Met my wife in College back in '94. Held her hand in front of a minister 10 years later. 3 beautiful children of ours later, I thank her in advance for the years to come. Love anthem
These lyrics were so creative!! My favorite are Nathan's "Girl you look like my first wife, though I've never been married before." And Shawn's "Tell me your name, although I know the last one. It's funny that we're shaking hands." Now this was poetry!
used to sing this song to my girlfriend she thought it was sweet now she's my Lil wife...and we have a son and his three sisters, I can listen to BOYZ II MEN everyday and not get bored
This my husband’s and I love story song. He said Thank you in advance when we first met. He wrote down his number and asked me to please call him. He put the number down and said Thank you in advance. I said thank you for what, he said you’ll see. We were engaged 3 months later. We have two children a girl and boy. We got married March 31, 2007. Yesterday we celebrated our 16th wedding anniversary!
This has to be one of the smartest lyrics ever written, and the delivery is just heavenly. Wanya is just something else, his ad-libs just weave in through the harmonies. Thank you B2B for sharing your art with us
I sung this song to my wife when I first met her at the mall and walked up to her and says thank you in advance and she said why and I told her God told me to come to you and love you like a queen that you are and we have been since then I love you wife Hazel Cotton and our Beautiful babies and I won't never let you go and we have been through a lot of bullshit together but we are still going hard We got married February 14th 2003 and we are still married
Please tell me where u got.the confidence to walk up and sing your heart out to her bro, this generations a little different, I'm 21 and idk if I could even imagine myself doing that. God bless bro, I wanna love like Jesus does, always compassionate, never ashamed of His love or afraid to show it.
This right here.....there are no words! I love this song and they totally killed it. This is when there was REAL music. Love songs left you feeling full and with tears in your eyes. I'm floored.
you don't hear Love being poured out like this any more.. thank you in advance.. if only my generation would still listen to music like this... love would be much sweeter.
now its jus about getting the draws Soniah Richardson they fight hard to get you and after they do, they give up the battle and become comfortable and stop doing what they were doing before they got you
The vibe of this songs brings tears every time!!! So glad I grew up in this generation! So sad this don't have more views!!! The lyrics, the melody, the harmony, HOW CAN YOU NOT LOVE THIS?!?!?!?!
You're not the only one that loses it, when Shawn comes in and sing his part, it makes you love him the most, his smooth way, makes you fill like you wish it was you he's singing to but thank you in advance
Best male R&B group of all time hands down. I seen them live back in like 95 when I was a kid, bought the shirt and everything. I grew up singing cuz of these cats, too bad there are many artists who get down like this no more. Young men these days can benefit from listening to this shit. My wife says I'm the most romantic person she's ever dated and that I put in more effort than any of her girls' dudes etc. I credit tbis type of music.
I can't get enough of these beautiful men and their perfect harmonies. I've worn their CDs out through the years, and their music never, ever gets old or stale. Just the best...there's no other group or sound that comes close to those of Boyz II Men.
Everytime Wanya Morris even Hum a note I get lost and I would stop my whole day just to hear him hum and sing whooo Mr.Morris ur voice truly gives me life lawd help me if I ever hear him sing in person I'm might not make it through the song I will faint right there in front of him 😂😂😂😂
When Shawn comes in with that ......Hi my name is Shawn....those 5 words and how he sings it gives me chills every single time!! This is the best love song ever written. Anyone from Phila on here I met my husband in Cheltenham Mall at the movies...LOL Met in June 1995...Married May 2016...First child born June 2018 :) Thank you Boyz II Men
Lyrics: Excuse me, I know we just met But may I have this dance? Sitting here with a drink in my hand Your presence I can't ignore I must admit I like watching you dance But it seems like I've seen this before Girl, you look like my first wife Though I've never been married before So I kiss your hand and tell you "Thank you" You turn and ask me what for For our first kiss, oh, next week For when we make love, in six weeks For the ring you wore probably three months from now For when you said "I do" next March And for those beautiful children of ours Yes, I know it might sound strange 'cause we just met But I thank you in advance Hi, my name is Shawn Tell me your name Although I know the last one It's funny that we're shaking hands (Wait a minute, I know this hand) It's the same hand (I'll hold in front of a minister) Same hand (when you're havin' my son and his sister) I don't mean to sound so bold and forward But I thank you in advance For our first kiss, oh, next week For when we make love, in six weeks For the ring you wore probably three months from now For when you said "I do" next March And for those beautiful children of ours Yes, I know it might sound strange 'cause we just met But I thank you in advance It's like I came back in time to tell you thank you You were as beautiful then as you are now Look in the mirror, there is a picture Of you and the man you love For our first kiss, oh, next week For when we make love, in six weeks For the ring you wore probably three months from now For when you said "I do" next March And for those beautiful children of ours Yes, I know it might sound strange 'cause we just met But I thank you in advance For our first kiss, oh, next week For when we make love, in six weeks For the ring you wore probably three months from now For when you said "I do" next March(?) And for those beautiful children of ours Yes, I know it might sound strange 'cause we just met But I thank you in advance I, I, I, I, I I thank you in advance, ooh Oh oh oh
I know Wanya gets the towering riffs that everyone is familiar with...but it's Nate's voice I'm most drawn to and amazed by. It's so clean, yet rich and buttery.
