Alicia Keys - Tell You Something (Nana's Reprise)

Get so caught up everyday
Tryna keep it all together
While the time just slips away
See, I know nothing last forever

Imagine there was no tomorrow
Imagine that I couldn't see your face
There'd be no limit to my sorrow
So all I can say

I wanna tell you something, give you something
Show you in so many ways
'Cause it would all mean nothing
If I don't say something, before it all goes away
Don't wanna wait to bring you flowers
Waste another hour, let alone another day
I'm gonna tell you something, show you something
Won't wait 'til it's too late

(I can't wait, I can't wait, I won't wait, I don't wanna wait)
(I can't wait, I can't wait, I won't wait, I don't wanna wait)
Won't wait 'til it's too late

Just a simple conversation ('sation)
Just a moment is all it takes (yeah)
I wanna be there just to listen
(I wanna be here)
And I don't wanna hesitate (oh no)

Imagine there was no tomorrow (imagine)
Imagine that I couldn't see your face (your face)
There'd be no limit to my sorrow (oh no)
'Cause there is nothing that could fill that space
Oh, did I put it off for too long? (Too long)
I didn't say all that I had to say (say)
I wanna take the time and right the wrong before we get to that place (oh)

I wanna tell you something, give you something
Show you in so many ways
'Cause it would all mean nothing
If I don't say something, before it all goes away
Don't wanna wait to bring you flowers
Waste another hour, let alone another day
I'm gonna tell you something, show you something
Won't wait 'til it's too late

Just lean on my shoulder
It's not over 'til it's over
Don't worry 'bout it
'Cause I'm gonna make sure our bond gets stronger, yeah
I don't wanna wait until the storm
And something's wrong and now you're gone and I can't find you

I wanna tell you something, give you something
Show you in so many ways (so many ways)
'Cause it would all mean nothing
If I don't say something, before it all goes away (I don't wanna wait)
Don't wanna wait to bring you flowers (no)
Waste another hour, let alone another day
I'm gonna tell you something, show you something
Won't wait 'til it's too late

I wanna tell you something, give you something
Show you in so many ways
'Cause it would all mean nothing
If I don't say something, before it all goes away (goes away)
Don't wanna wait to bring you flowers
Waste another hour, let alone another day
I'm gonna tell you something, show you something
Won't wait 'til it's too late

I can't wait, I can't wait, I won't wait, I don't wanna wait
Won't wait 'til it's too late
I can't wait, I can't wait, I won't wait, I don't wanna wait
No oh, won't wait, no no
I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait, I don't wanna wait
I won't wait 'til it's too late
I can't wait, I can't wait, I won't wait, I don't wanna wait
No, no, no, no, no
No, no, I can't wait, I won't wait
No, no, I can't wait, I won't wait
