All the Befores Lyrics


Thought I could make it without you
Thought I could walk away
And never look backThought I had the secret
To stop these eyes from crying
Told myself he were no good
So what's the need in tryingBut as you see, here I am
Loving you stronger than ever
Promising to be better, getting into my head
I don't know how to be nothing but yoursI guess I should have learned
From all the beforesI wrote a nice long letter
Explaining my reasons for leaving
Hoping it would tear you apart
And leave you grievingI bet you didn't even read it
You're so familiar with the lines
You just glanced up at the clock
'Cause you knew the exact time I'd knockWithout pride, here I stand
Waiting for your forgiveness
This is where I belong

Come what may, this time I'll stay
You might as well lock all the doorsI guess I should have learned
From all the beforesPromising to be better
And getting into my head
I don't know how to be nothing but yoursI guess I should have learned
From all the befores

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Diana Ross (born Diane Ernestine Earle Ross on 26 March 1944 in Detroit, Michigan, USA) is an American soul, R&B and pop singer and actress. Ross is one of the most successful female artists of her era, both due to her solo work and her role as lead singer of The Supremes during the 1960s.

In 1959, Ross was brought to the attention of Milton Jenkins, the manager of the local doo-wop group The Primes, by Mary Wilson. Primes member Paul Williams convinced Jenkins to enlist Ross in the sister group The Primettes, which included Wilson, Florence Ballard and Betty McGlown.

In 1976, Billboard magazine named her the female entertainer of the century. In 1993, The Guinness Book Of World Records pronounced her the most successful female artist ever (the title is now attributed to Madonna), partly due to her combined total of eighteen number-one singles, six of them recorded solo and the remaining dozen from her work with the Supremes.

She was also one of the few pop singers to find modest success in the acting world winning an Academy Award nomination for her role as Billie Holiday in the 1972 film, "Lady Sings the Blues" as well as having hits with other film roles such as "Mahogany", "Out of Darkness" and "Double Platinum", not to mention her role in "The Wiz".

Ms. Ross has been awarded many lifetime achievement accolades from many organizations and media outlets, including BET, Soul Train, the NAACP Image Awards, the Kennedy Center Honors in 2007 and the Grammy Lifetime Achievement in 2011.

Her professional vocal collaborators have included the following during her career: Marvin Gaye, Lionel Richie, Rod Stewart, Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, Julio Iglesias, Jose Carreras, Placido Domingo, Westlife, and Smokey Robinson, among others.
