The O'Jays

The O'Jays are an American R&B group from Canton, Ohio, formed in 1958 and originally consisting of Eddie Levert (born June 16, 1942), Walter Williams (born August 25, 1943), William Powell (January 20, 1942 – May 26, 1977), Bobby Massey and Bill Isles.

Um, mmm, It's something that I'm missing
Um, mmm, It's something that you got
Um, mmm, not to go to a sleep about a dream, yeah, baby

[Chorus:]
What's stopping you from loving me
When I can give you all you need
What's stopping you from loving me
You must be sleepin'
Still out there creepin'
Everything you do, you know I like
Girl it ain't cool saying OK and then saying stop
Girl, I'll be patient, I'll even change my ways
Looking for your love is like walking through a maze

[Chorus]

Is it the way I talk that you don't like
Baby I'll change and I'll drive to make it right
How could you give somebody else the time of day
When he won't show you love, not in my special way

[Chorus]

I'm just telling you what I think is best
Girl, I won't trouble you, no, not like the rest
Don't you tell me yes, and then tell me no
Girl, I can take the hint if I gotta go

[Chorus x2]

Oh I, Oh I, Oh I
I could be want you want, babe
Oh I, Oh I, Oh I
Come on baby let's talk, baby
Oh I, Oh I, Oh I
Don't you want to give it up now
Oh I, Oh I, Oh I
How I want it, how I need it

[Chorus]
