As Long As You Love Me

Although loneliness has always been a friend of mine
I'm leavin' my life in your hands
People say I'm crazy and that I am blind
Risking it all in a glance
And how you got me blind is still a mystery
I can't get you out of my head
Don't care what is written in your history
As long as you're here with me

I don't care who you are
Where you're from
What you did
As long as you love me
Who you are
Where you're from
Don't care what you did
As long as you love me

Every little thing that you have said and done
Feels like it's deep within me
Doesn't really matter if you're on the run
It seems like we're meant to be

I don't care who you are (who you are)
Where you're from (where you're from)
What you did
As long as you love me (I don't know)
Who you are (who you are)
Where you're from (where you're from)
Don't care what you did
As long as you love me (yeah)
As long as you love me
As long as you love me

I've tried to hide it so that no one knows
But I guess it shows
When you look into my eyes
What you did and where you're comin' from
I don't care, as long as you love me, baby

I don't care who you are (who you are)
Where you're from (where you're from)
What you did
As long as you love me (as long as you love me)
Who you are (who you are)
Where you're from (where you're from)
Don't care what you did (yeah)
As long as you love me (as long as you love me)
Who you are (who you are)
Where you're from
What you did
As long as you love me
Who you are (who you are)
Where you're from (where you're from)
As long as you love me
Who you are
As long as you love me
What you did (I don't care)
As long as you love me

All I Have To Give

I don't know what he does to make you cry
But I'll be there to make you smile
I don't have a fancy car
To get to you I'd walk a thousand miles
I don't care if he buys you nice things
Does his gifts come from the heart?
I don't know
But if you were my girl
I'd make it so we'd never be apart

[Chorus:]
But my love is all I have to give
Without you I don't think I could live
I wish I could give the world to you
But love is all I have to give

When you talk (when you talk) does it seem like he's not
Even listening to a word you say?
That's okay babe, just tell me your problems
I'll try my best to kiss them all away
Does he leave (does he leave) when you need him the most?
Does his friends get all your time?
Baby please
I'm on my knees
Praying for the day that you'll be mine

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
To you... (hey girl) hey girl, I don't want you to cry no more inside
All the money in the world could never add up to all the love
I have inside... I love you

And I will give it to you
All I can give, all I can give
Everything I have is for you
But love is all I have to give

[Chorus (3x)]

But my love is all I have to give
Without you I don't think I can live
I wish I could give the world to you
But love is all I have to give... to you

For all the things you do

10000 Promises

Once we were lovers
Just lovers we were oh what a lie
Once we were dreamers
Just dreamers we were oh you and I
Now I see you're just somebody
Who wastes all my time and money
What a lie
You and I

What about your
Your 10,000 promises?
That you gave to me
Your 10,000 promises
That you promised me

Once I could handle the truth
When the truth was you and I
But time after time all the promises
Turned out to be all lies
And now, now I see that you're somebody
Who wasted my time and money
What lie, oh what a lie (what a lie)
Oh you, you and I, oh you and I

What about your
Your 10,000 promises?
That you gave to me (to me, babe)
Your 10,000 promises
That you promised me

You say I'll take you back
But I close the door
'Cause I don't want 10,000 more

10,000 promises yeah
10,000 promises you gave to me

What about your
Your 10,000 promises?
That you gave to me
Your 10,000 promises
That you promised me
(what about your)
Your 10,000 promises (10,000 promises you gave to me)
That you gave to me (what about your)
Your 10,000 promises
(what about your 10,000 promises you gave to me?)

