Ohooooo
O why, o why
Yeah

My baby tell me that he's leaving today
Say him cyaa take the stress
My baby told me that he's going away
Say him bound fi find the best
I tell him I'm the best
That's all there
He say that he no longer care
Baby please, beg me haffi get you, just a second chance

Can we fall in love like we did before
Can I show you how much I adore you babe
Come make we go fall in love
Know you love the style, especially the rub-a-dub
Can we fall in love like we did before

Say love ain't perfect
So much that we've been through
Giving up ain't worth it
So come mek we get stronger in love
I tell you seh the loving that we got it never normally

Did sent from above
You filled up my heart with love, uh
Nobody ever touch me like you do-o-o
So just fall, let's forget it all
And baby make we fall in love once more

Can we fall in love like we did before
Can I show you how much I adore you babe
Come make we go fall in love
Know you love the style, especially the rub-a-dub
Can we fall in love like we did before

Happier times in this nostalgic state of mind
No haffi worry if another lady you giving your time
You gave me your heart I held it like a dime
Wine up, you giving me bad mind
Remember when we spoke of the thick
And thin we were preparing for these days
When we had to see comfort in each other's fate
In this love we got
Tell me what you're speaking of
Leaving what
No, I don't believe in that

Can we fall in love like we did before, baby
Can I show you how much I adore you babe
Come ya make we go fall in love
Know you love the style, oh yes you miss the rub-a-dub
Can we fall in love like we did baby
Can we fall in love like we did

Oh baby make we fall in love
Know you love the style, especially the rub-a-dub-a-dub-a-dub
Oh just make we fall
Oh ay
Oh baby make we fall





Oh baby make we stand up tall
