Ooh, ooh (Craig David)
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
You know I'm the kind of guy that does 9 to 5
Working real hard cause that's the way I live my life
Back home just me and you girl all alone
With no one interrupting
Switch off the phone
But I could be that other guy
Who comes home late night after night and tells you lies
So why you trippin' out on me girl all the time
When every day it's only you that's on my mind ooh
Chorus:
Every time we take one step forward
You take 2 steps back
Everytime it's right you bring left back (oh, oh)
Girl you really ought to think about it
'Cause there's really no doubt about it
You know I've been there for you and that's the truth (x2)
You know you're the kind of girl that doesn't need to front
Keep it real, let me know just what you want
Sometimes you just don't know when to stop
You worry so much over nothing
You risk losing what you've got
Now can't you see there's no other girl
I think you're the most beautiful woman in this world, yeah
But you say I don't appreciate ya
And I don't know how to treat ya
We don't do the same things we did no more
Chorus
(Remember) it wasn't that long ago
You told me that you loved me so
Don't forget all the nights we shared
When you told me girl just how much you cared
(remember) you think I'm being led astray
But thats the way players play
I'm not that kind of man
Why can't you understand
Cos I want you to trust in me
Baby girl can't you see
You`re only gonna mess things up
You've done enough
Why can't you stop 'cause
You're gonna lose what's good for you
And thats the last thing you wanna do
Won't find another like me ooooh
Chorus
