I think I know why I need ya
I want to go wherever you go
Whatever you say I believe ya
You make me helpless
Can't stand the times when you are gone (no, I can't)
I just can't help it, uh-oh
A love Jones, oh-oh-oh, ooh
And you it's you it's you it's you
It's you before and after
What can I do can I do can I do
Nothing else seems to matter
You make me helpless
Can't stand the times when you are gone (no, I can't)

And you got a kiss that's magic
Ain't no way to tell ya what you're worth
All I know I got to have it (oh my goodness)
