(Sylvester / Clarke)
Picked up the phone called there's no one at home
You said you'd be there for my call
Did I do right by staying home tonight
All I know is I'm so alone
You made a date said you wouldn't be late
That's when my hopes started to rise
I didn't really know ya You said "I wanna show ya"
And I believed that look in your eyes
[Chorus:]
Well you gotta give me life
You gave me life
You gotta give me life
With that look in your eyes
[Chorus]
Went out on the street Just a chance we might meet
The chance well it came to order
I saw you standing there baby without a care
Giving the same line to a guy on the corner
Don't know your name
Don't know your game
It's such a shame Oh yeah
[Repeat]
[Chorus]
