Tender was the night

Took an early flight

Rushing' home tonight

Somethin' wasn't right

I can't believe my eyes

I know I must be dreamin'

Did I come home too late, too soon

You in his arms told me the truth

Too late, too soon

I wish I would have known

I wouldn't have left you all alone

Temptation led you wrong

Tell me how long has this been going on

Cause I thought our love was strong

I guess I must be dreaming

Did I come home too late, too son

You in his arms told me the truth

Too late, too soon

What was I supposed to do

You had to see it for yourself

Cause I thought our love was strong

I guess I must be dreamin'

Repeat Chorus

It's not your body

It's all in your style

Your warm and gentle personality

Is so beautiful darlin'

Prayed for a perfect love then I met you

Sent as an angel to make my life new

God made the heavens and placed them above

But he left some here on earth

Heaven is you

You make me feel so good

Heaven is you

Every little thing you do

Hold me tight in your arms

Everything feels alright

And when you look into my eyes and say

I'm gonna love you till the day I die

I know that this is heaven

Ask me the question I can't tell a lie

Cause your love to me is pure and paradise

Take me right now I'm yours anytime

Cause you're my happiness

You're my heaven

From that first hello

Though you never asked for it

You took hold of my soul

And what you and I don't know

Destiny has brought

Inside our hearts and lives

And if there ever was a doubt

Not to believe

That some things are meant to be

Cause no matter how far

Or where you are

I feel you here

As close as my mind can see you

A vision of tenderness and love

For us to share

I thought I would regret it

Then I thought I could forget

The times we shared together

But I never thought I'd care for you baby

I never really thought it'd come to this

And if there ever was a doubt

Not to believe

That some things are meant to be

Cause no matter how far

Or where you are

I feel you here

As close as my mind can see you

A vision of tenderness and love

For us to share

I believe that we were meant to be

Sketches and edges of pictures so perfect

Haunt my memory

And girl I still weep

Cause I keep you within

I'm so sorry I let you go

Lovers forever a phrase I remember

Now seems so unkind

The world that I knew,

Is the world that is now

Somewhere lost in time, somewhere lost in time

(If I could find a way

Make you wanna stay)

Share my life with you

(I don't know how,

Guess I'll make it somehow, baby)

Maybe I'll get through

But what is it gonna take?

To get me over you

Tears mixed with fears

Contradictions arise

Ramble through my mind

That all the things that I've been looking for

I will never find, I will never find

(If I could find a way

Make you wanna stay)

Share my life with you

(I don't know how,

Guess I'll make it somehow, baby)

Maybe I'll get through

But what is it gonna take?

To get me over you

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, yeah, yeah

What is it gonna take, what is it gonna take?

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, yeah, yeah

What is it gonna take?

To get me over you

Repeat Chorus

Out of sight then out of mind

It's not as easy as I expected

Is the reality I find

And it's sad to hear it

And it's sad to talk about it

Cause baby I still need you

Feel the need to hold you

Baby I still care

It's enough to know

That I'm always gonna love you

All my life

And to let you go

It's enough to say goodbye

What I wanted, what I want

Are simply not the same things

But it's too late to turn back time

Still I want to tell you

That I'll always be right here for you

No matter where you go

No matter what you do

It's enough to know

That I'm always gonna love you

All my life

And to let you go

It's enough to say goodbye

Moments, comments

Then one thing that you said

Did it again

Turned our world upside down again

I surprised you

I surprised myself

Is this what we need

I don't wanna stop

(I can do this, I am ready I know I can do this)

I don't really wanna stop this

(I can love you like no other, I can)

Ready for love I feel fine

I feel just fine

Ready for love

Rebounded, founded

What I hope is missing in me

I'll admit this is new to me

Did I catch you at a bad time

Do I ask too much.

I don't wanna stop

(I can do this, I am ready I know I can do this)

I don't really wanna stop this

(I can love you like no other, I can)

Ready for love I feel fine

I feel just fine

Ready for love

I surprised you

I surprised myself

Is this what we need

I don't wanna stop

(I can do this, I am ready I know I can do this)

I don't really wanna stop this

(I can love you like no other, I can)

I feel fine (ready for love)

I feel just fine

(Ready for love)

