Gotta get these thoughts off my mind
/gotta get them off my mind
/I need them off my mind...miiind

See they've just got me wondering why
/wondering why
/why why why...

Father, all I'm asking for is 4 minutes of your time
/to sing a few words that's been plaguing my mind
/see I don't have a problem with the way my life's been
going
/but I have thoughts and it's you I should be telling
/you've given me five children by two different women
/and I'll always love 'em both but I'm still searching
/'coz I haven't yet found my wife sent to me from
heaven
/and this is what I'm wondering...yeah/

is there a woman out there
/to truly love me and show me care
/I've tried two times but I'm still yet not a man in
love
/what good is the world to me
/if it ain't got a wife for me
/when all I really wanna be is just a man in love

listen, I don't live for myself but they don't
understand/
'coz you've gave me this gift to sing throughout the
land
/I know they're only women and I should show compassion
/but they never stick around and wait for that to
happen
/all they see is that I'm all around the world
/thinking every country I'd have a different girl
/sometimes I say to myself why is she doing this to me
/why's she tryna bring me misery

so is there a woman out there
/to truly love me and show me care
/I've tried two times but I'm still yet not a man in
love
/what good is the world to me
/if it ain't got a wife for me
/when all I really wanna be is just a man in love

Uh, I wonder why all my tries can never add up
/to say bye bye all those times, yo I had enough
/to see my pride go down the drain, and have to get up
/Lord made me a man and I'm worthy of love so
/
being ungrateful is the last thing I could ever think
of doing
/acheiving my dreams and giving my children a future is
all your doing
/but true love I'm searching for to be complete
/Father send me someone 'coz I'ma patiently wait

so is there a woman out there
/to truly love me and show me care
/I've tried two times but I'm still yet not a man in
love
/what good is the world to me
/if it ain't got a wife for me
/when all I really wanna be is just a man in love
/tell me Father

is there a woman out there
/to truly love me and show me care
/I've tried two times but I'm still yet not a man in
love
/what good is the world to me/if it ain't got a wife
for me
/when all I really wanna be is just a man in love
