[Intro: K-Ci & Keith Sweat]
Yeah
Yeah, yeah
Ohhhh
Yes babe
See, see my, my, my girl
Woo
Yeaaaah, yeah
Listen, baby
Ooh, yeah

[Verse 1]
Late in the midnight hour
Do you wanna be holdin' me, baby?
Yeah, girl
If you gotta think twice about it
Then you surely not the one for me, baby
No, girl
See, my girl
Don’t ever let your girlfriends tell you
That I am not the man for you, baby
No, girl, see
'Cause misery loves company, baby
And that is not my plan for you, baby
No, baby
No, no

[Chorus: K-Ci & Keith Sweat]
If you ever see my girl
Just remember, all you gotta do is to listen to me, baby
How many ways do I have to show you, how much I love you?
Yes I do (Baby, baby, baby)
And how many ways do I have to say, I'll always be there?
Yes I will
Can't you see
Help me sing

[Verse 2]
You don’t never have to worry, no baby
I'll be showing you girl (Yeah, yeah, yeah, baby)
And you don't ever have to be lonely (No, no, sugar)
I ain't lying to you girl
You're my baby and I don't mind telling you, girl
No, put your trust in my heart
Let me let it lead you to a place (Mhmm)
Yea girl, ohh, girl
Special place with you and me
We can call it "Lovers Land" (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Chorus: K-Ci & Keith Sweat]
If you ever (If you ever)
Just remember, all you gotta do is to listen to me, baby
How many ways do I have to show you, how much I love you? (I love you, baby)
Yes, I do (Baby, baby, baby)
And how many ways do I have to say, I'll always be there?
(I'll always be there for you, baby)
Yes, I will

[Outro: Keith Sweat & K-Ci]
How many ways do I have to show you?
(Let me show how much I love you, baby)
How many ways do I have to prove to you?
(Let me prove my love to you, baby)
How many ways do I have to say, I'll always be there?
(I'll show you I be there, baby)
I'll be there, baby
Be there, baby
Girl, I'll always be there
Through thick and thin (Thick and thin, baby)
Be there through all the hard times, girl (Through the hard times)
Be there when you need me, baby (Yes, I will)
Yes, I will hold you, baby
I will
I will

Almost a decade later, Sweat found the R&B groups Silk and Kut Klose and signed them to his own record label. His fifth album, which was self-titled and released in 1996, resulted in the certified-platinum hits, “Twisted” and “Nobody.” He went on to win “Favorite Male R&B/Soul Artist” at the 1997 American Music Awards.

Currently, he hosts a syndicated R&B radio show in New York City.
