Hey, babe, it's been a long while
Baby, baby, been a mighty long time
I watched you, even though you would not see, baby
(Check it)
Glad to see that you're still so fine
And I remember you back when
Girl, you blew my mind
And I saw you, even though you would not see
Lady, yeah, yeah, yeah, baby, baby
Be as you are, girl, it's okay with me
You're such a star
Maybe one day you'll see that whatever you are
I'm just hoping you'll be as my girl, girl
Oh, I need to be back, back by your side
Sugar, back, way back when kissing was a crime
I miss you and I know you miss me
Baby, oh, baby, baby, baby
Be as you are, girl, it's okay with me
You're such a star
Maybe one day you'll see that whatever you are
I'm just hoping you'll be as my girl, girl
Baby girl, showing off causing me laughter
You're my world, paradise from disaster
(My world)
As precious as a pearl
How about you and me ever after as my girl?
Be as you are, girl, it's okay with me
You're such a star
Maybe one day you'll see that whatever you are
I'm just hoping you'll be as my girl, girl
