Oh, baby
My lady
Oh-ooh
Ooh yeah, ooh oh

You like what you're hearin', baby?
What's goin' on?
I've seen you around my way a couple times
You must have just moved around the way, right?
I see all the fellas been pressin' you for your number
I'd like to get to know you, so um
Maybe we can spend some time and talk on the phone or somethin'

I can think of many ways to say
I love you
And with those many ways there comes
A time
For me to say I'll put no girl before you
So pretty lady, make up your mind

Girl, you look surprised I got conversation
'Cause you ain't checkin' for the kids I swing with, no
Girl, can we please get past impressions
'Cause what I feel for you
I swear is legit

Your girls tell you, "Watch him, he's an entertainer" (entertainer)
They say I'll hurt you
And break your heart (your heart, your heart, but they)
They don't now well, well
Just what I'm feelin'
From the first time I saw you
I loved you from the very start

I can think of many ways to say
I love you (I love you, baby)
And with those many ways there comes
A time (time in my life)
For me to say I'll put no girl before you (no, no, no, no, no, no girl)
So pretty lady, make up your mind

I saw you 'round my way and I had to meet you
But I've gotta let you know I'm just somebody (somebody)
(Who wants to care) who wants to care for you
With lots of love and patience (for you yeah, yeah, yeah)
So please, understand
Why I'm takin' my time
I'm fallin' deeper and deeper and deeper (deeper, deeper, deeper) yeah, baby
And I'm so glad we had this conversation
Because girl, when it comes to you there's no confusion
(Baby I ain't confused)
And I can't get it in your head (no)
And I'm havin' a fit (yeah)

I can think of many ways to say
I love you (lovin' you)
And with those many ways there comes
A time (it's our time)
For me to say I'll put no girl before you (no girls before you)
So pretty lady, make up your mind (so pretty lady, make up your mind)

(Young lady) young lady
I miss you in my life (yeah)
I'm on a mission just to please you right
(Ooh ooh, yeah)

(Sweet lady) sweet, sweet lady
The thought of no you cuts just like a knife
(Thought of no you cuts just like a knife)
Cuts like a knife (girl, I've learned)

Girl, I've learned my lesson
No, we can't let others in (ooh)
Misery loves some company
They don't see it's from within
It's you for me and me for you
But first, we must be friends (yeah)
I'll keep my love comin' and comin' and comin', babe
Girl, we can win
Oh, yeah

I can think of many ways to say (many, many ways)
I love you
And with those many ways there comes a time (there comes a time, yeah)
For me to say I'll put no girl before you (I'll put no girl before you, baby)
So pretty lady, make up your mind (pretty lady, make up your mind)

(Ooh ooh) girl, I've learned my lesson
No, we can't let others in (yeah)(please be mine)
Misery loves some company
They don't see it's from within
It's you for me and me for you
But first, we must be friends (whoa yeah, oh)
I'll keep my love comin', more love comin'
Girl, we can win
Girl, I've learned my lesson
No, we can't let others in
Misery loves some company
They don't see it's from within
It's you for me and me for you
