And mama told me if I want her. I gotta take it slow You just can’t tell her, you gotta find other ways to let her know But I don’t understand this game This is so new to me I wanna tell her I wanna take her in my arms Give her time and maybe one-day she’ll come around And see the love I am offering ‘Cause I don’t wanna live without the girl Heaven knows everyday I pray That someday she will belong to me ‘Cause I don’t wanna live without the girl She is my sunshine but her heart belongs to another man She looks right through me, she only ever though of us as friends But I’ll keep holding back my heart I will not let her see I gonna bide my time until the day she comes to me Give her time and maybe one-day she’ll come around And see the love I’m offering ‘Cause I don’t wanna live without the girl Heaven knows, everyday I pray That someday she will belong to me ‘Cause I don’t wanna live without the girl Give her time and maybe one-day she’ll come around And see the love I’m offering ‘Cause I don’t wanna live without the girl Heaven knows, everyday I pray That someday she will belong to me ‘Cause I don’t wanna live without the girl
