Dreamgirls: Music From The Motion Picture soundtrack lyrics -- When I First Saw You .. Jamie Foxx


When I first saw you, I said, oh my
I said, oh my, that's a dream, that's a dream
I needed a dream, when all seemed to go bad
Then I found you
And I have had the most beautiful dreams any man has ever had
When I first saw you, I said, oh my
I said, oh my, that's my dream, that's my dream
I needed a dream to make me strong
You were the only reason I've had to go on
You're my dream, all the things I ever knew
You're my dream, who could believe it could ever come true
And who could believe the world would believe in my dreams too

There comes a time when a child's got to grow
There comes a time when the woman's got to go
Mama said I am special
She said I've got to go
I'm just as good
I'm even better than
That's what you would say
Shall I need to say
Shall I need to say
I'm not gonna say

You're my dream (Now I've got dreams of my own)
All the things I could ever be (Dreams you never know)
You're my dream
They'll never take my dream from me

When I first saw you, I said, oh my, oh my
That's my dream


Dreamgirls: Music From The Motion Picture soundtrack lyrics -- Patience .. Eddie Murphy, Keith Robinson, Anika Noni Rose


Listen
I know you have questions, same ones as me
How long has it been?
How long will it be?
When will come the morning to drive the night away
Tell me when will come the morning of a brighter day
Yeah
Ooh, patience, little sisters
Patience, little brothers
Patience, patience, yeah
Take each other by the hand, yeah
Ooh, patience, little sisters
Patience, little brothers
Let us walk together to the promised land, yeah

There's a river to cross
And a mountain to climb
Patience, patience, oh
It's gonna take some time, yeah
We must walk in peace (we got to walk in peace)
It's the only, only way
If we wanna see that morning, yeah, of a brighter day
Patience, little sisters
Patience, little brothers
Patience, patience, yeah
We're gonna find a way
Patience, little sisters
Until the morning of a brighter day, yeah
Oh, patience
Till a brighter day
Yeah yeah yeah
Till a brighter day
Come on now (come on)
Sing in patience, yeah
Gotta have some patience
Patience, patience


Dreamgirls: Music From The Motion Picture soundtrack lyrics -- I Am Changing .. Jennifer Hudson


Effie:
Look at me, Look at me
I am changing
Trying every way I can
I am changing
I'll be better than I am
I'm trying to find a way to understand
But I need you, I need you
I need a hand
I am changing
Seeing everything so clear
I am changing
I'm gonna start right now, right here
I'm hoping to work it out
And I know that I can
But I need you, I need a hand

All of my life I've been a fool
Who said I can do it on my own
How many good friends have I already lost?
How many dog nights have I known?
Walking down that wrong road
There was nothing I could find
All those years of darkness
Looking for some light
But now I can see

I am changing
Trying every way I can
I am changing
I'll be better than I am
But I need a friend
To help me start all over again
That would be just fine
I know it's gonna work out this time
'Cause this time I am
This time I am
I am changing
I'll get my life together now
I am changing
Yes I know how
I'm gonna start again
I'm gonna leave my past behind
I'll change my life
I'll make a vow and nothings gonna stop me now


Dreamgirls: Music From The Motion Picture soundtrack lyrics -- Perfect World .. Steve Russell


(Narrator) Tonight Live from the Northeast Chandler Pavillion in Los Angeles California,
Its the sound of tomorrow celebrating 10 years of hits from rainbow records

Everyday at school girl I see your smiling face. The teacher tries to call on me but I cant concentrate.

Im to busy thinking all about your face. I know I'm in love with you but you don't even know my name.

CHORUS:
Girl meets boy. Boy meets girl.
They could fall in love in a perfect world but if boy and girl never meet than a perfect world could never be.

Come on girl. I love ya.

Every night I pray girl that you would notice me. I got a secret crush on you but we dont even speak.

I don't know my status or if 2 plus 2 is 5. But I know im in love with you and you dont even know Im alive

Chorus:
Girl meets boy. Boy meets girl.
They could fall in love in a perfect world but if boy and girl never meet than a perfect world could never be.

