Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I saw you walk down the street with some other girl, yeah
Always thought that I was the only one in your world
Baby, can you tell me so?
Outta sight, outta mind, ain't what love oughta be, yeah
And I hoped all the time you'd be faithful to me
You'd be faithful to me
[Verse 2]
All I'm askin' you for when you walk out the door
Is to be my baby, baby
I just wanna be sure that forever and more
You would be my baby
[Verse 3]
Love is just like a flower, baby, it has to grow, yeah
And when you are away, I'm even lovin' you more
I just have to let you know, one on one is the way
And that's the way it should be, yeah
So if you're not gonna stay, then don't be playin' with me
You can set me free
[Verse 4]
All I'm askin' you for when you walk out the door
Is to be my baby, baby
'Cause all this love is for you and you know that I'm true
And I'll be your baby
[Verse 5]
All I'm askin' you for when you walk out the door
Is to be my baby, baby
'Cause you knew from the start that you were workin' my heart
Won't you be my baby?
[Verse 6]
Ooh
Ooh
Oh, no, oh, no
[Verse 7]
I remember our walk the other Saturday night, yeah
Sweet harmonies filled and floated through our minds
Never felt this way before
We were riding so high on love and understanding
So why go wastin' your time when you have got such a find
That is everlasting?
[Verse 8]
All I'm askin' you for when you walk out the door
Is to be my baby, baby
I just wanna be sure that forever and more
You would be my baby
[Verse 9]
All I'm askin' you for when you walk out the door
Is to be my baby, baby
'Cause all this love is for you, and you know that I'm true
And I'll be your baby
[Verse 10]
And I want you to love me, baby
Ooh, ooh, alright, alright
Alright
And I want you to love me, baby
