paroles de chanson Stop, Look Before You Love - Ray Parker Jr.

Well, let me tell you something
From the outside lookin' in
Not as your lover
But from the stand-point of a friend
The word is out all over town
That your old man's been out foolin' around
That's okay cause you really oughta be with me
I'll save you honey from all this misery

If you just stop and look before you love
There's a man out there tryin' to run over you
You oughta stop and look before you love
He'll never care for you that way I do

You keep tellin' me your love for him is so strong
But who do you call when you wanna get it on
I ain't tryin' to start no mess
Between you and him
He did that for himself
When he betrayed you as a friend yeah
You're intelligent and you're also very cute
You've got too much goin' for yourself
To be anybody's fool

So why don't you stop baby look before you love
There's a man out there tryin' to run a game on you
You oughta stop it don't mean you're no good baby
He's just tryin' to make a fool, tryin' to make a fool
Tryin' to make a fool out of you yeah

Didn't your Mama ever tell you
You got to look both ways
Before you cross the street
If you're not careful
You get hit with a heartache

Come on baby
Open up your eyes and see yeah
That the one who really loves you
Is not him but me

Oh, stop can't stand it no longer baby
He don't even appreciate
The good thing he's got
I just can't sit back
And watch you have a heart attack
No, baby worried about some man
Who don't care a thing for you
You oughta stop baby
I'll make it good to you
You oughta know by now
That I'm in love with you
So why don't you stop
You better face it girl
He'll never make you
Feel good the way I do
Stop oh...
