Woman I want for real to make you know
That I will always draw near to you
But me know me not a fear to you (e-eh!)
Me stand up like a man (okay!) and I’ll be there because I care for you
Long time me tellin‘ no other girl I compare to you
Woman if you leave me now
I'm gonna shed a lot of tears for you (uuh…)
You want to breathe (yo-yo) and still you’re not exhalin' (uuh…)
Say you want to leave (come on girl yo!) cos this relationship’s failin’ (uuh..)

Girl I want to know why you're bailin' ship yo! (uuh…)
