I've been around for quite some time
Patiently waiting for you to settle down
But my patience is starting to wear very thin
From your stories of women time and time again
So don't take my love for granted
Or you might lose this good thing
I'm trying to do the best I can for you
And when you stop playing around
You'll really know it's true that
I'm the one you need, baby
If you look inside your heart
You'll really know it's true that
I'm the one you need, baby
'Cause I care for you
I live for you
I'm not out to get your money
'Cause I buy my own clothes and I pay my own rent
All I want from you is love and affection
That'll keep us moving in the right direction
So don't take my love for granted
Or you might lose this good thing
I'm trying to the best I can for you
And when you stop playing around
You'll really know it's true that
I'm the one you need, baby
If you look inside your heart
You'll really know it's true that
I'm the one you need, baby
'Cause I care for you
I live for you
I'm the one you need, baby
Ooh, wow, woo, oh, oh
Ooh, wow, wow, oh
Ooh, wow, wow, oh, oh
Ooh, wow, wow, oh
Don't take my love for granted
Or you might lose this good thing
I'm trying to do the best I can for you
And when you stop playing around
You'll really know it's true that
I'm the one you need, baby
If you look inside your heart
You'll really know it's true that
I'm the one you need, baby
'Cause I care for you
I live for you
I'm the one you need, baby
Yeah, I'm the one you need, baby
I'm the one you need, baby
I'm the one you need, baby
'Cause I care for you
I live for you
I'd die for you
Yeah, I'm the one you need, baby
I'm the one you need
I'm the one
