Ooh...wee...ooh...

Baby, baby, you don't understand
How much I love you, baby
How much I want to be
Your only man, oh, baby, my baby, my baby

And baby, baby, baby, you don't have to go
Stay a little while longer, baby
I want to talk to you
Just a little more

I see the tears in your eyes about to fall
You are wondering if I'm for real
Oh, but if you cry, I wonder why you cry
I tell you no lie, this is how I feel

You need to, baby, I'm for real
So real, baby, baby, baby, baby, girl

And baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, you don't have to go
Stay a little while longer, baby, hold me, baby, love me, baby, yeah, yeah, yeah
This is how I feel about your love, yeah
But if you cry, I wonder why you cry
I tell you, tell you no lie, this is how I feel
Oh, now, baby, now, baby, now, baby, yeah

Baby, I'm for real (I'm for real)
You know (I'm for real)
You know, you know, you know, you know, you know

(Baby, I'm for real)
You know I'm not lyin' to you, baby
I would never, never tell you a lie about my love
(Baby, I'm for real)
I'm so for real, I'm so for real, I'm, I'm real, I'm real

But if you wanna know the truth about it
Girl, I just can't live without it
And that's why I'm professin' my love to you, baby
So that I can live my whole life with you

And baby, baby, baby
Never, never, never gonna leave you, baby
No, no, no, no, no, no, no

Oh, baby, I'm for real
(Baby, I'm for real)
Wipe the tears from your eyes
Now you won't have to cry, no

(Baby, I'm for real)
And darling, hey, hey, baby

Take to the sky on a natural high
Lovin' you more till the die I die
Take to the sky on a natural high
Lovin' you, kissin' you, tellin' you why

(Baby, I'm for real)
Oh, you need to know, you need to know, oh
Baby, I'm for real

(Baby, I'm for real)
Wipe the tears from your eyes
Now you won't have to cry, no, no

Ooh...yeah
