(Denise Pearson)

oh yeahhhhhhh
ooooooooh

you met me by surprise
I must admit I wasn't lookin' for love tonight
you came into my life
like a crashing lightning
in and out, through the other side
in other words, you tore me apart

I believe in love when I met you
but you scared me away
and never say goodbye
now take a look and tell me what you see
why'd you do this to me
when I got to say

[chorus:]
what about me, baby
you protected my soul
you made everything seemed right
wanted you and me for a lifetime
so think about it, baby
I gave you my heart
but when I try to get closer,
I have to give you my reasons why
oh, I gave you my reason

oh yeahhhhhh
unh, unh

you took me outta your love
you played everything to get me by your side
yeah, you really played it right
[nothing lasts] nothing lasts forever
can you believe in this
when you get to me that night?
why you go and tear me apart?

I believe in love when I met you, oh
but you scared me away
and never say goodbye

[chorus x2]

oh yeahhhhhhh
ohhhhhhhh
huh! oww!

I believe in love when I met you, oh
but you scared me away
and never say goodbye

ohhhhhhhhh, yeah, yeah, yeahhh
you made everything seemed right
wanted you and me for a lifetime
so think about it, baby
I gave you my heart
but when I try to get closer,
have to give you my reasons why

what about me, what about me
what about me, baby
what about me, what about me
ohhhhhhh
[I gave you my heart when I try to get closer]
don't let go-o-o-o
oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, what about me
oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, what about me
oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
what about me, baby
