[Verse 1]
Baby let me tell ya about how I feel
This urge is seizing me controlling it's unreal
Uhh ahh baby, I wanna let you know
You got me yearning, so baby let me show

[Bridge]
Oh, I want you baby, gotta let you know I need ya here with me
Right here and nowhere else, honey
This ain't the right way, gotta find another way to earn your love
Just give me a clue 'cause you know

[Chorus]
Sympin' ain't easy, get on your hands and knees and lift your eyebrows
Sympin ain't easy, and if you wanna get you know you gotta be willing
To cry and beg and plead on your knees

[Verse 2]
Pardon my expression (you're excused)
But the feeling I have is so strong
I guess you know this isn't easy to do
I keep trying and trying to give my love to you

[Bridge]
Oh, I want you baby, gotta let you know I need ya here with me
Right here and nowhere else, honey
This ain't the right way, gotta find another way to earn your love
Just give me a clue 'cause you know

[Chorus]
Sympin' ain't easy, get on your hands and knees and lift your eyebrows
Sympin ain't easy, and if you wanna get you know you gotta be willing
To cry and beg and plead on your knees
Sympin' ain't easy, get on your hands and knees and lift your eyebrows
Sympin ain't easy, and if you wanna get you know you gotta be willing
To cry and beg and plead on your knees

[Bridge]
Oh, I want you baby, gotta let you know I need ya here with me
Right here and nowhere else, honey
This ain't the right way, gotta find another way to earn your love
Just give me a clue 'cause you know

[Chorus]
Sympin' ain't easy, get on your hands and knees and lift your eyebrows
Sympin ain't easy, and if you wanna get you know you gotta be willing
To cry and beg and plead on your knees
Sympin' ain't easy, get on your hands and knees and lift your eyebrows
Sympin ain't easy, and if you wanna get you know you gotta be willing
To cry and beg and plead on your knees
Sympin' ain't easy, get on your hands and knees and lift your eyebrows
Sympin ain't easy, and if you wanna get you know you gotta be willing
To cry and beg and plead on your knees

[Outro]
Sympin' ain't
Sympin' ain't
Easy

Boyz II Men

Boyz II Men is an R&B vocal quartet from Philadelphia who became the most successful pop group of the 1990s. They’re best known for their passionate ballads, including the number one hits “End of The Road,” “On Bended Knee,” and “I’ll Make Love To You.”

An early version of the group was founded by Nathan Morris in the mid 1980s while attending the Philadelphia High School for the Creative and Performing Arts, where he recruited students Wanya Morris, Shawn Stockman, and Michael McCary. Singer Marc Nelson was also an early member, but left the group before their big break.

The group—who took its name from New Edition’s song “Boys To Men”—was discovered in 1988 after auditioning for New Edition’s Michael Bivins backstage at a concert. Bivins signed the group to his management company and secured them a contract with Motown Records.
