Ooooooaaahh, ooohh yea
Oooooh, aaliyah
Every once in awhile
I see her smile
It turns my day around

Girl with those eyes
Could stare through the lies
And see what your heart was saying

CHORUS:
Think of Aaliyah
Laugh, don´t cry
I know
She´d want it that way
Hey yea
When ya think of Aaliyah
Laugh, don´t cry
I know
She´d want it that way

Ooooooh
Friend of a friend
Friend ´til the end

That´s the kind of girl she was

Taken away
So young
Taken away
Without a warning, oh

CHORUS:
(Think of Aaliyah, oooh)
Laugh, don´t cry
(I know)
She´d want it that way
(Hey yeah)

(When ya´) think of Aaliyah, (oooh)
Laugh , don´t cry
(I know)
She´d want it that way

Whoa
I know you, (I know )
And your here, (and your here)
In every day we live, (day that we live, day we live)
I know her, (I know her)
And she´s here, (and I know that she´s still here)
I can feel her when she sings, (ooohhh)

2ND CHORUS:
Aaliyah, (Aaliyah)
Where are you now
(Are you far away from here)
(Far away), far away
I don´t think so,(I tell you I don´t think so)
I think your here

Yea
Taking our tears away,
[Shawn] Taking our tears (away)
