El rhythm and blues (abreviado por sus siglas R&B) o jumping music es un género musical derivado en su origen del jazz, el gospel y el blues. El término musical fue introducido en Estados Unidos en 1949 por Jerry Wexler de la revista Billboard. Sustituyó al término conocido como "race records" (grabaciones de raza), considerado ofensivo para la posguerra mundial así como para la categoría de Billboard "Harlem Hit Parade" en junio de 1949, y principalmente era usado para identificar el género musical que más tarde se desarrollaría en forma de rock and roll.
Toni Braxton (nacida como Toni Michelle Braxton el 7 de octubre de 1967) es una cantante de Soul y R&B y actriz estadounidense. Conocida por su grave voz de contralto, Braxton ha ganado siete premios Grammy a lo largo de toda su carrera.
Braxton comenzó su carrera cómo solista en 1993, publicando su homónimo álbum debut que alcanzó el número uno en la lista Billboard 200 de los discos más vendidos en Estados Unidos. El éxito continuó con su segundo álbum Secrets el cual contiene la canción Un-Break My Heart, balada que se convirtió en todo un éxito mundial y logró posicionar a Toni Braxton cómo una estrella internacional. En total se estima que el álbum Secrets alcanza los veinte millones de copias vendidas en todo el mundo.
Hello
Hello it's me again
You're still not home
Cause if you were
It's after 4 a.m.
I wouldn't be here alone
See, God give me the strength
And the
Courage I need
When my heart aches for you
I have to let it be
[Chorus:]
But it's OK
I Understand…
You've got to leave
I won't cry no more
Baby what for?
You don't shed a tear for me
See I was blind, but now I see
There's got to be, a better man for me, yeah
There's got to be, a better man for me
Hell no
Oh no not this again
I'll be counting down
Your bags are packed
And they're at the door
I've got to get used to not having you around
God gave me the strength
And the
Courage I need
To move forward with my life
I have to let it be…
[Chorus:]
But it's OK
I Understand…
You've got to leave
I won't cry no more
Baby what for?
You don't shed a tear for me
See I was blind, but now I see
There's got to be
Got to be
A better man
A better man
For me
There's got to be, a better man for me
Got to be a better man
Oooh, darlin'
Hear me now
God give me the strength
And the
Courage I need
Cause I know now, baby
There's got to be a better man for me
You've got to leave
Oooh yeah
You don't shed a tear for me
See I was blind, but now I see
There's got to be
Got to be a better plan
A better man for me, baby
One more time, yeah, ya'll
There's got to be, a better man for me
See I'm tired of your lying
And I'm tired of trying
You've got to leave
I don't cry no more
Baby what for?
You don't shed a tear for me
See I was blind, but now I see
There's got to be, a better plan for me.
Somewhere out there, baby
There's got to be, a better man for me
Oooh
Yeah
Got to be a better man
