Babyface
I Need A Love Song
[Verse 1]
Back in the day when I was younger
I fell in love 'bout every summer
And I would be calling up the radio
To dedicate my favorite song to her
And I sung along with everything
The words in the song, they spoke to me
Now I need to know, where did the music go?
'Cause my heart is crying out
[Chorus]
I need a love song about now
Don't need no ringtone songs now
Please tell the DJ "slow it down"
I wanna think about my baby now
I want a old school type of slow jam
You know the kind where they used to romance
When Luther used to sing like "baby"
And Michael made the world go crazy
I need a 12 Play, two step, Kelly kind of record (Oh, oh)
I need a love song right now
(C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon) Ooh yeah (C'mon, c'mon, c'mon)
[Verse 2]
Back in the day when I got older
The music in me had taken over
So I wrote the songs that made the lovers dance
Like "I'll Make Love" and "Breathe Again"
Now I wanna know, where love has been
It's just not the same as it was back then
And the world needs to fall in love again
'Cause my heart is crying out
[Chorus]
I need a love song about now
Don't need no ringtone songs now
Please tell the DJ "slow it down"
I wanna think about my baby now
I want a old school type of slow jam
You know the kind where they used to romance
When Luther used to sing like "baby"
And Michael made the world go crazy
I need a 12 Play, two step, Kelly kind of record (Oh, oh)
I need a love song right now
[Bridge]
Remember when we used to slow grind
And everybody used to Electric Slide
We'd be partying the whole night (Whole night)
And then we took it home (Oh baby)
Rock the boat to the radio (Oh)
Don't ya know, I miss it all right now
'Cause my heart is crying out, oh
[Chorus]
I need a love song about now
Don't need no ringtone songs now
Please tell the DJ "slow it down"
I wanna think about my baby now
I want a old school type of slow jam
You know the kind where they used to romance
When Luther used to sing like "baby"
And Michael made the world go crazy
I need a 12 Play, two step, Kelly kind of record (Oh, oh)
I need a love song right now
I need a love song about now
Don't need no ringtone songs now
Please tell the DJ "slow it down"
I wanna think about my baby now
I want a old school type of slow jam
You know the kind where they used to romance
When Luther used to sing like "baby"
And Michael made the world go crazy
I need a 12 Play, two step, Kelly kind of record (Oh, oh)
I need a love song right now
[Outro]
I need a love song
Please tell the DJ "slow it down"
I need a love song
Please tell the DJ "slow it down"
I need a love song
