Gimme Some Time

Natalie Cole · We're The Best Of Friends [1979]

Gimme some time, baby

I know you're thinkin' that I'm playin'

But I'm saying that I wouldn't hurt you for the world, oh no



I'm not so blind, baby

I need your lovin' and you know it

Yes, I do, well

'Cause I'll show it, I don't wanna be hurt girl



If you want me to I'll keep it a secret

But please let me get through your door

'Cause I guarantee that once we get started

You'll soon be begging for more



You want the whole world to know that we are one

So why don't you gimme some time, baby

Let's take advantage not for granted for the good things

We've got the good things



I don't want to be hurt you

You just be kind, baby

We've got a good thing and I know it, let's not blow it, oh

'Cause I wouldn't hurt you for the world, I'm serious



I believe you think that I haven't noticed

The look in your eyes when you smile

And my senses tell me there's somethin' missin'

So please let me stay for a little while



I want the whole world to know that we are one

We've got it together, one, baby, we're one

So why don't you gimme some time, baby

I know what you're thinkin' that I'm playin'

But all I'm sayin'



'Cause I wouldn't hurt you for the world, I'm serious

Gimme some time, baby, gimme some time, baby

Gimme some time, baby, gimme some time, baby

Gimme some time, baby, gimme some time, baby



Gimme some time, baby, gimme some time, baby

Gimme some time, baby, gimme some time, baby

Gimme some time, baby, gimme some time, baby
