lyrics

If I got you, the world could end
I wouldn't care
If I got you baby
If I got you
We gon make a whole lotta motherf*ckers mad, that it ain't fair
If I got you baby
You're such a pretty young thing, make the whole world stare
The way you make me feel, ima stay right here
You're such a smooth criminal
You're such a smooth criminal


I ain't 'bout the games, I don't play that
If you want love, won't you say that
Tell me that you mean what you say right now
Tell me that you mean what you say

Tell me you want me (aw babe)
I could be everything you need (aw baby won't you)
Tell me, tell me (aw baby won't you)
Tell me, tell me (aw babe)
Tell me how to turn you on (aw babe)
We could do it all night long (aw baby won't you)
Tell me, tell me (aw baby won't you)
Tell me, tell me (aw babe)

I just wanna give you my best
Give it to you 'till there ain't none left
Darling we can take it, step by, step by, step by step
I'm tryna be here for more than just a moment, moment
Wanna be by your side in the morning
Smooth operator, won't you call me?
When can I see you again? (baby)


I ain't 'bout the games, I don't play that
If you want love, won't you say that
Tell me that you mean what you say right now
Tell me that you mean what you say

Tell me you want me (aw babe)
I could be everything you need (aw baby won't you)
Tell me, tell me (aw baby won't you)
Tell me, tell me (aw babe)
Tell me how to turn you on (aw babe)
We could do it all night long (aw baby won't you)
Tell me, tell me (aw baby won't you)
Tell me, tell me (aw babe)

Love, when you go
Ooo it hurts me so
I don't ever want to be without you
It's killing me softly
It's hard to breathe when you're gone
I think, I think I'm in love

Tell me you want me (aw babe)
I could be everything you need (aw baby won't you)
Tell me, tell me (aw baby won't you)
Tell me, tell me (aw babe)
Tell me how to turn you on (aw babe)
We could do it all night long (aw baby won't you)
Tell me, tell me (aw baby won't you)
Tell me, tell me (aw babe)
