See I'm going through a situation that I can't help
Wanna get a little closer but I promised myself
That I would never give my heart, oh, away again
Ooh, ooh, babe
I know it's hard butcha gotta understand it
The truth is all the hurt and the pain and the shit that you get
When you have it
Ain't worth it
I've been there so many times
I should know better but I
Can't stop what I feel when you're next to me
I really think I

Finally found somebody that could be the one (I…)
But I promised myself that I wouldn't give in to love (oh…)
And I'm scared
And I'm nervous (oh…)
Don't wanna be hurt anymore
This is bad
Cause I know that you're the one
[MC, baby, tell 'em what we talkin' about]

Finally found somebody that could be the one
(I think I finally)
But I promised myself that I wouldn't give in to love (oh…)
So I'm scared
And I'm nervous (boy, I'm so afraid)
Don't wanna be hurt anymore
This is bad
Cause I know that you're the one [baby, that you're the one]
[MC, baby, tell 'em what we talkin' about]

See the problem with relationships in general is that it's always a game
In the beginning they'll do anything to have you
Once they do it's never the same
And I, know everyone out there can relate
So the question is
One: do I really wanna trust this feeling
Two: do I wanna let it pass me by
Three: do you think it's only superficial
Four: could it actually be different this time
Someone to love me
Someone to be my everything
Maybe I've stumbled upon

Finally found somebody that could be the one (the only one)
But I promised myself that I wouldn't give in to love (no, no)
And I'm scared
And I'm nervous (I just don't wanna be hurt)
Don't wanna be hurt anymore
This is bad
Cause I know that you're the one
(But boy, I think you might be the one, mmm…)
[MC, baby, tell 'em what we talkin' about]

Finally found somebody that could be the one (maybe I've found)
But I promised myself that I wouldn't give in to love (yeah, yeah)
So I'm scared
And I'm nervous (boy, I'm so afraid)
Don't wanna be hurt anymore
This is bad
Cause I know that you're the one [baby, that you're the one]
(Cause I know that you're the one, eh)
[MC, baby, tell 'em what we talkin' about]

Oh, baby
Sweet darling
I…I think I finally found, hello
[MC, baby, tell 'em what we talkin' about]

Finally found somebody that could be the one (the only one)

(I don't wanna be hurt no more)
This is bad
Cause I know that you're the one
(But I think you might really be the one)
[MC, baby, tell 'em what we talkin' about]

Finally found somebody (ah…) that could be the one
