[Intro]
Let's make love tonight, I'm in the mood to make love
Let's make love tonight, I'm in the mood to make love
Let's make love tonight, I'm in the mood to make love
Let's make love tonight, I'm in the mood to make love
Let's do it right, baby

[Verse 1]
Give me a reason, to love you again
I'm still not over, the pain you put me through
You know you were wrong
I tried to hide it, but it didn't work
I couldn't take it no more, so I had to move on
I'm moving on

[Chorus]
I'm looking for an honest lover
Somebody that'll be there for me, I gotta find an honest lover
I'm looking for an honest lover
Somebody that'll be there for me, I'm moving on I'm moving on

[Verse 2]
You told me so many lies, you tried to convince me of your honesty
You see that wasn't good enough (Not good enough for me)
And I can't believe you betrayed me, and put our love in jeopardy
I can't believe that it was happening to me
I tried to hide it, but it didn't work
I couldn't take it no more, so I had to move on
I'm moving on

[Chorus]
I'm looking for an honest lover
Somebody that'll be there for me, I gotta find an honest lover
I'm looking for an honest lover
Somebody that'll be there for me, I'm moving on I'm moving on

[Bridge]
Give me a reason girl to take you back
I gotta keep moving on, I gotta be strong
Baby, you know you done me wrong, so I gotta keep moving on
I gotta go, there's no turning back to you

[Chorus]
I'm looking for an honest lover
Somebody that'll be there for me, I gotta find an honest lover
I'm looking for an honest lover
Somebody that'll be there for me, I'm moving on I'm moving on

Brothers Cedric Hailey and Joel Hailey from Monroe, North Carolina make up the duo K-Ci & JoJo, the lead singers and half of the multi-platinum R&B group Jodeci along with brothers Mr. Dalvin and DeVante Swing. After three platinum albums with Jodeci, K-Ci & JoJo branched off and sang hooks for 2Pac on his singles “How Do U Want It” and “Toss It Up” in 1996 before releasing their first album Love Always in 1997. The album featured the #1 hit “All My Life,” which topped the Billboard Hot 100 for three weeks and was nominated for two Grammys. Their second album, It’s Real, was released in 1999 and hit platinum status in part due to the success of the single “Tell Me It’s Real,” which peaked at #2 on the Billboard chart. Their third album, X, was released in 2000 and featured the hit “Crazy,” which peaked at #3 on the Hot 100.

The duo released two more albums—2002’s Emotional and 2013’s My Brother’s Keeper—but they didn’t contain any top hits. In 2010, they starred in their own reality show on TVOne titled K-Ci & JoJo…Come Clean which dealt with their alcohol and relationship issues as they attempted a comeback. They reunited with Jodeci to release the album The Past, The Present, The Future in 2015.
