The aaliyah song

Ho...oh...oh...oh...yeah...
oh...oh...oh...
mmm...mmm...

every once in awhile i see her smile
it turns my day around
girl, with those eyes can stare through the lies
and see what your heart was sayin'

think of aaliyah, laugh, don't cry
i know she'd want it that way, hey...
when you think of aaliyah, laugh, don't cry
i know she'd want it that way

ooh, friend of a friend, a friend till the end
that's the kind of girl she was
taken away so young, taken away
without a warning, oh

think of aaliyah, laugh, don't cry
i know she'd want it that way, hey...
when you think of aaliyah, laugh, don't cry
i know she'd want it that way

whoa...ho...i know you and you're here
in every day we live
i know her and she's near
i can feel her when she sings


aaliyah, where are you now
are you far away from here
i don't think so, i think you're here, yeah
takin' our tears away

think of aaliyah, laugh, don't cry
i know she'd want it that way, hey...
when you think of aaliyah, laugh, don't cry
i know she'd want it that way

well, i know she'd want it that
aaliyah, aaliyah
well, i know she'd want it that way
aaliyah, aaliyah
now i know she'd want it that way
aaliyah
