Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Ooh, pretty baby
Ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 2]
Baby, what you searchin' for?
I'm pretty sure that you just don't know 'cause
You're lookin' with your body, not your head
You're brilliant and beautiful
But they don't see it when they take you home 'cause
You're just another notch that's in their bed, baby
[Verse 3]
Ooh, oh, pretty baby (Oh, pretty baby)
Ooh, oh (Ooh, babe)
Ooh, oh, pretty baby (Why, why you wanna go and do that?)
Ooh, oh (Baby)
[Verse 4]
I can feel your emptiness
Yeah, I can see it behind those eyes
Waiting for the one who understands (Someone who understands)
Though I'm nothing like the rest (Oh, no)
I'm invisible because you're blind (Blind, baby)
Jaded and blinded to a chance (To take a chance with me)
[Verse 5]
Ooh, oh, pretty baby
Ooh, oh (Whoa)
Ooh, oh, pretty baby (Oh, you're so beautiful)
Ooh, oh (Why you wanna come, do that, baby)
[Verse 6]
Don't lie to yourself (No, don't you lie)
Don't let them inside while your heart keeps crying
Show love for yourself (Love for yourself)
Discover your light, where you'll find me (The light)
[Verse 7]
(No, baby)
Don't lie to yourself (No, don't you lie)
Don't let them inside while your heart keeps crying
(I know your heart is crying, baby)
Show love for yourself (Show a little love for yourself)
Discover your light, where you'll find me (The light)
[Verse 8]
Ooh, oh, pretty baby
Ooh, oh (Oh, baby, oh, baby)
(Why you wanna put yourself out there like that, girl?)
Ooh, oh, pretty baby (Oh, babe)
Ooh, oh (Ooh)
[Verse 9]
(You make me say)
Ooh, oh, pretty baby
Ooh, oh (Oh, why? You make me say)
Ooh, oh, pretty baby (Pretty baby, I love you, babe)
(Such a lovely lady) Ooh, oh
(Oh, and why you wanna put yourself out there like that, girl?)
Ooh, oh, pretty baby (You gonna miss your chance, but)
Ooh, oh (Happiness, tenderness, don't miss your opportunity)
Ooh, oh, pretty baby (Show a little self-esteem, baby)
(Break it, babe)
(Pretty girl, yeah, don't you do that to yourself, babe)
Ooh, oh, pretty baby
Ooh, oh (No)
(Oh, yeah)
