Lyrics
[Intro]
Girl, why don't you
Give our love our a chance?
Girl, why don't you
(Why don't you)
Just give our love a chance?
[Instrumental]
I know that you done
The best that you could (Could)
Give me your heart
If you could give me your heart
I know that you would (Would)
Listen
And I can't say for myself
That I been good
[PreChorus]
But, oh, you gotta love me, baby (Love me)
You gotta (Need me)
You gotta wanna hold me
Baby, baby, squeeze me
[Chorus]
For the love that I gave
To you
Baby, for the love that I gave
To you
Ooh, baby
Hey, baby
[Verse 1]
And I must admit
You're looking fine (Fine)
(Look in my eyes)
But if you look in my eyes
You'll know that I been cryin' (Cryin')
Yes you will
How do I cry? (Oh, my baby)
But this time I'm gonna be
So true
[PreChorus]
But oh, you gotta love me, baby (Love me)
I need you in the worst way, baby (Need me)
I want you to myself (Hold me)
Baby, baby, squeeze me
Damn, baby, I just can't take it anymore
[Chorus]
For the love that I gave
To you
Baby, for the love that I gave
To you
Put it right here, baby
Why you wanna leave me, lady?
Come on back
I know that I can be so good, baby (For the love)
Just give me a chance, girl (That I gave)
Whatever you want from me, girl
To you
I'll prove to you
How bad I want you to be mine
For the love that I gave
To you
You're all I need
I'll have you every day, baby
For the love that I gave (For the love, baby, oh)
To you
(Oh, baby, I want you to know I'll never let you go)
