Troy Johnson

Troy Johnson is an American gospel and soul singer. He got his first break with a track on the Blame it on Rio soundtrack in 1984, and signed to Motown Records, where he released his first album. He scored a hit in 1986 with "It's You", which peaked at number 65 on Billboard′s Hot R&B Singles chart. After a religious conversion, Johnson began recording gospel music. He put his career on hiatus in the late 1990s to focus on spiritual matters, but returned with his own label, SA Entertainment, on which he has released his most recent, secular, album, which featured a new version of "It's You" - again charting, this time peaking at number 40 on Billboard′s Adult Contemporary chart in 2005. more »

I been thinkin' about what might have been
I keep wishin' hadn't said what I did
Honey, is it all over now, is there nothin' left to say
Years gone by, we take it all for granted 
The good life, just the way we planned it 
Darlin,' is it all gone, all gone away

'Cause I don't care what's gone before 
All I'm sayin' don't walk out that door

We got somethin' worth holdin' on to
Got a couple loose ends to work our way through 
But I, I want you to know
I want you to stay

I don't think about it all the time
Only when I'm breathin' and it crosses my mind 
Honey, can we talk it over, maybe find a way
Got to be some feelin' left inside your heart 
Can't give up when we've come so far 
What can you tell me, what can you say

Life ain't gonna get no better
If we just move on and say whatever 
Oh I, I want you to know
I want you to stay

These days most people just up and walk away 
But we ain't most people, we got a reason to stay

I been thinkin' about what might have been
