[Verse 1]
Brown eyed girl, come walk with me
Brown eyed girl, come talk with me
I wanna do
All the things in love a man should do
All the little things you want me to
Brown eyed girl
Brown eyed girl

[Verse 2]
Brown eyed girl, now do you know
Brown eyed girl, that I love you so
My whole life through, I've been waiting for a girl like you
Someone I can give sweet kisses to
Brown eyed girl
Brown eyed girl

[Bridge]
If you leave me I'll go crazy
'Cause I wanna be just where you are, baby
At night I pray we'll stay together, oh, until forever
Until forever, baby
Yeah

[Verse 3]
Brown eyed girl, come walk with me
Brown eyed girl come talk with me
I wanna do
All the things in love a man should do
All the little things you want me to, baby
Brown eyed girl
Brown eyed girl, oh yeah
Brown eyed girl, oh yeah
Brown eyed girl
Brown eyed girl

Tevin Campbell is a Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter that got his career started with two big names in music—first working with Quincy Jones in 1989 on “Tomorrow (A Better You, Better Me)” from the album Back on the Block and then working with Prince on “Round and Round” from the Graffiti Bridge soundtrack in 1990.

His debut album T.E.V.I.N. was released on November 19, 1991 and features the #1 R&B hits “Tell Me What You Want Me To Do” and “Alone With You,” which helped the album go platinum and earn Tevin a Grammy nomination for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance. His next album I’m Ready was released on October 26, 1993 and featured the Babyface-produced hits “Can We Talk” and “I’m Ready.” This album went double platinum and led to three more Grammy nominations for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance for “Can We Talk,” Best Male R&B Vocal Performance for “I’m Ready,” and Best R&B Album.

Tevin’s third album Back to the World was released on June 25, 1996 and he followed that up with the release of a self-titled album on February 23, 1999. He appeared in the Broadway musical Hairspray in 2005 and after some guest appearances on various shows throughout the years, he released the song “Safer on the Ground” in 2016.
