I was standing at 7:15 waiting for my baby's car
Just then out stepped the driver of a limousine
And asked if I was going far
I said I've got my mind made up
I don't wanna leave him baby cause it's clear to me
That it's just to tough to find another lover like mine

With the right stuff
The right stuff baby
I don't wanna miss out on the right stuff
Ooh no with Mr. Right


Just Friday 'bout a week ago
This fellow called me on the phone
And said "I live in Paris, don't you want to go
I know you must be all alone"

Well, it'll take more than a fancy trip
Or a chauffeured limousine
Cause I ain't never seen no one
Who could give me love like this
The other fellows don't compare

To the right stuff
The right stuff baby
I don't wanna miss out on the right stuff
Ooh no with Mr. Right
Sing

He's the only to give me that lovin'
Cause next to him there is no other one
He's very sexy and oh so sweet
And he knocks me off my feet
Say it

I need the right stuff
I got to have the right stuff
I don't wanna miss out on the right stuff

Be a man about it!
My heart's ringing like a telephone
Pick it up and dial in the answer
Oh I'm sick and tired of being alone
Let me know if love is what you're after

Just be a man about it
You don't have to worry
I won't turn you down
Just be a man about it
Oh don't complicate it
Let me know you'll be around

I took you from the number one
When you said you'd be with me forever
But I don't appreciate the cost that I am paying
For your being clever

So be a man about it
Oh don't complicate it
You don't have to lead me on
Just be a man about it
Just want you to love me right
You can't go wrong

If you just be a man about it
You don't have to worry
I won't turn you down
Just be a man about it
Oh don't complicate it
Let me know you'll be around

We could really have a good thing going
Though we don't know where it will lead
But we, we've got to keep the communication flowing
But that's not all I need
So won'tcha

Just be a man about it
You don't have to worry
I won't turn you down
Just be a man about it
Oh don't complicate it
Let me know you'll be around

So be a man about it
Oh don't complicate it
You don't have to lead me on
Just be a man about it
Just want you to love me right
You can't go wrong

You just be a man... (BREAK)

We could really have a good thing going
Though we don't know where it will lead
But we, we've got to keep the communication flowing
But that's not all I need
So won'tcha

Be a man about it

For the life of me
I never thought that it could be
The way it stands right now
Emotions running high
Every night I wish that I
Could tell you how I feel
Those words are here in my heart
Oh but there is just one missing part

How to put it together
How to say it right
And let you know that
Every night

I'll be dreamin'
Dreamin'
Hoping baby you will be there
I'll be dreamin'
Dreamin'
Hoping baby you will be there

Let me take time out
To try and find out
If this could be real
Cause reality scares me
I've been living a fantasy
How should I feel

Those words are here in my heart
Oh but there is just one missing part

How to put it together
How to say it right
And let you know that
Every night

I'll be dreamin'
Dreamin'
Hoping baby you will be there
I'll be dreamin'
Dreamin'
Hoping baby you will be there

-What's the matter?
-I just can't seem to make him understand
-Well, did you tell him how you feel?
-I tried that, but it just went in one ear and out the other
-Why don't you show him how you feel?
-Show him?
-Show him. Alright!
I can't imagine
Why you're feeling sad
If you're really trying girl
To give just what you have

You've got that certain kind of man
Who really needs a lot
So tell him what you'll do for him
And show him what you've got

Don't you know that love is watching you
So speak with your heart
It's the kind of love that guilds you through (guilds you through)
And you'll know just what to do
So...

If you really love him
Then make a way to show him what you really feel
If you really need him
Don't hesitate
You got to let him know your love's for real

This feeling's got you burning
Deep within your soul
The things you want to do for him
To somehow let him know

Cause you know that love is watching you
So speak with your heart
It's the kind of love that guilds you through (guilds you through)
And you'll know just what to do
So...

If you really love him
Then make a way to show him what you really feel
If you really need him
Don't hesitate
You got to let him know your love's for real

Girl you've got to let him know
If you love him let it show
And you'll know just what to do
Hey, yeah

If you really love him
Then make a way to show him what you really feel
If you really need him
Don't hesitate
You got to let him know your love's for real

Gotta know, baby
He's got the look, baby
I want to know
He's got the look, baby
Just got to know

One sleepless night
No end in sight
Went out to have some fun
Rocked till morning light
To my surprise he caught my eye, yeah
My heart skipped a beat
What's happening to me

He's got the look, baby
I want to know
So fine (word)
Almost a crime
He's got the look, baby
Just got to know
Anytime (get with it)
Gonna make him mine

He came to me
Said "do you like what you see"
No time for acting shy
Love's got a hold on me
His classy style, that sexy smile
Right then and there I knew
He was the one for me
Hey

Night dancing (hold me closer)
Romancing (awe baby)
Sweet love in your eyes
Together, forever
That's how it will be

He's got the look, baby
I want to know
Oh yeah
When you move, I like what you do
He's got he look
Baby, just got to know
Oh yeah
My heart skipped a beat baby
I like what I see

I'm on in my
a heart so easy
it's just for you
I'm singing I don't waste time in dession
we've got things to do so let's in

Any time you feel like a linlow
I'll be there to give my heart
when you see it's me let's it think in on
all you got to do it's call and baby

CHORUS:
I'll be the one who loves you
I'll be the rythm that make your hear

. . .



