The Roof (When I Feel the Need)

[Intro: Mobb Deep, Mobb Deep & Mariah Carey]
To all the killers and a hundred dollar billers
To all the killers and a hundred dollar billers

[Verse 1: Mariah Carey, Brandy & Both]
It wasn't raining yet (Yet)
But it was definitely (But it was definitely) a little misty on that warm November night
And my heart was pounding (Pounding)
My inner voice resounding (Ahh)
Begging me to turn away, but I just had to see your face
To feel alive (Feel alive)
And then you casually walked in the room (Ahh)
And I was twisted in the web of my desire for you (And I was twisted)
My apprehension blew away, I only wanted you
To taste my sadness as you kissed mе in the dark

[Chorus: Mariah Carey & Brandy]
Every time I feel thе need (And every time)
I envision you caressin' me
And go back in time (Back in time)
To relive the splendor of you and I
On the rooftop that rainy night

[Verse 2: Mariah Carey, Brandy & Both]
And so we finished the Moët and I 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)
So I threw caution to the wind and started listening to my longing heart (Heart)
And then you softly pressed your lips to mine (Ahh)
And feelings surfaced I'd suppressed for such a long time (And I was lifted)
And for a while I forgot the sorrow and the pain
And melted with you as we stood there in the rain

[Chorus: Mariah Carey & Brandy]
Every time I feel the need (And every time)
I envision you caressin' me (Envision you, caressin' me)
And go back in time (Back in time, back)
To relive the splendor of you and I (You)
On the rooftop that rainy night

[Bridge: Mariah Carey, Brandy & both]
Last night I (Last night I) dreamed that I (Dreamed that I)
Whispered the words I love you (That I love you, boy)
And touched you so very (Touched)
Subtly as we were kissing goodbye (Kiss, kiss, bye)
Pretty baby, boy (Pretty baby, boy)
How I'm missin' you

[Chorus: Mariah Carey & Brandy]
(Every time) Every time I feel the need (And every time)
I envision you caressin' me (Caressin' me)
And go back in time (Back in time)
To relive the splendor of you and I (I go back)
On the rooftop that rainy night (On the roof that rainy night)

[Chorus: Mariah Carey & Brandy]
Every time I feel the need (And every time, when I feel the need)
I envision you caressin' me (Over and, over and, over again)
And go back in time (Back in time)
To relive the splendor of you and I (It was, oh, so sweet)
On the rooftop that rainy night (On that rainy night)

[Chorus: Mariah Carey & Brandy]
Every time I feel the need (And every time, last night I had the strangest dream)
I envision you caressin' me (It was actually quite symbolic)
And go back in time (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 & Brandy]
Baby, every time (When I feel the need)
When I feel the need, I envision you
Over and, over and, over again
When I feel the need to relive the splendor of you and I (Whenever I feel the need I envision)
On the rooftop (Whenever I feel the need I envision)
Last night I had the strangest dream (You and I on that rainy night)
It was actually quite symbolic
It was, oh, so sweet
And I whispered that I loved you baby
Very subtly (Ahh)
