You gotta love me
You gotta love me
You love me baby

You gotta love me
You gotta love me
Gotta love baby
Je T'Aime, Je T'Aime, Je T'Aime, Je T'Aime
Je T'Aime, Je T'Aime, Je T'Aime, Je T'Aime
Je T'Aime, Je T'Aime, Je T'Aime, Je T'Aime
Je T'Aime, Je T'Aime, Je T'Aime, Je T'Aime baby

Don't be surprised, don't listen all the time
You ain't got not much to say
And don't be amazed, if you don't often get your way
It's much better my way

And don't be hurt if sometimes I like to flirt
Baby that's just my style
And don't ever doubt what my love is all about
You know you would drive me wild

'Coz it's got to be me you wanna see
And you better be sein' only me because
Je T'Aime, Je T'Aime, Je T'Aime, Je T'Aime, my baby
That means I love you baby

I-I-I love you, I-I-I love you
I-I-I love you, I-I-I love you

Just understand that you gonna have to be the man
That keeps me satisfied
And just be amused if sometimes you get abused
Some things are bigger than pride

And don't be ashamed, I need you to take the blame
I told the truth when I lied
I need someone strong even when I treat you wrong
You gotta pay for this ride

'Coz it's got to be me you wanna see
And you better be thinkin' only me because
Je T'Aime, Je T'Aime, Je T'Aime, Je T'Aime, my baby
That means I love you baby

I-I-I love you, I-I-I love you
I-I-I love you, I-I-I love you

I-I-I love you, I-I-I love you
I-I-I love you, I-I-I said I love you baby




Love you baby, oh, oh, love you boy
I-I-I love you, I-I-I said I love you baby
