Lyrics
Baby says no, she can't let go this soon
Doesn't feel right, not tonight
Even though I gave her the stars and the moon
I really think I've got it bad this time around
Baby says yes but I must confess
It really doesn't seem to matter
'Cause I'd follow that girl all around the world
Even if I never had her
I really think I've got it bad this time
Really think I've got it bad this time
Really think I've got it bad this time around
Gonna show 'em what love can do
Gonna tell 'em 'bout me and you
Gonna show 'em what love can do when it's right
And this time, it's right
Love is the light that can shine so bright
But sometimes it fades away
Then you find one that can shine like the sun
She comes up for you every day
I really think I've got it bad this time
Really think I've got it bad this time
Really think I've got it bad this time around
Gonna show 'em what love can do
Gonna tell 'em 'bout me and you
Gonna show 'em what love can do when it's right
This time, it's right
Oh, when the girl is so far away
Can't think of all the right words to say
Now she's here and we are all together
Baby says no, she can't let go this soon
She says it doesn't feel right, not tonight
Even though I gave her the stars and the moon
I really think I've got it bad this time
Really think I've got it bad this time
Really think I've got it bad this time around
I really think I've got it bad this time around
Gonna show 'em what love can do
Gonna tell 'em 'bout me and you
Gonna show 'em what love can do when it's right
And this time, it's right
Gonna show 'em what love can do
Gonna tell 'em 'bout me and you
Well, I'm gonna show 'em what love can do when it's right
And this time, it's right
This time
I've got it bad this time
I've got it bad this time
I've got it bad
This time, this time, this time
I've got it bad this time
I've got it bad
This time, this time, this time
I've got it bad this time
I've got it bad this time
I've got it bad this time
I've got it bad this time
