[Verse 1]
If I told you
I'll be the one to make all your dreams true
If I gave you
All of the things that make a man feel so good
If I need you
Come here to me before I give it to you
If I had to
I'd change the world and make it realer for you

[Chorus]
If you do what I say you do
I promise we can do whateva'
You want to 'cause I want you
Say you love me and I'm down for whateva'
If you do what I say you do
I promise we can do whateva'
You want to 'cause I want you
Say you love me and I'm down for whateva'

[Verse 2]
Now that it's clear, I hope you understand the way I'm feelin'
And now that you're here, you can't stop thinking of what I want to hear
Now that it's true, I can't stop holdin' back and do what I do
And when we're through, I can lay in your arms and say I love you

[Verse 3]
I believe we can be
Whateva we want to, no matter the dilemma
And I believe that you'll see the me in forever
But we finally got together
And I believe it will be all about us too
'Cause baby, I love you
And then they will see what we mean
When we say we're together for eternity

[Chorus]
If you do what I say you do
I promise we can do whateva'
You want to 'cause I want you
Say you love me and I'm down for whateva'
If you do what I say you do
I promise we can do whateva'
You want to 'cause I want you
Say you love me and I'm down for whateva'

[Verse 4]
Tell me what happens when you think of me
Do you feel the things I'm feel?
'Cause when I see you, I start trembling
My knees start shakin', just glad to be with you
Tell me your love will always be with me
Promise me that you will never leave
And then take me where I want to be
'Cause I need you, baby, I need you crazy (Oh-oh)

[Chorus]
If you do what I say you do
I promise we can do whateva'
You want to cause I want you
Say you love me and I'm down for whateva'
If you do what I say you do
I promise we can do whateva'
You want to cause I want you (I'm down for whatever)
Say you love me and I'm down for whateva'
If you do what I say you do
I promise we can do whateva' (I promise we can do whateva')
You want to cause I want you
Say you love me and I'm down for whateva'
If you do what I say you do (Ooh, I)
I promise we can do whateva'
You want to cause I want you (I want you)
Say you love me and I'm down for whateva'
(I'll do watever you want to)
If you do what I say you do
I promise we can do whateva'
You want to cause I want you
Say you love me and I'm down for whateva'
