[Intro]
Na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Don't go, don't go
Na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Hold up

[Verse 1]
You want a solution
But tryna prove me wrong
Why the paranoia?
Like I don't give my all (Don't go, don't go)
To violate you, baby
I just can't do (Hold up)
I'm no better off
Then without you (Don't go, don't go)
Won't you tell me
What it is I can do? (Hold up)
Would you believe me?
If I said there ain't no changing
In the way I feel (Hold up)
Must be another way to get to you (Don't go, don't go)

[Pre-Chorus]
We'd be foolish if we go astray (Hold up)
Would be a disrespect to all we've been through
And not everybody knows that (Hold up)
It takes two to make a thing not go wrong

[Chorus]
If you love like you say you love me
I love you like you should love me
Tell me baby, how can we go wrong?
If you love like you say you love me
I love you like you should love me
Then baby listen we can never lose (Don't go, don't go)

[Post-Chorus]
Don't (Don't go)
Go (Don't go)
No (Don't go)
Now (Don't go)
Oh (Don't go)
Oh (Don't go)
Don't (Don't go)
(Don't go)

[Verse 2]
You and me forever, girl, you know what this is
Do I gotta plead my case 'cause you my favorite (Don't go, don't go)
Thought you knew that my heart was never vacant (Hold up)
Why you question when your finger got the ring there (Don't go, don't go)
I know I be in the wrong and you be knowing (Hold up)
You're cute and all, but, girl, you're probably on that bullshit

[Pre-Chorus]
We'd be foolish if we go astray (Hold up)
Would be a disrespect to all we've been through (Don't go, don't go)
And not everybody knows that (Hold up)
It takes two to make a thing not go wrong

[Chorus]
If you love like you say you love me
I love you like you should love me
Tell me baby, how can we go wrong?
If you love like you say you love me
I love you like you should love me
Then, baby, listen we can never lose

[Post-Chorus]
Don't (Don't go)
Go (Don't go)
No (Don't go)
Now (Don't go)
Don't (Don't go)
Go (Don't go)
No (Don't go)
(Don't go)

[Verse 3]
I need you, I love you, I want you beside me
Yeah, we might argue, but, girl, you and I were made for each other
But you've been a part of me
Can't put a price on your loyalty
Said, if you love me

[Pre-Chorus]
If you love like you say you love me
I love you like you should love me
Tell me baby, how can we go wrong?
If you love like you say you love me
I love you like you should love me
Then, baby, listen we could never lose

[Chorus]
Hear me say it, don't (Don't go)
Go (Don't go)
Am I clear to you? (Don't go)
And I need you (Don't go)
I'm begging you to stay (Don't go)
I'm man enough to say it (Don't go)
I don't need nobody, need nobody (Don't go, don't go)

[Post-Chorus]
If you love like you say you love me
I love you like you should love me
Tell me baby, how can we go wrong?
If you love like you say you love me
I love you like you should love me
Then, baby, listen we could never lose (Don't go, don't go)

[Outro]
I'm begging you don't
Go (Don't go, don't go)
Don't
Go (Don't go, don't go)
Don't
Go (Don't go, don't go)
Don't
Go (Don't go, don't go)

Bell Biv DeVoe

Bell Biv DeVoe is a New Jack Swing trio featuring Ricky Bell, Michael Bivins, and Ronnie DeVoe—members of the seminal R&B boy band New Edition. Following the release of New Edition’s classic album Heart Break in 1988 and their subsequent tour, the group took a hiatus. BBD formed in 1989 and scored big the following year when the singles “Poison” and “Do Me!” propelled their self-titled debut into the Top 5 on the Billboard 200 chart. The group released two more albums–Hootie Mack (1993) and BBD (2001)–before releasing their fourth album, Three Stripes, in 2017. They continue to tour and perform as a trio and in different variations of the New Edition lineup such as RBRM, consisting of BBD and Bobby Brown.
