  • Whoa, whoa, ho

    You made me happy
    This you can bet
    You stood right beside me, yeah
    And I won't forget

    And I really love you
    You should know
    I want to make sure I'm right, girl
    Before I let go

    Now we've had our good time
    That's not the same, no
    We're hurtin' each other
    Girl, it's a shame

    I won't be foolish, no
    I wanna know
    I wanna make sure I'm right, girl, oh
    Before I let go, yeah (uh)

    You know I thank God
    Sun rises and shines on you
    You know there's nothin'
    Nothin', nothin' I would not do
    Whoa, no

    Before I let you go, oh
    I would never, never, never, never
    Never, never, never
    Never let you go before I know

    We were so close
    I love your song
    I can't understand it, no
    Where did we go wrong?

    I won't be hasty, girl
    I've got to know
    I gotta make sure I'm right
    Before I let go (ha, ha)

    I wanna know
    I wanna know, ohh, yeah
    I can't, I can't let you go, mh
    I can't, I can't let you go
    Alright, now
    Come on, y'all

    Come on, y'all
    I wanna know, I wanna know
    I wanna know before I let you go
    I've gotta know, ohh
    Come on, y'all
    Come on
    I can't let you
    Go, go, go, go, go, yeah
    I wanna know, know, I wanna know
