[Verse 1]
I want to hug him (Hug him)
But I'm afraid to
I want to kiss him (Kiss him)
But I'm afraid to
He talks so sweet
And so sure of himself
That I'm afraid that he belongs to
Somebody else
[Verse 2]
Ooh, I want to squeeze him (Squeeze him)
But I'm afraid to
And I would love to please him (Please him)
But I'm afraid to
He looks so fine
And acts so cool
I may fall in love
And be a, another fool
[Bridge]
Somebody help me
'Cause I'm so afraid
I want to fall in love
And not in my head
I need a guiding hand to
Press romance
I don't want to fool around
And miss my only chance
[Verse 3]
I want to love him (Love him)
But I'm afraid to
Place no one above him (Above him)
Like I was made to
I think I changed my mind
And I take a chance
And give my heart
In this romance
[Verse 3]
(I want to love him)
Mmm, but I'm afraid to
Place no one above him
Like I was made to
I think I changed my mind
And I'll take a chance
And give my heart
In this romance
[Outro]
I want to kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss him
Mm, I wanna love him
I want to squeeze, squeeze, squeeze ...
I want to hug him (Hug him)
But I'm afraid to
I want to kiss him (Kiss him)
But I'm afraid to
He talks so sweet
And so sure of himself
That I'm afraid that he belongs to
Somebody else
[Verse 2]
Ooh, I want to squeeze him (Squeeze him)
But I'm afraid to
And I would love to please him (Please him)
But I'm afraid to
He looks so fine
And acts so cool
I may fall in love
And be a, another fool
[Bridge]
Somebody help me
'Cause I'm so afraid
I want to fall in love
And not in my head
I need a guiding hand to
Press romance
I don't want to fool around
And miss my only chance
[Verse 3]
I want to love him (Love him)
But I'm afraid to
Place no one above him (Above him)
Like I was made to
I think I changed my mind
And I take a chance
And give my heart
In this romance
[Verse 3]
(I want to love him)
Mmm, but I'm afraid to
Place no one above him
Like I was made to
I think I changed my mind
And I'll take a chance
And give my heart
In this romance
[Outro]
I want to kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss him
Mm, I wanna love him
I want to squeeze, squeeze, squeeze ...
