Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Listen baby, don't even waste your tears on that insensitive man
There's better things for you
I mean, what you really need is someone who cares
Someone that's gonna be there for you
Someone like me, baby
Someone with sensitivity, ooh
[Verse 2]
You understand?
Can you feel it?
Hey, yeah
Na, na, na, na
[Verse 3]
Girl, I know it's been hard since he went away
And left you so sad, you cry every day
Let me kiss your tears, erase all your doubts
'Cause for you I'm here, you won't be without love
(Listen, baby)
[Verse 4]
Don't need a man that'll give you money (No)
Come on, let me show you just what you need, honey
(I got what you need)
Don't need a man that'll treat you funny
Well, you need a man with sensitivity
A man like me
[Verse 5]
Someone who can love you, someone who will need you
Someone who will treat you right, like me, girl
Someone you can hold at night, someone stable in your life
Oh, baby, ah
You need a man with sensitivity
A man like me
[Verse 6]
Baby, honey
Baby, and I'm the man
Ah, you know, you know, honey, like I do, baby (I got you)
Hang in there (I got you)
Hang on in there, baby, ooh
You need a man with sensitivity
A man like me
[Verse 7]
You see, you need someone who's there like a gentleman
If anybody can fit the description, baby, I can
Someone who cares and dares to give himself completely
You got it in me
You need a man with sensitivity
[Verse 8]
You need a man, not any man
Warm and sensitive, that's what I can give
You need a man, not any man
Warm and sensitive, that's what I can give
You need a man, not any man (I'm a gentleman)
Warm and sensitive, that's what I can give
Man (Man) with (A man) sensitivity (Man, yeah, baby)
A man like
[Verse 9]
Don't need a man that'll give you money
(Don't need a man, ooh)
Come on, let me show you just what you need, honey
(Oh, I've got what you need, baby)
Don't need a man that'll treat you funny
(I'm a gentleman, honey)
You need a man with sensitivity
A man like
[Verse 10]
Save a little love for me (Save it, baby)
Sensitivity
Baby, I know what you need (I got it)
Sensitivity
Save a little love for me (Save, baby, love for me, yeah)

Man with (Hold on) sensitivity (Hold on me)
A man like
[Verse 11]
Hold on, my darlin' (Hang on me, baby, things are gonna be alright)
Don't let me down (I already saw your doubts)
Hold on, my darlin' (I'm here for you, baby, no matter what)
Man with sensitivity (Ooh, silky, silky)
A man like
[Verse 12]

Oh, sugar, no, no, no, no
