I Need Your Love
Infatuation Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey baby
I just don't know how to approach you
With the right words
It's like uh
Ever since the day I met you
You've been on my mind
I just want to say
I want to be your lover
If you let me
If you let me
I want to make you happy
Baby let me
Baby let me

Girl you know that your the one
To make me feel like I'm on fire
But you say that were just solely friends
But don't you tell that lie to me
When you know that I'm the only one
To love you baby like I do
So girl it shouldn't be so hard to see

I want to be your lover
If you let me
If you let me
I want to make you happy
Baby let me
Baby let me

Girl why don't you tell the truth
You know you need my loving too
So get real and tell me how you feel
There's no need for you to feel
When you know that I'm the only one
To love you baby like I do
So girl it shouldn't be so hard to see

I need your love
I need your love
Ooh yeah
Hey baby yeah

I want to be your lover
If you let me
If you let me
I want to be your lover
If you let me
If you let me

I want to be
I want to be
I want to be
Your lover

I want to be
I want to be
I want to be
Your lover
Hey baby

I want to be
I want to be
I want to be
Your lover

I want to be your lover
If you let me
If you let me
I want to be your lover




If you let me
If you let me
