1,2,3

After the hoping and the praying and the wishing
Girl your right here in my face
I've never been the one to bite my tongue (NOO)
But I have not one word to say
I'm mesmerized by your sexy eyes
And your soft and lovely skin
I want this fiasco to end
So baby we cant start all over again

Listen
I wanna be able (I wanna be able to love you)
(Oh I)I wanna be able (and let me be the one to please you)
(Oh I) As sure as the sun shines all over the earth
Your one of Gods most precious works
See I'm a man and we make mistakes
But plesae dont take your love away (Oh I)

CHROUS:
Dont take your love away (Dont take)
Baby dont take your love away from me
I need you girl
Dont take your love away
Dont take your love away
Dont take your love away
(Dont take) Baby dont take your love away from me
I need you girl
Dont take your love away

Momma said dont put your hands in the cookie jar
She said son, have control
She said everything thats sweet aint good for you(Noo)
(Thats what she said)
Everything that glitters aint gold
And now that your gone
I realize(Yes I do) I lost my soul
And I dont wanna pass the torch
Baby can you give me one more....chance

I wanna be able
(Able to do everything I didnt do before for you baby)
I wanna be able
(Listen I wanna love you O O O Over again)
And I hold myself together to stay strong
Baby you've been gone to long
See I'm a man and we make mistakes
So baby baby baby dont take your love away

Dont take your love away
Baby dont take your love away from me
I need you girl
Dont take your love away
Dont take your love away
Dont take your love away
Baby dont take your love away from me
I need you girl
Dont take your love away

See girl I know that I hurt you so
With all of those girls that were in my world
Stacey and Kim, damn all of them
Girl I wanna give you everything that I am
I know your tired of my games
Tired of my lies
Baby this time I promise it'll be alright
No more will you be led astray
Baby listen to the words that I say

Dont take your love away
Baby dont take your love away from me
I need you girl
Dont take your love away
Dont take your love away
Dont take your love away
Baby dont take your love away from me
I need you girl
Dont take your love away