Wanya brings this home😍 I heard this song for the first time in my 9th grade history class(2001). This guy was listening to it on his CD player next to me. I asked if I could listen to it and fell in love. I had my mom by the single on cd the next day and listened to it on repeat 😂 I’m 35 now and I’m still in love with this song🥰
The way he kisses her hand in 1:58,it's so romantic and melted my heart. That was back when guys really had realistic expectations about women. Gone those days.
This is my favorite group hands down! Been that way for about 30 years. I have every song they've ever sang. But this song and Doin Just Fine are probably my absolute favorites! The fact that you can think to thank someone for the future vision, and place it in such intimate lyrics is absolutely remarkable! This is beyond impressive, it's literally a future testimony in the present. Forever love you guys!
First I just liked the melody and didn't understand the meaning. Later on I realised how powerful this song was, and since then I am so hooked over it.
I sung this song at mine and my wife wedding and she cried when I sung this song and I still sing this song everyday to her and I love you Hazel Cotton so much and she is my queen and I'm so proud to have her in my life
This a perfect sounds to just ride on a warm spring day and let your heart lead you. True me it will if you open up to it. Many tears I shed when I here it. Thank you Boys to Men you made my day.
Boyz II Men is the best Group in the world. All their songs is beautiful, makes you cry, gives encouragement. Their music never fails, and Never will. THANKH you Boyz II Men. May yall continue to keep making music, Bless yall always.
Now i understand why i am unable to listen to today's musik, its becoz of songs like this that were so beautifully done and had meaning. Thank u Boyz 11 Men . you gave us beautifullllllllllllllll musik that is TIMELESS.
Met my wife in College back in '94. Held her hand in front of a minister 10 years later. 3 beautiful children of ours later, I thank her in advance for the years to come. Love anthem
Musicians don't write songs like this no more😢. This is beautifully written and sang too!
+grace muthoni.....I agree wit you...the song is very beautiful n beautifully sang
agreed 100%
I agree with you totally Grace
True
They still do only the style is Abit convoluted
Its sad this generation will never know the true meaning of a REAL LOVE SONG
You are so right.
Well... I am 16 years old, but you are so right.
Now it's all about having b*tches and money. That era is gone. This one will also pass.
Agreed 💯💯
Or real love😢
These lyrics were so creative!! My favorite are Nathan's "Girl you look like my first wife, though I've never been married before." And Shawn's "Tell me your name, although I know the last one. It's funny that we're shaking hands."
Now this was poetry!
Beautiful!!!!!! Song!!!!!
Straight up poetic
Fa sho
All these years later and this song still hits the stop.No nudity,no curse words...pure poetry!
used to sing this song to my girlfriend she thought it was sweet now she's my Lil wife...and we have a son and his three sisters, I can listen to BOYZ II MEN everyday and not get bored
Sounds great i sending greetings to you and your family. This Music is timeless and food for the soul.
❤️❤️❤️❤️👑💯💯💕💕💕🧿⭐ so happy for u all 💕💕💯🧿🌹🌹🦾
You're blessed ❤never stop listening to it.
Michael’s voice just completes this group🥺❤️🔥
Yess Indeed 💜💜💜

I love the fact that you see beautiful black women in these guys videos and they are not dropping it like it's hot, or half naked. I love BoyzIIMen.
Because, these are men
Wanya always puts his stamp on a song!!!😍😍😍😍😍
That guy is something else
Once he hit that "look in the mirror" you knew he was about to go crazy
This right here.....there are no words! I love this song and they totally killed it. This is when there was REAL music. Love songs left you feeling full and with tears in your eyes. I'm floored.
De tears just cum u don't need to force it. I agree with you
PREACH ON IT
Back when RnB meant something now days its bullshit
Completely FULL!! and satisfied just puts the biggest smile on your face ☺
why the hell dont they write or make music like this again?? shivers down my spine, goose bumps and tears down me eyes.
