I'm the One
I been here, I been round
I've been trying to put you down, but cha'
Don't know how to treat a woman like me
I've been up, I've been down
I've been thrown on the ground, but you don't
Have to slap my face, 'cause that's not
The way to do what you want me to do
You've gotta love me,
You've got to give it to me
You've got to hold me
You've got to make everything alright
You've got to show me that you need me
Even when it huts a little
Because I'm the one that you need
I've been lost, I've been found
I've been all over town and I don't have
To take this mess no more
You got until midnight tonight, to set this
Love thang right
or I don't wanna see your
Face at my door
So don't cha lie, I told you why
You don't have to say goodbye
'Cause I'm the one that you need
It's true that one and one is two
But not just anyone will do
I'd like to spend my life with you
But first I gotta make you see
I'm the one that you need
I'm the only one that you need
I'm the one, I'm the one, I'm the only one
I don't want to hear the bells
I don't want to hear the bells strike twelve
One! Used to be so much fun
Two! Tell me what are we going to do
Three! Baby whatever happen to you and me
Four! Got to be you knocking' at my door
So don't you lie, I told you why
You don't have to say goodbye
So don't you lie, I told you why
You don't have to say goodbye
'Cause I'm the one that you need
I've been trying to put you down, but cha'
Don't know how to treat a woman like me
I've been up, I've been down
I've been thrown on the ground, but you don't
Have to slap my face, 'cause that's not
The way to do what you want me to do
You've gotta love me,
You've got to give it to me
You've got to hold me
You've got to make everything alright
You've got to show me that you need me
Even when it huts a little
Because I'm the one that you need
I've been lost, I've been found
I've been all over town and I don't have
To take this mess no more
You got until midnight tonight, to set this
Love thang right
or I don't wanna see your
Face at my door
So don't cha lie, I told you why
You don't have to say goodbye
'Cause I'm the one that you need
It's true that one and one is two
But not just anyone will do
I'd like to spend my life with you
But first I gotta make you see
I'm the one that you need
I'm the only one that you need
I'm the one, I'm the one, I'm the only one
I don't want to hear the bells
I don't want to hear the bells strike twelve
One! Used to be so much fun

Four! Got to be you knocking' at my door
So don't you lie, I told you why
You don't have to say goodbye
So don't you lie, I told you why
You don't have to say goodbye
'Cause I'm the one that you need
