Lyrics
1st V
Last night at my place-You said something bad to my face-
What did I do to deserve abuse-I wanna hear your excuse-
Did I say or do something wrong?-The love for you I have is true and really strong-
Please tell me why oh why?- It hurt so bad that I could cry-
1st Ch
What is it that you need...cause I can give? What is it that you need..your love I live?
So tell me, tell me-right now, right here--What is it that you need-You want me too?-
What is it that you need cause I want you-What is it that you need-you want me too?
So tell me, tell me-I wanna know..I need to know-
4 bars music
(all my love I have for you.......all my love is really true........all my loveI have for you......
wanna tell me what's goin on?)
2nd V
Please-----I'll get down and beg on my knees-
You still hav'nt told what the problem is-my heart is telling me you think it's none of my biz-
Say it now or write a letter to me-I need to know so my heart can see-
It's not right to do me this way-It's not much more that I can say---
2nd Ch
What is it that you want...cause I can give?-What is it that you need ...your love I live?-
So tell me, tell me-I wanna know..I need to know-
What is it that you want...Cause I want you?-What is it that you need...you want me too?
So tell metell me-I wanna know..I need to know-
Rap
Most the time theres a ryhme or a reason-In your case not it must be the season
For a change, rearrange, it seems so strange
Cause a love like ours have infinate range
Make it clear my dear and have no fear-No matter what the deal is..for you I'm here.
Life goes on and can be fun-Stick together, see it through and keep it on the 1!
