If I say I love ya
And lay it on the line, yeah
Could you say you need me
And put your hands in mine

Oh, I got love that grows
Oh, I got love that shows
I got the love
If you've got the time
Then I've got the time

Do you say you want me?
You'll give me everything
Then you could come live here
I'd even buy a ring

Oh, I've got lots to learn
Oh, I've got love to burn
I got the love
If you've got the time

Oh, I've got love that shows
Oh, I've got love that grows
I got the love
If you've got the time
Then I've got the time
Yeah

Do you say you need me?
You'll give me everything
Then you could come live here
I'd even buy a ring

Oh, I've got love that shows
Oh, I've got love that grows
I got the love
If you've got the time
Then I've got the time

Oh, I've got love that shows
Oh, I've got love that grows
I got the love
If you've got the time
Then I've got the time

Oh, I've got love that shows
Oh, I've got love that grows
I've got the love

The Babys are a British rock band most famous for their hit songs “Every Time I Think of You” and “Isn’t it Time”. The band featured vocalist John Waite, and future Journey keyboardist Jonathan Cain.

The band’s name was originally a joke that stuck. According to Waite:

We took the name simply because the record companies wouldn’t listen to any bands they thought were rock & roll. I mean, they wanted sure-fire teen bands, pre-teen bands. We couldn’t get anybody down to hear us to get a record deal, so we called ourselves The Babys. We thought we’d keep the name just for two weeks. Then, the word got around in London that there was a band playing rock & roll called The Babys and it seemed so off the wall, so completely crazy, that it was worth taking a shot with. It really appealed to everyone’s sense of humor.
