She gives me smiles when I have frowns
She holds out her hand when I am down
She already knows what she wants
She already knows she loves someone

But I just tell her that I'm not the one she needs
She needs someone who knows how to make her see
That there's a world out there that's waiting for her
And it is cruel to keep her from my love like a fool

She's makin' plans while I'm in bed
She says I love you when I least expect it
She hold it together through stormy weather, weather
But she never asks do you love me back

But I just tell her that I'm not the one she needs
She needs someone who knows how to make her see
That there's a world out there that's waiting for her
And it's cruel to keep her from my love like a fool

Well, I wish I could love like she does
But I feel like a fool who plays it cool
When baby, I want you

She's working late, that's how she plays
But I am at home, I'm feeling stray all the day
I hear the door unlock, the dogs don't even bark
Then in my angel walks and my heart begins to talk

And that's when I tell her that I am the one she needs
I am the one who knows how to make her see
That there's a man at home who's waiting on her
And he's been cruel for keeping back his love like a fool

Well, then I tell her I am the one she needs
I am the one who knows how to make her see
That there's a man at home, hell, he's waiting on her
And he's been cruel for keeping back his love like a fool
