I’ ve been looking everywhere for you
Since the day we met
I’ ve never been my old self oh hoo
You don’ t have to believe in everything
I say right now
Cause to you I’ m just another man
Until I prove myself to be
Worthy of your love you see
I’ m not the kind of guy
That will bring you
Flowers everyday
I’ m not the kind of guy
That will tell you
I love you in many fancy ways
Oh girl !!!
I’ ve got to tell you this
I love you !
I want you
I love you !
I want you
Oh hoo hoo
Chorus:
I’ m your Romeo
Could you be my Juliet
I know what women want
I’ ve been around long enough
To understand it
But I want you to tell me
How to love you
‘Cause I want to love you
The way you wanna be loved
It is better to have loved & lost
Than never to have loved at all
I’ m not the kind of guy
That will bring you
Flowers everyday
I’ m not the kind of guy
That will tell you
I love you in many fancy ways
But my girl
I’ ve got to tell you this
I love you !
I want you
I love you !
I want you
I think I’ ll prove myself
To be worthy of your love
