Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/300596
intro: mobb deep
(infamous, it don't stop)
Hmmm (ye, ye, infamous, knock em out the box, yo)
Ooh (i got you stuck off the realness)
Hmm (infamous, knock 'em out the box)
Uh, ooh (i got you stuck off the realness)
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 the dark

chorus: mariah carey
Every time i feel the need
I envision 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 (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 the box)
I got you stuck off the realness
Feel this pourin down on your buildings
The rain about to fall us
Score up in the project hall
Third floor gravitates on the staircase
As we embrace strictly loud without the raw bass
Me and my ol' dog blowin' out the smokes fog
But over all you, the one that's like my pistol, i said crystal
Keep you on my side 'til the ficial (yo, yo, yo, yo)

verse 4: havoc/big noyd
Ain't it ill how we click, boo? just me and you
Got me stuck off the realness, just me and you
Up on the roof beats, pebble beach
Talk to me anytime, even when i wit my peeps
Ruler l, why you smell like the perfume chanel?
Push big g's rappin' all is simply heavy
We can do it on a roof top
Do it 'til we both drop
M-o-b-b with mariah sounds so hot

chorus: mariah carey
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 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)
Every time i feel the need

Biography

edit bio
Mariah Carey, born on March 27, 1970, is a multi-talented American artist known for her powerful vocals, chart-topping hits, and impressive range. She began her career under the guidance of Columbia Records executive Tommy Mottola, releasing her self-titled debut album in 1990. The album was a massive success, going multi-platinum and producing four number one singles on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart.

After marrying Mottola in 1993, Carey continued to achieve success with hit records like “Emotions” (1991), “Music Box” (1993), and “Merry Christmas” (1994). Her album Daydream (1995) made music history with the record-breaking sixteen-week run of the single “One Sweet Day”, a duet with Boyz II Men. However, Carey's musical style began to shift towards hip hop with the release of Butterfly (1997), coinciding with her separation from Mottola.

In 2000, Carey left Columbia and signed a lucrative $100 million recording contract with Virgin Records. However, she faced personal struggles and a career setback after the release of her first feature film, Glitter (2001). Following the film's poor reception, Carey was bought out of her contract for $50 million. She then signed with Island Records in 2002 and made a successful comeback with The Emancipation of Mimi (2005), which included the hit single "We Belong Together."

In addition to her music career, Carey has also ventured into acting, receiving critical acclaim for her role in the film Precious (2009). She has been recognized with various awards and nominations for her performances, showcasing her versatility as a performer.

Throughout her career, Mariah Carey has proven to be a resilient and talented artist, continuously evolving and pushing boundaries in the music industry. With her powerhouse vocals and impressive discography, she has solidified her status as one of the best-selling music artists of all time.
