Girl, you're welcome...stop on by
You know I'll be here, baby
To dry your eyes, to dry your eyes
But I'm gettin' tired of being that second guy
Don't you be no fool, baby
You 'bout to lose your old standby

Is it the material things that he's givin'
Can you truly say that you're happy livin'
True love, I'm the one that's giving
I'm tryin' to keep from hurtin' your feelings
Oh, baby, stop on, stop on, stop on by

Girl, you're welcome, stop on by
One day, one day, one day one day, one day
I might even want to make you cry
Don't take for granted
I'll always be there
‘Cause there's some woman somewhere
That could truly need me (think about it, baby)

Is it the material things that the man is givin'
Can you truly say that you're happy livin'
True love, I'm the one that's giving
I'm tryin' to keep from hurtin' your feelings
Oh , stop on, stop on, stop by, stop on by

Girl, you're welcome...stop on by
You know I'll be here, baby
To dry your eyes, to dry your eyes
But I'm gettin' tired of being that second guy
Don't you be no fool, baby
You 'bout to lose your old standby

Is it the material things that he's givin'
Can you truly say that you're happy livin'
True love, I'm the one that's giving
I'm tryin' to keep from hurtin' your feelings
Oh, baby, stop on, stop on, stop on by

Girl, you're welcome, stop on by
One day, one day, one day one day, one day
I might even want to make you cry
Don't take for granted
I'll always be there
‘Cause there's some woman somewhere
That could truly need me (think about it, baby)

Is it the material things that the man is givin'

Fellas I wonder would you mind if I talked to ya for a minute. You know, sometimes we have the tendency, or should I say we forget, what a woman needs every now and then. That is, if you wanna keep your thing together.
Listen to me now

Do the things that keeps the smile on her face
Say the things that make her feel better everyday
Then you got to stay on your Ps and Qs
If you don't, the woman you can easily lose

Whoa, oh, I had a love and I lost her
And no one can help me share the pain that she caused me
Oh, a woman's gotta have it
I believe, she's gotta know that she's needed around
When you kiss her, you gotta make her feel it
Every time boy,
She wants to know that she's not walkin' on shaky ground

Oh, yeah
Well, think it over
Think it over, my brother
Don't take for granted the smile on her face
Check a little bit closer, you might find a tear trace
Maybe the girl might never say a mumbling word
But you gotta make sure that her voice is heard

Whoa, oh, I had a love and I lost her
And no one can help me share the pain that she caused me
Oh, a woman's gotta have it
I believe, she's gotta know that she's needed around
When you kiss her, you gotta make her feel it
Every time boy
She wants to know that she's not walkin' on shaky ground

So if you've got a love
And you wanna keep her
You got to give her what she wants when she wants it
Where she wants it
And how she wants it
Every doggone time she feels she needs it
What I'm tryin' to say
A woman gotta have it
Hey, hey, hey, a woman gotta have it

If I told you, told you, told you
You were wrong
You get mad and say leave me alone

So I waited, waited, waited
To let you see
The women you love, is in love with me

And she's so tired of being left alone
I know we're friends
But sometimes when love begins
That's when friendship ends
That's when friendship ends

I never, never, never
Thought it would be this way
You left her alone both night and day

When you were gone
Long gone such a long time
I was always there to keep her from crying

She was so tired of being left alone
I know we're friends
But sometimes when love begins
That's when friendship ends

So why don't you
Just shake my hand and walk away like a man

Help me somebody, help me somebody

Now the girl, the girl, the girl
Means a world to me
Gonna make score
She gets what she need

But she ask me for love
I couldn't turn around
When she needed your love
You were never around

She was so tired of being left alone
I know we're friends
But sometimes when love begins
That's when friendship ends
I say, ?That's when friendship ends?

Help me somebody, somebody
Oh, somebody, somebody, somewhere
Somebody, somewhere

It's too late
Is it too late?
Oh love, oh love
Love, oh love, love

Love will turn you against your own mother
And sometimes, sometimes
It can turn you all the way around

Turn you against your sister
Turn you against your sister or brother
Yes it can now

So my friend, my friend
This is it, that's got to end
As I think, as I think
I've got a love that's 'bout to begin

I couldn't be this way now no, no, no
Took me by surprise

I can't help myself
No, I can't help myself no, no
Long time, long time, long time

Verse 1ohh...sweet love yeah [yeah]
I didn’t mean it when I said
I didn’t love you so
I should have held on tight
I never should have let you go
I didn’t know nothing,
I was stupid, I was foolish
I was lying to myself
I couldn’t have fathomed
I would ever be without your love
Never imagined I’d be sitting
Here beside myself
Guess I didn’t know you
Guess I didn’t know me
But I thought I knew everything
I never felt

Pre-Chorus 1
The feeling that I’m feeling
Now that I don’t hear your voice
Or have your touch and kiss your lips
Cause I don’t have a choice
Oh what I wouldn’t give
To have you lying by my side
Right here cause baby

Chorus 1
When you left I lost a part of me
It’s still so hard to believe
Come back baby please cause
We belong together
Who else am I gonna lean on when times get rough
Who’s gonna talk to me on the phone
Till the sun comes up
Who’s gonna take your place
There ain’t nobody better
Oh baby baby
We belong together

Verse 2
I can’t sleep at night
When you are on my mind
Bobby Womack’s on the radio
Singing to me “If You Think You’re Lonely Now”
Wait a minute this is too deep [too deep]
I gotta change the station
So I turn the dial tryin’ to catch a break
And then I hear Babyface
“I Only Think Of You” and it’s breakin’ my heart
I’m tryin’ to keep it together but I’m falling apart

Pre-Chorus 2
I’m feeling all out of my element
Throwing things, crying tryin’
To figure out where the hell I went wrong
The pain reflected in this song
Ain’t even half of what I’m feeling inside
I need you, need you back in my life baby

Chorus 2
When you left I lost a part of me
It’s still so hard to believe
Come back baby please cause
We belong together
Who else am I gonna lean on when times get rough
Who’s gonna talk to me on the phone
Till the sun comes up
Who’s gonna take your place
There ain’t nobody better
Oh baby baby
We belong together baby

Outro
When you left I lost a part of me
It’s still so hard to believe
Come back baby please cause
We belong together
Who am I gonna lean on when times get rough
Who’s gonna talk to me till the sun comes up
Who’s gonna take your place
There ain’t nobody better
Oh baby baby
We belong together
