Babyface - Ordinary Girl lyrics

Written by lionel richie, babyface (1996) Performed by lionel richie How will I know when someone loves me How will I know if there's no one else I'm dyin' to have someone who'll love me But I want them to love me for myself I looked for love in all the wrong places I searched the moon and the stars Found myself lost in a world of faces The place I didn't look was my heart I've been all around the world Trying to find something new Lord knows that something was you 'cause I found in myself The one thing that's true All I want is an ordinary girl All I need is an ordinary girl I just want someone I can talk to Someone I can lean on now and then I don't wanna lie, and pretend I'm someone else I'm just lookin' for a friend My heart was going through so many changes I didn't know which way to turn Just when I thought I had all of the answers I found I still had so much to learn Hook I just want to feel lost in love forever I want to see that look in your eyes I hope that you'll understand what I'm saying, baby 'cause girl, I need you right by my side Hook Someone to love me Spoken: You know I've been all around the world Trying to find someone new You know at the end of my search That someone was you And I found in my heart There can be no one but you All I need is an ordinary girl Your love my love You know heaven sent you from above Ordinary girl You're the best thing in my life Oh, oh girl
