And all my girls say
What!

Tie me up, tie me up
Oh, oh, baby
Oh yeah
Last night I had a dream
And I couldn't sleep
What was wrong with me
Thinkin' 'bout the fight we had
And it makes me mad
That I'd go off like that
Wish I could take it back
So, baby, I apologize
It wasn't right
Is there a compromise that we could find
Cause I be thinkin' you're insensitive
But it's just different from mine

[Chorus]
Understand the nature of a man
And realize that we're just different
I understand that if I be me and you be you
We know love will pull us through
Understand the nature of a man

I understand
I'll be there for you
Baby, through and through
I'll be your candied yams
You know I love you, Boo
I'm not tryin' to be the man
Nah, ain't got that kinda nerve
Ain't tryin' to role reverse
I know I wear the purse
To me it's not about control
That's not what I want
It's your love I want
And from you I want
All the little character flaws
It's one of nature's laws
From the beginning of time

[Chorus]

You're the creamy part
Of my chocolate star
That's what you are
You stole my heart
The fragrance of my melody
I can't describe what you are to me
My baby, my baby
You do that thing for me

[Chorus]
