I was so excited just to get to know you
Oh baby just to know you
I was just a little bit shy
God willing I was ready
To try to show you
Oh just to show you
I felt a little funny
But it was really no joke
I wanted to prove my love
In every word that I spoke
(Chorus:)
But the action
Speaks louder
You know the action
Speaks louder than
The word
The action,
Louder than the word
I loved you just the way you were
Somehow I had to find the nerve to tell you
Oh baby just to tell you
So I did what a man must do
I walked right over to you
And I was asking
Baby, lets go dancing
I felt a little guilty
But I had committed no crime
I wanted to love you
Love you and love you
For a long time
[Chorus:]
(Bridge:)
I can't wait until I'm holding you
And there's no doubt in your mind
You're the one and only one for me
Only one for me
I'm gonna prove my love no matter how long that it
Takes
The feelings I have for you they're no mistake
[Chorus:]
Remember when we first met I was so excited just to get to know you Oh baby just to know you I was just a little bit shy God willing I was ready To try to show you Oh just to show you I felt a little funny But it was really no joke I wanted to prove my love In every word that I spoke (Chorus:) But the action Speaks louder You know the action Speaks louder than The word The action, Louder than the word I loved you just the way you were Somehow I had to find the nerve to tell you Oh baby just to tell you So I did what a man must do I walked right over to you And I was asking Baby, lets go dancing I felt a little guilty But I had committed no crime I wanted to love you Love you and love you For a long time [Chorus:] (Bridge:) I can't wait until I'm holding you And there's no doubt in your mind You're the one and only one for me Only one for me I'm gonna prove my love no matter how long that it Takes The feelings I have for you they're no mistake [Chorus:] Explain Request ×
