|
Well, well, well, well |
|
Seems like it was only yesterday |
|
When my mama told me don't fall in love |
|
With the first guy that comes your way |
|
He was handsome and nice |
|
But I took her advice and passed him by |
|
Years have passed and don't look |
|
Like love's gonna give me a second try |
|
Boy the look on your face tells me you understand |
|
Could it be your love life's like mine |
|
Needs a helping hand well, well |
|
You need love like I do (don't you). |
|
Boy I can tell by the way |
|
You look when I'm looking at you |
|
I know it ain't fit and proper |
|
For a girl to talk this way |
|
But I can't cope with this loneliness |
|
Not one more doggone day |
|
Everyday has been an uphill climb |
|
Keeping my hopes a-float |
|
Judging from your silence boy |
|
You must be in the same boat |
|
Ain't it true now |
|
You need love like I do (don't you) |
|
Boy I can tell by the way you look |
|
When I'm looking at you |
|
Well, well, well you need love |
|
Like I do (don't you) |
|
Boy it seems like I'm looking in the mirror |
|
When I'm looking at you |
|
I can't begin to tell |
|
The many nights I sit home lonely |
|
Come on and tell me boy |
|
Has it ever happened to you |
|
Boy I'm gonna tell you something |
|
And believe me it ain't no joke |
|
My love life is just like a sinking boat |
|
I can understand a person being without money |
|
But there sho' ain't no reason |
|
For a person to be without love |
|
Listen to me now |
|
I'm a girl and you're a guy |
|
So come on let's give love a try |
|
Tell me lil' boy |
|
You need love like I do (don't you) |
|
I can tell by the way you look |
|
When I'm looking at you |
|
Boy finding true love is a dream |
|
That everyone wants to come true |
|
Boy can't you see it's up to us |
|
To make this dream come true oh. |
