I Want You Back / ABC / The Love You Save (Live)

When I had you to myself, I didn't want you around

Those pretty faces always made you stand out in a crowd

But someone picked you from the bunch, one glance was all it took

Now it's much too late for me to take a second look

Oh, baby, give me one more chance

(To show you that I love you)

Won't you please let me (back in your heart)?

Oh, darlin', I was blind to let you go

(To let you go, baby)

But now, since I see you

(I want you back)

Yes, I do now

(I want you back)

Ooh, ooh, baby

(ABC) Everybody clap your hands, come on (1, 2, 3)

(Do-re-mi, ABC, that's how easy love can be)

You went to school to learn, girl

Things you never, never knew before

Like "I" before "E" except after "C"

And why 2 plus 2 makes 4

I'm gonna teach you

(Teach you, teach you)

All about love, girl

(All about love)

Sit yourself down and take a seat

All you gotta do is repeat after me

ABC

Easy as 1, 2, 3

As simple as, do-re-mi

ABC, that's how easy love can be

Doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo

Stop! You'd better save it

Stop, stop, stop, you'd better save it, woo

When we played tag in grade school

You wanted to be It

But chasing boys was just a fad

You crossed your heart you'd quit

When we grew up you traded

Your promise for my ring

Now just like back to grade school

You're doing the same old thing

Stop! The love you save may be your own

Darling, take it slow

Or some day you'll be all alone

Stop the love you save may be your own

Darling, look both ways before you cross me

You're headed for the danger zone

Slow down

Slow down

Slow down

Slow down

S is for "Save it"

T is for "Take it slow"

O is for "Oh, no!"

P is for "Please, please, don't go!"

The love you save may be your own

Some day you may be all alone

Stop it

Save it, mama

Stop it, baby

Slow down

Slow down

Stop!

Thank you
