Say, say, say
what you want
but don't play games
with my affection
Take, take, take
what you need
but don't leave me
with no direction
All alone
I sit home
by the phone
waiting for you
Baby baby
through the years
how can you
stand to hear
My pleading for you
dear?
You know I'm crying
ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Yeah yeah
Well go, go, go
where you want
but don't leave me
Here forever
and you, you, you
stay away
so long dear
I see you never
What can I do
girl to get through
to you?
'Cause I love you
Baby baby
standing here
baptised in
all my tears
Baby through the years
you know I'm crying
hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo
Ee-ee-ee
You got to say
say, say
You got to say
say, say
You never ever worry
and you never
shed a tear
You're saying that
my love ain't real
just look at my face
these tears ain't crying
You, you, you
can never say
that I'm not the one
who really loves you
I pray, pray, pray
every day
that you'll see things
girl, like I do
What can I do
girl to get through
to you?
'Cause I love you
(love you) baby (baby)
standing here
baptised in
all my tears
Baby through the years
you know I'm crying
hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo
Ee-ee-ee
Ee-ee-ee
Hoo-hoo-hoo
you got to say
say, say
Hoo-hoo-hoo
you got to say
say, say
Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo
Hoo-hoo-hoo
say, say, say
Hoo-hoo-hoo
say, say, say
Hoo-hoo-hoo
say, say, say
Hoo-hoo-hoo
say, say, say
Hoo-hoo-hoo
