Yeah, I want to talk to you for a little bit And I brought my girl Faith Evans along for the ride I never thought about it, love what I'd do without it Heartaches that I have seen before I learned enough about it, what I could do without And I made the vow that I would change No, I just couldn't see what I needed from me But all these things happened before And if I fall in love again, he'll be more than just a friend He'll hold me strong He'll be a friend, love, compassion Everything I want in life Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me, baby See, I would give my love any way I could give But these ain't always what they seem I tell you, girl, I've been there My heart would break every day and every night I would cry But that was so long ago No, I just couldn't see what I needed from me But all these things happened before And if I fall in love again, he'll be more than just a friend He'll hold me strong He'll be a friend, love, compassion Everything I want in life Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me, baby See, I couldn't work it out I just couldn't figure it out I got what you might need from me More than I had to give The things that I'm meant to be Could put a big strain on your love But now it's so obvious Cause I took a step back from your love No, I just couldn't see what I needed from me But all these things happened before And if I fall in love again, he'll be more than just a friend He'll hold me strong He'll be a friend, love, compassion Everything I want in life Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me, baby *
