[Verse 1]
My heart is yours
I'm at your command
Girl I need you here beside me
Just to love and understand
'Cause at night (At night)
When I lay down in my bed (Lay down in my bed)
Girl I reach for you but you're never there
Sometimes I find it hard to control this fire burning
Burning deep down in my soul
[Chorus]
To be true
It such a hard thing to do
Especially when there's so many girls
Out there looking at you
And I'm tryna keep my mind on you
[Verse 2]
My life is yours
Girl I give it you
But I don't like giving
I can't stand giving something that you can't use
Girl I'm confused (Confused)
I don't know which way to go (Don't know where to go)
Stay or leave, which one will hurt me morе (Will hurt me more)
I need someonе to have and hold
'Cause when my love come down
Girl you ain't no where around
[Chorus]
To be true, to be true
It such a hard thing to do
Especially when there's so many girls
Out there looking at you
To be true
It such a hard thing to do
Especially when there's so many pretty girls
Making eyes at you
To be true
[Interlude]
You know I wish there was some I way
I can make you understand
Swear I love you
But I swear baby
You just don't leave me no choice
You know it's been said
Absence makes the hard grow fonder
But leave me out here all alone
Like this here
I like you to know this here
Believe me, too much absence
Gonna make the man wonder
[Chorus]
To be true
It's real hard
It such a hard thing to do
Especially when there's so many pretty girls
Out there looking at you
And I'm tryna keep my mind on you