Once we were lovers
Just lovers we were
You and I
What a lie

Like A Child

If I could right the wrongs that made you cry
Girl, would you promise not to say goodbye, oh
Cuz I'm holding on
With a love so strong
And I can't take the day without you by my side

Girl if I could change
If I could change your mind
Maybe you could help me wipe these tears from my eyes

Girl don't stop (don't stop)
The sun from shining down on me (ooh shining down on me, yeah)
Cuz I can't face another day without your smile (your smile)
And if you take away the loving arms that surround me
Then I might break down and cry just like a child

Girl I can't belong and I won't be free
If I fail to bring your lovin' back to me (oh back to me)
So I'm pressin' on
I hope you understand
That there's a broken heart that lies within your hands

So if I can change (so if I can change)
And it won't hurt your pride (it won't your pride)
Baby you can help stop these tears from my cries

Girl don't stop
The sun from shining down on me (shining down on me)
Cuz I can't face another day without your smile (your pretty smile, your pretty smile)
And if you take away the loving arms that surround me
Then I might break down and cry just like a child

Like a child
Just like a child
With the spirits running free
She trapped me wild
Oh she did
Like a child (oh baby)
Just like a child Think of what our love could be
If our hearts could set us free
Like a child, yeah

Hey, Mr. DJ (Keep Playin' This Song)

One time here we go (yes, yes one time, yes, yes)

I could tell when I stepped in the room
And I saw you standing there
Caught in a vibe by the way that you moved
I couldn't help the way I stared
There was some mysterious force
Leading me here to you
Lead me to you (lead me to you)

So I stood there watching
And I was hypnotized
By the rhythm of your body
And the music in your eyes
And I was lost inside your world with you

Hey Mr. DJ keep playin' this song for me
Out on the floor in my arms she's gotta be
Let's get it on (let's get it on)
Jam all night long
Mr. DJ, Mr. DJ
Play it play it for me

Now it feels like it could be romance
As we dance across the floor
Every move that your body makes
Only makes me want you more
And it seems like time's moving fast
How can we make it last?
Make it last now (make it last some how)

As we keep on dancing
I am hypnotized
By the rhythm of your body
And the music in your eyes
I was lost inside your world with you (with you)

Hey Mr. DJ keep playin' this song for me
Out on the floor in my arms she's gotta be
Let's get it on (let's get it on)
Jam all night long
Mr. DJ, Mr. DJ
Play it play it for me

Close your eyes (close your eyes)
And imagine us alone (Just imagine)
Let the music put you in a zone (let the music put you in a zone, a zone yeah)
I get lost (I get lost)
Lost inside a groove with you (Lost inside a groove)
When you do the dance you do
Come on and work your body, work your body

Hey, Mr. DJ
Jam all night long
Hey, Mr. DJ
Play that song for me
Hey, Mr. DJ
Jam all night long
Hey, Mr. DJ
Play that song for me

Hey Mr. DJ keep playin' this song for me
Out on the floor in my arms she's gotta be
Let's get it on (let's get it on)
Jam all night long
Mr. DJ, Mr. DJ
Play it play it for me

Hey Mr. DJ keep playin' this song for me
Out on the floor in my arms she's gotta be
Let's get it on (let's get it on)
Jam all night long
Mr. DJ, Mr. DJ
Play it play it for me

Keep it comin' Mr. DJ
Oh
Keep it comin' Mr. DJ
Oh
Keep it comin' Mr. DJ
Oh
Keep it comin' Mr. DJ

Set Adrift On Memory Bliss

Dadadadadada Dadadadadada Dadadadadada dadadadada
(On memory's bliss of you)
Dadadadadada Dadadadadada Dadadadadada (oh) dadadadada

The candle plays the hourglass
The days go and all I do is
Think of you and wonder where you are at night
Oh I remember everything
Every smile, and even all
The reasons why you say
I pushed you out of my life

[Chorus:]
Baby you set me... (Hahahahaha)
Baby you set me... (Dadadadadada)
Set adrift on memory's bliss of you (dadadadada)
Baby you set me... (Hahahahaha Dadadadadada)
Set adrift on memory's bliss of you (dadadadada)

Destiny is everything
Reality's replaced you with
The biggest empty void I've ever had in life (ever had in life) ohh
Bet you say that I don't care
I bet you say that I don't even think of you
But God knows how wrong you are

Baby will you be there when the morning comes?
(Baby will you be there?)
Just give me time (just give me time)
To fix my life (to fix my life, baby)
Baby will you be there when I open my eyes?
After all the time I've spent, wishing you

