Hard that I'm gonna hear about you
Oh, about you baby I do (ooh)
Hard that I'm gonna be without you
Oh, without you baby I do
I stand to lose if I love you
You stand to gain
We stand for all who believe in vain (vain, vain)
Let's fall in love 'n' be glad to get it over
Oh, I'm over baby for you (ooh)
Call him and tell him that it's over
Oh, it's over baby it's through
I got the time that you left me
You got the keys to his car
We got the nerve to have got this far (far, far)
I'm tellin' you baby 'cos baby it's true
I'm gonna be the lover to fall for you
I'm tellin' you baby 'cos baby it's true
I'm gonna be the lover to fall for you
I'm tellin' you baby 'cos baby it's true
I'm gonna be the lover
Oh I'm gonna be the lover
(I'm gonna be the lover)
Heard you're the heroine of virtue
Oh, I heard it baby it's true (yeah)
Heard how your honesty had hurt you
You know I heard it baby it's true
I found a new hermeneutic
I found a new paradigm
I found a plan just to make you mine (mine, mine)
Now I know that I need you to be near me
Oh, near me baby you do (ooh)
Know that I need you girl to hear me
Come on and hear me baby I do (yeah)
Come back 'n' give me a reason
Come back 'n' take me away
Come back 'n' mean all the things you say (say, say)
I'm tellin' you baby 'cos baby it's true
I'm gonna be the lover to fall for you
I'm tellin' you baby 'cos baby who cares
There's gonna be a day when the rich get their's
I'm tellin' you baby 'cos baby it's true
I'm gonna be the lover
Oh I'm gonna be the lover
(I'm gonna be the lover)
Heard you're the heroine of virtue
Oh, I heard it baby it's true (yeah)
Heard how your honesty had hurt you
I know I heard you baby it's true (yeah)
Know that I need you to be near me
Oh, near me baby I do (yeah)
Know that I need you girl to hear me
Come on and hear me baby you do (oh)
Love 'n' be glad to get it over
Oh, it's over baby for you (yeah)
Hard that I'm gonna hear about you
Oh, about you baby I do (yeah)
