When you won’t talk to me
When you won’t make me feel alright
When I’m intoxicated
You make a man wanna come and spend the night
Oh girl, I can see your face but I can see it just for a day
Oh no, I can free your space and mind and I got nothin’ to say
Oh girl, I can see your face but I can see it just for a day
Oh no, your fingertips I’m wrapped around ‘em feeling this way
Sha, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, this way
Gotta give it up, gotta live it up!
Gotta give it up, gotta live it up now!
Sha, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, this way
Gotta give it up, gotta live it up!
Gotta give it up, gotta live it up now!
When I’m feeling stimulated
When I don’t need no one else up in my life
You seem to make it complicated (why?)
Cuz everybody wants a piece of my pie
I’ve been searching for it long before
You ever showed me your face
I could go with it, I’d be so perfect
Happiness don’t come every day
So don’t take it away now
Oh girl, I can see your face but I can see it just for a day
Oh no, I can free your space and mind and I got nothin’ to say
Oh girl, I can see your face but I can see it just for a day
Oh no, your fingertips I’m wrapped around ‘em feeling this way
Sha, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, this way
Gotta give it up, gotta live it up!
Gotta give it up, gotta live it up now!
Sha, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, this way
Gotta give it up, gotta live it up!
Gotta give it up, gotta live it up now!
Sha, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, this way
Gotta give it up, gotta live it up!
Gotta give it up, gotta live it up now!
Sha, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, this way
Gotta give it up, gotta live it up!
Gotta give it up, gotta live it up now!
