After the hopin and the prayin and the wishin
Girl you're right here in my face
I've never been the one to bite my tongue, no
But I have not one word to say
I'm mesmerized by your sexy eyes, and
Your soft and lovely skin
I want this fiasco to end
So baby we can start all over again
Listen
I wanna be able (I wanna be able to love you, oh I)
I wanna be able (And let me be the one to please you, oh I)
As sure as the sunshine shines all over the earth
You're one of God's most precious worth's
See I'm a man and we make mistakes but please don't take your love away, oh I
Don't take your love away (Don't take)
Baby don't take your love away from me
I need you girl
Don't take your love away (oh)
Don't take your love away
Don't take your love away (don't take)
Baby don't take your love away from me (my baby)
I need you girl
Don't take your love away baby
Mama said don't put your hands in the cookie jar
She said son have control
She said everything that's sweet aint good for you, no
(That's what she said)
And everything that glitters aint gold
And now that you're gone
I realize (yes I do) I lost my soul (preach)
And I wanna pass the torch
Baby can you give me one more (one more) chance
I wanna be able (able to do everything I didn't do before for you baby)
I wanna be able (Listen, I wanna love you o, o, o, over again)
Gotta hold myself together, stay strong
Baby you been gone too long
See I'm a man and we make mistakes so baby, baby, baby don't take your love away
Don't take your love away (I'll get down on my hands and knees)
Baby don't take your love away from me (Beggin, beggin you please)
I need you girl
Don't take your love away (don't, don't leave me now)
Don't take your love away (I need you right here with me)
Don't take your love away (please, please, please, please, please yeah)
Baby,
