Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Gimme yo love, yo love
Gimme yo love, yo love
Gimme yo love, yo love
One time for me, baby

Gimme yo love, yo love
Gimme yo love, yo love
Gimme yo love, yo love
Gimme yo love, yo love

Listen, I was born to love you
That's the way it's got to be and that's a fact
I just want to please you
Everywhere I want to be is where you're at

So if you're ready for somebody who can satisfy your needs
Girl, I promise you that I'm the one to do
I won't rest until I have you layin' right here next to me
I know I can make your dreams come true

If you gimme yo love, gimme yo love
Gimme yo love, gimme yo love
Gimme yo love, gimme yo love
Gimme yo love

I know just where to kiss you
Can you think of all the possibilities?
I need to know everything about you
There's a heart inside you burnin' to be free

So if you're ready for somebody who can satisfy your needs
Girl, I promise you that I'm the one to do
Baby, I won't rest until I have you right here next to me
'Cause I know I can make your dreams come true

If you gimme yo love, gimme yo love
Gimme yo love, gimme yo love
Gimme yo love, gimme yo love
Gimme yo love

I know we all make mistakes
But if you give your heart I will never let it break
So baby, take my hand, come with me to paradise
I've been waitin' all my life for you to say that you'll be mine

So gimme yo love, oh babe, gimme yo love
Gimme yo love, gimme yo love
Gimme yo love, gimme yo love
Gimme yo love, gimme yo love
Gimme yo love

Early in the mornin'
Late in the evenin', give it to me




I can handle what you got
Just give it to me