[Chorus]

Sadness that overwhelmed me
My mind flies and carelessly
Imagines that you're happy with your life right now oh
I guess that's just the was it goes
Forever's gone so now I must
Place you with all the things that I can never have

[Chorus]

So come on now (Hahahahaha)
I know this much is true (Dadadadadada)
I know this much is true (dadadadada Hahahahaha)

Thats What She Said

There are people who say what you want to hear
Even on a rainy day they'll tell you the sky is clear
When you really, really love someone
And I'm right when I say that you want them near
And if you can't even tell
Them things that they want to hear

[Chorus]
Always forever, all the things she said
Never say never, those simple lies that she fed
I will never leave you
All the love I thought she had
But can you blame me, no,
'Cause that's what she said
That's what she said
She told me we'd see forever
That's what she said, she said, yeah

And,
There are people who that say what they really mean
She said she'd always be there
She said she'd always care
But just when you think that you can trust that someone ya love
Tell me why do you know
How stars can fall from above

[Chorus]

'Cause you made promises that you couldn't keep
But you're not hurting' yourself
But you're only hurting me (you're only hurting me)
Why would you say things that you really didn't mean
Oh how can I make you see just-a what you did to me

Oh, you said how much you really cared
Just when I thought I was in love
Girl, how could you dare
If I were you I wouldn't lie not even-a once
To the face of the one that I love so much

[Chorus]

Oh that's what she said

If I Dont Have You

Everyday, girl, I wake up and pray
That you'll come back home
And don't take too long
Cuz since you've been gone
Everything's gone a bit wrong
I wish you were here
Holding me near

You know I'd go out of my mind
If you ever left my heart behind
So I'm beggin' you please (so I'm beggin', beggin' you please)
Bring you sweet love back to me (Please come back to me)

[Chorus:]
If I don't have you (don't have you)
To hold on to (to hold on to)
I can't go on in this world alone
Baby it's true (baby it's true if I don't have you) If you say goodbye (you say goodbye)
Girl I would die (girl I would die)
I'm a star with no light
A day with no night
If I don't have you

Late at night I reach to hold you tight
But you're not there (you're just not there baby)
I know you still care (I know you still care)
And oh how I miss your soft, tender, lovely kiss
You'd give to me (to me)
So tenderly

We used to feel
That time would stand still
When I see you baby it will
So hurry home (so hurry, come home to me)
You know your man needs you so (oh girl you just don't know)

[Chorus]

If I don't have you (don't have you)
If I don't have you I don't know what I'd do
To hold on to (to hold on to)
I just wanna hold you
I can't go on (can't go on)
In this world alone
Baby it's true (baby it's true if I don't have you)
If you say goodbye (you say goodbye)
If you say goodbye I would die
Oh I would die (girl I would die)
I would die if I don't have you
I'm a star with no light (no light, whoa!)
A day with no night
If I don't have you
You know I'd go crazy without you (don't have you)
If I don't have you I don't know what I'd do
To hold on to (to hold on to)
I just wanna hold you
I can't go on (can't go on)
In this world alone (in this world alone)
Baby it's true (baby it's true if i don't have you)
If you say goodbye (you say goodbye)
If you say goodbye I would die
Oh I would die (girl I would die)

Backstreet's Back is the second studio album by American boy band Backstreet Boys, released internationally on August 11, 1997, by Jive Records and Trans Continental Records, with the exception of United States. It serves as a follow-up to their successful self-titled debut album, which came out a year prior. A day after its release, a United States-exclusive reissue of their debut was released with a revised track list and additional songs from Backstreet's Back.

The first track recorded for the album was a cover of "Set Adrift on Memory Bliss". The tracks "If You Stay" and "Who Do You Love" were recorded for the album but were ultimately not included; the latter was performed live but never released as a studio track. The three singles released from Backstreet's Back: "Everybody (Backstreet's Back)", "As Long as You Love Me", and "All I Have to Give" became three of their most successful singles.
Performed By: Backstreet Boys