Security
Sometimes it's hard
When I don't know where you're going
Or where you've been
I got a broken heart
Surely, if you let me know you care for me
My heart will mend

Darling, I can't wait forever
You've got to let me know or let me go (let me go)
All I'm saying is
You can't keep playing with
A heart that loves you so

Security
That's what we need, to keep our love strong
Security
Don't make me wait to long
Security
You gotta let me know if this is what you want
Security
Don't keep me hanging on


I'm sure you know
If you take the time to think about it, you will realize
Honey, now not too long ago
I used to play around but that's all over
You're my only guy

Re-evaluate this situation
Better check out your priorities
You've got to get it straight
No hesitation
If what you want is me

Security
That's what we need, to keep our love strong
Security
Don't make me wait to long
Security
You gotta let me know if this is what you want
Security
Don't keep me hanging on


Security
That's what we need, to keep our love strong
Security
Don't make me wait to long
Security
You gotta let me know if this is what you want
Security
Don't keep me hanging on


Darling, I can't wait forever
You've got to let me know - or let me go (let me go)
All I'm saying is
You can't keep playing with
A heart that loves you so

I realize that now our love is past
Tried so hard to make it last
Feelings are far gone
They seem to fade away
But yet I can hear him say
We did try, tried our best
To make it through those times
Let's stop, don't go any further
'Cause I need some time
Darlin' I know you never ment to make me cry
I never understood your reasons why
And darlin' I know you never ment to make me cry
These lonely nights without you
I guess it's goodbye

And I never thought that I would hear you say
I should go on my own way
Tell me, can't you see the changes
That you put me through
I wonder if you really knew
How much I tried my best to make it
Through those times
But you said stop, don't go any further
'Cause I need more time
Oh, baby and...

Darlin' I know you never ment to make me cry
I never understood your reasons why
And darlin' I know you never ment to make me cry
These lonely nights without you
I guess it's goodbye (Goodbye)

Darlin' I know you never ment to make me cry
I never understood your reasons why
And darlin' I know you never ment to make me cry
These lonely nights without you
I guess it's goodbye (Goodbye)

Pressure, pressure
Can you feel the heat boy
I wanna know, are you just a weak boy
Pressure, pressure
I don't wanna make you sweat, baby
But you don't even know what pressure is
We haven't got started yet
I know you've been watching my every move
But baby what's that look on you face
(Right now)
I'm not your average lady
Don't act so surprised
Most boys can't keep up at my pace
(And that's a fact)

Oh I'm not trying to scare you, no
I'm only trying to be polite
So pardon me for asking, baby
But boy, you look a little uptight

Tell me
Am I too much
Am I too much for you
(REPEAT)

Listen up
If you get to know me
You'll understand why I am the woman that I am
You say you're tired of trying to figure me out
I guess you know by now
I set the trend (and you love it)

Oh, I'm not trying to scare you, no
I'm only trying to live my life
So pardon me for asking baby
But boy, you look a little uptight

Tell me
Am I too much
Am I too much for you
(REPEAT)

Pressure, pressure
Can you feel the heat, boy
I wanna know, are you just a weak boy
Pressure, pressure
I don't wanna make you sweat, baby
But you don't even know what pressure is
We haven't got started yet

Are you nervous
Or do you always act this way

Your face, my door
Haven't we both been here before
Slight trace no more
You're with me somehow
Your touch, my hand
Softspoken words I understand
Nights spent, days planned
I'm asking you how

Can this be real
Can this be love I'm feelin'
Can this be a dream that fades in morning light
Can this be real
Can this be love I'm feelin'
Are you what you seem
Will you be real tonight

Quick turn, long stares
Is that a shadow, or are you there
You feel so near
What is this confusion

Ooo your voice soft and low
Blends in my ear with breezes that blow
No choice I know
I ask my illusions

Can this be real
Can this be love I'm feelin'
Can this be a dream that fades in morning light
Can this be real
Can this be love I'm feelin'
Are you what you seem
Will you be real tonight

Night goes, and day's here
I can still remember the taste of a tear
I still face a cold stare
The essence of someone is constantly here

Can this be real
I can almost feel your touch
But you're not there
This, I need you in the end

Can this be real
Can this be love I'm feelin'
Can this be a dream that fades in morning light
Can this be real
Can this be love I'm feelin'
Are you what you seem
Will you be real tonight

Your face, my door
Haven't we both been here before

Whatever happens
We left some love along the way
But it ain't easy
We'll think of some words of love to say
And we'll smile oh, and be happy anyway
And we'll kiss before we say goodnight
And whatever happens
There'll be some times along the way
When it ain't easy
It just can't be sunshine on everyday
And we'll smile oh, and be a happy anyway
And we'll kiss before we say goodnight

I've got you in my life
Together we can reach a higher ground
We'll be alright
Just as long as you're around
I won't let you down

And whatever happens
There'll be some good times and some bad
But it ain't easy
Let's just remember the good times that we had
And we'll smile oh, and be happy anyway
And we'll kiss before we say good night
