What Do I Have To Do

[Chorus]
What do I have to do for you, ooh baby
Why can't you see how much you mean to me, ooh baby
What do I have to do to get next to you, girl
Say, what do I have to do to get next to you, girl

[Verse 1]
Do I have to put my emotions on display
For everyone to see
Though it shouldn't be that hard to tell, no
What's going on inside of me
I just wanna hug you and love you and take you
And make you believe in this man
Girl, I've wined you and dined you
Put all things behind you
And I just don't understand
Why it's taking so long
Are you leading me on?

[Chorus]
What do I have to do to get next to you, girl
Yes, what do I have to do to get next to you, girl

[Verse 2]
Do I have to do some impossible task, hey baby
That you think no one else can do
Hey, just lay it on the line
'Cause in my frame of mind
Girl you know that I'd just
Turn the world around for you
I just wanna hug you and love you and take you
And make you believe in this man
Girl, I've wined you and dined you
Put all things behind you
And I just don't understand
Say why it's taking so long
Are you leading me on?

[Chorus]
What do I have to do to get next to you, girl
Say, what do I have to do to get next to you, girl
Hey, baby child... what do I have to do to get next to you
I just wanna, just wanna...
