(m. riperton - l.ware - r. rudolph)
Things i say and do may not come clear through
My words may not convey just what i'm feelin'
But i hope you'll recognize what's right before your eyes
Oh, your heart should realize
From where i'm dealin'
Baby i'm tryin' to show you that i love you
Baby i'm tryin' to show you that i care
Baby i'm tryin' to tell you that i, i need you
Baby, i'm tryin' to tell you that i care
Oh, you may not understand just why i show my hand
The method to my madness you inspire
Perception is the key
It's evident you see
What this is all about
Is love entire
And all i know is true
Is this love i have for you
And all i know is true
Is this love i have for you
