J5: Stop! Nanana! You'd better save it!
Stop, stop, stop, you'd better save it!

Michael: When we played tag in grade school
You wanted to be It.
But chasing boys was just a fad
You crossed your heart you'd quit.

When we grew up you traded
Your promise for my ring
Now just like back to grade school
You're doing the same old thing!

Chorus:
Stop! The love you save may be your own!
Darling, take it slow
Or some day you'll be all alone.
You'd better stop the love you save may be your own!
Darling, look both ways before you cross me
You're headed for the danger zone.

Michael: I'm the one who loves you!
I'm the one you need!

Jermaine: Those other guys will put you down
As soon as they succeed!

Michael: They'll ruin your reputation!
They'll label you a flirt!

Jermaine: The way they talk about you
They'll turn your name to dirt, oh!

Michael: Isaac said he kissed you
Beneath the apple tree
When Benjie held your hand he felt
E-lec-tri-ci-tee!

When Alexander called you
He said he rang your chimes.
Christopher discovered
You're way ahead of your times!

[Chorus]

Bridge:
J5: Slow down.
Slow down.
Slow down.
Slow down.

Michael: S is for "Save it"
T is for "Take it slow"
O is for "Oh, no!"
P is for "Please, please, don't go!"

Jermaine: The love you save may be your own...

Michael: Some day you may be all alone...

Jermaine: Stop it!
Michael: Save it, girl!
Jermaine: Or some day you'll be all alone.

Michael: You'd better stop! The love you save may be your own!
Jermaine: Please, please
Or some day, some day baby,
You'll be all alone

Those other guys will put you down as soon as they succeed.

Michael: Stop! The love you save may be your own...

One More Chance

Everybody loves the star
When he's on the top
But noone ever comes around
When he starts to drop

But you were someone special
You stuck through thick and thin
But I was much too busy
Trying to shine
To let your love shine in

Let you slip away
I must have been insane
Stop in the name of love
Don't make me live my life in vain

Give me one more chance
That's all I ask of you
Just one more chance
I'll make it up to you
Just one more chance
That's all I ask of you
I'll build you a world for two
I'll make it up to you

Now since I'm all alone
I'm talking to myself
I know you're out there somewhere
Having fun with someone else

But a distant voice of hope
Echo from within, sayin'
(Don't give up)
(Your ship is comin' in)

Though my ship's alone
I'll play right to the end
I'm crying out
So heaven's door
Won't you let me back in

Give me one more chance
That's all I ask of you
Just one more chance
I'll make it up to you
Oh, one more chance
That's all I ask of you
I'll build you a world for two
I'll make it up to you

You'll never know
What I've been through
Let your love shine in again
This time I'll shine with you

One more chance
That's all I ask of you
Just one more chance
I'll make it up to you
Oh, one more chance
That's all I ask of you
I'll build a world for two
I'll make it up to you
Oh, one more chance
That's all I ask of you
Just one more chance
I'll make it up to you
Oh, one more chance
That's all I ask of you
I'll build a world for two
I'll make it up to you
Oh, one more chance
That's all I ask of you
I'll make it up to you
I'll build a world for two

Please say that boy is me

(Come 'Round Here) I'm The One You Need

Now you say...
Everytime you need
Some affection
The one you love goes
In another direction
You just sit back in
A daze reunising
'Cause you know some other lips,
She's been kissing
Now when you need the love
You never saw you come 'round here
And when you need some loving arms
To hold you come 'round here

Now I may not be the one you want
(Honey, honey)
But I know, I'm the one you need
(Honey, honey)
Say now, I may not be the one you want
(Honey, honey)
But, I know, I'm the one you need
(Honey, honey)

Your life stands still
The minute he goes
You count the hours
Just hoping he shows

Girl, can't you see while you're looking for his touch
(Honey, honey)
That I won't want to love you so much
(Honey, honey)
And while you're looking for kissing friends
(Honey, honey)
You're lovely with the tears on your face
(Honey, honey)

Now when you feel the need
To cry to someone cry to me
And when you feel the need
To lean on someone lean on me

Now, I may not be the one you want
(Honey, honey)
But I'm sure not the one you need
(Honey, honey)
Now, I may not be the one you want
(Honey, honey)
But I'm sure not the one you need
(Honey, honey)

Now, the day, the days,
The days you sit round by yourself
He's out fooling round
With somebody else
Leaving you alone here
With nothing to do
He's just waiting till
He has time for you
Now, when the loveliness gets hard
To play, girl come 'round here
And when you need a little chicken lover care,
Girl come 'round here

Now, I may not be the one you want
(Honey, honey)
But, I'm sure not the one you need
(Honey, honey)
Now, I may not be the one you want
(Honey, honey)
But, I'm sure not the one you need
(Honey, honey)

Don't Know Why I Love You

Oh, sure don't baby, baby, baby... Ooh, ooh
I don't know why I love you
I don't know why I love you
I don't know why I love you but I love you

Always treat me like a fool
Kick me when I'm down that you do
I don't know why I love you, but I love you
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Oh you'll never, you'll never stop your cheating ways
With another guy you laugh in my face
Lord I know 'cause I feel disgrace
'Cause I love you, oh, baby, baby, baby

I don't know why I love you
I don't know you and me, baby, oh yeah
I don't know why I love you, but I love you, baby
Oh darling, darling, darling, darling ...

You throw my heart down in the dirt
Oh, you make me cry
On this cold black earth, baby yeah

'Til I love you baby, baby, baby, baby, yeah
Can't stop, I can't stop crying can't you see
Here I'm pleading on my knees, upon my knees, yeah baby, yeah
Won't you help me, help me, please,

'Cause I love you, love you, love you, ohh

I don't know, we don't know, we don't know
(I don't know why I love you)
I don't know why I love you baby, baby
(I don't know, I don't know)
I don't know why I love you baby, baby...

Never Had A Dream Come True

I never, never had a dream come true
In my every dream, I'm loved by you
And we're free as the wind
And true love is no sin

Therefore, men are men, not machines
I never, never had a dream come true
Without you, the world out
There is painted shades of blue

Since our roads never crossed
I work just to please the boss
Think I might as well get lost in my dreams
Do do do do do.........

I never, never had a dream come true
Yes, I'm gonna dream about you
My whole life through
Seems my folks are ashamed
Said I ain't worth a thing
But I'm glad I'm chained to my creams
Do do do do do........

Keep on dreamin'
Sing along with me
Keep on dreaming

True Love Can be Beautiful

Searching, been looking everywhere
Soon I'll find you girl

And you passed them by

And they way I'd explain them to you
