[Verse 1]
What good is a kiss especially if it's not with the
One you truly love? Baby, don't kiss your life away
What good is a house if it's not a home?
We don't wanna spend our lives alone
Baby, let's not make that mistake
Don't [4x]

Some people search, but they search too far
When love is so close to their hearts
Well, I won't be searching cause love is right here
And it's clear, it's right in your arms, baby

[Hook 2x]
Don't, Don't you go breaking my heart
Don't run away from these arms
There's something I need you to know
Love will be waiting at home

[Verse 2]
What good is a heart if it's all alone
Without someone special there to hold?
The heart was not meant to waste away
What good is a love, if it's not sincere?
You need someone special who's always there
Not someone who'll just drift away
No [4x]

Some people search through their whole life long
Trying to find someone true
Well, don't you go searching cause love is right
Here, don't you fear. It's waiting for you

[Hook 2x]

[bridge]
Boy, I will be there
Be waiting for you
If you need, only call
I'm there for you baby
I'll give you my heart
Forever be true
I'll be there for you
And only for you

[hook 2x]

[bridge]

Love is waiting for you

For Real

This singing group was founded in the early 1990s. An initial lineup of the group consisted of Josina Elder-Epps, Phaenicia Grant, Shiro Stokes, and Wendi Williams and their name was stylized as “4 Reel.” This incarnation has their first credit performing handclaps on soul singer Lalah Hathaway’s “U Godit Gowin On.”

By 1993, Grant and Stokes were out of the group and replaced with Latanyia Baldwin and Necia Bray-Gates. They signed with A&M Records sporting their signature barely-there hair cuts.

Their debut album It’s a Natural Thang appeared in 1994 lead by the single “You Don’t Wanna Miss.” That was followed up with Jason Hess-produced “Easy To Love” and the music-free standout “You Don’t Know Nothin'” that went on to become one of their most popular songs.