Hey come on. I love ya girl. Come on Girl

And though its hard for me to show it
I have to let you know it
Cuz darling I love you more each day
But the words got in my way
Oh I meant you no harm
And I would die
If you ever said goodbye
I love you, I love you
I meant you no harm
I never never meant to make you cry
You are the only one I'll ever love in my life

Jimmy want a rib, jimmy want a steak, jimmy want a piece of your chocolate cake
And more than all that Jimmy want a raise, cuz

Sooner or later
The time comes around
For a man to be a man to take back his sound
I gotta do something to shake things up
I like Johnny Mathis but I cant do that stuff

Cuz Jimmy got, jimmy got, jimmy got SOUL

Dreamgirls: Music From The Motion Picture soundtrack lyrics -- Effie, Sing My Song .. Jennifer Hudson, Keith Robinson


Effie, it's been all these years
You haven't even said hello
I'm your brother, Effie
Say "hello"
Come on, Effie, you know I'm sorry
I should have come today
Hold me, is all I have to say

You've always been the baby
But I'm trying to change
And so am I
It's taken all these years to be free
Of loving that man (finding myself)
And getting a hold of the anger in me
Effie, I have a song
And only you can sing it the way it should be
I waited so long to hear you say that to me
Say it again, say it again
Effie, sing my song the way it should be


Dreamgirls: Music From The Motion Picture soundtrack lyrics -- One Night Only .. Jennifer Hudson


Effie:
You want all my love and my devotion
You want my loving soul right on the line
I have no doubt that I could love you forever
The only trouble is, you really don't have the time
You've got one night only, one night only
That's all you have to spare
One night only, let's not pretend to care
One night only, one night only
Come on big baby come on
One night only, we only have 'til dawn
In the morning this feeling will be gone
It has no chance going on
Something so right has got no chance to live
So let's forget about chances, this one night I will give

Dreamgirls: Music From The Motion Picture soundtrack lyrics -- Listen .. Beyonce Knowles


Listen,
To the song here in my heart
A melody I've start
But can't complete

Listen, to the sound from deep within
It's only beginning
To find release

Oh,
the time has come
for my dreams to be heard
They will not be pushed aside and turned
Into your own
all cause you won't
Listen....

[Chorus]
Listen,
I am alone at a crossroads
I'm not at home, in my own home
And I tried and tried
To say whats on my mind
You should have known
Oh,
Now I'm done believin you
You don't know what I'm feelin
I'm more than what, you made of me
I followed the voice
you gave to me
But now I gotta find, my own..

You should have listened
There is someone here inside
Someone I'd thought had died
Sooo long ago

Ohh I'm free now and my dreams to be heard
They will not be pushed aside on words
Into your arms
All cause you won't
Listen...

[Chorus]

I don't know where I belong
But i'll be movin on
If you don't....
If you won't....

LISTEN!!!...
To the song here in my heart
A melody I've start
But I will complete

Oh,
Now i'm done believin you
You dont know what I'm feelin
I'm more than what, you made of me
I followed the voice, you think you gave to me
But now I gotta find, my own..
my ownn...


Dreamgirls: Music From The Motion Picture soundtrack lyrics -- Hard To Say Goodbye .. Beyonce Knowles, Sharon Leal, Anika


Ladies and gentlemen, in their farewell performance, the incredible Dreams

We didn't make forever.
We each got to go our separate way,
And now we're standing here, helpless,
Looking for something to say.
We've been together a long time.
We never thought it would end.
We were always so close to each other;
You were always my friend.

And it's hard to say good-bye, my love.
Hard to see you cry, my love.
Hard to open up that door.
You're not sure what you're going for.

I didn't want this to happen,
But we shouldn't feel sad.
We had a good life together.
Just remember, remember, all the times we had.
It's not that I don't love you deeply
You were my family
It's just that I'm feeling there's so much more
Waiting out there for you and me.

And it's hard to say good-bye, my love.
Hard to see you cry, my love.
Hard to open up that door.
You're not sure what you're going for.

You'll know I'll always love you.
You'll know I'll always care.
And no matter how far I may go,
In my thoughts,
You'll always be there.

(It's so hard) hard to say good-bye, my love.
(Baby, it's hard) hard to see you cry, my love.
(It's hard) hard to open up that door,
When you're not sure what you're going for.

(It's so hard.)
Good-bye my love.
(Baby, it's so hard.)
We didn't make forever.
It's so hard.
I can feel there's something more.
(When you're not sure what you're going for.)
We've got to work it,
We've got to try,
Though it's hard, so hard
We have to say good-bye
Though it's hard, so hard
We have to say
We didn't make forever.
How could we loose tomorrow?
We didn't make forever.
How could we loose tomorrow?


