The Roof (Back In Time) (K.C.’s Human Rhythm 12” Extended Remix)

[Intro: Sample]

I got you stuck off the realness

I got you stuck off the realness

[Verse 1: Mariah Carey]

It wasn't raining yet

(Yet)

But it was definitely a little misty on

(But it was definitely)

That warm November night

And my heart was pounding

(Pounding)

My inner voice resounding

Begging me to turn away

But I just had to see your face

To feel alive

And then you casually walked in the room

And I was twisted in the web

Of my desire for you

(And I was twisted)

My apprehension blew away

I only wanted you

To taste my sadness

As you kissed me in the dark

[Chorus: Mariah Carey]

Every time I feel the need (and every time)

I envision you caressing me

And go back in time (back in time)

(I go back, I go back, I go back)

To relive the splendor of you and I

On the rooftop that rainy night

[Verse 2: Mariah Carey]

And so we finished the Moët and

I started feeling liberated

And I surrendered as you took me in your arms

(You took me in your arms)

I was so caught up in the moment

I couldn't bear to let you go yet (so I)

So I threw caution to the wind

And started listening to my longing heart

And then you softly pressed your lips to mine

And feelings surfaced I'd suppressed

For such a long long time

(And I was lifted)

And for a while I forgot

The sorrow and the pain

And melted with you as we stood

There in the rain

[Chorus: Mariah Carey]

Every time I feel the need (and every time)

I envision you caressing me

(Envision you, caressing me)

And go back in time (back in time)

(Back)

To relive the splendor of you and I (you and I, you and I)

On the rooftop that rainy night

[Chorus: Mariah Carey]

(Every time)

Every time I feel the need (and every time)

I envision you caressing me

(Envision you)

And go back in time (back in time)

To relive the splendor of you and I (you...)

On the rooftop that rainy night

[Bridge: Mariah Carey]

Last night I dreamed that I

(Last night I... dreamed that I...)

Whispered the words I love you

(That I love you boy...)

And touched you so very (touched)

Subtly as we were kissing goodbye

(Kiss... kiss... bye...)

(Pretty baby - How I'm missing you)

[Chorus: Mariah Carey]

(Every time I...)

Every time I feel the need (and every time)

I envision you caressing me

(Envision you, caressing me)

And go back in time (back in time)

To relive the splendor of you and I (I go back)

On the rooftop that rainy night

(On the roof that rainy night)

[Chorus: Mariah Carey]

Every time I feel the need (and every time)

(When I feel the need, I envision you)

I envision you caressing me

(Over and over and over again)

And go back in time (back in time)

To relive the splendor of you and I

(It was oh so sweet, you and I)

On the rooftop that rainy night

(On that rainy night)

[Chorus: Mariah Carey]

Every time I feel the need (and every time)

(Last night I had the strangest dream...)

I envision you caressing me

(It was actually quite symbolic)

And go back in time (back in time)

(As I whispered... That I loved you)

To relive the splendor of you and I

(...very subtly)

On the rooftop that rainy night

[Chorus: Mariah Carey]

Every time I feel the need (and every time)

I envision you caressing me

And go back in time (back in time)

To relive the splendor of you and I

On the rooftop that rainy night
