there in the rain
[Chorus: Mariah Carey]
Every time I feel the need
I envision you caressing me (Envision you caressing me)
And go back in time
To relieve the splendor of you and I
On the rooftop that rainy night
Every time I feel the need
I envision you (Envision you) caressing me
And go back in time
To relive the splendor of you and I
On the rooftop that rainy night
[Bridge: Mariah Carey]
Last night I dreamed that I
Whispered the words 'I love you'
And touched you so very subtly
As we were kissing goodbye
[Verse 3: Prodigy]
(Infamous rocks your box)
I got you stuck off the realness
Feel this pourin' down on your buildings
The rain about to fall, I score up in the project hall
Third floor, grab a taste on the staircase
As we embrace, strictly lye without the raw base
Me and my ol' dog blowin' out the smokes fog
But overall, you the one that's like my pistol, I see it crystal
Keep you on my side, you official
[Verse 4: Havoc & Big Noyd]
Yo, yo, yo, ain't it ill how we click, boo? Me and you
Got me stuck off the realness, just me and you
Up on the roofpiece, Pebble Beach
Talk to me anytime, even when I'm with my peeps
Roll a L while you smell like the perfume Chanel
Push big Jeeps, Rapper Noyd, simply hit me
We can do it on a rooftop, do it 'til we both drop
M-O-B-B with Mariah sounds so hot
[Chorus: Mariah Carey]
(Every time) Every time (Every time) I feel the need
I envision you caressing me (Envision you caressing me)
And go back in time (I go back)
To relive the splendor of you and I
On the rooftop that rainy night (On the roof that rainy night)
Every time I feel the need (When I feel the need)
I envision you caressing me
(I envision you over and over and over again)
And go back in time
To relive the splendor of you and I
(It was, oh, so sweet you and I)
On the rooftop that rainy night (On that rainy night)
Every time I feel the need
(Last night I had the strangest dream)
I envision you caressing me (It was actually quite symbolic)
And go back in time (As I whispered that I loved you)
To relive the splendor of you and I (Very subtly)
On the rooftop that rainy night
[Outro: Mariah Carey, Prodigy, Havoc]
Every time I feel the need
(Infamous, ya don't stop, Infamous rocks your box)
I envision you caressing me
(Infamous knock 'em out the box)
And go back in time
To relieve the splendor of you and I
(Infamous rocks your box)
On the rooftop that rainy night
(Infamous knocks 'em out the box)
(Word up)
