Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Ooh
[Verse 2]
Damn, boy, you make it hard
Shouldn't need a riddle to unlock your heart
So, say what's on your mind
We got other things that we could do with our
[Verse 3]
Time, we could rule the world
Know you say you never need another girl
But you're not making sense
Tryna keep it movin' while you're on the fence
[Verse 4]
Tell me, black and white, why I'm here tonight
I can't read the signs (Stop)
[Verse 5]
Stop talkin' in codes
Stop talkin' in codes
Let me know what's up, can't do it no more
I need a love to celebrate
[Verse 6]
Stop talkin' in codes
Stop talkin' in codes
Let me know what's up, can't do it no more
So, baby, take it all the way
Stop talkin' in codes
[Verse 7]
It's a mystery
I know that something happened in your history
Oh, it's too much to risk
You gimme some, but you've been holdin' most of it
[Verse 8]
Back, so it's no surprise
Everything you do I over-analyze
Breathe in and out
Baby, gimme something new to think about
[Verse 9]
Tell me, black and white, why I'm here tonight
I can't read the signs (Stop)
[Verse 10]
Stop talkin' in codes
Stop talkin' in codes
Let me know what's up, can't do it no more
I need a love to celebrate
[Verse 11]
Stop talkin' in codes
Stop talkin' in codes
Let me know what's up, can't do it no more
So, baby, take it all the way
Stop talkin' in codes
[Verse 12]
Ooh
Ooh (Hey)
Hoo
[Verse 13]
So tell me, black and white, why I'm here tonight
I can't read the signs (Stop)
[Verse 14]
Stop talkin' in codes
Stop talkin' in codes
Let me know what's up, can't do it no more
I need a love to celebrate
[Verse 15]
Stop talkin' in codes
Stop talkin' in codes
Let me know what's up, can't do it no more
So, baby, take it all the way
Stop, stop talkin' in codes
[Verse 16]
Stop talkin' in codes
Let me know what's up, can't do it no more
I need a love to celebrate (I need a love, whoa-oh-oh, yeah)
Stop talkin' in codes
Stop talkin' in codes
Let me know what's up, can't do it no more
So, baby, take it all the way
Stop talkin' in codes
