Maybe the greatest songwriter ever. Babyface has a song for any occasion.

WISH PEOPLE CAN APPRECIATE HIS WORK MORE

[@petrenavengreen]

He's my favorite songwriter of all time. Babyface wrote so many hit songs from the 80s to now. And they are well written.

[@strauqq1]

Specifically "Two occasions" 🙊 I had to.

[@frankfim]

the very best that's ever been and stood the test of time.

[@unapologeticcook7168]

The meaning of the song is just unbelievable. It cuts right thru the heart of someone who lost their soul mate.

[@robertpoole825]

Like me. Lol

[@Mr88karats]

Lost mine

[@tcb9775]

Especially if your soulmate is Sanaa Lathan

[@shevettejackson.]

Right

[@romainejohnsonsr.5997]

VERY TRUE!!! I lost my love a couple of decades ago and she's moved on......I guess I haven't yet.

[@hoilife]

I ran into a friend of yours the other day, And I asked her how you'd bin. She said 'My girl is fine just bought a house, got a job, real good man.' I told her I was glad for you, that's wonderful, But does she ever ask 'bout me? 'She says she's happy with her life right now, let her go, let her be.' And I told myself I would but something in my heart just would not let you go. I just wanna know... What if we were wrong about each other? What if you were really made for me? What if we were supposed to be together? Would that not mean anything? What if that was supposed to be my house that you go home to everyday? How can you be sure that things are better? If you can't be sure your heart ain't still here with me, Still wanting me. Your friend asked me if there was someone special in my life that I was seein', I told her there was no one in particular, There's just I, myself and me. I told her that I dream of you quite often, She just cut her eyes at me, She said you got a home, you're very happy, So just stop your medling! I told her that I won't, I said things are cool, but I guess I was wrong. I still can't move on. Now that could be my car, That could be my house, That could be my baby boy that you're nursing. That could be the trash which I always take out, That could be the chair I love to chill in. That could be my food on the table at the end of the day. Hugs and the kisses, all the love we make. What the hell do you expect me to say? What if it's really supposed to be this way? What if you're really supposed to be with me? (Ooh!)

[@yehwehislord1556]

I will never stop listening to the hush-love voice of my sweet Babyface ….Toni Braxton has had me hooked on how expressively passionate her voice brings her words to life….as if her heart is almost too beautiful to behold, and yet, at the same time, being captivated by the purest form of the living emotions of Miss Toni

[@JoeJoe-di4oj]

i love how passionate he is at the end. i was reminded that part in the song. that could be my car that could be my house that could be my baby boy that your nursing...that could be the trash that i always take out that could be the chair that i love to chill in. that could be us and all the love that we make... yes! awesome song

[@clarissawestbrook2203]

This song has such a great message to it. I love Babyface's vocals! This song is in my top five favorite from him and its so underrated. His whole Face2Face album is so slept on its a top three greatest albums by Babyface in my opinion!
