LYRICS
I would love you anyway
Even if you can not stay
I think you are the one for me
Here is where you oughta be
I just want to satisfy ya
Cause your not mine I can't deny it
Don't you hear me talking baby
Love me now or I'll go crazy
Woowoo sweet thang
Don't you know you're my everything
Woowoo sweet thang
Don't you know you're my everything
(yes you are)

I wish you were my lover
But you act so undercover
I love you child my whole life long
Be it right or be it wrong
I'm only what you make me babe
Don't walk away don't be so shady
Only want your mind don't want your money
The words I say they may sound funny but

You are my heat
You are my fire
You make me weep with strong desire
I love you child my whole life long
Be it right or be it wrong
I just want to satisfy ya
Though your not mine I can't deny it
Don't you hear me talking baby
Love me now or I'll go crazy

Backround
You are my heat you are my fire
You not mine I can't deny ya
Don't you hear me talking baby
Love me now or I'll go crazy
