I'm gon' put it out there, lay it on the line
And even if it breaks my heart, I'm giving it a try
Not waiting for tomorrow, confessing it today
So baby, here it goes, I'm out of time, it's do or die

I wanna be your baby, won't you be my man?
I wanna be your soldier, when you're too weak to stand
And I wanna be your baby, be the end of your day
Forever in your life, forever by your side, forever I'll stay

I'm hanging on a thread here, I don't care if I fall
But I'm gonna fall, even though
I don't know if you feel me at all
I'm ready to be right or wrong with you
I'm ready for my heart to win or lose
I'm ready to give all I've got to you
Boy, I want you to know

I wanna be your baby, won't you be my man?
I wanna be your soldier, when you're too weak to stand
And I wanna be your baby, be the end of your day
Forever in your life, forever by your side, forever I'll stay

So I'm saying, I love you
Ain't not holding nothing back
And I'm saying, I want you [?]
And I'll wait on you forever and I promise that
'Cuz I love you, oh, I love you
I wanna be

I wanna be your baby, won't you be my man?
I wanna be your soldier, when you're too weak to stand
And I wanna be your baby, be the end of your day
Forever (life), forever (side), forever (stay)

Let me be yours tonight, (yeah) let me be yours (let me be your baby boo tonight)
Let me be yours (let me be yours), tonight (cause I got to be your tonight)
