Ohhh...
Hmmm...
Ohhh...
Hmmm...
[Verse 1:]
Baby, you´re a man and I know it´s hard to reach out for help.
And let down your guard.
But I am your woman.
So you gotta know why I been put on this earth.
To be right by your side.
Now lately you´ve been tryna hide it but something´s on your mind.
But I care what´s going on with you too much to let it slide.
I´m over the fussing.
And I´m tryna stop cussing.
So we gonna chill.
Let´s start to rebuild, boy.
[Chorus:]
Talk to me. (Just like you used to)
Talk to me. (I don´t wanna lose you so)
If you want to make this work the way I wanna. (I ain´t gonna force but you gonna)
Talk to me. (Just like you need to)
Talk to me. (Baby, I will receive you)
Every secret you know that I´ll keep it. (Ain´t I good to you baby?)
So come on, talk to me.
[Verse 2:]
Ain´t no telling lies.
Ain´t no holding back.
Ain´t no tip toeing.
We too grown for that.
I´m a say some things.
And I´m very clear that you may say some things I may not wanna hear.
But I´m gone listen to them.
And we gone work it out.
And if I need a breather, let you go walk it out.
I would never disrespect you.
You are the head.
But there´s so many things going left unsaid, ohh.
[Chorus:]
Talk to me. (Just like you used to)
Talk to me. (I don´t wanna lose you so)
If you want to make this work the way I wanna. (Hey, I ain´t gonna force but you gonna)
Talk to me. (Just like you need to)
Talk to me. (Baby, I will receive you)
Every secret you know that I´ll keep it. (Hey, ain´t I good to you baby)
So come on, talk to me.
[Bridge:]
You know love is a process.
And it ain´t gonna happen over night.
So be patient with my shortcomings.
You know how hard I try.
Let´s break down all the barriers standing in our way.
Get over yourself for me.
I´ll get over myself for you.
Let´s get over ourselves for us.
Let´s start today, yeah.
[Chorus:]
Talk to me. (Just like you used to)
Talk to me. (I don´t wanna lose you so)
If you want to make this work the way I wanna. (Hey, I ain´t gonna force but you gonna talk)
Talk to me. (Just like you need to)
Talk to me. (Baby, I will receive you, yeah)
Every secret you know that I´ll keep it. (Every secret, ain´t I good to you baby)
So come on, talk to me.
Ain´t I good to you baby?
Ain´t I good to you baby?
You can open your heart.
You can open your mind.
I´m all yours and I´m your friend.
You can talk to me at any time.
At any day.
At any hour.
I´m by your side.
I´ll never leave you.
I got your back, hey.
