"I'm The One" lyrics

Woo-ooh-ooh-ooh...

I've been here, I've been 'round
I've been tryin' not to put you down
But cha don't know
How to treat a woman like me
I've been up, I've been down
I've been thrown on the ground
But you don't have to slap my face
'Cause that's not the way to do
What you want me to do

You've got to love me
You've got to give it to me
You've got to hold me
You've got to make everything alright
You've got to show me that you need me
Even when it hurts a little
Because I'm the one that you need

I've been lost, I've been found
I've been all over town
And I don't have to take this mess no more
You got until midnight tonight
To set this love thing right
Or I don't wanna see your face at my door

So don't cha lie, I told you why
You don't have to say goodbye
Because I'm the one you need

It's true that one and one is two
(It's true that one and one is two)
But not just anyone will do
I'd like to spend my life with you
(Spend my days and my nights)
But first I gotta make you see
That I'm the one that you need

I'm the one that you need, baby
(Ooh-ooh-ooh...)

I'm the one, I'm the one
(Mmm, yeah)
I'm the only one
(I'm the one that you need)
I'm the one, I'm the one
(Oh, ooh...)
I'm the only one
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh...)

I don't want to hear the bells, mm-mmm
I don't want to hear the bells strike twelve

One
It used to be so much fun
Two
Tell me, what are we going to do
Three
Baby, whatever happened to you and me
Four
(Ooh-ooh-ooh...)
It's got to be you knockin' at my door

So don't you lie, I told you why
You don't have to say goodbye
(No, no)
So, don't you lie, I told you why
(Don't you lie, told you why)
You don't have to say goodbye
'Cause I'm the one you need

It's true that one and one is two
(It's true that one and one is two)
But not just anyone will do
(No, no, no, no, not anybody)
I'd like to spend my life with you
(Spend my days and my nights)
But first I gotta make you see
Gotta make you see
Gotta make you see that I'm the one

I'm the one, I'm the one
I'm the only one
(I'm the one that you need)
I'm the one, I'm the one
I'm the only one
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, yeah)

I'm the one, I'm the one
(Ooh, oh...)
I'm the only one
(Come around midnight)
I'm the one, I'm the one
(Oh, yeah)
I'm the only one
(Hurry up, baby)

I'm the one, I'm the one
(Ooh, hey)
I'm the only one
(Don't wanna hear the clock)
I'm the one, I'm the one
(Strike twelve)
I'm the only one
(No, no, no, come around midnight)

I'm the one, I'm the one
(Ooh, hey)
I'm the only one...
