[Verse 1]
I was just minding my business when
Ms. Purdy, you came walking
My heart stopped said, "What is this", just
As soon as you started talking
Something happened deep within me (Well)
All of a sudden I got this feeling
A chill came from feet to head and then I
Turned away from you and said to myself
This is not supposed to happen, brother
You've been hurt too many times before
First I tripped, then I slipped, then I fell

[Chorus]
You made me love you
You made me love you babe, made me love you babe
Made me love you babe, (oh Lord) made me love you babe
Said you made me love you
You made me love you babe, made me love you babe
Made me love you babe, (good Lord) made me love you babe
You made me love you
You made me love you babe, made me love you babe
(Said it wasn't in my plans)
Made me love you babe, made me love you babe
Ooh, look at you

[Verse 2]
Said you must be one of the top models (Well)
Body curved like a pop bottle (Well)
Got me sweating like a boxer, baby
I done stumbled up on a perfect lady (OWW)
Could this be what heaven sent to me
An angel come to set me free
Love has been a stranger to me
And myself keeps telling me that
This is not supposed to happen, brother
You've been hurt too many times before
First I tripped, then I slipped, then I fell

[Chorus]
You made me love you
You made me love you babe, (Oh yeah) made me love you babe
Made me love you babe, (Hoo) made me love you babe
Hey, you made me love you
You made me love you babe, made me love you babe (Yeah)
Made me love you babe, made me love you babe
Aw baby, you made love you
You made me love you babe, made me love you babe (Aw, love)
Made me love you babe, made me love you babe

[Bridge]
Said the power of love you see
Are 10 billion wonders to me (Like the moon and stars above)
There's a whole new world for my eyes to see (Yes, sir)
So much joy, darling, you put in me
And now the sun is shining
Where there used to be rain, oh Lord
And now no more loneliness (No more loneliness)
No more hurt (No more hurt)
No more pain (No)
You made, woo!
You made me love you

[Chorus]
You made me love you babe, (Woo) made me love you babe (Yes, you did)
Made me love you babe, made me love you babe
Hey, you made me love you
You made me love you babe, (Hey, hey, hey) made me love you babe
Made me love you babe, made me love you babe
You made me love you
You made me love you babe, made me love you babe
(I was minding my business)
Made me love you babe, made me love you babe
You made me love you, yeah
You made me love you babe, (Oh) made me love you babe
Made me love you babe, (Yes sir) made me love you babe
You, you, you made me love you
You made me love you babe, (Yeah) made me love you babe
Made me love you babe, made me love you babe
Hey, hey, you made me love you
You made me love you, (Love you) made me love you babe (Oh yeah)
Made me love you babe, made me love you babe
You made me love you
You made me love you babe, made me love you babe (Somebody)
Made me love you babe, made me love you babe
Listen, it's like going to church y'all
It brings love, peace, strength, and joy
You made me love you, hey, yeah...

Robert Kelly is a Grammy Award-winning singer, songwriter, and producer from the South Side of Chicago, Illinois, where he first started performing under the “L” subway tracks as a teenager. This led into his first album, Born Into the 90’s, being released in 1992 as a collaboration between R. Kelly and Public Announcement. R. Kelly wrote and produced the entire album, which contained the #1 R&B hits “Honey Love” and “Slow Dance,” along with the Top 10 R&B hits “She’s Got That Vibe” (#7) and “Dedicated” (#9). The following year, Kelly went on to become a solo act.

In 1993, he released his first solo album, 12 Play, featuring the hits “Bump N' Grind” and “Your Body’s Callin'.” He released a self-titled album in 1995 featuring the hits “Down Low (Nobody Has To Know)” and “You Remind Me of Something,” while his 1998 double album, R., featured a string of hits, including “I Am Your Angel” with Celine Dion, “When a Woman’s Fed Up,” and his Grammy Award-winning song “I Believe I Can Fly” from the Space Jam soundtrack.

The success of these albums led to him becoming an in-demand producer in the ‘90s, writing and producing #1 hits for Aaliyah (“Back & Forth”), Janet Jackson (“Any Time, Any Place (Remix)”), Changing Faces (“G.H.E.T.T.O.U.T”), Maxwell (“Fortunate”), and Michael Jackson (“You Are Not Alone”).
