E. Y. C.

Hey baby, I've been thinkin' about us
Cause lately, seems like something's on your mind
So darling, in me you can trust
Sometimes the words are hard to find

But I've got to tell you
I saw you with another
Not just any man
But he was my friend
And now I know why you wouldn't look me in the eye
So when I tell you this don't be surprised

*
Today I took you out my black book
I'm not a fool you see, how you were treating me
I took you out my black book
We had it going on but now the feeling's gone
I took you out my black book
Black book, bye bye baby
I took you out my black book

So how ya feelin'? That's right
You were wrong. Don't even bother
To ask cause I'm gone

So baby, don't try to change
My view, because I saw the two of you
But that's okay, I'll just turn the page
On you, cause that's what you made me do

Bridge:
You been lying, sneaking, you been cheating all this time
I don't need you girl, cause a real woman I will find
Who won't play these games, games, games, games, games
So when I tell you this, don't be surprised

(* Repeat 2 times)

You been lying, sneaking, you been cheating all this time
I don't need you girl
Cause a real woman I will find
Who won't play these games, games, games, games, games
So when I tell you this, don't be surprised

(* Repeat

Why can't we turn back the hands of time
Holdin' on the dreams inside
And I won't let you down, look into my eyes
What do you see, honest and sincerely, darlin'
Put your trust in me

*
Baby give me one more chance to prove my love
It will last forever
Baby give me one more chance to prove how much
Just how much I love you

Ooo why must we run down the reasons why
And we know that our love will decide
Our true love will survive

(* Repeat 2 times)

I'm missin' you girl
I love you more than words can say
I think about you all night and day
That's all I'm tryin' to say
I feel you in my heart
I'm down on my knees
Beggin' please please please

So baby, I was wrong and all I'm asking for is just one more chance

(* Repeat and fade out

I like this groove (ah yeah, ay yeah)
Yeah, I like this groove
This jame here is for the ladies
From all us fellas, E.Y.C.
That's the way you work it
So there it is, yo, smooth it out

Tell me baby is it me that's always on your mind
Anticipating on this night that we are gonna find
ROMANCE
Let's take a chance
To enhance a situation, this is not infatuation

*
The way you work it baby
Tonight is the night for you and me
The way you work it momma
Tonight we're going round in circles
The way you work it baby
Tonight we're gonna have to see

Baby on this special night, there's no reason to hide
The way you work it girl, I really want to be inside

To enhance a situation, this is not infatuation

Why, 'cause that's the way I am

Don't push me to the limits
Or I will have to get up in it