Dreamgirls: Music From The Motion Picture soundtrack lyrics -- Dreamgirls (Finale) .. Jennifer Hudson, Beyonce Knowles,


Effie:
Every man has his own special dream,
And that dream's just about to come true.
Life's not as bad it may seem,
If you open your eyes to what's in front of you.

The Dreams:
We're your Dreamgirls, boys,
We'll make you happy.
We're your Dreamgirls, boys,
We'll always care.
We're your Dreamgirls,
Dreamgirls will never leave you.

Effie (Dreams)
And all you got to do is Dream (All you got to do is Dream)
All you got to do is Dream (Just dream and baby)

Dreams:
Just Dream and baby we'll be there,
We'll be there,
We'll be there.
We'll be......there.

Dreamgirls: Music From The Motion Picture soundtrack lyrics -- Family (End Title) .. Jamie Foxx, Jennifer Hudson, Beyonce


What about what I need? (Curtis says it's the best thing for the group)
What about what's best for me? (He feels the Dreams can cross over)
What about how I feel? (But when we're famous, I'll write great things for you. Effie, do it for me)
What about me? What about me?

It's more than you
It is more than me
No matter what we are
We are a family
This dream is for all of us
This one can be real
And you can't stop us now
Because of how you feel
It's more than you
It is more than me
Whatever dreams we have
They're for the family
We're not alone anymore
Now there are others there
And that dream's big enough for all of us to share
So don't think you're going you're not going anywhere
You're staying and taking your share
And if you get afraid again
I'll be there

We're a family
Like a giant tree
Branching out toward the sky
We're a family
We're so much more than just you and I
We're a family
Like a giant tree
Going stronger going wiser
We're going free
We need you
We're a family


Dreamgirls: Music From The Motion Picture soundtrack lyrics -- When I First Saw You (Duet) .. Jamie Foxx, Beyonce Knowles


When I first saw you, I said, oh my
I said, oh my, that's a dream, that's a dream
I needed a dream, when all seemed to go bad
Then I found you
And I have had the most beautiful dreams any man has ever had
When I first saw you, I said, oh my
I said, oh my, that's my dream, that's my dream
I needed a dream to make me strong
You were the only reason I've had to go on
You're my dream, all the things I ever knew
You're my dream, who could believe it could ever come true
And who could believe the world would believe in my dreams too

There comes a time when a child's got to grow
There comes a time when the woman's got to go
Mama said I am special
She said I've got to go
I'm just as good
I'm even better than
That's what you would say
Shall I need to say
Shall I need to say
I'm not gonna say

You're my dream (Now I've got dreams of my own)
All the things I could ever be (Dreams you never know)
You're my dream
They'll never take my dream from me

When I first saw you, I said, oh my, oh my
That's my dream

Dreamgirls: Music From The Motion Picture soundtrack lyrics -- And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going (Dance Mix) .. Jennifer


[Effie]
And I am telling you
I'm not going
You're the best man I'll ever know
There's no way I can ever go
No, no, there's no way
No, no, no, no way I'm living without you
I'm not living without you
I don't wanna be free
I'm staying

And you, and you
You're gonna love me, oohh ooh mm mm
You're gonna love me

And I am telling you
I'm not going
Even though the rough times are showing
There's just no way, there's no way
We're part of the same place
We're part of the same time
We both share the same blood
We both have the same mind
And time and time, we've had so much to see and
No, no, no, no, no, no
I'm not waking up tomorrow morning and finding that there's nobody there

And I mean there's no way
No, no, no, no way I'm living without you
I'm not living without you
You see there's just no way, there's no way

Tear down the mountains
Yell, scream, and shout like you can say what you want
I'm not walking out
Stop all the rivers, push, strike, and kill
I'm not gonna leave you
There's no way I will

And I am telling you
I'm not going
You're the best man I'll ever know
There's no way I can ever, ever go
No, no, no, no way
No, no, no, no way I'm living without you
Oh, I'm not living without you, not living without you
I don't wanna be free
I'm staying, I'm staying
And you, and you, and you
You're gonna love me

You're gonna love me, yes you are

Love me, love me, love me, love me

You're gonna love me
