Hey Ahhh I tried and tried and tried for such a long time 
To talk that lady down 
I mean a I worked so hard 
I used a best plan 
But I still 
I haven't got her off the ground 
So I told her 
Alright baby 
I'll go away 
And I won't bother you no more 
But she said 
No, no, no, don't you stay 
What you want to go running from me for? 
Oh then she smiled and she looked at him 
Said oh, oh baby, don't you understand how 
If you want my love (hey), all you gotta do is say it 
If you want my love (yeah), all you gotta do is say it 
If you want my love (oh yeah), all you gotta do is say it 
If you want my love, all you gotta do is say it 
I said made me, made me, made me feel like such a fool 
To have carried on like that 
I mean a I thought the disco down was oh so cool 
But I learned that's only rumour and not a fact 
She said come on out 
I say what you mean? 
What you really want to do? 
You don't need no battle plan 
No blood or skin 
Tell me am 
I getting through to you? 
Oh then she smiled and she took my hand 
Said oh, oh baby don't you understand that 
If you want my love (yeah yeah), all you gotta do is say it 
If you want my love (hey), all you gotta do is say it 
If you want my love (get it through with me), all you gotta do is say it 
If you want my love (come on now), all you gotta do is say it 
Ooh I tell the story in the end 
I'm gonna pay 
For all the wrong 
I've done 
All the times it even ticks me and 
I go astray 
But you know we've all got to have our fun 
I took her advice 
Cut the job and let it out 
She said I do believe you've got it right 
I'll take you home and show you what it's all about (hoo hoo whoah) 
It's gonna be a crazy night 
Then she smiled and she took my hand 
Said oh, oh baby don't you understand that 
If you want my love (yeah), all you gotta do is say it 
If you want my love (come on and), all you gotta do is say it 
If you want my love (speak out honey), all you gotta do is say it 
If you want my love (come on and), all you gotta do is say it 
If you want my love (ay), all you gotta do is say it 
If you want my love (speak out now), all you gotta do is say it 
If you want my love, all you gotta do is say it 
If you want my love, all you gotta do is say it
