Say, say, say what you want but don't play games with my affection
Take, take, take what you need but don't leave me with no direction
All alone I sit home by the phone waiting for you baby (baby)
Through the years how can you stand to hear my pleading for you dear?
You know I'm cryin', ooh  ooh  ooh  ooh  ooh
Yeah

Now go, go, go where you want but don't leave me here forever
You, you, you stay away so long, girl, I see you never
What can I do, girl, to get through to you
'Cause I love you baby (baby)
Standing here baptised in all my tears, baby through the years
You know I'm cryin', ooh  ooh  ooh  ooh  ooh

  You never ever worry and you never shed a tear
  You're sayin' that my love ain't real
  Just look at my face, these tears ain't dryin'

You, you, you can never say that I'm not the one who really loves you
I pray, pray, pray every day that you'll see things, girl, like I do
What can I do, girl, to get through to you
'Cause I love you (love you) baby (baby)
Standing here baptised in all my tears, baby through the years
You know I'm cryin', ooh  ooh  ooh  ooh  ooh

Ooh  ooh  ooh  ooh  ooh
Ooh  ooh  ooh  ooh  ooh

Say, say, say
Ooh  ooh  ooh  ooh  ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh, say, say, say
Ooh, ooh, ooh, say, say, say
Ooh, ooh, ooh, say, say, say
Ooh, ooh, ooh, say, say, say
Ooh, ooh, ooh, say, say, say
Ooh, ooh, ooh, say, say, say
Ooh, ooh, ooh, say, say, say
Ooh, ooh, ooh, say, say, say
Ooh, ooh, ooh, say, say, say
Ooh, ooh, ooh, say, say, say
Ooh, ooh, ooh, say, say, say
