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
Now, go, go, go where you want
But don't leave me here forever
You, you, you stay away
So long, girl, I see you never
What can I do, girl, to get through to you?
'Cause I love you, baby (baby)
Standing here, baptized in all my tears
Baby, through the years, you know I'm crying
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
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 drying
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, baptized in all my tears
Baby, through the years, you know I'm crying
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
You got to say, say, say
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
You got to say, say, say
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Just say, say, say
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Say, say, say
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Say, say, say
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Say, say, say
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Say, say, say
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Say, say, say
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Say, say, say
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Say, say, say
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Say, say, say
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Say, say, say
Say, say, say
