Boyz II Men is an American R&B vocal group, best known for emotional ballads and a cappella harmonies. Formerly a quartet featuring Michael McCary, they are currently a trio composed of baritone Nathan Morris alongside tenors Wanya Morris and Shawn Stockman. During the 1990s, Boyz II Men found fame on Motown Records as a quartet. McCary left the group in 2003 due to health issues.
During the 1990s, Boyz II Men gained international success. This began with the release of the number one single "End of the Road" in 1992, which reached the top of charts worldwide. "End of the Road" would set a new record for longevity, staying at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 for thirteen weeks, breaking the decades-old record held by Elvis Presley. Boyz II Men proceeded to break this record with the subsequent releases of "I'll Make Love to You" and "One Sweet Day" (with Mariah Carey), which, at fourteen and sixteen weeks respectively, each set new records for the total number of weeks at number one. "I'll Make Love to You" also topped the charts in Australia (for four weeks) and garnered international success. As of 2015, "One Sweet Day" still holds the all-time record with sixteen weeks at the top of the Hot 100.
Here I am again, wondering if you're okay
Can't stop this troubled heart
Cuz we're apart, miles away
Phone pressed up to my ear
Wish you were here, holding me
A face to go with your sweet voice
Will bring me joy, totally
I know I can't be there
But baby it's alright
I'll be waiting for you, tonight
I pray that you'll be there
When I close my eyes
Meet me in my dreams, tonight
One thing that never changes
No matter what
I can't wait to see you
Can't wait to feel you
And there's a place of our own, where we can go
Nobody knows
I close my eyes real tight
And make love to you all night
I know I can't be there
Baby it's alright
I'll be waiting for you, tonight
I pray that you'll be there
When I close my eyes
Meet me in my dreams, tonight
I wish I may, I wish you might
Find some time when you sleep tonight
To think of me and I'll appear before your eyes
It's my paradise, your world
You are my heart, my life, my girl
Oh, can't wait to go to sleep
Cuz there's a possibility, you'll meet me
Ohh, oh oh oh oh
Ohh yeah, oh yeah
I know...
I know I can't be there
Baby it's alright
I'll be waiting for you, tonight
I pray that you'll be there
When I close my eyes
Meet me in my dreams, tonight
I know I can't be there
Baby it's alright
I'll be waiting for you, tonight
I pray that you'll be there
When I close my eyes
