We`ve been over this before
And I`m sensing you want more
I don`t need someone who complicates me
And it`s not that I don`t care
But there`s some things I can`t share
Girl, I told you I`m not there
Girl, the world`s been down on me
I don`t need someone to own me
Girl, a lover is all I need
I`m the one who needs to hold me
[Chorus:]
since I met you, I`ve been hearing the same thing
And it seems it`s all we talk about lately
So before you go out on the limb
Don`t tell me it`s love
It`s that look in your eyes that betrays me
And the things that you do to amaze me
Don`t tell me it`s so
What I`m offering`s what you see
I`m giving you my honesty
And I`m sorry if it hurts to hear the truth
And maybe I will find in time
That all along girl, you were right
That I should have made you mine
But for now I still believe
That I don`t need someone to own me
Just a lover is all I need
And someone who`s gonna hold me
[Repeat Chorus]
