You Give Good Love
Whitney Houston · Whitney Houston
Always on the run
I've been looking for someone
[Chorus:]
Now you're here like you've been before
And you know just what I need
It took some time for me to see
That you give good love to me baby
So good, take this heart mine into your hands
You give good love to me
Never too much
Baby you give good love
Never stopping, I was always searching
For that perfect love
The kind that girls like me dream of
[chorus]
Now I, I can't stop looking around
It's not, what this loves all about
Our love is here to stay, stay
[chorus]
