Mended is the sixth overall solo studio album and second English studio album by American Latin pop singer-songwriter Marc Anthony, released on May 21, 2002 by Columbia Records and Sony Discos. It was re-released with two bonus tracks in 2003 as Mended: Bonus Tracks.
After going through several release date changes, Marc Anthony released his second English studio album, Mended in mid-2002, shortly after issuing Libre. Mended delivers more of Anthony's passionate, urgent songs of love and betrayal, destined for mass consumption. The album features the hit singles "I've Got You", the Spanish version "Te Tengo Aqui", "Love Won't Get Any Better," as well as the well-known single "Tragedy." Bruce Springsteen composed a song, "I'll Stand By You Always", for Marc Anthony but the song was omitted from the album for unknown reasons.
The album was certified Platinum by the CRIA in October 2002 (100,000 units) and the single "I've Got You" was featured on the 2002 compilation album Now That's What I Call Music! 10.
Baby when I think about you
I don't need to think 'cause I just know
That baby it's the way you love me
That makes me so damn sure that your the one
Don't you know that I've waited for you
You are everything I've wanted all my life
Never thought I would find what I need
'Til you came along my dreams seemed so far away
[Chorus:]
I could be with another girl
And I can take a trip all around the world
But why would I go anywhere when I've got you
I could spend my money on fancy clothes
Meet a thousand women doing videos and shows
But baby I'm so glad that I got you
Maybe I just got lucky
'Cause a chance like this don't come along every day
And can we hold on to what we've got
If I ever lost you girl, my whole life would change
You should know that your life gives me strength
And without you I don't know where I would be
It's because of your soul I'm at ease
No matter where I am I'm not alone. eh
[Repeat Chorus]
All that I have
Is nothing when it compares to you
And I can't believe
How your love makes me feel
I'm glad that I've got you
And girl you've got me too
[Repeat Chorus]
