  • Girl
    I tried to run but couldn't get too far
    My heart is pumpin' but still, I'm runnin' in place
    No matter how hard I try to get your touch
    When you're away too long, oh, girl it's too much
    But every time I run, I need it
    Oh, so bad

    But I'm running scared, my heart's beatin' so fast
    I heard that you could make a man change his plan (can make him change his plans)
    That's why I'm running fast, I'm running the hundred yard dash

    I ran for the hills
    Ooh, girl, there you were
    How you appeared, you see, I'll never know
    I told the bartender to pour me a double glass
    Then light me a smoke, so I can sing some jazz

    Now here come them legs, here come those eyes
    And neither one I can never deny
    I try to be smooth as I can
    But I guess I need another plan

    I need your lovin' baby, oh, so bad
    But I'm runnin' scared, my heart's beatin' so fast
    I heard that you could make a man change his plan (can make him change his plans)
    That's why I'm running fast, I'm runnin' the hundred yard dash

    Your love gets stronger
    And it feels like everyday is getting longer
    I feel your love like a monkey on my back
    Girl, your heart is so big, see, I can feel the attack

    Oh, oh, I need some lovin'
    I, I want your lovin'
    I gotta have your lovin'
    I, I need to, got to, got to have your lovin' Writer/s: Raphael Saadiq, Robert C. Ozuna Jr.