This outdated music
I'm still in awe to a song being written and sang in the future tense..superb..
+petal james Shep Crawford the writer/producer liked to do that with some of his songs. He brought a new way of writing songs to rnb.
not to mention perfect blend with the video
'' for when we made love in six weeks''. Damn these homies plan!
Hhahaha! I'm telling you!
ZN Neka is it me, or is 6 weeks kind of a long time?
lol. its you
But what about the ring in 3 month? Lol
My understanding of the song was it was a premonition type song
Priceless. Thank you Boyz II Men for being true and classy Men and for giving so, so many of us the most amazing memories through your music.
Thank you girl you couldn't said it any better
I like this song i will play it at my wedding if my wife agree to it

Anyone from Phila on here I met my husband in Cheltenham Mall at the movies...LOL Met in June 1995...Married May 2016...First child born June 2018 :) Thank you Boyz II Men
Shawn just killed me with that voice and then they started harmonizing to make sure I was dead.
Haha
Boyz II Men are The Goats of R&B!!!! No other group is touching them vocally or song wise!!! Here are your flowers brothers!!!
🌹🌹🌹🌹
They from the hometown Philadelphia so I have to support them
Lyrics:
Excuse me, I know we just met
But may I have this dance?
Sitting here with a drink in my hand
Your presence I can't ignore
I must admit I like watching you dance
But it seems like I've seen this before
Girl, you look like my first wife
Though I've never been married before
So I kiss your hand and tell you "Thank you"
You turn and ask me what for
For our first kiss, oh, next week
For when we make love, in six weeks
For the ring you wore probably three months from now
For when you said "I do" next March
And for those beautiful children of ours
Yes, I know it might sound strange 'cause we just met
But I thank you in advance
Hi, my name is Shawn
Tell me your name
Although I know the last one
It's funny that we're shaking hands
(Wait a minute, I know this hand)
It's the same hand (I'll hold in front of a minister)
Same hand (when you're havin' my son and his sister)
I don't mean to sound so bold and forward
But I thank you in advance
For our first kiss, oh, next week
For when we make love, in six weeks
For the ring you wore probably three months from now
For when you said "I do" next March
And for those beautiful children of ours
Yes, I know it might sound strange 'cause we just met
But I thank you in advance
It's like I came back in time to tell you thank you
You were as beautiful then as you are now
Look in the mirror, there is a picture
Of you and the man you love
For our first kiss, oh, next week
For when we make love, in six weeks
For the ring you wore probably three months from now
For when you said "I do" next March
And for those beautiful children of ours
Yes, I know it might sound strange 'cause we just met
But I thank you in advance
For our first kiss, oh, next week
For when we make love, in six weeks
For the ring you wore probably three months from now
For when you said "I do" next March(?)
And for those beautiful children of ours
Yes, I know it might sound strange 'cause we just met
But I thank you in advance
I, I, I, I, I
I thank you in advance, ooh
Oh oh oh

I know Wanya gets the towering riffs that everyone is familiar with...but it's Nate's voice I'm most drawn to and amazed by. It's so clean, yet rich and buttery.
Wanya brings this home😍 I heard this song for the first time in my 9th grade history class(2001). This guy was listening to it on his CD player next to me. I asked if I could listen to it and fell in love. I had my mom by the single on cd the next day and listened to it on repeat 😂 I’m 35 now and I’m still in love with this song🥰
The way he kisses her hand in 1:58,it's so romantic and melted my heart. That was back when guys really had realistic expectations about women. Gone those days.
I really love the message in this song...the fact that a man can fall in love at first sight is nothing short of amazing.
This is my favorite group hands down! Been that way for about 30 years. I have every song they've ever sang. But this song and Doin Just Fine are probably my absolute favorites! The fact that you can think to thank someone for the future vision, and place it in such intimate lyrics is absolutely remarkable! This is beyond impressive, it's literally a future testimony in the present. Forever love you guys!
This is a true love song. Thank you B2M. I'm a big fan of you here in Brazil
cleverly written...going in the future to see this romance and presenting it in the present...brilliant!!
This is my favorite Boyz ll men song of all time, my absolute favorite
2.22 to 2.30 The harmony INSANE!
Yall me and my mom going see them tomorrow 😩😍 I hope they sing this. This my favorite song ❤

One of the best cds ever..people slept on it
I was in Camden NJ for a concert in 2001 and met Michael McCary, this man is so nice it's sad that he's not in this group anymore.
November 13, 2024!! 🙌🏽👏🏽 Boyy, do I LOVE to hear Wanya/Boyz II Men sing!!
