Tenelle Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Baby what you need...
Is a woman like me...
I'm tired of seein that...
frown u-pon your face...
Baby what you need...
Is the kind of security...
You know that you can find it in me...
I've been waitin round for you...
to notice me...
Won't you take my hand tonight...
so I can show you that my lovin is for real...
Take a chance on a girl like me...
take a chance on a girl like you...
See I can give you everything you need...




Oh loving right I'll show you tonight...
that I can be the only thing you need in your life...
