Say, say, say what you want
But don't play games with my affection
Take, take, take what you need
But don't leave me with no direction
All alone, I sit home by the phone
Waitin' for you, baby (baby)
Through the years, how can you stand to hear
My pleadin' for you, dear?
You know I'm cryin', ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
♪
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Yeah, yeah
♪
Now go, go, go where you want
But don't leave me here forever
You, you, you stay away
So long, girl, I see you never
What can I do, girl, to get through to you?
'Cause I love you, baby
Standin' here, baptized in all my tears
Baby, through the years
You know I'm cryin', ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
♪
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
All alone, I sit home by the phone
Waitin' for you, baby
Through the years, how can you stand to hear
My pleadin' for you, dear?
You know I'm cryin', ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Alright
