Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sit right down and talk to me
About how you want to be
You oughta be with me
Yeah, you oughta be with me
[Chorus]
Thinking about what people do
Talking about how I love you
Thinking there's nothing to what they say
You're gonna be with me anyway, yeah
[Verse 2]
They don't want to see us do
All of the things we want to
You oughta be with me
Yeah, you oughta be with me
[Chorus]
Oh, you don't have to waste my time
If you want to be a friend of mine
You can leave me now and walk away
And turn your back for another day
[Bridge]
Oh, baby
Yeah
Say, you
[Verse 3]
Oughta be the kind of girl
That can brighten this old world
And it's hard to see why you and me
Can't be together happily
[Chorus]
I'm tryin' to realize
You being with some other guy
I don't know the reason why
You oughta be with me until I die
[Chorus]
Yeah, you oughta be with me until I die
I don't want to waste my time
If you want to be a friend of mine
Wanna hold you tight, love you right
Put good feelin' in your night
