The Many Ways

Oh, baby
My lady, oh, oh, yeah, oh-oh
You like what you're hearin' baby?

You must have just moved around the way right
I see all the fellas have been pressing you for your number
I'd like to get to know you, so um
Maybe we can spend some time and talk on the phone or something

I can think of many ways to say "I love you"
And with those many ways there comes a time
For me to say I'll put no girl before you
So pretty lady, make up your mind
