[Intro (Shawnna)] Why you treat me like you do? Can it just be me and you? 'cause I don't wanna play no more If I let go, you let go 'cause I just can't get enough And I just wanna feel you touch But I just gotta know what's up, what's up, what's up [Verse 1 (Marques Houston)] Hey girl come here sit down Let me holla at you a while Gotta get this off my chest Hope that you can handle it We've been seeing each other a lot Honestly I don't want it to stop You and me; me and you I'm liking what we've got Only thing thats bothering me We ain't as close as we should be That's 'cause you're holding back Holding back your love for me How do you expect to grow if you just don't let go? [Chorus (Marques Houston):] Why you tryna hold back Why you tryna hold back When you know you want it just like I do Why you acting like that, girl don't do me like that All I'm tryna do is be next to you Why you tryna hold back Why you tryna hold back on me baby All I want is you stop holding back on me [Verse 2 (Mya)] Don't take offense to this Not tryna start no mess Ain't tryna have you stressed This is just a little test I wanna see how serious Serious you are of us Do you like or like me not I'm loving what we've got Only thing that bothers me We ain't close as we should be That's 'cause you're holding back Holding back you love for me How do expect this thing to grow If you don't let it go go go go [Chorus (Mya and Marques Houston):] Babe Why you tryna hold back
Why you tryna hold back When you know you want it just like I do Why you acting like that, girl don't do me like that All I'm tryna do is be next to you Why you tryna hold back Why you tryna hold back on me baby All I want is you stop holding back on me [Verse 3 (Shawnna)] Everytime I get to thinking about you I see I can't be without you 'cause you that sh**, that's it And I really can't leave rite now boo I need my fix, your kiss Made me about to let go bout to But wait right quick can't slip I don't really think your down with this See I played these games before And I fall everytime we go 'cause see I can't no more I move slow but don't really wanna stop the flow Don't know what to do Gotta just relax and hold back Just sit back and roll that, roll that, roll that [Chorus (Mya and Marques Houston)] Babe Why you tryna hold back Why you tryna hold back When you know you want it just like I do What you acting like that, girl don't do me like that All I'm tryna do is be next to you Why you tryna hold back Why you tryna hold back on me baby All I want is you stop holding back on me [Outro (Shawnna)] Why you treat me like you do?
