Lately I've been tryin'
To have a word or two
Waitin' for a moment
To get to youAs I've been restrainin'
What I need to say
Silence gets misunderstood
Some wayNow it's time to sit right down
And make my point of view
Otherwise, oh, love of mine
I'll fall away from youWoman, I'm a singer
That's all I'll ever be
Give n' take n' don't complicate
The simple harmonies
There's nothing I need from you
That you should keep from me
Nothing that you hold
Sets you freeAnd all I have, these simple words
That I will give to you
He's the fool who won't reach out
And tries to play it coolI'm cryin'
Baby, I'm cryin'
And it feels like I'm dyin'
'Cause I can't get next to youI'm cryin'
Baby, I'm cryin'
And it feels like I'm dyin'
'Cause I can't get next to you
Darlin', come on and hold me
I need a one and only
Baby, hear me when I sayI'm cryin'
Baby, I'm cryin'
And it feels like I'm dyin'
'Cause I can't get next to youI'm cryin'
Baby, I'm cryin'
And it feels like I'm dyin'
'Cause I can't get next to you
