Tick Tock - Raphael Saadiq

You see, baby

I ain’t going nowhere, no

I’m just gonna wait on you

Girl, I swear

I’m here when you need me, you should know

I can always listen, so

'Cause, girl you’re my ba-baby

This thing that you’re going through

Just do what you got to do

And love will show you the rest, girl

How much time do you need

To solve all your deeds?

'Cause I could go for a ride

Now, tell me one thing, please

Nobody will shuffle me

'Cause we might just have a chance, girl

I will wait on you, my dear

Even if it takes a thousand years

I believe that love will see us through

But for right now here’s what we gon' do

My friends say I’m slippin' over you

I wonder how they knew

But I guess I’m home every night, night

I still have visions of you

No other girl will do

Shit, I just got to kiss you

And, I know this can’t be the end

We got to be free from sin

At least we can try

But here’s what we gonna do

'Cause I understand you

Let’s make out just one more time

I will wait on you, my dear

Even if it takes a thousand years

I believe that love will see us through

But for right now here’s what we gon' do

Forever will I wait on you

And I hope that you feel like I do

It’s so hard for me to wear my watch

Because all I hear is tick and tock

You see, sometimes, lady

When I’m alone by myself, yeah

All I can do is think about the times we use to share

Think about the good times, baby

Yeah, yeah, yeah

And you know another thing, baby

It ain’t the same no more when I go out at night

I get a bunch of numbers, baby

And they all just stay in my pocket for days

I don’t wanna call nobody else

I don’t wanna see nobody else

I don’t wanna work nobody else

But I guess I, I guess I’ll just wait

I will wait on you, my dear

Even if it takes a thousand years

I believe that love will see us through

But for right now here’s what we gon' do

Forever will I wait on you

And I hope that you feel like I do

It’s so hard for me to wear my watch

Because all I hear is tick and tock (tick, tick, tick, tick, tick tock)

Oh yeah, baby

Come on back home, baby

Lord have mercy

Please, please, please…
