Say, say, say what you want but don't play games with my affection
Take, take, take what you need but don't leave me with no direction
All alone I sit home by the phone waiting for you baby (baby)
Through the years how can you stand to hear my pleading for you dear?
You know I'm crying, ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
YeahNow go, go, go where you want but don't leave me here forever
You, you, you stay away so long, girl, I see you never
What can I do, girl, to get through to you
Cause I love you baby (baby)
Standing here baptized in all my tears, baby through the years
You know I'm crying, ooh ooh ooh ooh oohYou never ever worry and you never shed a tear
You're saying that my love ain't real
Just look at my face, these tears ain't dryingYou, you, you can never say that I'm not the one who really loves you
I pray, pray, pray every day that you'll see things, girl, like I do
What can I do, girl, to get through to you
Cause I love you (love you) baby (baby)
Standing here baptized in all my tears, baby through the years
You know I'm crying, ooh ooh ooh ooh oohOoh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, oohSay, say, say
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, oohOoh, ooh, ooh, say, say, say
Ooh, ooh, ooh, say, say, say
Ooh, ooh, ooh, say, say, say
Ooh, ooh, ooh, say, say, say
Ooh, ooh, ooh, say, say, say
