It's undeniable that we should be together It's unbelievable how I used to say that I'd fall never The basis is need to know if you don't know just how I feel Then let me show you now that I'm for real If all things in time time will reveal Yeah... One - you're like a dream come true Two - just wanna be with you Three - Girl its plain to see that you're the only one for me Four - repeat steps one through three Five - make you fall in love with me If ever I believe my work is done then I'll start back at one... So Incredible the way things work themselves out And all emotional once you know that its all about, hey And undesirable for us to be apart Never would of made it very far Cause you know you got the keys to my heart One - you're like a dream come true Two - just wanna be with you Three - Girl its plain to see that you're the only one for me Four - repeat steps one through three Five - make you fall in love with me If ever I believe my work is done then I'll start back at one... Say farewell to the dark of night I see the coming of the sun I feel like a little child whose life has just begun You came and breathed new life Into this lonely heart of mine You threw out the life line just in the nick of time... One - you're like a dream come true Two - just wanna be with you Three - Girl its plain to see that you're the only one for me Four - repeat steps one through three Five - make you fall in love with me If ever I believe my work is done then I'll start back at one...
Brian McKnight出生于1969年6月5日,美国纽约市。他成长于一个音乐世家,全家都是当地教堂唱诗班的成员。他的祖父是指挥。在这种宗教信仰的熏陶下,McKnight还从中了解到了其他音乐知识。 在他很小的时候就开始尝试着写一些简单的曲子(软爵士,简单好听的那种)。很快,他组织了自己的乐队并且在本地开始演出。18岁的时候,McKnight获得了出唱片的机会。他加入了有他哥哥Claude在内的Take 6乐团,并和一家唱片公司签定了合同。
在推出了相当数量的DEMO之后,McKnight吸引了Mercury Records 总裁Ed Eckstine 的目光。Eckstine很欣赏McKnight的嗓音,并且在两个礼拜之内月他签定了合同。McKnight第一次在公司旗下推出了The Way Love Goes",在公告牌节奏布鲁斯排行榜上停留了19个礼拜并达到了第十一名的成绩。不过他后来的两支单曲都未能突破公告牌节奏布鲁斯排行榜60名以内。其中一首名为"Love Is"的歌,是与黑人女歌星Vanessa Williams 合作的,不过讽刺的是,这首歌曲虽然在节奏布鲁斯榜上无名,但在流行榜上却爬到了第三的位置。但不管怎么样,还是为McKnight争取到了一些歌迷。
他的第二张专辑《I Remember You》卖了5万张左右,其中有5首单曲都进了公告牌节奏布鲁斯榜前20。这时McKnight的名声已经确立了,这时,公司决定停止一切工作把精力都放在他的第三张专辑《Anytime》上面。首个单曲"You Should Be Mine (Don't Waste Your Time)"推出,在全美音乐排行榜上到了17名位置,这首歌是由说唱歌手MA与他合作的,试图将HIP HOP歌迷尽可能的拉到McKnight的拥护者中。不管怎样,这首歌曲已经代表了这张专辑会是十分成熟的节奏布鲁斯以及浪漫情歌的组合。专辑登上了全美销售榜的20名以内。然后McKnight转投到著名黑人音乐唱片Motown Records,并推出了圣诞专辑《 Bethlehem》。 随后在1999年推出了大受欢迎的《Back at One》,这张专辑只用了几周时间就爬上了全美销售榜第二的位置。
