every once in a hile

i see a smile

it turns my day around



girl with those eyes

it can stare through the lines

and seewhat your heat was saying



think of aaliyah left

dont cry i know

she'd want it that way

when you think of aaliyah left

dont cry i know she'd want it that way



friend of a friend

friend 'til the end

thats the kind of girl she was

taken away so young

taken away without a warning



think of aaliyah left

dont cry i know

she'd want it that way

when you think of aaliyah left

dont cry i know she'd want it that way



i know you

and youre here

in everyday we live

i kno her

well she's her

i can feel her when she sings



aaliyah ,

where are you now

are you far away from here

i dont think so

i think youre here

taking our tears away

think of aaliyah left

dont cry i know

she'd want it that way

when you think of aaliyah left

dont cry i know she'd want it that way



i know she'd want it that way

i know she'd want it that way

i know she'd want it that way

i know she'd want it that way
