La Toya Jackson - Giving You Up lyrics

rate me

Hello there, oh how I really tried talkin' to you

I came over there to catch your eye

'Cause you, you're the girl who listens

Into everything I'm talkin' 'bout

I've been waitin' now that we're here

To make some love and advance

Find a place where we can settle down

It's the first time, you know we just met

for the first time, love

Come on over here and speak to me

I came this far to be with you

I'd like for you to know the truth

To have you with me every day

I'll change my life in every way

[Chorus:]

I can't wait, oh, giving you up

Give you up, give you up

(I need your lovin' here with me tonight)

(I won't) oh, giving you up

Give you up, give you up

(I'll guarantee you I can make things right)

(I won't)

I'm not asking you, darlin', to give me up

I wouldn't do that to you

Why can't we wait 'till we go away

We can reach inside and find our hearts

Hey, you know you're the first

To go and follow me in here

I can't afford to give this up and let you down

No, girl

I'll tell you just the way I feel

I'm not the kind who lies to tease around

I need you love with me tonight

I'll make it right for you in every way

[Chorus/add lib:]

I can't wait, oh, giving you up

Give you up, give you up

(I need your lovin' here with me tonight)

(I won't) oh, giving you up

Give you up, give you up

(I'll guarantee you I can make things right)

(I won't)