The sunrise within

That leads to nowhere

Sometimes I feel that way

But my heart is filled

With you inside

When I feel your presence

In my mind

I live for you

Stay with me forever

Didn't meant to leave you waiting

And so you've heard

A vow of love becomes a promise

So here's my promise,

I'll always love you

Moments in time

With empty feelings

Seems there's nowhere I could hide

And then I found you to make me strong

Now I belong to you

I live for you

Stay with me forever

Didn't mean to leave you waiting

And so you've heard

A vow becomes a promise

So here's my promise

I'll always love you

Deep in my soul I had to choose

Well now you know the truth

I live for you

Stay with me forever

Didn't mean to leave you waiting

And so you've heard

A vow becomes a promise

So here's my promise

I'll always love you

Who will take care of me

When you are gone away

I will have nothing left

But your memory

And I wish that we could say

The things we want to say when we are far, so far

Away, dear

I don't want anything without you

Night comes, the night is here

My thoughts are clear now

But, who will take care of me

When you are gone away

You took away my fears

The tears are gone now

But who will take care of me

When you are gone away

Can you forgive me

Just take me back

I promise to be a man of honor

Is there still a chance

That we can find tomorrow

Forget the sorrow

Live for today

Cause yesterday's come and gone

Now I know better

I hope you can stand a little stormy weather.

Chorus

After all is said and done

Through all the heartache

Through all the fun

You are the only one

I'll ever love

And I'll work hard to make you see

There's still a chance girl if you believe

You are the only one I'll ever love

Don't walk away baby... please

I'm begging you

I'm down on my knees

I know I hurt you

But I know you know

I never will desert you baby

Different strokes for different folks

Your love means the most

Yes, I'm your man

Love you the best I can

Again and again and again

Repeat Chorus

I want to love you 'til forever comes

I want to give you everything under the sun

One day at a time

I'll share with you my life

And our forever ends the day we say goodbye

Cause forever is as long as it lasts

Don't wait 'til tomorrow let's enjoy today

The promise we made forever may just fade away

So one day at a time

Appreciate my love

And our forever ends if we should ever say goodbye

Cause forever is as long as it lasts

And no matter where you go

No matter what you do

The love we share right now will always be a part of you

Cause forever is as long as it lasts

I'm yours forever

(Forever is as long as it lasts)

(Never say never)

(Forever is as long as it lasts)

Let's stay together

(Forever is as long as it lasts)

It only gets better

As long as we can make it last

One day at a time

I'll share with you my life

And our forever ends the day we say goodbye

No matter where you go

No matter what we do

The love we share right now will always be a part of you

Cause forever is as long as it lasts

Tender was the night

Took an early flight

Rushing' home tonight

Somethin' wasn't right

I can't believe my eyes

I know I must be dreamin'

Did I come home too late, too soon

You in his arms told me the truth

Too late, too soon

I wish I would have known

I wouldn't have left you all alone

Temptation led you wrong

Tell me how long has this been going on

Cause I thought our love was strong

I guess I must be dreaming

Did I come home too late, too son

You in his arms told me the truth

Too late, too soon

What was I supposed to do

You had to see it for yourself

Cause I thought our love was strong

I guess I must be dreamin'

Repeat Chorus

Llegue sin avisar

No te quise despertar

Pero al entrar

Presenti algo en mi alma

No intentes explicar

Mis ojos no me enganan

Amandolo te vi, porque

Nunca sabras

Lo que 

Senti

Cuando te vi

Amandolo

A quien yo culpo ahora

Si te deje tan sola

Ese fue mi gran error

Hace cuanto tiempo que 

Te estoy perdiendo

Jure por nuestro amor

Crei que eras mas fuerte

Amandolo

Te vi,

Porque

Nunca sabras

Lo que

Senti

Cuando te vi

Amandolo, amandolo, baby

Dime que debo hacer

Y no lo pude creer

Verte asi con el

Jure por nuestro amor

Crei que eras mas fuerte

Amandolo

Te vi

Porque

Nunca sabras

Lo que 

Senti

Cuando te vi

Amandolo

* This is my idea about this album :

  Reason of changing his record label from EMI to Sony was this album. Advertisement for this album was very bad. There were only 2 singles for this album. "Too Late, Too Soon-Dance Remix" was only successful in dance charts, and "Believe" was released only in some Latin countries. Some CD shops gave "I will always remember" CD free for those who bought
"Secada".
Anyway songs were cool, he did some of his songs with Jimmy Jam (Janet Jackson's producers) and again with Diane Warren and Miguel Morejon.
"Too Late, Too Soon", "It's Enough", "Get Me Over You" are my favorites.

* An article from :

 Despite a couple of bland tracks and an overlong running time, Secada is a fine return to English-language adult-contemporary pop by Jon Secada. While the songs aren't always distinctive, Secada's voice is clear, pure and lovely, making even the weakest songs tolerable. Only a handful of songs are first-rate — including the single "Too Late, Too Soon" — but the record is pleasant and makes for fine background music.
